Travel, Movie, Home...

1. It's so great to have a lovely long weekend after such a long time!! But then, we could not make any plans in advance.. so last moment plan : Coorg / Mysore..!!
2. News channels just do not have any other new to show other than MNIK today! Was wondering, if so much of force is deployed at the theatres, what if some terrosist blow something more imp?! Thinking people here have their own fights, why not fuel it! ! I am sick of this news now.. and now my husband wants to watch this movie!! Arggghhhh...
3. Specially on holidays i remember my old home (the one before marriage!!).. when Aai used to make special breakfast even if we used to get up at 10!! Now, i have to get up early to make the breakfast!!

Lazy, Hectic, Crazy...

1. Had pizza today...after so many days of craving! And that too on a rainy day, when i was not at all feeling to take out my car, go and wait there, today being a sunday there would have been lot of rush... Thank god and thank Smokin' Joe's for the prompt home delivery! Though Aai was not that happy to eat it, she liked the Garlic bread... followed by a nice coffee made by ME... :)
2. I am going to have a terrible week ahead.... but a paid week-off after this one is the real temptation to go to work this week... and now i can at least think of completing the wall which i started to paint, but stopped beacause of lack of time.. now i am going to have it painted with 'Warli' painting... a good way to spend that week!
3. Watched 'Rock on' again!!! I can (now) just watch Arjun Rampal (The God) and Farhan Akhtar (The Super Sexy-Man) any number of times... and my iPod is playing the songs of Farhan Akhtar every now and then, virtually driving Shrirang crazy! and i'm sure Andy is feeling a bit jealous, though he is not admitting! i should cut down my talks on Farhan Akhtar... :)

Dependency, Enjoyment, Craft...

1. I donno what would have i done had Andy was not there... i am so much dependent oh him that if i am stuck with a problem, and even if i know the solution, unless he confirms it, i cannot proceed... so leave alone that problem when i am dumbstruck! I have always been known as very much independent, yet this is happening to me! And i am so much enjoying this phase of my life!
2. Last weekend was full of fun at our house, with the Ganapati and Mahalaxmi celebrations... so many relatives had come, and we enjoyed it to the core.. but then, today i realized how desperately am i looking forward for the weekend... i am hopelessly tired and desperately want some rest!
3. It's been a while since i bought the raw wax, an di just couldnt make time to make candles.... now this Sunday, it shall be a candle day! Hope the electricity board does not take this in any other sense!

Drenched with rains, feelings...

1. It finally rained!! i don;t like this season much, because of some very stupid reasons, like; we cannot wear all the delicate yet expensive sandles, cannot go on a long drive because we don't have anything like 'rainy season' holidays, unless you're in Mumbai and it is reaning like hell... But, i also love this season for all the masti with 'n' number of cups of tea in a day, leaving car in the parking lot and deliberately proceeding without an umbrella, and being totally drenched at least once a week... and everybody was waiting for the heavens to pour.. for almost a week the weather was cloudy, leaving it humid... and finally, since yesterday, it's raining! and i cannot remember how many times i've had the adrak ki chai now!
2. We'd been to my maternal grandparents palce today evening. And it suddenly occured to me that it's been almost more than a month since i've paid a visit to their place. And when grandpa said that it's okay because you people are so much busy in your schedules, and they have so much time because of which they wait to see us, i somehow sensed the sadness rather than the sarcasm. And i felt so bad.. even after being in the same city, we cannot go and visit them because of our so-called busy schedules... and me, Shrirang and Aman decided to go there at least once a week... to have all the fun, with them!
3. Even though i've to go very early tomorrow to the college, i'm not feeling very bad fabout fit... now this is a very rare feeling on a Sunday night! But lately, because of some new work on my side, and very interactive new batch, i no longer have monday blues! Hope it continues throughout the year!

Reunion, Refreshement, Achievement....

1. Had a very eventful day today.. met my old college friends after a very hectic day at work..it's been years since all of us met last, so all were looking for this day. And we met at a restaurant where we'd gathered together on the last day of our final year's examination. So all the memories were refreshed... and though few of us are married, it was not at all a limitation to all the fun and masti we had in that jam packed restaurant... so much so that many people actualy turned to see us! (for the masti, not for 'us'!)
2. After that met Ragga after many days, again! Lately he's been busy been busy with his project, and me with my work.... and this meeting was exact in contrast of what we generally have.. we discussed about MBA, MTech, jobs, and Life!! my god, whatever has happened to us! fortunately, we realized this soon and decided to return to our normal self by sharing some new PJs..! And he told me that i suck big time!! :) It's so nice to meet people who care for you and love you relentlessly...
3. While i was checking out few tshirts (again!) at Globus with my friends, few of my students, who were shopping there came to meet me.. and we talked about their project, how good collection this store has, about a new play which some of them are doing, about this new movie they just wached.. after they left by showing me way to a very good range of cardigans, my friends told me how good they felt by looking at the conversation a lecturer was having with her students.. and wished we also had few lecturers back then... this made my day! My students love me! And people want/wanted to have a teacher like me! :)

Impluse, Planned, Unplanned...

