Posting this from Pune, the city of better Cinema Theatres and friends. I left Bangalore on Friday, 27th of Feb. Came by the usual bus. Only this time I was not alone. Mahesh was with me and it was a little less boring. We had lunch near his office and by the time we reached at the dinner halt, a place called ""Davangere", the nature had been calling me badly for some time. It was hell for perfectly understandable reasons.
Reached Pune at seven in the morning. Slept for some time. Got up and went for a movie with cousin, Amey. Saw "Ek hasina thi". Good movie. You can describe as "Satya"+"Ghayal" with a female lead. Urmila has done a good job as usual and for once Saif is not in a role of a confused lover. Pretty good. Just one background song and no foreign locations. N ice.
On the way back home, went to the tech book shop and bought some books. Cormen, Knuth (1st Vol) and Tannenbaum. Am really getting dead serious about CS now.
Then in the evening went to Gurbir and Sarika's wedding receiption and it was fun. Hanged around with the calsoft dudes. Enjoyed a lot. After coming home after midnight, mount called and we met at Ajuba. Anya, natesh, mount and me. The old gang was together again. Had my favourite mango pulp with cream and went to his pune house. Just sat and talked. Really nostalgic day :). Came home at about 2. Saturday was over, sunday had started.
Sunday gave me time to lazy around the house. Started with Knuth. Pretty interesting. I am also starting a secret SOS project. Coded for the SOS bootsector from scratch (assembly and all!)
In the evening I was suppose to go to Roopali at 7:30. But Indo-pak Under-19 World cup semi-final was getting interesting. Watched it till the point where India had some hopes of winning and left for Roopali at 8 when all the hopes were lost. Ferguson Rd. on a Sunday evening is like a Mela, only worse. People just roam around the street doing absolutely nothing. Very irritating! Then went on MG Rd which was deserted compared to FCRd. Had a nice dinner at Mainland China, then Kulfi at JM Rd.
Gotup early morning on Monday. Mount, Varsha and me went to Mumbai by coolcab. Total Waste of money it was. In Mumbai, went to shoppers stop, bought new Norah Jones CD (which i was listening to a few minuted ago) and a book called Jitterbug perfume. The album is good. Very peaceful, jazz and blues kind of thing. Came back from mumbai in the night by MSRTC volvo, much better than the stupid coolcab.
And today I will leave for Bangalore by 7o'clock bus. Expecting a nice trip with some nice movies (high hopes, i know). Ciao!
