Sunday it was...got up in the late 8'o clocks...which was early when compared what my best friend woke up...( Called her at 11 30 a.m. an she was still sleeping.. )..and considering the fact that i had a late nite premiere of the movie "Flavors" on dvd at home last night...it was a commendable job to get up as early.A line bout the movie.It movie was quite simple..about life in the US..Indians to be precise..and the software industry..very straight..and very heartening to watch..and I bet u'll have it in ur mind as a hangover . I had it.
Coming back...I switched on to world space immediately,because i dont want the subscription to go waste as such ;)...switched on the computer..had my usual routine of checking out scraps and offlines..And after all the "formalities" :P...went and had a decent luking hair cut..which my parents usually call the "sadhana-cut"..{ Felt bad to lose on the hard-earned "big boy look" if i can call..always does }...And just when i got ready and was about to leave for my first ~Pankhudi campaign...i get a call from my cousin to take a chill for the meet today..as i was already late by half an hour..i knew it was on the cards..because i knew i was late...and i knew it was because it was the weekend...
Now trying to think of how to spend the rest of the day is, i feel, a very tough job.Because there are so many options available..there is so much to do..and there is this "so-little-time" thing that keeps popping in my mind everytime..The following were the options i had and the statement following was what i had in mind about them..in alphabetical order..
- Clean up my room.."Nah..No matter how many times i do it, it takes a full circle and is the same the next evening..So no worth in doing it..Lite le"
- Music -- " Thts obvious parellel processing..Nothing there to consider it as an option"
- Orkut and GTalk--" Ab kaun rahega..Everyone will be busy in their own family matters..Again can be considered..but less interest"
- Read for the on-going training program--"Situation looks grim right now with a similar looking cgpa..i guess i can walk in the foot steps of Chetan Bhagat and pen down a Three-Point-Sumone...Hmm lets see"
- Go for a ride on the bike -- " Its sunday bey..."
- Sleep -- " Mom's gonna kick my a** .Abhi do ghante pehle toh utha hoon "
- Visit a friend/Call sumone -- " I'm too lazy today for that ".
- Wash my car--" Came from servicing just two weeks back buddy,lets do it the next week"
- Watch Television--" Hmm..Valid option.CAN be considered "
And then ...had a sumptuous lunch..courtesy mom..And having no other option in the weekdays but to eat at the food courts..having a full lunch prepared by mom is always a welcome change..And then started trouble..It was 2 o clock by the time i was done with lunch..3-4 hours more to go before the F1 race starts and immediately followed by Ind-Eng day 4..LIVE.A voice from my inside said.."Yaar book atleast khol na..padh mat..magar atleast giv it a try..It will be a good feeling that atleast u've opened the books on the weekend " and another said.. " Yaar bahut thak gaya..so ja..". Eyes seemed liked they were more interested in the second voice..I wanted to go with the first..But Mom had other plans..She came up to me and got me this brilliant refreshing option of taking her out to my cousins plance for an hour..Beacuse logically thinking, that would cover most of my options. I had to wipe the car before i took it out ( if not clean it ), i could go for a drive , i could listen to music on the drive.So there i was, out in the afternun sun, in the ac, with my mom.Having spent some time there, by the time i was back it was 4:30..and to my surprise, i see dad sticking some stickers on my room's ceiling..and It was indeed those stars and the moon thing that you can daze at night while on bed..and lo..there was another option popping up..half an hour for stcking the rest of the radiums..5 o clock..Race could start anytime now..Raikonnen was on pole..but most importantly..My Fav Fernando Alonso was on the front row..with the rookie hero Lewis Hamilton way back five rows for the first time in his career..I wanted to watch the race badly..And then suddenly mausam badal gaya..( " zindagi ne zindagi bhar gham diye..jitne bhi mausam diye sab nam diye " )..started drizzling..and was so dull outside that i could resist myself from a nap...
By the time i got up..It was 7:30 in the evening. Race ended..match started..Kevin Pietersen was on song..and i remembered that i had to go to the ATM..else i dint have a single penny in my purse for the week..So went out..tuk the cash..got my watch re-adjusted..cam back..watched Kofee with Karan..Akshay Khanna it was with Anil Kapoor..Akshay impressed as always..And here i am ..finally at the end of the day..watching India wither under the english bowling..facing another full week of hectic schedules and not-known surprises life has got in store...without touching the books on the weekend..and most importantly..Posting in my blog after years...Applause applause..
Radio Jhankar plays : " ...Jab mile thodi fursat...khud se karle mohabbat..In dino dil mera..khud se hai keh raha..." and the poster in my room reads " I can..but I won't "
