You learn at 23:
1. Romantic Movies are bullshit.
2. Money is probably everything.
3. There's a deep intellectual person in you, but right now, it just wants more money to express itself.
4. New friends are suddenly untrustworthy. Guys are back stabbers and girls are bottomless bit*hes.
5. It's every man for himself.
6. How to work while being stoned/buzzed.
7. Lying is okay if it serves a deeper, self-justified purpose.
8. Society is another bullshit story. It's okay to do what you want to, till you feel it's right.
9. To respect the virtue of laziness.
10. To find happiness in mediocrity.
11. Using expensive phones is an illusion of appearing big-dicked.
12. Being rich would buy you more books, more movies, and more art. If you were richer, you'd decidedly be more well-read, well-informed and creative.
13. Get Rich or Die Tryin', or Do an MBA.
14. Losing your sleep is the worst thing you can do to yourself.
15. You'd give your left kidney to be a musician. Or, to get paid for what you love doing.
16. Parents are frighteningly responsible.
17. Sometimes, what you write is complete crap. There is no hidden adolescent significance in it anymore.
18. Why Beatles are Kings. And Queens.
19. Love and sex are threateningly symbiotic.
20. It's not always smart to end lists at authoritative figures like 10, 20, 25, 50 and 100.

That's true. But you think these things mostly on bad days. When you've spent a nice happy day, you do see more rosy things. And probably these revelations come to you more when you come to a big and ruthless city, away from the comfort and security of a small town.It is always difficult to believe in your value system if you are surrounded by people who don't believe in it or don't facilitate you to believe in it.
But Parul, this was written as a collective and a stable change I found in my thought patterns, over 4-5 months in Mumbai, of leaving home and of getting older.
In other words, these aren't the things I feel when I'm down, this IS what I feel.
You look like Anuraag Kashyap in this picture. Really.
Haha. I've come to observe that any guy with a round face and unkempt facial hair can pass as a double for him.
