Moments

There are some moments that just take one's breath away; leaving the body incapable of any emotion, just a flighty, airy feeling of being one with the clouds for an instant.

Such is the power of photographs, bestowed with the ability to capture not just isolated moments, but emotions, experiences and nostalgia as well.

I - P - I pipeline

For those of you that haven't heard of it yet, India is contemplating using Iran as a supply of energy to meet rising demands. The plan involves building a pipeline that also runs through Pakistan (hence the 'P' in the title)

Seems strange to me that you would want to build a pipeline right through (apparent) terrorist country. Why give people with vested interests an opportunity to tamper with our energy supply?

But the US has added a further spin on things by saying that they want us to tap Central Asian sources for energy instead. This is where I found the info. They want us to take the pipeline through Afghanistan - much much safer, right?

In another piece of interesting news, found here the US says that they don't want "people to play politics with the Security Council", something that I feel they've been doing for a while now.

Hypocrites.

Rush

I lay in bed last night thinking about the years that lie ahead of me. Thinking of December when I would return home for a well-deserved vacation after six long months away.

By this time next year, I shall have completed two years of college, with two more to go. It will be two years since I completed the AISSCE and four since I completed ICSE.

Where did all the years go? I scarcely remember the time when in between. It feels as though the years have rushed by, leaving me in the dust. It's as though a huge part of my life has passed by with me as a mere spectator. It's sad to think that with every single passing day my earlier years get further and further away from me, until they're just a wisp of a memory somewhere in the corner of my mind.
