I have now been in the home since a
fortnight and will nearly 30 more days.Its really nice to be returning to your
home after a long spell of hard work and tension filled nights(due to exams
that preceded the vacation) where I felt racing against time since
the course work was too heavy and time equally short.Now I have no priority and
can do whatever (and whenever) I want.Its sometimes cool that way but on a long
run it will be boring.I would be glad to return back to my university life
after this much needed break.The greatest benefit of staying in the home is
getting to eat what I want! :) Earlier when I was at home I had to eat what
mama prepared but now its different!Everyone sympathies with me since
the food is really,kind of sucks,in the mess!So I can demand anything I want in
terms of food and get it.Before I used to sulk on the table and had to eat
whatever was prepared.See,friends,that’s the benefit of staying away from
home.Am treated like a queen on the table!! lol…
Since its a long vacation I have got a
hordes of really nice books to complete but my writing is moving on a snail’s
pace….sad!I had left the practice of writing since 4 months and its taking time
to catch up the speed.Hope I will make it.Now,as far the reading is concerned I
completed the book ‘Dongri to Dubai’ and now I am reading Richard Dawkins ‘God Delusion
and my favourite William Dalrymple’s ‘Holy mountains’ simultaneously. Reading
‘Dongri to Dubai’ was like watching an action packed thriller.Its about Dawood
Ibrahim and the history of the underworld.Its quite good and you never get
bored.’Nine lives’ transports me back to the past and present in a very fast
manner but I have always enjoyed reading history.’God Delusion’ says that god
is a delusion and defends atheism,although I am a believer I really like
the way Dawkins defends himself and gives the examples
of religious fundamentalism.Anyone wanting to deal with a
little philosophical angle and intellectual arguments regarding god
and atheism,this book can be interesting.
In the meantime I watched the much hyped movie
‘Talaash’ with my best buddy who is also on a vacation (from JNU).But we had
expected to much of suspense and realism but it only with
an impractical illusion and paranormal stuff.But I must say it was
kind of good since you can know nothing till the last.One friend actually
had posted the story on FB so I knew everything before :( Crazy guy he
is!!
That’s all I have to say.While my
sister is appearing exam I am enjoying my vacation! I am really enjoying and
more plans await me with friends and family….and I will be here for a while.So
now I must rush and take my noodles…bye till then….
