I asked myself when was the last time that I had done a thing for the first time in my life.Such a simple question, but I was surprised when it started taking quite a long time to figure it out.Here is some of the things that came to my mind.
1.Driving a car.I drove a car for the first time in my life in june 2005.It has been two years.Long time.But I was happy to find out that I can drive and it is not a big deal after all.I would like to share that I had driven a bike for the first time in 1999 when I was all of 12.But that does not interst me any more.
2.Alone on an express train.I travelled from Mumbai to Kolkata alone in a train.That was back in January 2006.It was an awesome experience, more so because the train arrived 22 hours late at Howrah.What happened in those 22 hours is very close to my heart and I need a great amount of inspiration and motivation to get it out. I had travelled to Kolakata by plane alone in January 2004.But that did not even have an iota of the excitement of travelling alone in a long distance train at the age of 18.
3.Trekking.Ok, this was not an expedition.But 6 hours to and fro in the hills of Lonavala and spending the night in a nondescript village comprising of 21 huts and 1 pucca house in the midst of a silent valley has to be an experience.That was in July 2006.
4.I gulped vodka for the first time last december.(Dad if you are reading this,I am joking...this is just a blog)
Now my thoughts are blocked. what else? what have I done for the first time in the recent past.Nothing substantial comes in my mind.Is this the reason that I am feeling a bit bogged down for some days now.Have I been studying too much or thinking about studies way too much that I have missed out on some great experience.Few may agree but I will not.Then there has to be a reason for me not doing something new in my life for quite some time.Let me figure it out.
PS: In the last 4 days I have solved 1887 questions of GRE.This is first time in my life that I have crossed the 1000 mark.But the question here is 'Is this satirical?'
