These days

What am I doing? I have three books to get through in a couple of days, three tests, one term paper due on Friday, two Bangla essays to revise and one to write before (extremely late) submission, and...? Here I am, writing about nothing. All morning and most of the last several days/nights I've been sitting here reading pointlessly(?) and listening to overwhelming music that I'm new to and am just beginning to understand, and smiling to myself, constantly. It feels beautiful, and mad, not the least because I have this perpetual feeling that I'll faint at any moment without any prior notice to self, because of the heat. So it's basically between the bed and the computer table. Every other day, some friend or the other comes over, and we lie about on the chhaad or the verandah in the dark and the breeze, for hours. University lies forgotten. What am I doing?
