Morning!

So I woke up too early this morning and came to work for no real reason ( When I come to think of it may be it was because of the disturbed sleep I had last night). Came across these interesting quotes:

"Good Morning is a contradiction of terms" - Jim Davis

" Never work before breakfast. If you have to work before breakfast, eat your breakfast first" - Unknown ( Reminds me of the days when me n my friends used to go straight to the mess from the bed)

"Sleep is a symptom of caffeine deprivation" - Unknown

Home

So yesterday, I was feeling nostalgic about my dorm room 328 and was thinking about how I if I were to call any place as "my home" that I would pick Room no. 328, Sharavati Hostel, IIT Madras, Chennai - 600036.
Ironically, I had a dream last night making me doubt that. Well the dream is really short. I was in the kitchen of my parent's place in Hyderabad reaching out for the jars above which had cashew nuts and peanuts in it.
All I can say is my parent's place had a point to make and it made it through the dream.

Addictions

So I came across this weekly horoscope in a magazine and it was interestingly put. So this is what it had to say for me (Aries):
"Success coach Tom Ferry says our ability to pursue our dreams can be damaged by four addictions: 1. an addiction to what other people think of us; 2. an addiction to creating melodrama in a misguided quest for excitement; 3. an addiction to believing we're imprisoned by what happened in the past; 4. an addiction to negative thoughts that fill us with anxiety. The good news, Aries, is that in the coming weeks you will find it easier than usual to free yourself from addictions 1, 3, and 4. On the other hand, you may be extra susceptible to addiction 2. So take action to make sure you don't fall victim to it! What can you do to avoid distracting adventures and trivial brouhahas?"

I don't think I have a problem with 1 and 3. 4 on some special occasion :P. Usually I am not bothered by 2 at all. But these days I seem to be doing it. I mean creating melodrama in my head, not on the outside though. Also how would one know if the quest for excitement is misguided until it ends badly? Even if it ends badly, could it be that its not misguided?
