And the World Begins, again!
Studying Musicology is really good fun, and he relates it to English and Tamil literature. I will be going over there, tomorrow. This is because, this semester is filled with two of my favourite words in English language: diverse and random. I have found some brilliant people to write for it and if you are reading this, and have a story for it, please do email it to us at chaikadai@gmail.com True, true, I am putting out the Chai Kadai label wherever I can, and I have figured that is probably the best way to get people to speak: Tell them, they can!
Otherwise, I have been experimenting with a little bit of writing here and there. The Merchant of Venice and a Nick Adams story, are some of the things I am really looking forward to delving my head in. I am no longer interested in creating art as such, I am only interested in creating myself and for that I am going to let a lot of things flow.
Academically, this Semester sees a small bit of pride for me in the hidden pockets. This is quite exciting to look forward to. She thinks, we will be able to handle it. This course really inspires me to put on the sruthi box and practice in the evenings. But, one has to surely understand, at least after an age, that they are an equal functional unit responsible for the balance of the institutional processes. He concluded by saying that Sound and Time are the two bodily elements of Music, that define and create it.
The only sad news, I am yet to get over, is that this is the last semester of General English. Let’s see how that goes.
Overall, a good set of months that have started well. And then, I continue with Elements of Sociology, and I quite enjoy writing that paper. My French teacher called some of us and told us there are some students in Sacred Hearts Matriculation, Shozhinganallur, who need French classes. I really love studying English Litt and there goes my last chance of doing it in college. History of India - III (Freedom Movement: 1758 to 1947) has a brilliant Professor handling the paper. I have refilled my Rotring pen and hope to see some of the ink flowing on to paper somehow. Whatever works and whatever doesn’t, this year I am going to have my best Christmas and New Year, for I’ve been deserving one for a very long time.
Goo goo night! As an institution, anything from family to college could get dysfunctional at all points of time. However, we’ve also made some changes in class patterns and I might end up doing a lot of Tamil translation this semester.
Side by side, Chai Kadai is going really great for me. For one, I score well, and two, it has some interesting reading material to go with the topics.
Now, probably, the best of all, and a paper I never expected to be studying is Music and Literature. Every unit is functional and responsible, though some may be replaceable.
Here is why I have suddenly found some interest in writing proactively about college. As usual, I have an assignment in head and that is why a blog post is flowing so easily. I hope to save up a bit and travel this December. Another bearded old man said college is going to be a compulsory part of my life, inevitable and necessary. I chose to listen to the bearded man, as I have for the past 19 years and I needn’t change that now.
Fourth Semester paints a new red mark on the college board, and quietly managed to enlighten me about the process. It has been great fun sitting in that room that smells like a studio (which always proves to be nostalgic and pleasant). Today, he was talking to us about Music as an Art form, and then as a temporal Art form. It has been good so far, and I only hope this is one of the best semesters in that regard. 
He walked into our class on the first day and has been delivering wonderful lectures on Periodization of History and Developing Trends in India during the 18th Century. Imagine an ecosystem, and draw an intricate web of the all the species, then you will know every system is purely the same. The old man stood in front of me and told me college is not good for such minds as mine. I hope to finish NanoWriMo somehow. First of all, one of the few Professors with a great command over English, moreover, he is a person who demands you to read and work. A nice professor, and new things to learn. This is why I am in college.
Introduction to Archaeology and Museology is good fun, because I never really expected to be learning this.
