So fool's day passed without any fuss. No one cared to fool me but a single dear friend of mine. That's it. Then we went to watch Delhi Heights, which had nothing good in taste but a single song which certainly took my attention to the most. Can I say: this movie fooled me? Well, it did. A perfect April Fool's Day's movie. It did everything to attract the attention, trying to carve out a space for itself in arena of contemporary movies like, Bas Ek Pal, Water etc, boasting of a unique cinema about human relationship in a modern society where a hell lot of people live in houses stuck together, horizontally and vertically, in a form of a huge building called Delhi Heights. I can't talk more about it, just afraid of the after-blues I was left with out of the theatre. But, yes, I had rejoiced once the movie was finished: "sach batao, khatam ho gaya?"

Anyways, I moved into a new flat. Life wanted some change. This place is better than the last one, have more spacious rooms, and like a bonus, two huge balconies. Whatever, I know you are laughing at me that I write such stupid things also. Okay. I stop.

- Writing is a tough job.
- Yeah. That's why I want to do it.
- What you wanna write about?
- Umm... that's funny. Because, I have no fix idea. I am thinking up many things these days. Let's see which one stays long enough. Guess, I am not yet mature enough to venture into such a serious job.
- They say that we know everything we need in order to make our dreams come true.
- Writing books is not a dream. This is too abstract. Dreams are more concrete.
- May be, the other way round.
- Ha-ha-Ha...They also say that a writer writes only about himself. All great works were reflections, though little manipulated here and there, of their authors' lives.
- How about your life?
- I have no history. At least no significant one.
- It's very important to have a personal history in order to write.
- Something that compels your pen. Something in your thought that doesn't allow you a moment of ease.
- Without them this is an impossible task.

- Yes. I am searching.
- Are you sure?
- Don't know.

James Thurber quoted: Don’t get it right, get it written. So, lets get it down, if not on paper, then at least here.
