Alright. Now for a proper post. The previous ones sounded like a school kid writing an essay about what he did for his summer vacations or something.
Well, the exams are over but I haven't exactly gotten real relief. Because of CET. Parents sure act weird, especially when it comes to academics. My father wants me to go for tuition which I abandoned a hundred million years ago (last August actually) and have already put it out of my mind. I thought I'll prepare for it on my own but nooooo he wants me to go all the way to that horribly depressing place and torture myself to no end. I mean, they have sample tests online too and I can manage those. I shouldn't even have joined the stupid thing in the first place. I mean, yeah Dad spent a lot of money on it, but alright fine. I'll return it someday man! Though I haven't told him that because if I did, I wouldn't be able to post anymore. You get the picture. Blood. Lots of blood. And warheads.
And both my parents want me to give Karnataka CET so I can stay with them for four years of engineering. I want to stay here, in Mumbai. To do that, I'll have to stay in a hostel and really slog but I'm so lazy, my parents think I won't be able to manage it. First thing, people: I don't even know if I want to do engineering! Second thing, who the hell cares? Mom is worried about me staying away from them, but that is the point people! I'm tired of staying with them. After a certain point, all teenagers want their own freedom and want to become independent enough to be able to live their own lives. I suppose, even if God appeared in front of them and told them to leave me alone, they wouldn't understand. Such is life, huh?
Plus, all their friends are telling them it'll be better for me to go there. Damn them! Who asked for your opinion anyway?
Moving on to more cheerful topics. I went out with two of my tuition friends yesterday. We went to Oxford first, where they had an 80% sale (probably on an old, unheard-of book, because I sure as hell didn't see any discount more than 30%) I bought Golem's Eye because that was the only book I was lacking in the Bartimeaus trilogy. Jonathan Stroud has a new book out too, I want to read that. Then, we went to Barista and had a fat, chocolate brownie (ymmm) and a tall frappe (each, silly). We were talking and laughing real loud and cracking silly jokes. No, we didn't care what other people said. Ha.
Then I went for Abracadabra night. The magician's english rocked (right). And we basically sat and did nothing till around 10 when the DJ session started. He was playing songs from the pre-historic age eg. Hips don't lie and Temperature. Pleeeease. But everyone else seemed to be enjoying themselves, so I and my friends just helped ourselves to some food and we hauled butt.
So that's what. I'll get back to watching Carcaptor Sakura and trying to tune out my mother breathing down my neck about cleaning my room. Shoo!!
