Boon or Bane?

Oh! It is that time of the month again – the same story month after month after month. The cramps are no doubt most dreaded and can be extremely painful. Girls resort to various measures for relief, the most common being painkillers, though they should actually be avoided. Home remedies are the best way to deal with these cramps. Anyway I hope to write about this in a separate post sometime later.

I so hate these mood swings – irritation for no reason at all; stress, anxiety and more irritation. It seems to be indicating the arrival of the deadly monster. The weather is as it is chilly, and the fact that I am by myself at home is only adding up to the irritability quotient. Just don’t feel like doing anything. Have an exam on Sunday and ideally I should be studying or at least solving test papers. But like I said, just don’t want to do anything. So I rather kill time doing nothing, yes absolutely nothing.

Amidst this petulance, there is a particular thing that has somehow managed to enthrall me. It is the title track of Naseeruddin Shah’s directorial debut – ‘Yun Hota Toh Kya Hota’ which has been playing on a loop since afternoon. Thanks Vibhor for sending it across at the right time :)

Hey Archana thanks! Well this was more of a personal vent out. Hope to write a generalised detail post soon. Me and a friend of mine, Nicky are doing a lot of research on this topic of late. It would be interesting to capture various viewpoints on this!

Boon I would call it too dearie! Its only during THAT phase that you tend to get so annoyed with this whole process that you cant help swearing.

To quote you (from your blog)..."How bad it is, seems as if world has come to an end... I just keep asking my mum while groaning in pain who the hell is responsible for this damned thing. Just give out name an ill see to it"

The mood swings indeed add to the roller-coaster ride of LIFE!

No comments on Yun Hota Toh Kya Hota ;) It is still playing by the way!
