A lesson from the Bed Bugs!!

Its been a while since me and my roomies have been suffering from rashes and yesterday we decided to dust off our beds... and discovered colonies of bed bugs!!(Mom , this blog is not for you..:).)... living happily sucking blood from our bodies since 2 whole semesters!! For those of you who do not know, bed bugs are small flat insects who thrive on human blood. So well, we invaded their well established colonies in the small corners of our mattresses.While I was doing it I coudn't help noticing how well the bugs had survived so far, we had been sleeping on them and not even once did we suspect that they had intruded so well all around us. It made me realize how well equipped every living creature is for its own survival. I mean its not like these bugs have small brains which tell them where exactly they should start off a colony.. right??

Someone up there really took a lot of time and effort in making all of this.. !!

So... whats next?

Its funny how we spend almost half of our lives planning things like college, job... and then may be marriage kids etc. But what do people do once they have achieved all of that , what do people do when they have a nice job a nice family "have been there done that"..??

I am 22 and so far for me it always has been one stage getting planned before one ends(like most people I know). From high school onwards its always been intensive planning for things working hard to achieve them followed by dealing with the failures or successes. I don't remember the last time when I told myself " i dont know what to do next". I just couldn't help wondering , what happens when i am done with all that I have thought for myself? or does it never end at all..?..
