AN UNFORGETABLE WEEK..

Well the past seven days saw some of the most memorable events take place....firstly the AUSTRALIAN OPEN...god what can I say about Nadal...for those of you who know about tennis would definitely agree with me that this was one of the greatest matches ever played in history..Being a diehard Nadal fan myself,after the grueling five hour semi final and less than 24 hours to rest nobody would have routed for Nadal in the final especially against the inform Federer.. but it was the other way round...for anybody in a midlife crisis,with no hope and nothing left please do watch this match.I was in Ranji's place busy helping in the arrangements of Selvis engagement cermony which was to take place the next day that i forgot about the finals.It was when i saw the newpaper it struck me and i rushed to the tv to find Nadal a set up...from there on for four hours i didnt hear another sound except the beating of the tennis balls across the net between two of the best players the game has ever seen..i feel so sorry that i cant get the right words to explain the match..you must watch it to agree...please if anyone missed it worth watching it..VAMOS NADAL.
Secondly i spent the whole week there..wow what a life it was.Ranjith had flown in from the US on Sunday...it was a suprise trip..i dont know i god had heard my prayers but the govt had announced an indefinite leave....from there on there was no stopping us..everyday a hen or fish was sacrificed...eating and sleeeping for seven days with no physical activites saw my weight raise by 2 kg....had a wonderful time with Ranjith...sad that he left yesterday...now im sitting confused and angry with the thought of attending college on monday perodically come as a blow...please god hear my prayers again...

NO BETTER WAY TO KICKSTART.....

well almost a week away from blogging????its really difficult to explain the whole story....or the reason may be...it was really a productive one though...completed THREE novels during that time...had planned one novel a month(lol)...this is so cool...
-The life of Pi-Yann Martel
-One night at the call-center-Chetan Bhagat
-The White Tiger-Aravind Adiga
all three impressing in their own way...but the first one will always be close to my heart for it helps me a lot when im exhausted both mentally and physically...glad kicked out the habit of watching movies(theres no time for those)...i am busy these days which makes me wonder how the hell did these 22 years pass-by...but for some reason I glad that things are changing fast(really fast)a ray of hope somewhere deep in my heart has put aside those doubts of fear....

today was another great day...i joined my GRE class that i had been procrastinating for the past two weeks...what a relief ooopps no....now is where the nightmare starts...the preparation..OMG!!!it was a wonderful first day in the class...was just an introductory one..we spoke about Obamas inagural speech followed by the verbal section...before this i was asked to rate myself on a scale of 10,how good my vocabulary was...that was a difficult one..because i do not have any idea of what the wordlist consists..i blindly told him 5(a safe bet i thought)..he smiled and asked a few words for none of which i knew sorry....i heard them for the first time...was a bit embarrassing..but the class was so lively and fun..i lost myself in it completely(first time it ever happened in a class-room)....im so eager for the next one...ALL THE BEST i said to myself before i left...

BACK TO BASICS...

The day before yesterday..nearly after six long years and now after so much compulsion,bugging and persuading from my friend i became a member of a public library and lent my first novel for the year..THE LIFE OF PI by YANN MARTEL.taking into account im an atheist minus the exam time,such a beautiful book to start with after such a big break... i lost the habit of reading long back for which i started cursing myself today..how could it ever happen i imagined,trying to figure out what on earth got me into that situation..but at the moment im so happy to get back there and the joy of reading is now a different kind...the sigth of the novel always lights up my face with a big smile...thank you soooo muucccchh to the person who helped me here...

THEY PRETEND TO TEACH I PRETEND TO STUDY

Today was the first day to college for the year 2009...reached around 8...was very anxious and exicted.It wore a deserted look except for the watchmen and the workers who queued in at the entrance to register themselves..on my way to the class glanced at the notice board and found nothing interesting..the department was so empty that i could hear my footsteps echoing through the hallway..opened to door and urgh..the desks very so dirty...they were covered with a thin film of dust that gave them this antique look...my excitement was dying....more anxious i look at the time table to find out who i going to listen to for the first day of the final sem,bang all my exictement had already gone when i saw the name VIJILESH...god,he was the last person i had hoped for..my simle disappeared all of a sudden..walked to the last bench took a magazine that lay beneath and dusted the desk sat down took my pen and book and started jolting down this(to keep myself exicted)..a few girls dropped in and immediately started arranging the desks,then Yamini came and was greeted with a big hai from her friends,what did she do?kept her bag in her place walked upto the board cleaned it and wrote the date..hmmm why didnt that thought ever occur to me...saravanaprabhu was invited by a meaow from someone next to me turned around to find ragavendra..when and where the hell did he come from...ooops many people barging in,cant multitask all i could hear was New Year wishes and a few giggles..i just put my head up and there was VIJILESH...back to square one..he looked curious and annoyed to find only a handful of boys in the last bench..was expecting him to ask us to move forward to the first bench..suprising he didnt...hardly five mins he didnt speak a word about the hols or new year, straight into the subject which he usually reads from a paper he always carries with him..by now most of them had arrived....myself,arun,giri,rajeev and hari had occupied the last bench,Vijilesh started his monolouge while we discussed about the fin we had during the hols...in between the was dead silence all of a sudden looked up,hahahaha vijilesh had asked a question..it often happens..this is where we stay united in the class not a single soul bothered to answer him cause more than half hardly knew what the question was.he gave up as usually and continued...in between he caught me day dreaming that was really embarrasing ......i then stopped writing...


today i read a beautiful article about thanking people,it said that the habit of thannking others should be cultivated and not taught..sometimes we become so exicted and happy that we forget about the people who helped you up there....so i want to take this time out to thank two people who helped and inspired me to start this blog..PRAGI and PRIYANKAA.They made it look so simple...thank you soooooo muuuccccchhhhhh...

SUPRISES MAKE IT MORE EXICTING!!!

This one got me gasping for breath....the time was around 11:30,i was in megamart scanning thorough pile of t-shirts that had these beautiful quotes on them...all of a sudden my phone rang(it hardly does at this time of the day)...it said SELVI(my sis) calling..i picked it up with my trade mark greeting's "Hai.how are you how was your exam??".she said that she was fine and her exams got on well hoping that she would clear all the papers.Than for a sec or two she paused and she said with this giggling voice of hers"pppppraaaaaaaaddddddeeeeeeepppppp,im getting married".Bang my jaws dropped the salesman opposite to me gave me this comic look his eyes wide open starring right into mine like i was some clown,until i got back to my senses...At first i thought she was joking...and i couldnt reply immediately because the air got stuck in my windpipe and it jammed, gasping for my breath i coughed to let it out...she than said she herself didnt expect it so soon..i then congratulated her and after a small query session i learnt that the mapilai was from tirupur and his name was Balaji.He was into spinning like my dad business....wow another memorable event coming up this year...this year is so so so special...


today was yet another great day..they say "A JOURNEY OF A THOUSAND MILES BEGINS WITH A SMALL STEP" ,Im glad ive taken that small step ...i ran the mini mini marathon (6 kms)today that was conducted by the some coimbatere club..so happy that i completed it..it has changed the way i approach things now,with a "i can and i will" attitude.i didnt win though but that didnt spoil the joy and fun i had later...keep going..many more hurdles to cross..
