'No exam' blues!

The first three days of the new year haven't been very pleasant till now.

The first day, for the first time (at least in my college life), I was getting paranoid about not having studied anything for exams despite the fact that I never start studying at least 48 hours ahead of any semester exam. And I always do well ( well, almost :-D) And this, for a sessional!

I got over it somehow last night by having dinner twice and hunting down the syllabus.

Swept two chapters in Integrated Circuits ( Mind you, I set a record for having started so early and now I'm almost sulking)

Today morning, I made a trip to college ( as a ritual) and then got some topics marked by Arun ( the man is an angel) and returned home.

Took up the book- aah! Too easy! Lunch followed by surfing the net and an hour of NFS.

Then I got a call at around five to get to the hostel- did so and found that our sessionals had been postponed.

The blogger returned home; loafed around and now is again in front of the computer.

Damn!!

Phew!!
Another year has rolled by and armed me with lots of experiences.
Bodh-2008 unarguably gave me the best moments in this time. The camaraderie, the challenges, the fun and the sheer hard work was phenomenal.
Travel was on the lower side this year. Still, made a couple of trips to Kerala, an Udaipur one and a short stay at Bangalore. Was as bored as a snail in the Udaipur one; the south ones were rocking!!
I would say that I’ve got to know myself better in this period.
But apart from these things, this was a terrible year
Academics took a backseat (it has been for two years now; but something’s’ amiss and I’m not liking it)
The year was verrryyyyyy boring :( :(
Things have been very dormant; I’ve been idiotic, remained in a cocoon and messed things up.


Hope I change for the better :)

Ghajini

What can I possibly say about this movie.

Everyone's done a simply fabulous job! (though Ghajini could have been more malicious!)


I loved it (despite all the Rajnikantity in it :P)

Go for it!!!!

Very very very angry!!!

Never trust anyone to do a job which you could have done.


Damn!

I’ve been dying to watch Ghajini for 5 days now and the qualified morons I'd chosen to watch the movie with screwed their plan (which never existed in the first place)

First rate imbeciles!! :x :x

Of all people I know, some aren’t interested now and the majority rest have already watched it!!

I’m really pissed off!!! :x :x :x


Ughghghghghghghghghghh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Koi mujhe is duniya se bachao.

God grant me the calm not to kill those people and the place to hide the bodies of those I've already killed.

Spectacle dilemma

And Anish learns yet again!

Another Sunday morning-I get up and realize that this is the first Sunday in a loong loong time that I need not go for Debating Club meet. The meets are over for this semester.

I go back to sleep and get up again at ten after dad literally yells for the hundredth time!!! :D

Breakfast, movie, Lunch, Movie, LT
And suddenly i discover it is evening four-thirty!!! dad's appointment with the Ophthalmologist. As we leave, neighbor asks me to get my eyes checked too for my muscle power. I say, yay!! :)

Off we go...
Dad's tests were dragging. I actually dozed off for fifteen minutes. I wake up to realize it is six thirty and dad has another test to go. I too take an appointment to get my eyes checked just like that. Moreover, it'd been 20 odd months since i last got my eyes checked. I might have my lens power increased. So, why not!

And as soon as I register, dad is done with the test.Damn!!
And then there was a looooooooong wait including three peeks into a weird machine, tests for power of lens, and five sets of eye drops!!
And my eyes were burning like they would if chilly paste was put into them.

I was cursing myself for having got into this mess.
It was already eight o clock.

Finally I was called in.

I brace up, ready for my new increased power(of lens :P)

And the first thing doc says(asks rather!) is,
"Anish! Why do you wear such high powered lenses?"

I was baffled.

Then I get the shock of the month.

I was told I was wearing -2.75 powered lenses where only -1.75 ones were needed!!!
I confirmed thrice!!

Then I realized that the last time I got my power changed I'd taken the word of an optician only.

Darn!!!!

Angry, relieved, screwed, all at the same time.

My medicines and new specs took up all the money we'd brought!! :D

Moreover, because of the five sets of drops, my vision was blurry and had difficulty driving back home. :|

Got to home, exhausted, relieved and with empty pockets :D

Then we'd not been to Moti Mahal- The tandoor trail, for a loong time.
It's really a fine chain of restaurants in India.

Had a hearty dinner there.
Returned home very happy.

Thought of posting last night, but decided to rest my eyes.

The blogger is all fine now :)

Happy B'day!
