Random events…

The sighing friend’s college had an exhibition, and since I was doing nothing that saturday I decided to go over and checkout what these artsy types do. Turned out to be an eye opener. It was interesting to say the least, and some of the posters were strong, and while I am sure some of the reactions they evoked in me were not what their authors (or is it creators?) intended, they sure did evoke a response in me. My grateful thanks to the sighing friend for being so patient and explaining to me what every thing was about (and it was hard, because I am clueless about all this stuff).

I got a new phone :D :D. The first time I have bought an electronics item on impulse without having done adequate research on it. It was love at first sight (don’t worry, enough girls are doing it to me these days as well ;) ). And once I played around with it, I was sold. It has everything I wanted except wifi, but then with the GPRS working out so well, I don’t really need it. Ah, I am in love :).

Well, the new phone is a nice toy as well to play with. I had loads of fun catching people sleeping at office and clicking those photos and uploading them to facebook.

I just realized. I don’t have the patience for folks who are dumb. Dumb being very subjective. This lack of patience is really shocking, but at this stage I am not sure how/why I have become so impatient. Time to work on patience. (And yes, it was another pretty girl for whom I fell for till she opened her mouth..)

Kaajal called up the other evening. She wanted me to come over the weekend. The conversation that followed was hilarious

Dhaval (whoops. This is now going into dangerous territory. Time to think quickly): Kaajal, you should ask Mummy. She will tell you (and I hope forgive me for putting her in such a situation )

Anyway, my aunt tells me that Kaajal expects me to be there every sunday. Now that is going to be really interesting.

The other night at Raj’s place we all played Uno. That was one hilarious game which lasted forever with Raj and Jason being at it for about half an hour. But that has to be the best game of uno EVER! Thanks guys!

I have become a big fan of The Big Bang Theory. What is scary is the way I can relate to the show and how many of those habits I have. I am quite obsessively compulsive about how I do some things. Like the way I like my computer to work, the way I eat my food, the place I sit, the way the kitchen has to run.  And doing it any other way irritates me so much that I feel like exploding. Or maybe the utter inability to speak to pretty girls (there are a few exceptions to that, but mainly because I have sorta become comfortable with them.). Or the ability to dress up. Man, my dress sense sucks utterly. The joke goes on that my share of fashion sense went to my sister and (I like to think) their share of intelligence came to me :P. But oh no, I am becoming a big bang theory character.

Speaking of big bang theory characters, I did not really like Penny (she is attractive, yes). She came about as a shallow person, with very standard girly tastes. But the last episode (where the new tenant, Alicia comes), we got to see a totally different side of her. Made me feel ashamed for having judged her the way I did. Now Penny is my second favourite character from the show. (Of course Sheldon remains the favourite )

One of the best evenings ever. Gooba came home and we gamed. We gamed like mad. Those few hours on Need for Speed: Carbon were just mind blowing. I don’t think I have had that much fun racing in a long long time :D. Dude, you rock! Now if only I can get Pankaj over and kick his ass!!

–

Another awesome evening. Wandering Tuna at Little Italy. It was the first time after you know what happened with you know who at you know where :D. (And you know who is the same person who got bugged :P.)

You guys rock absolutely!

The chef has left the kitchen. Bid farewell to him on saturday early morning. Will miss having a room mate, but good riddance dude. My house is mine again :D. Seriously though, awesome two months, the only regret being we did not game enough. I will always remember “The Only Place” where NG brought about so much entertainment. And also “Previously on Autowalla”, the series that will feature on this blog sometime soon :D. Memories will always remain and a few photos as well

tglx told me that kernel hackers are supposed to have a life. peterz thinks its silly expecting kernel hackers to have a life. I’ve been doing all silly userspace stuff for the past 2 months. Does that mean I am supposed to have a life?

I managed to confuse akpm the other day. Excerpts at the Quotes of the day section here. Don’t worry. I made it all fine as well.

I guess that’s it for this edition. More the next time I blog :).
