Lord, Don't Slow me Down...Finally, I am able to access the blogger site. See, I have been trying to blog for the last one month, but whenever I enter the 'Create Post' page, my IE just shuts off. Guess its gone, for now.. Bloody spywares..
Anihoo, its November. Bloody November, the one month this year that will stretch me to my inelastic limits. It is at this time, when I will have to turn to God, and seek Him for Guidance and Grace. So here goes..
God,
In some ways, I miss how things were this time last year. When my points of focus were quite simply my studies, my girl and myself. Life was just so much, simpler. I even had time for myself, and could even afford to hit the gym and stuff.
Then came the call in January. To work on an album, which quite simply, was too appealing not to miss. It was also during this time, that I probably started enjoying grooving to music even more, and learnt to appreciate my guitar even more. In a year, we can safely say that we had covered so much more ground than other bands with similar aspirations (with no disrespect at all to these talented bunch). I guess it is your Divine work, to put us where we are right now, and most definitely, we will strive forward to seize the day.
Add to our musical aspirations, is my academic work. Akhil was right at the beginning of the semester, this was gonna be the busiest sem to date. Quite honestly, I have lost count on the number of tutorials that I am lagging behind by, and the only way to catch up with work, would be mugging for an upcoming quiz. Argh, and now, with a week to spare to the exams, all I have is an organized mess of notes, tutorials and solutions on my desk. Haha, and to add stress, I have a gig coming up on the 25th. Thanks though, for the wonderful people who understand the constraints I am in, and have allowed me to play a bit part in this project.
Then, there is the girl. Haha, sometimes, I just feel that I am just so stretched that I haven't really managed to spend quality time with her (even if we meet in school, that is, if I go - usually if I ain't in school, I'm probably catching up on a tutorial or 2). I really do hope that once November is done, I can look forward to spending lots of time with her, at least before Jan, when I make my trip into the beyond.. =)
And there's Deepavali. I guess the only times I have celebrated Deepavali decently, were in 2001, 2003 and 2004. And yes, You guessed it right, 01 was my Promos year in JC, and 03 and 04 were my years in NS. So here I am facing the prospect, of celebrating my favorite festival at school, buried in 'Concrete' and 'Steel' Designs..
Nonetheless, God, I do pray for your Guidance and Grace, and take me through this tough period. And also for those who are sitting in a similar situation as yours truly..
Lord, Don't Slow me Down..
Much Love,
Karthik
