Art ? or A Bad Habit?

I have seen clothes piling up on a chair... There have been countless occasions when I was reprimanded for not keeping my wardrobe tidy. I always thought keeping the wardrobe clean was one of the challenging jobs. Believe me, I know a few others who agree with me in this case. I was reading Know your English in The Hindu newspaper. “Chairdrobe: a new word in urban dictionary meaning the art of piling clothes on a chair to be used in place of a closet or dresser.” Call it an art or a bad habit, a new word has entered my vocabulary.

He not only answered the questions beautifully but they were also filled with ideas, knowledge from the vedas and the mythological stories, his own life experiences, and last but never the least his timing of humor was incredible. The eight pru...

Yawn… Yawn…Yawn...

Yawning at all inappropriate times!!! Is yawning considered a sign of boredom? Does it happen out of exhaustion? I am not sure, but yawning in the class is something I cannot resist. Sometimes it happens and the guy at the far end smiles with sympathetic eyes, probably thinking I am sleep deprived. Other occasions, my bench mate and I enjoy it with almost silent giggles. We proudly take turns yawning. Then there are those unfriendly looks from students saying, "Why don't you concentrate in the class?" I admire those who yawn in the class without much botheration and think it is some kind of class activity. While some classes are very interactive, I seldom speak in other classes. Proven to be contagious by psychological theories, it is good to see your fellow class mates yawning. The most inappropriate time is when the instructor catches you yawning and the most hilarious moment is when you catch your instructor yawning. I thank them for being a source of inspiratio...

Your musings or soulful depictions Short melodies and science fictions Element of love in your verse Or thoughtless question that's terse I owe this ode to BWG Your endless swearing or equations Some videos amidst the chaos Some puzzles and some reviews A different view that sizzles I owe this ode to Mitti and Sarsiz Your ramblings and signboards, Offerings striking all right chords With a unique sophisticated diction Abstract thoughts told with conviction I owe this ode to Sleepyface, Njugu and The Freak.
