Being Kool...

It has become a buzzword now a days.. Wherever you go. whtever you do.. however you do.. whenevr you meet someone.....this word seems to be flowing in the air always.... 'KOOL'. And these days, it has now become a fashion among guys to show(case) themselves cool... I am not among the exceptions...Sometimes I think what does 'cool' exactly mean?? If you go by dictionary definition, it means "Thanda". So, why someone needs to do so many weird things to be thanda.. Strange naa!!!! I am too sometimes baffled by this thought.



Though the definition in itself seems pretty simple.. but urban definition of this word has too many parameters and attributes assigned to it...Someone is cool; if one abuses very frankly almost about every relation which you can think of; if one is sporting new hairstyles almost every fortnight; if one is going to pubs with his piyakkar frens and boozing; if one smokes his heart out in the public without even knwing what one is doing; if one is wearing a good,not necessarily expensive, stylish watch; if one is wearing googles inspite of the fact it is rainy outside;if one listens to English rock songs; if one discusses about new fast bikes and drives them at even faster speed; if one is dating a so-called sexy gal today and another tomorrow and would spend hours in after-midnite calls just to sort things out for the next day...... and this list goes on and on.....



I don't possess any of these virtues... Alas!!! I am not kool...And here I am... am I out of this world.. sort of alien. who can't keep himself in line with the current trend... Its a fact that I too wanted to do all this.... but couldn't. There are a few English songs like 'Words' and 'Summer of 69' which I can digest, but not much.. even tried to go out and have a nite out at disc.. but the only good thing happened that nite was I had a very good dinner with my friends after a long time..Dating with girls..Hmmmn.. Last time I felt for a girl ;was in my college when she solved a Maths sum faster than most of my male colleagues.. OMG...It was unnatural for a girl...

Sometimes I feel that I am being old.. Just 2.5 yrs ago..was a carefree lad wandering in college canteen and RD, bunking classes, night out with my PC running RON whole nite and then classes @ 8 AM half sleeping. Have I changed a lot in these 2.5 yrs??? Now, life looks a bit more disciplined.. but how can just 2 and a half yrs can change a person so much..But then yaa. I am older than those who are still living a carefree life in colleges... and its certainly no use trying to be younger any more....... Cant go against the laws of nature be it KOOL OR NOT!!!!!

So.. my blog caption reads... LET IT BE!!!!
