Post weekend blog is a big one.....welcoming your brickbats..
On friday immeditately after I created my blog I went home. I was damn tired and went to sleep even while reading frederick Forsyth's Avenger. I had to wake up at 5 to play shuttle with AK,Ksri and my brother Senthil. AK is my closest friend and we have been friends since we were born. We would remind you of Bubba and Gump. Ksri is another friend of mine since childhood. We were close till a petty fight broke us up and then we started talking since college. He is certainly good company. On saturday morning I woke up at 5 promptly. I woke up a friend by calling her up since she was preparing for exams. I will henceforth refer to as "friendi" in this blog. she was very thankful and I went to play badminton feeling like a gr8 samaritan.
I played poor badminton the first two matches. Only my brother senthil played well against AK who is a pro.Then we came home at 7 and I went to have breakfast with Ksri forgetting that I had yoga class. My yoga instructor was furious at me. But I was saved from his wrath by my friend from Anand who had come to pay me a visit after his trip from Australia. He is a nice person and I spent the next 1 hour listening to his experiences at Sydney.So nice to see him again.
Then I came back home exhausted and went to sleep. I got up at 12 and I had a sharp pain in my knee and elbow. Something was nagging me. I had forgotten something important. At 12.45 it struck me when I got a call from Pacha, Pipes' brother studying at IIT. I was supposed to be at IIT M for the open quiz and I had been waiting for it for a week. I couldnt move thanks to my knee. I apologised to Pacha and wished him luck for the prelims.He was cursing me for pulling him to the quiz. I had my lunch and I was feeling depressed for having missed te quiz. To add to it, I got my airtel bill which showed a rather gargantuan amount and I was flummoxed. I realised that it was due to my ISD calls to my brother and friends and SMS to online friends which had contributed to this huge bill. I slowly got over it as I was lying my bed for a siesta. I swore that I would never call ISD or STD unless purely necessary and I would use my mobile wisely.
I woke up at 4 and found the Pakis screwing up India's test win. I went to play with my cousins and friends at my cousin Santosh/Satish's house. Played till 6.30 and went to ksri's house to watch sex and the city DVD. Time flies as you watch this nice serial.I was borught back to reality I got a call from my friendi. I told her I would call back as Ksri was with me.
I went to the STD booth and spoke to her for 15 minutes. Couldnt say it was kadalai. we were speaking like good friends. Then called up Tressa and spoke to her like forever telling her about everything that had happened since my last call. Tressa is my closest friend(girl) in college and I looked upon her always as an elder sister. Then I called up Muni my CTS friend and told him about my mobile bill. He consoled me and told me that life was fun and I needed to enjoy and he asked me not to worry about it.I went home at 10 and was severely warned by my parents who were wondering where I had gone since 3 in the evening. i was so exhausted that I apologised and went to sleep.
On Sunday morning I woke up at 5 and went for badminton. I forgot to wake up my friendi. badminton went smoothly and we finished 3 matches. I was feeling fine but Ksri was complaining of dizziness and he took a break. Like a hero I suggested more macthes and we started playing. I didnt feel anyhting but sweaty when I got into the car while coming back home. But when we were close to my home I started feeling real dizzy. I felt that I was going to pass out. My arms and legs were shaking. AK drove madly and reached my house quickly. I realised I was dehyrated and went upstairs and had lots of water with glucose. I sat in front of the A/C and asked my mom to give me breakfast. I felt I was going to faint. But I didnt. As I gulped in more water I felt better. The A/c cooled me down. My friend AK came in and told me that I was fine. Then I was back to normal. Then I started eating breakfast with my AK telling me something which would come as a shock to me. I couldnt reveal it here as I have promised to keep it a secret. We spoke to 2 hours about it and I felt better.Then I felt tired and I went to sleep after telling my wipro buddy Raj about what had happened in the morning. He assured I would be fine after some rest.
I went to sleep and woke up 3 hours later and had lunch. Then I went back to sleep again. I woke up at only to hear that my friends were going to play a cricket match at corporation ground. The weather was suddenly nice. It looked like it was about to rain. But it didnt. We played badly in the match against the "Bakery" gang. I scored 1 of 6 balls. pathetic. we lost miserably and we came back home blaming each other for the loss. we werent able to chase 43 in 12 overs.
I came back home at 7 and then went to buy clothes for my birthday next week with parents. I bought 3 T shirts - light and dark grey. I reserved the dark one for my birthday and I am wearing this light grey one at work as I type. It cost me 700 bucks. Normally I would bought clothes for 5k. But I was overridden with the guilt of wasting money on my mobile bill. So for the first time in his post-college life, Navin Kumar shopped less and meaningfully for his birthday. His dad was happy.:)
I came back home and watched sex and the city DVD with Ksri at his place for some more time. Then I went to the STD booth to call up friendi who was awaitng my call. Spoke to her for 10 minutes and wished her luck for today's exams. I went home and continued reading the forsyth book. at about 11 PM, I dozed away without switching off the lights. I woke up at 8 and found that my arms and legs were paining. I cursed myself for not being fit. I finsihed my breakfast and quickly came to office at 9.30. I got to catch up on my work. I will be blogging agin on wednesday. ciao.I will be back later.
