A Sunday?
What a day!
CAT classes in the morning. Woke up, severely short of sleep. As usual, what’s new there? Had been studying for Modern Mathematics. Guess what happens at IMS? Instead of that, they decide to go with the Geometry, since we were left half way through last time’s class, owing to the Mumbai Rains!
I did not fare very well, got average marks. Warning signs! I need to get my act together for the CAT. Less than a hundred days remain (for the actual prep)!
===============
My geek friends had decided to do a meet-up. So, Gautam, Nadeem, Sagar, Swapneel and myself decided to have a luncheon. We decided to have pizzas (what else?) at the Pizza Hut at the Inorbit Mall.
Interesting conversations. Ruby versus Python versus Java. Gautam’s obsession with Linux, the Penguin-Boy! Nadeem’s 1600/1600 in the GRE. Sagar’s hilarious descriptions of his professors and friends. Swapneel’s iPod! Garfield! Coupling! Movies! Computer! Common hatred for tech supporting families, friends and complete strangers!
Gautam left for his other party (His girl friend’s mom was hosting one! And they said geek’s don’t have those?) later on, while we enjoyed our cheesy Garlic Breaks, Tandoori and Exotica Pizzas. Learnt that anchovies are small, silvery fishes. Yuck!
===============
We were quite hung up deciding what to do next… Movies… We tried, but missed the timing. So decided to hang out at the Barista. Had a Cappuccino Shot! The purest, strongest and bitterest form of coffee! Had an awesome time, with jokes, tech, and Nadeem’s seemingly endless banter. Well, Swapneel was his new bakra!
===============
Went to Sagar’s place later on, the bumbling bee (rather, the mooing buffalo?) had forgotten to get me his Taub and Shilling for my Communication Engineering – II. We had really planned a hit-and-run, but they seldom work out as planned. So what started with listening to one MP3, extended to watching this clip from that movie, blowing up completely with Nadeem, Sagar and me watching two episodes of Coupling! Nadeem loved it!
Copied a whole lot of movies from the LAN, enough entertainment to last this week, at the very least! Left for home by 2030.
===============
The friendship day’s meet of my school friends got called off, reasons best left to themselves. Not that I completely regret it or anything.
===============
Inundated with Friendship Day messages! Nice! Called people. Had a chat with a couple of them. If I missed you out, don’t worry, the day is only a start, there’s a whole year to do the calling!
===============
Returned home, happy. Dinner, with a new episode of Gilmore Girls. What is it with that series? I just love it at times. Just the perfect emotional drive one needs at the moment. Beautifully done. To be followed by Apollo Four Forty. Life is Good!
Here’s to a new week, a new Monday. Monday Blues, here I come!College starts at 0900. I plan to reach quite earlier. Just to maintain my cheery mood! Wish me luck! Wish me a great week! And same to you too!
