The Night Sky

The night sky is an absolute delight.Looking up at the stars,the moon,the clouds spreading out like waves,I feel as if they are all alive.The stars seem to be talking to each other,or are all of them quietly admiring the beauty of the moon?

The moon peeps through the clouds,spreads its tranquil light.I can go on staring at it.The pale yellowish glow,the soft moonlight feels like a soothing hand on my shoulder.

But the beauty is not just because of the moon.The night sky would be incomplete without the stars.

Is that a stream flowing through the heavens? A sparkling stream.The millions of stars up there,are like the innumerable droplets of water that make up the stream.They are the life of the stream.They give it a direction,a purpose.But what is the destination of this starry stream? Where does it originate? What is its purpose? Is it trying to help us forget our worries,carrying us along in its flow, drowning us completely in its beauty?

I don't know.But then,do the answers matter at all?

Long time...

Ha! So here I am writing a post after a very long time. Lots of things have happened, here is a list of the most prominent events:

1)Screwed up the exams real bad
2)Finally got the LAN card changed
3)Booked tickets to go home and then cancelled the plan
4)Got myself a Bloglines account, now I spend only a limited amount of time reading blogs
5)Got the movie portal working
6)Wrote down a pretty exhaustive list of the movies we have seen and made some significant additions to it in the past week.
7)Finally the database of chess games in xml format is ready.Now some proper work on the project can be started
8)Got a wordpress invitation. We'll probably shift The Band of Bloggers to wordpress, this blog won't be moved. I'm too lazy to do it.
9)Had my first fag.It wasn't a pleasant experience at all.I can't understand why people get addicted to it? I'm done with it.
10)Read almost all the archives on Sidin's blog.If you are wasting time,reading my blog,then stop it.Read his blog.
11)Did something which I had never thought I could do.I have been in a pretty good mood ever since.Obviously I'm not writing exactly what I did.

Another crappy post.I should write a proper post which is not a list.
