Oreo.

Over 33 Million oreos are consumed every day around the world, this twist, lick and dunk biscuits describe and bring to us the very meaning of yin/yang. No 1 biscuit in the world, a perfect blend of vanilla  and chocolate brought to you in a small packet of happiness.


I don't know where to start, since the beginning of time or maybe since the time I realized I was the dumb idiot, what matters most, and even on the precipice of insanity, is the desire to feel important. It is of the utmost importance to one as a human being. We all find it in different methods, and it is through such acts we progress through life and unto death. It is only but natural. It is our way of preserving who we are, whatever we are.

It was 1230am and I hadn't slept for days, the alcohol in my body had started to work its way and had screwed up my thought process. I could see my bed all dirty from the evening previously and the days before, the amount of pot smoked on it was bewildering. It was about at this time that my internet actually got decent to play on and I continued my past days ritual of playing either DoTA or HoN. My sub-conscience had realized that I didn't give a fuck about anything as long as I had a hero in front of me to control and pawn ass. I was a machine, I could play for endless hours together and yet still be thirsty for more. I hadn't seen the sun for 2 weeks now and intended to keep it that way. Maybe because I was scared it was out to kill me or just because of the fact that I as every other 20 year old feels every waking moment of his/her life, was feeling useless, insignificant and neglected. Its these moments that bring you to insanity and your mind plays jedi mind-tricks on you. My hands worked automatically and Orez was sitting beside me cleaning and getting the apparatus ready, 1 hit and I would be set to get wired into the game and forget I had anything I wanted to give a fuck about.

We finished and Orez went to play with some juniors, of which I never approved, but then again he couldn't play with me or my friends, so it only made sense that he found his way to find refuge. Aanjaan was in the next room with some juniors tumbling down the rabbit hole with his new found apparatus. Today was different, as I continued playing I felt tired and bored, I decided to quit and take a nap, asking Orez to lock me from the outside. These moments were like half-reality, half-dream. I have clear memories of what was happening and what I was dreaming about, I could see various DoTA heroes, HoN heroes alive and roaming about amongst the hostel rooms/corridors and having weird ass conversations amongst themselves, and at the same time I was lying on my bed trying to sleep starting at the stained wall in my room. It was about 15 mins after that Booboo came to the room searching for Orez, and in that state of mind I guided him to the juniors room and tried my best at getting to sleep.

After about moments later or maybe an hour or 2 I couldnt tell since my mind was in overdrive, escaping at the velocity of light towards insanity, Aanjaan hurriedly opened my door and screamed the word Official. It seemed like a dream to me, but I was suddenly awake, like a bolt of lightning had hit me, like as if someone had just given me meckansm and Arcane at the same time. I quickly reached for my lock, locked my room, shut the mains off and briskly walked to the water cooler near to my room. It was there that a junior filled me up about the happenings of the night. Aanjaan and the juniors had got caught in their room smoking pot, I was just in the next room, with my door wide open, with weed all over my room, on my freaking chair, table and a freaking bong under my bed. I was in shock, and I quickly went into the room Orez was playing.

Orez was the corner of the 4-bedded room they were playing Lan DoTA in and it took me some effort to get to his side of the room, I got to him and the first thing he asked me was if I wanted to play. I couldn't believe how oblivious he was to what was happening. I filled him in, and he didn't really seem to grasp what I had to say, yes all of us DoTA players are similar. We really don't give a fuck when we are wired in. Anyway the security heard the noises from this room and they came to check what was going on here, everything was handled and we were all kicked out of the room other than the roommates. Once outside I had to refill Orez with the details and we set out to search for Aanjaan, since he wasn't even answering his phone. After catching hold of some juniors and telling them no threatning them that they better tell us where Aanjaan is, they said they would message us when they knew. So we decided to go to BooBoo's room for the time being, till the security was dealt with.

BooBoo's room had an AC, oh the luxury and bliss of an AC room was not the kind for me, but I enjoyed it ocasionally and much more in GJ's room. Well we got him upto speed with what had happened and he too agreed that I had some crazy ass luck for not getting caught. After about 15 mins we got a message from the junior about Aanjaans quick getaway hideout and left to meet him. We asked him what had happened and  this is what he told us.

"Nothing dude, we were all inside his room, we were smoking up, and some of these guys said they are going for water. So they left the door open and had just gone out and suddenly a security guy comes walking into the room, I just managed to squeeze between him and the door and I ran out. On the way I saw your room door open, so I thought I should warn you before I run. But I left my mobile there man. Its over."

I was in awe, this fat dude squeezed between the fat security dude and the small door of a G block single bedroom, noway. But then again he was standing in front of me and not with the officials trying to explain what he was doing with a chillam and stash. Obviously the mature thing at this point of our night was to go back and  sleep and try to forget about whatever happened. Well remember the first paragraph in this blog? No not the one about Oreos, the one about protecting who we are. We, well I decided fuck this, I'm going back to my room and smoking some more pot, I really need to stop thinking of how lucky I was that night. So we waltzed  like kings back to my room and blazed a few doobies only to forget what had happened and discuss HoN and DoTA, and then to remember it again while writing this up.

HumtY-