1. Visited the boutique after so many days... Though i had to collect Aai's dresses, i ended up ordering a couple of new varieties for myself.. apart from the two shirts which i bought! This happens every time... yes, every time... :( I always decide i'll not buy anything, or at the max one shirt or a top or a suit.. but i just love clothes.. and i love to experiment with them.. and everytime i console myself with the same excuse!
2. Had gone to this book market with Swap. This was on my agenda for so long, that i was really excited about it, because i had a full list of books which i wanted to purchase. And i had decided that i'll buy at least 5-6 of them today. But as luck would have it, those vendors were not there, as a part of some improvement trust program, and nobody knew where were they shifted! Hell!! Now i'll have to wait till i fix my next trip to either Pune or Mumbai. And this will not happen at least for the next 3 months... Swap consoled me by asking me to take these from the library. Of course i will! Don't see much of a choice for sometime. But these are the ones which i want in my collection, and not just read and returned!
3. Got a chance to have paav-bhaji after such a long time... one of my fav dishes... at least this was a better part of the evening... hot paav-bhaji with tarri, cold drink and icecream in the fridge! Best way to end a hectic day, and having known that there is a two days holiday after that, makes it even more pleasent!

Favourites....

1. Just cannot think of anything else! Last weekend was one of the best weekends i've ever had... in one of my favourite cities..Hyderabad! With my favourite person!! And now cannot wait to meet him again, go to that palce again... why does time fly so fast when you want it to be the slowest?
2. So many unfinished tasks... one of them being to complete Warli painting on the wall in my room.. apart from joining a cooking class where they'll teach all the cookies and cakes.. now we should at least know how to cook something which is our fav! and i know so few recipies of cakes... :( should do that fast!
3. I'm waiting for the music program which i'll be delivering after so many years... and to prepare for something like that is always fun.. i wish he would be there to see me singing again..

Refreshment, Repeat, Excitement...

1. Today after a week-long gap i went out!! And it was so much refreshing to watch a play, staged by few of my colleagues as well as my students! Just a one hour play, yet having a lot of grip... and i was happy that my cousins (all 3 of whom were irritated at the sound 'play') enjoyed it to the core!!
2. This time again i missed the Roadies! And to add to it, i missed the two repeat shows also! And whenever i could see those, they were showing 'next week' thing! I have to watch this one! i dont wanna miss Anmol going out... hoping for Shambhavi to go too.... oh yes, i can put reminder in Tata Sky... lemmi see when are they showing it again...
3. It is such a strange feeling to have on a sunday night... to be excited about the monday's work!! Generally i get these Monday-blues.. but this time, because of 4 days of holidays, including a weekend, as well as my sick leave, i couldn't go to work for the whole week!! So i am really looking forward to have a great monday ahead, so as to have a great week!

Discussions, Record, Play..

1. Everybody is talking about the populist budget.. and for me, that discussion always brings out something new, new perspectives, new insights, analysis... (phew!).. i will have so many things to discuss with my students.. and now i can give them new projects..
2. I checked out my balance in the account.. and now i have decided not to spend a single money on me for at least 15 days.... no shopping, no eating out, no faltu kharche... if i do that, i'll achieve a new record!!
3. There is a very good play on sunday night, and i cannot go to watch it coz i have to go to work early on monday.. i hate sunday nights.. why can't these people have such plays on saturdays?

Workshop, Special meeting, Dilema..

1. This was one of the pathetic weekends i've ever had!! i was so down with migraine, that i had to miss my workshop at NMIMS!!! God knows when am i going to get this opportunity again...
2. Though i missed the golden opportunity, i met my grandparents after a long time... it's always a fun meeting them, apart from the pleasure!! And got to eat my grandma's special paratha after a really long time..!! And suddenly i realized, that it's been so many days since i haven't spent a day or two at their place... even when they always long to see us... i hated myself for that...
3. After reading the reviews of 'Jodha Akbar', now surprisingly i want to see that movie... but again, can i tolerate Mrs. Bachchan for 3 hours?!?!
