Blah.
In a word, this is pretty much how I'm feeling these days. Nothing exciting going on, not much to do and being almost bedriddenly sick doesn't help. Other than the few (ok, not so few) TV shows that I've been watching (read: glued myself to, to the point that I will yell at anyone who dares call me during one of the shows I am watching - sorry Mom), there's not much else to do and I feel myself slipping in a serious case of the Blahs. Which, I must warn you, is much more grave than having the case of the "Meh's" (of which, some will remember, I suffered during the Christmas holidays).
I should just blame the blistering winter weather. Everyone else seems to do it. Or maybe I should blame the weather guy on TV for reminding me every evening of what the forecast will be like for the next couple days ahead.
"Why don't you just stop watching the weather on TV if it makes you 'blah'"
...Yes, a possible solution, I suppose, but then I won't know what the weather is like, would I? Now what do you have to say Smarty Pants?

I used to be down with the whole pop culture scene. I knew where Sienna Miller ate last weekend, who wore the fab Oscar de la Renta dress to the latest movie premiere and which starlet just broke up with her latest beau and was on the rebound. Heck, I even used to watch the boring award shows (Golden Globes, AMA's, MTV, Grammy etc). But then I just stopped, cold turkey. I thought only a gossip-patch would be able to wean me off that gooey stuff and help me overcome my dependency. But maybe I just grew up overnight? I didn't even know the Grammy's were coming up until I logged into my daily news RSS feed and noticed the headlines that were announcing winners. I still listen to music and watch movies, but I've just lost whatever it is held my interest in the everyday doing's of the stars.
"I think you just got a life..ha ha ha...um, ha?"
No, I think I realized that I was wasting my time on the flittering of insignificant people who are the very essence of what is wrong with our media and youth. Rather than being focused on political and social issues, we're worried about the designer bag BritJessParNicLindSienKat were seen with. I realized I should get back into reading more books, taking up a more active lifestyle, and focus on growing into a more responsible human being.
That, and I accidentally deleted many of my gossip-blog bookmarks and can't be bothered to remember them. Still...it counts.

AKA says:
Corporate law? No, probably not, I don't think it's for me. I thinking towards either international law or alternative dispute resolution. Both seem pretty interesting from what I've looked up.

and about feeling blah, don't worry about it! everyone goes through periods like that...eventually you'll get sick of feeling that way and you'll just snap out of it :)
Leibniz: Thanks for the suggestion :) I used to read quite a bit, but then school got in the way and I slowly stopped. But I do want to start picking up the habit again. Anything that you would recommend?
Confused, Single..: You're right, it is the younger generation (stress on the youngER, since we're not that old...yet). And I hope I snap out of it soon..!
I have younger cousins who speak/type/irritate the life out of me like that as well...but hopefully they will grow out of it. They way I grew out of saying like, omg, totally...
We are trying our best to gather as much as possbile (I mean the sound and the fury, show and tell, look and feel of our true colors).
Push, pull or do whatever to bring more people join the event of uniting Hyderabadi Bloggers.
Best, MT and the Team of Hyderabadiz
See you at the roll call!
Don't worry about the Blahs; it happens to everyone. You'll snap out of it before you know it.
Alternatively you can read
HAHAHA! Hyderabadiz! I'm so joining!
HAHAHAHAHA!
Ruby: my thing was "omg really?" lol
Sumera: I still don't believe it :)
Hyderabadiz: I know only a few, but I'll spread the word as best I can!
Dummy: I can't tell you how long it takes me to decipher what this person and a couple other I know write.
SM: It's slowly starting to wear off now. I think it may have just been not seeing any sunlight for so many months..!
Leibniz: Thank you so much for the recommendations :) I've read Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment" and funny enough I've had War and Peace for such a long time but haven't read it yet. I'll have to go hunt for it.
Roohi: Have I told you how adorable you are? lol. You're special no matter what visitor # you are ;)
