I've crossed all hurdles but one

Sweated and strained to perform

But there's no time to have fun

'Coz this is just the calm before the storm

I had my very last sessional exam for M. Sc. today and did pretty well too.. It feels so great to have gotten rid of sessional exams forever :) But like I said, its not time to relax yet (Though my beloved and I did go out for a nice lunch and a scary (don't ask me why :)) movie after the exam). The final hangs like a naked sword over my head and I shall not be able to sleep in peace till that's over and done with..

Time, that beautiful jewel

A drop of water

Poised at the very tip of a leaf

Holding within it frozen

A prism of memories

Time is one thing I haven't had to spare for quite some time now and most likely, will not have for the next couple of months. Since my last post, I've been busy completing my records, preparing for a seminar and a class that I was supposed to take for students of DMLT. The seminar was very well appreciated by the lecturers, my classmates and juniors alike. I was able to experience that feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction after a really long time.

But that feeling was nothing compared to what I felt when my beloved appreciated my (very limited) culinary skills :) My beloved and I spent the most glorious two days together this weekend. I wish we would never have to be apart.

Is it better to have experienced something so good, if only so fleetingly? Or is it better to not have known pleasure, so that you will not have to feel the pain?

Could I make you stay

Forever with me?

Never go beyond this day

Make it last an eternity?

Could I make that smile play

On your lips so sweetly?

And your eyes sparkle always

Just for me, Bobby?
