Woodchuck Chronicles

"How much wood would a Woodchuck chuck if a Woodchuck could chuck wood?"

After being ridiculed in such a degrading manner, the Woodchucks put together a committee to take down all the likes of those who refuse to worship them. It all started off when the Woodchucks realized that they were the only animals who weren't worshiped, and to protest against the unfairness of the world, they asked the Animal Rights Foundation (ARF) to fund bazookas so that they could kill off their predators. Little did the ARF know that not only would these bazookas be used for killing off predators, but also for forcing the human race to worship these little critters. The Woodchucks have decided that the only to bring salvation to their species is to take over the world. So humans, now who's the hunted?

The First Commandment: "Thou shalt be good else the wrath of the Woodchucks shall fall upon thee..."

Oh Woodchuck Gods, I pray thee bestow thy love and forgiveness upon us...and allow us to destroy those who deny thy existence.

Oh Woodchuck Gods, look upon us with kindness and place us not on the wrong, but the right side of thy bazookas, and allow us to assist thee in thy quest to take over the world.

Achuck

A Thought

As I try to write a short story for creative writing class, I can't help but remember a tiny village I visited in the summer - Gangapur. It was an enchanting little village, with its primary claim to fame being a 1000 year old Chennakesava temple. It was this temple that took my team there, but the drive through brought out some things quite striking. The village seems cut off from the outside world in spite of a semi-famous temple and being just five kilometers from a town. Just five kilometers make all the difference... from concrete to huts made of mud and chilies drying on the ground, from children waving at a foreign 'car' to a temple at the centre of the village, the calm at all times, and the little things that make people smile. Its all surreal.

Lost In Allahabad

Ah, I absolutely love blogging, even if I have nothing to talk about as such. I'm not having classes right now because our teachers have left us off due to Diwali. I did something really smart today (note the sarcasm), I got lost.

I happily went out alone as I was getting bored and I didn't want to eat today's mess food, and since I had no company, I went alone. On the way back, the rickshaw guy suddenly stopped and started asking me for double the amount he had first stated. This kind of pissed me off, so I got off the rickshaw and decided to find another one, execpt I started walking in the wrong direction thinking all roads have to meet some place or the other.

I then ran into another rickshaw, and settled the money with him, and was on my way. I had no idea that he didn't know how to take me to the hostel, and he himself didn't speak up about that. We came to a fork in the road, and I told him where to go, but he said he'll go the other way, and like an idiot, I agreed, thinking again that all roads have to meet somewhere. After about five minutes, I thought I had been on that road before, so I didn't say anything about how I think he's going the wrong way.

After some more time, I realized that I hadn't been on that road after all and I told him to ask for directions, but he kept putting it off, until finally he himself realized that I really didn't know how to get to my destination. Even then, he didn't ask properly, and I still felt hopelessly lost. Finally with great difficulty I pinpointed my exact location (luckily I have a good memory, I've been to this medical store only once before a long time ago, and I recognized it) and was on my way back to the hostel. Luckily the guy was decent enough not to ask me for extra money.

Boy was it an experience or what! Luckily it wasn't already dark, else I would've been in a lot of trouble. I saw parts of Allahabad that I never intended to see, and I actually enjoyed it upto a certain extent, though I would still prefer not getting lost. I think I'm better off not traveling alone in the future. I should really stop trying to be so smart.

State of Mind

When you walk down that road, and through that old house.

When you see that great tree, and the old, low branch.

When you walk out to it, to swing like old times.

When you walk right through it and fall to the ground.

When you get up and smile, and see there’s no tree.

When you retrace your steps, and find a great crowd.

When you turn around and whisper to me.

When I don’t exist and you never frown.

You know you’re insane, but maybe you’re wrong.

Begin again...

Its nearing the end of another another semester, another year and what better way to celebrate it than another blog!

So, I'm an indecisive person. You should know that. I just can't decide on what to put in this post. And, I end up with nothing.
