Food, Sex and Graduate life.

I feel sorry for my apartment-mate who is so bloody insistent on eating "proper food" thrice a day at any cost! He wants the world to come to a stand still and all activities halted for him to eat proper food. Neither an assignment nor an exam nor ill-health, nothing can deter him from cooking and eating a fulsome meal. Perfect!!!! But then unfortunately the concept of cooking turns seems like a big hindrance, impeding his desire. Exacerbating this he happens to live with me!!!


Thinking of which a stupid thought popped from no where.

Food and Sex seem to be analogous. They share the following.

• Take it when it is there, when you get it and you like it.

• Do not whine when you dont get it.

• Complain less when it is not good.

• Over indulgence is not “very bad” for you may be incapable of that 20 years hence.

• Give it due compliment and credit when it is good and also when it is not.

• It is good to be choosy and weary and to be comfortable about the source.

• Tone your attitude towards it- adultish.

• It helps you perform better in your graduate life, that is marked with excitements, frustrations, long patient waits, failures, success.....It alleviates the general mood, improving your efficiency.

• In general try and take just enough to keep it going and never let it consume you.

they had 2 words for me

It ahs been a patient wait and it has realized its worth. Resisting all the shit that the circumstances had to offer, exploiting my helplessness, exacerbated by an inappropriate attitude and approach, it could not have been worse. Or so it seems, plummeting you to abysmally low levels in terms of confidence, willpower and mood.

But then they had two words for me. I could say it with conviction-“neither the booze, nor the grass, nor the hash, nor the fag, nor the bang has catapulted me to such a high-an exalted state of existence. I have got high the right way.
They had two words for me- Research Assistant.

Its a wild world out there, the only way out of it is to learn it the hard way.
