twenty four!

Turning 24, feeling 14!. Yes!. I might have grown up physically but I feel like a kid at heart. And I love it that way..

I still want to do something in life but don’t exactly know what to do.. I still want to play the whole day .. i just want to roam around on streets aimlessly with my sweet friends.. I just love watching movies on that b/w age old tv at my home (though I own a SONY now).. i love sitting on the last bench in the class (though i stand tall at the front now).. I love gossiping in the class even after repeated warnings from the teacher to not to do so.. (and i stand on the other side of the room now..) .. n i NOW miss the punishment after that.. (to hold one’s ears under the legs!, I didn’t like it that time).. I like it when teacher praises me by calling me a brilliant student (:P, sachchi.. sometimes they did!) and me smiling ear to ear after hearing that.. ..  I still want to be pampered by my mom for having food.. i still want to be shouted upon by my father for not studying, watching tv, wasting money.. i just love to fight with my cute little brother .. n i love it when my mom makes kheer for me every Sunday.. especially for me! n I know.. she loves it too!

But, today, as I enter into my 25^th year on this earth.. i feel that all those things which i used to love as a teenager are long gone..there are no friends to roam around with.. no classes to attend to.. and no classes to bunk..no more constraint on watching movies.. no more pampering for food.. and last but not the least.. no more kheer.. (its been ages LL)..

I guess i will have to accept that i am no more a kid..I have responsibilities now.. i need to take care of my parents.. my little brother..I need to take care of my future.. their future.. our future!. Now, I have taken birth into what they call “the real world”.. n you should be man enough to survive in this so called real world.. n I will.. I WILL be man.. a man of substance.. a man of honour..

So, on the 24^th b’day of mine.. I, Bhaskar Aggarwal, end the boy in myself.. n give birth to a man.!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Mr. BHASKAR!
