Long time no post....

It has been a long time & i have not been able to post any blogs in the mean time...

Its not because i have gone lazy. No no... I have been busy... Well last week was a bad week ... loads & loads of work...And i went off with my room-mate "deepak" to my another room-mate "sujith"'s engagement.

We left delhi on 25th night for bhopal. Since it was already getting hot in delhi, we thought that a t-shirt would do. But it did NOT do. It was terribly cold on the way. And i had to go to the bathroom 4-5 times in the night. Freezing cold...

Also, it was shivratri on 26th, the next day. And mom had asked me to go on a fast that day. It was supposed to be fruit day. So we bought lots of bananas and grapes and oranges (about 1 kg of each).

Reached bhopal around 8 in the morning. Damn cold. Freezing cold. And sujith simply forgot to tell us that it was so cold on the way.

Well anyways, we had breakfast. I ate only bananas and grapes and missed out on the excellent idli & sambar that aunty had made. Always happens whenever i am on a fast....

Went down to the engagement place. Saw the engagement. Well there is nothing in the engagement except 2 people exchanging rings. Again there was good food - traditional south indian style and again i missed out on it :-(

Later in the evening we went for boating and on a long drive. Boating was boring... Nothing to do except paddle and see water around you... No excitement and loads of time pass. Cost us 40 bucks. The drive was good. Came to know that bhopal is really a very good city with lots of trees and located on a hill.

Had to catch return train at 9 in the night. And we were told "it wont be cold in the night on the way back". But it was cold. Very cold. So pls remember to take at least a blanket with you whenever you are going to bhopal. Because it is very very cold on the way.

Back to delhi on monday morning. Auto took 80 Rs. Very costly and a cheat. Went to office and have been in and out of meeting since then.

1 week of meetings. Projects being scrapped after they are made. Briefs changing after everything is done and just before launch. The same routine. Same fire-fighting. My normally abnormal life ....

Till i come by again.......
