I woke up feeling so low I could have walked under a cockroach wearing a top hat (Wodehouse, I think). And then this happened.
I'd forgotten how much I loved biology when I studied it, and how many hours I used to spend glued to Animal Planet. I'd forgotten how much I loved my camera. I'd forgotten how beautifully my euphorbia plant flowers every winter, and I'd forgotten what a hornet looks like. Since my face was about ten inches from it when I took this, I'm glad I didn't remember.
But now I'm happy and listening to Nitin Sawhney. I could take on the Boards, an alien invasion and my neighbour's cranky dog all in one go. Photography always does this to me. And I know I'm blogging again - goes to show I have as much self-control as a herd of wildebeest on the Serengeti, I know - but I'm happy. In fact, to quote another one by Pelham Grenville, I feel so happy I could swallow a grape.

Do not listen to anyone,the boards are not important at all. I am sure it will all seem a joke one exam into it.
I hated Biology and all other parts of Science.
But that is a BRILLIANT picture!
And it's a lovely post too..
Even Wodehouse couldn't write this better. I enjoyed this so much, I think im going to read my old copy of summer lightning for the fifteenth time.
@ everyone: THANK YOU.
in particular:
@ panu: i know, i must. but which one to start with?
@ maximum boy: why the tears?
@ royal bengal tigress: =D
There's just too many things you're good at.
I envy thou.
:'(
@ m. boy: what rot *grin* please please go tell my folks that.
I love Pelham Grenville Wodehouse. Love him, love him, love him.
Love the post too. But you knew, right?
As for Maximim Boy, Mihir Sanghavi or whatever else, he's reputed for shedding online tears on less provocation than a whisper from an ant. But, this is one occasion where I agree with him.
@ death on: isn't he amazing? i mean wodehouse, not maximum boy.
although his capacity to come up with feel-good comments is pretty amazing too =)
