About Me

My photo
Hello there. I am a research scholar with a Ph.D in biology from the National Centre for Biological Sciences, TIFR, Bangalore, India. Passionate about science, I never cease to be amazed by the wonders in the world of chemistry and living matter. Learning new skills, cultivating new hobbies and exploring is what I do to keep the freshness alive and bring in excitement to my otherwise mundane lifestyle. I believe in living life by my own rules because I alone know what it is like to be me.

Golden Days. Are They Over Yet?

Gone are those days
when I used to paint my imagination.
Now all I do is to draw dissection diagrams.
Gone are those days
when I used to pick up an innocent fight
Now all I do is to chill
Gone are those days
when I used to wait for enjoying in the school bus
Now the auto awaits to take me alone
Gone are those days
when it was mandatory to fold the hair up
Now all we do is let the hair loose
Gone are those days
when our legs used to groan under our weights
during the school assembly
Now there's no such thing as a college assembly
Gone are those days
when I used to dread my graduation
Now the graduation day is a few months away
Man! Wish I had a time machine
so that I could rewind the old school times
I ask myself
" Are the golden days really over?"
For I think not yet!
