A Haunting

An eventful day. Eventful in the sense it's the 1st time I'm publishing events that took place on the same day. Hope that this run can continue.

Anyway, the day started with the 1st day of vocational training at CMC Bhilai. Yes, Java, it is.
2 and a 1/2 hours of it followed by breakfast consisting of Dosas. Its quite amazing how dramatically my food requirement has gone down in the past 2 years. There was a point when I was accustomed to late morning starts and breakfast on the bed but today, it was all about slugging at 05.30 AM. Damn. Owing to my disability with driving two-wheelers, it was all down to one kind friend to shuttle me. The course was exactly as I had hoped it to be.

Afterwards, slept quite unusually for an hour due to that unscheduled early morning workout.
But from noon onwards, it was all about playing games - If you know what that means.

After what seemed like a never ending day, the evening took us (hostelers) to some horror file show - "Haunted" was up in town at Adlabs and being a Wednesday, it was time for the weekly bargain - Balcony seats for a meagre Rs. 40.
To be frank, the movie didn't scare the hell out of me but had a few riveting moments.

To sign off the day in style, an ice-candy treat from seniors is always welcome.
More Java to follow...

A Lovely Day...

What's your idea of a perfect day? Rain, thunderstorms, or the Sun shining brightly. Well mine's all of it. I finally had my day yesterday. I know people would call me crazy - Bathing in the Sunshine of a hot summer day, with temperature likely to cross 40 deg C as the day progresses. But it's just perfect - A hot, sultry day, with humidity less than 20%, making the sky sparkling blue and the sunshine all the more dazzling. 

I don't hate rain though; India's annual monsoon season is one sure thing to look forward to, but its days like this which make you admire the beauty of being on Planet Earth. The Sun radiating with all its might on a nice Summer day, the tree leaves shining, new as they are having just been born in the spring, and the people with all their vibrant clothes. Spanish people know what I'm talking about, don't you?

This wasn't the 1st and certainly won't be the last day like this. More to come and expected wholeheartedly...
