Millions of people die everyday, hungry of affection, attention or even recognition. The comfortably numb society is on a world take-over spree. The gravitational pull decreases everyday, every second. “blind” is the latest fashion trend- that people can’t see anyway. Entropy is a form of currency. Freedom is taboo, slavery’s pop. It’s a loss to both, the devil and angel. Exception and acceptance have parted ways. Hitler and Teresa are in disbelief and dismay. Peter keating is our new superhero. The earth is firm on its foundations, how I wish it would crumble. The chaos generates a low grade silence, that deafens beyond repair. Life is a chess game with the outcome same for both, if only it went to a penalty shootout. So have a good drown, as you go down……… All alone… dragged down by the stone.

What are we here for again? Moreover, where did that vision of whatever we are supposed to do go that we started updating and watching Google Talk messages? The society today is becoming weaker by the day. Weaker in the sense that we depend on each other more with every passing moment, and the depravation from human contact even for a couple of minutes is beginning to become a dark, scary prospect that nobody seems to want to explore. Whether its going together for classes, or to eat or to play a game or sport or finish an assignment, the world is being pulled, literally, to doing it with each other. Even in their most alone moments, people today are chatting on Gtalk or abusing each other on DC. I admit that my life and observations are limited to BITS-Pilani, Goa ONLY as of now, but isn’t the same applicable elsewhere too? We are getting more and more used to being in the comfort of other people (when a bit of introspection would reveal it is not a comfortable state of being at all).

<7even> Hello, ladies! I'm Soumyadeep aka 7even. I'm a straight-forward guy with a terrific sense of humour and a working pair of feet. I'm interested in attending the Salsa Workshop, but only if I have the company of a sweet charming lady - someone just like you. So, if you are interested, do PM me! An extremely abominable but true situation for some 1000 guys in campus (200 are going out with the 200 girls in campus, 500 dont care and 200 like each other). The lonelines and insecurity among the single (and fast getting desperate) guys just escalates every day, every sem, with seemingly no hope for gratification in the near future. Its on days like valentine's day, Salsa workshops and DJ nights when this hopelessness really goes overboard, and climaxes into depression, cynicism, envy or even pure hatred. They (we) are constantly eyeing the fifty odd girls (i wouldn't call them chicks/babes) in campus that are still single, having fancied EACH one of them. The
