It's been three days now that I quit facebook, and I know how these days have passed. Not that I actually quit facebook, their sly policy of keeping safe everyone's network so they can return back keeps everyone on their feet. No. What I am talking about is a simple test of restrain. A restrain from telling your secrets to the world. Out loud. No bounds. And even if I think I "quit" I haven't been able to stop myself from posting my statuses. If not facebook, then twitter! I've tweeted lots in the last three days. Talk about restrain! :).
Leaving fb actually did good for me. And when I say "only I know how I passed these three days", I mean "how WELL I passed these three days." I've been catching up on my blog subscription, listening to a lot of better songs, and have watched three movies with such good critical reviews, they actually seemed intimidating before I actually got to watch them ( I had them in my laptop for over three months now). One was To kill a mocking bird, which it is a world known fact that its a marvelous movie. Other was One flew over the cuckoo's nest. Now it does seem to be a good movie per se, but as an adaptation of a book, I don't think it does justice to the book. (from what i've gathered, the book has a lot more than what the movie showed, for instance, Chief was a schizophrenic. That means a lot different from what the movie made me believe.) Of course, I am not one to judge, not untill I've read the book perhaps. And It might be a long time till then! Next on my list is Atlas Shrugged!! ( The name gives me chills!!)
Did I mention how much time I've gained off facebook? I think I did. And Oh, I also mentioned about the blogs. There is one specific that I really like. Its by an Army wife. Not the patriotic kind of blog, just a really fun filled, Murphy's law adhering piece on daily life! Its called 3 bedroom bungalow, and the link is: http://3bedroombungalow.blogspot.com/. Her recent posts have been really gripping. Going to Germany with no planning, then calling someone up from UK to pick you up and driving the way back there! Don't try it yourself, this stuff is just for reading :). And then there is the Delhiwala, which has such a good collection of pictures, you can gorge upon it as greedily as you like, it is entertaining as hell! The link is http://www.thedelhiwalla.com/, If you cannot get it from my subscriptions.
That is not all. I even completed a few assignments on time, got time to read on a few more lectures, and catch on with my academics. Its just that the stuff is really boring to write about, and you really don't wish to tell such things to people. It sounds weird!
To tell the truth, I even considered to do something on the like of the Julie-Julia project. Not with the cooking ofcourse, bit maybe with the songs, or with drumming, I don't know. I just spent too much time thinking about it, and then decided it was just me going overboard, so I left it. But it would have been nice to do something like that. Really nice.
So all in all, this whole things turned out pretty well for me. Next up on my to-do list is to complete a story I started long ago. Lets see how that works out!

best of luck for the story. however, the blog seems a bit disconnected types. ofcourse, you might have written it casually.. but the tone does not appeal. try and work on that.
