Mysore-Delhi-Mysore - Part 2

Sorry about the 20 day lapse. 10 of them were really awesome and I didn't have any time t0 sit down and blog about it. A lot of things have changed but almost everything else is the same, just the way I remember it and love it. I was moblogging on my way to the airport on 23rd night but then felt so sleepy after reaching the airport that I couldn't anymore and there's no use posting half of it, well I can't anymore because I deleted it. Met almost all my family and friends, some of them more than just once, which is great considering the amount of time I had. If I only I had a car all to myself, I could have made more trips. Watched movies in multiplexes according to my choice without standing in mile-long queues for getting the tickets. Ate the best food in the world, at home. Slept like a log on MY bed and did not feel like waking up at all, haven't slept so peacefully in a long time. It was just perfect.

Going back again in December for 5 days to attend Vishal's wedding and other related ceremonies. I'm so excited at the thought of going back again already, almost like I'm holding my breath. Also looking forward to some of you coming down here for Prerana's wedding. (Two down, who's next?)

Back in Mysore, the same old grind. Weekdays are just a big black blot on the calendar and the weekends are highlighted in gold and silver. The first few days after coming back were quite depressing but we got the hang of it pretty soon. Last weekend was....I actually can't recall what we did...must've been indoors all the time. This week was much better, there is a lot of work to do and it's not boring at all. Friday night was our first team dinner and that's about all am going to say about it. Went to the campus yesterday after a long time (on a weekend) and played TT. Felt great, although my shoulder did play spoilt-sport. Need physiotherapy for sure. Watched District 9, brilliant sci-fi flick. Going to watch Man On Wire today (check reviews on RottenTomatoes). Please suggest some great movies, which make you go WOW!

Read Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terri Pratchett, FUNNY!! Also read The Icon by Forsyth but I think I already told you that. Reading Dan's latest - The Lost Symbol. Same old plot, same old characters, buying it seems like a mistake right now. Can only hope it gets better. Next on the list - Three Men In A Boat, supposed to be funny too.

Check out Teach For India. They have a really good program for providing quality education to the less privileged. Second phase of registrations going on, hurry if you're interested.

I need new headphones too. Any suggestions?

High: Refer to para 1.

Low: Refer pic (file photo dated 26/06/2008, location Nandu's old house, Nish and Vishal not in picture). Peru, Vruni, Happy and KRITZ weren't there this time. Curses! Also, just realized, did not click a single pic while I was at home. Doh!!

Points: I'm feeling generous. 1000 points to everyone!
