Life has become really busy these days......and yes its not all work :-)
Let me get something off my chest first......i scratched the car and driving record yesterday......and the sad part is that i was able to execute a very difficult parking manoeuvre perfectly and then scraped a pillar while coming out from the parking...it is a very bad scratch and i just hope that it can be painted over....
The good news....my car arrives in a few days....i shud be getting it by this weekend...after a lot of trials, tribulations and frustrations i hope this journey will end happily.....but as PP says ki jab tak car aa nahi jati main kuch nahi bolne wala.
The poor guys PP and deepankar booked their Alto a week before me and they had no waiting period while there was a huge wait for Swift....still all of us are getting our cars at around the same time this week.......
Yesterday was the much hyped overrated 'friendship day' and coincidentally as luck wud have it, i was able to spend it with Manju and Shivi, two of the best friends god cud have ever given me....we went to Mocha.....but that was another story which i must tell some time.....


And yes, Harry Potter - i had never imagined i cud behave this way again!!! going to the coffee lounge on other floors, sitting in secluded corners and reading the book....taking the book to lunch to read it in the queue!! chalo at least some enthusiasm still exists somewhere in me.....all is not lost!!! the book was good and epitomises the saying "the journey is more exciting than the destination".....isliye when people tried to bug me by discussing the ending, i was not at all bothered because i was not really bothered by who dies and who lives in the end.....and people who think that harry potter is all about that are sadly mistaken....its a mermerising fantasy and at the same its about ordinary life....how they all deal with internal struggles, how they feel and behave like normal human beings (ok...ok ...normal in feelings, not actions!) and how their natural goodness help them conquer their baser instincts....how u stand up for what u believe is right in spite of everything crumbling around you.....what u really mean when u say "i am always there for u" .....what it means when u realise that all said and done in the end u have to deal with ur destiny all alone......the list cud go on and on......i felt the book was full of life's lessons which we can identify with and of course a very interesting read about the wizard world!
on another note, the book being the last one, rowling overdid herself in death and goriness.....but all of it was really spectacular! the scenes were sketched very vividly and the pictures cud instantly form in my mind......the movie makers will have a tuf task ahead and a very very high expectation level to fulfil....

and yes, finally joined a very LS gym.......
