The Week that was......
Well a lot of events have occured over the past week and i regret to say that very few of them are cherishable. For starters, my classes have started. Its been almost a year and a half since I've gone to a classroom and the feeling is eery. And I've got homeworks too! Yuck yuck and one more big yuck again!! Learnt how to make aloo-gobi and the tomato-daal-thadka this week. A very good addition to my culinary skills actually and my roomies(whom i consider as really good chefs) said I have a lot to pick up. No wonder those days when i have to cook the other three roomies quielty drop into the kitchen, look at what i am trying to cook, let out a subtle sigh and pick up bread slices and cheese and walk away! Its now that i realise why moms get mad at you if you don't eat at home! Had a rock concert at my college lastnight and I went to check it out. Was the first Indian there when some American,thoroughly drunk, sat beside me and seeing that I was Indian started of a conversation with me about the quality of Indian tobacco. All was fine until he started discussing cricket with me. Little does he know that I am one of those poor few Indians here that knows zilch about cricket and dont exactly enjoy discussin it! Had to excuse myself saying that I had a party going on at my home and the"dudes" back home would be expecting me and walked away sheepishly. Among the other not-so-fond incidents of the week is a "cherry" coke bottle leaking in my back pack and getting my ear-phones and my class notes totally drenched. Checking out cheap deals over the net for head-phones now. Thats about that and I am gonna go for a smoke. Thought of the day - If you end up in inevitable long walks alone, one way to keep your mind occupied is try calculating 153 times 765! Works wonderfully!
