Wake-up Call

A question that has been bothering me lately is - What am I? These days, I have been driven to wonder what kind of a person I really am…a sort of a self-analysis thingie you could say.

I mean I don’t really understand some of the things that I do - like writing this blog for instance.. or wasting my time day by day without the slightest trace of guilt. Everyday I continue to engage in worthless trivial activities like watching T.V, surfing the net, looking out the window for hours, sleeping when i’m not even sleepy and things like that. But recently I’ve had another one of these wake-up calls which tells me to..well, wake-up. And do something worthwhile in my life. I haven’t reacted to the call yet but it’s sinking in slowly. See the thing with a wake-up call is that you can choose when to listen to it, unlike the more popular nature’s call. Everyone has a wake-up call.(and i don’t mean your alarm clock so don’t look at it like that) Yes, you too. It’s always there but it hits different people at different times.

My wake-up call? It’s been there forever and I’ve known it ever since I came into being. Let’s call my call the WUC. Me and WUC have spoken a lot in the past. But I’m hard to convince so my WUC never bothered me much. Like the time when my call told me it’s time to learn to walk, I refused cuz i was more into talking. So I chose to talk before I started walking…

I have always called the shots and had almost forgotten my WUC existed. My WUC is back with a bang though and tells me to listen, learn and inspire change. It’s about time I listened. Whether I will or not, I don’t really know. The truth is I’m only 16 and don’t want to do anything worthwhile. So guess what?? I’m not listening yet. Maybe when I’m 18. YES. Maybe I’ll watch less T.V and do my exams well for now, just to please WUC. This blogging thing is fun! I made up my mind in the course of just writing here. Awesome!

You’re probably thinking will this blogger ever write about something that matters to the world?? (assuming that some1’s actually reading this shit! and if you are, you need some serious self-analysis dude)

Now that i got that off my chest…I should be off to study for my exams. They’ll be here in about a week. Do you care? No. Who cares? No one. And no one is reading this blog. Still, I’ll be back.

WELCOME, WORLD!

Hello everyone,

In answer to the 100s of requests that have been pouring in from around the world urging me to start my blog…Wha..? What do you mean ‘No lying’? Oh all right. I’ll try to be more honest.

Considering it’s high time I created a blog of my own, because just about every Tom, Dick and Harry in the world has his own blog (no offence to all the Toms, Dicks and  Harry Potters), Here we are guys! THIS IS MY BLOG. Ranjita’s blog.

This is my online diary where I shall record all the random thoughts, ideas and questions that pop up in my mind. And the good news is that YOU are free to view them and let me know what you think about them! For those of you who are at this point asking me ‘Why the hell would I want to read the random crap running in your mind?’, I suggest you start your blog and store all these questions in there. This way you can pass on your ideas, view, frustrations and anger to the world and in turn become a more peaceful person. Release your frustrations and share your happiness.

Of course, that is not the only purpose of this blog. I have been told by a lot of people I know that I do not have what it takes to maintain a blog and update it regularly. Well, we’ll see! For someone who does nothing all day but watch T.V and go to college (?), I don’t think I should do too badly..
