There's a lot of fun and thrill in leading a messy life... Going neck-deep into trouble, learning for exams in the last minute, finishing assignments in the nick of time(or even after it!), just walking or jogging to a strange, unexplored place with no map or phone or even a watch (oh yeah, I do that often!).....
I love organising..... my thoughts, my things, my schedule, any little programs.... So much that I let them mess up properly first and then try to sort through the mess.... I love the drastic change it brings... I'd do it again and again just to feel the 'relief' it brings at the end...;)
I'd litter my room for weeks- not bother to clean it up despite protests from my parents (before) or my room-mates(now). And then I'd spend a whole day turning the trash out. Voila! - it's tidier than anyone could ever have imagined it could be!
I'd hog myself up for days - with no exercise at all. I'd wake up late, laze around feeling dull and out of focus for a week. And then I'd wake up early one morning, work out, sweat the laziness out of me and run out of the house, all charged up to face the day!
I'd fight with someone... Bring complex thoughts into my head... Make a mess of their feelings and mine... And then pop! goes something in my head. A phone call/a few words/ a gift - I'd do whatever I can to make up and it's all happy again....
You'd be mistaken if you think that to be unstable(!), wavering.... Looking back on my life, I think I'm steady with the changes...;)... To be more clear, little changes take me off the track but I am within the control limits - I'm back on the track soon.... The resulting graph is lovely, wiggly instead of the boring,straight one or the drastic,curved one.... It makes life more interesting!
:) Nice..Pretty much similar to the way i have been living :P Except for tidying up my room..My mom is the one who finally does it :P Law of entropy is proved here again..it is spontaneous to proceed from an ordered to a disordered fashion ;) Jumping back to track gives a little sense of accomplishment.. :)
ReplyDeletethe messy room part is sooooo true for me.. haha.. my room mate doesnt say anything but I feel bad cause he really keeps the apartment clean.. hahaha.. good post though ;)
ReplyDeletei'll just say you are fighting a lost battle... once it is messy just let it be.... do not clean it... makes no sense....
ReplyDeleteas shalini mentioned the second law which states entropy always increses.... so any fight to bring back order is pointless!
Hey, I know this is really a long time after. But I was reading this and remembered your comment: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negentropy. "The physical is inherently entropic, giving off energy in ever more disorderly ways. The metaphysical is antientropic, methodically marshalling energy. Life is antientropic." - R. Buckminster Fuller
Delete@Brat : Now that's very pessimistic ;)
