How does it feel to be hunted? Does it feel like someone’s watching you all the time? Do the hairs at the back of your neck stand up, as if in reception to somebody’s cruel intentions? Does it feel like you are being drawn into a trap, where you feel powerless?How does it feel to be constantly on the edge? That razor-sharp edge, where your whole body is taut, muscles strained, senses finely tuned

The following would be my first “serious” attempt at writing a short story.If Only…….“Something interesting happened today eh?” enquired the professor, seeing the Principal’s smiling face.The Principal replied, “Well it’s just that I met this young man outside the theatre, the bohemian kind you see a lot in Vienna these days, the result of the lax and pathetic royal policies……”“Anyways” he

Expressing your feelings, getting them out of your head, through your mouth into other people's ears or free into the ether is very de-stressing.Blogging helps too, blogging actually helps a lot. Just sign in to blogger.com or typepad.com, click new post and vent your feelings through the keyboard, and voila you are already feeling relaxed. But hey, when I say feelings or emotions, I mean both of

The night was clear and was revealing itself in its full glory. Parisian nights always put up their best displays, showing off their wares to hundreds and thousands of hungry customers who gaze at the open splendors of the Champs Elysees or the Arc De Triomphe or pray at the Notre Dame or those who sit on the road side cafes at Rue de Rennes enjoying their croissants, blissfully unaware of the

Well 25 years hence, there won't be a film called " Mumbai - Based on 7/11" (I hate using 7/11, a mindless and spineless and blind adaption by Mr. Sardesai) like a " Munich " not because we will still lack a director of the caliber of Spielberg, but because there won't be a story of revenge. Atleast Golda Meir had dossiers on the culprits in front of her immediately after the massacre thanks to

The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet.Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is

I dread to post this. For me writing has always been an activity where I unload my mind. One could call it a sort of a "Pensieve", where all those thoughts which matter me are put down. But with putting them down, I tend to lose the intensity behind the thought, the passion with which they had initially created the furor in my brain is lost. I can't comprehend it, it sort of becomes a "task done"

If one were to ask me who my favourite historical figure is, I would immediately say it would be Herr Adolf Hitler.Ok hold on. Don't start judging me yet. I admire that man a lot but that does not mean I subscribe to his ideals. I found his "Lebensraum" ideology to be ridiculous, his Anti-Semitic views (which I feel are so misplaced and ironic in a way considering he himself was of Jewish origin)

I have been staring at the screen continuously for the past 10 minutes. Just staring. Nothing else except making feeble attempts to give the mouse nudges because even the monitor seems to be giving up on me and is bringing on the screensaver.God I hate my screensaver, but for some imperceptible reason I haven't changed it for the last 2 years.I am just looking at the monitor.

I love driving. There is nothing in this world which can stop me from enjoying driving except the horrible horrible roads in this city.It's not because its difficult to drive a car on these roads, it is because I can apathise with my car. I can understand the conditions under which it is asked to ferry people around.Before taking her out of the car-park, I always say this to my car :- " Listen
