There is one fact that I don’t deny: My brain is most productive during exams. During that golden time, ask me to write as many poems, stories, draw pictures, mend handicrafts, make paper models, creatively waste time on the internet or my netbook, and I am ready to do it. But there is, after all, a limit to my genius. Ask me to study, and … well, that’s the limit of my mental capability.

These days I am suffering from a disease called exams. It is a chronic disease and it comes every year around winter (when I would rather be in bed, and not outside) and spring (when I would rather be outside, and not in bed). This year it is hitting a little too close to my heart, because I, the weary warrior, am not quite recovered from previous wounds.

My public statement, as stated above, is time and again proved. Most of my blog posts are written around exams. So these days I am looking for something to dedicate my not-so-but-still creative juices to. Any ideas? I am googling stuff and joining websites.

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you guys. I just installed an OS in my computer for the first time! And all without any body’s help (the internet doesn’t count)! I am now using Ubuntu along with the Windows 7 that my netbook came with. Come Ubuntu, and I am already losing my patience with W7. This post is being written from Ubuntu.

My sister has already (sarcastically) commented that my exams must be ending, although today was third exam. Pray for me.

These days, all I care for is to bring a positive change in my country. But again, at loss at what to do. We can blog and tweet all about it, but do our words matter?

Food for thought.
