In another few hours..I'll be leaving for Kerala for my brother's marriage. Its a huge event indeed and everyone's very excited about the same. Packing is almost finished. Mom's been constantly screaming for the past 2 days to gather everything. We were ignoring it till it got unbearable..and finally started today afternoon. Everything is almost done now. I gatta transfer some music to my ipod. These days I've been listening to these awesome new thrash metal bands on the scene. Specifically, Evile, Purified in Blood and Warbringer are keeping my ears busy and simultaneously irritating everyone else's in the house. Daath also released their new self-titled album which is again awesome. This new movement (referred to as the new wave of thrash metal) is really keeping me very excited. Its all I do these days. Anyways more on it later.
I had to make a painting for my grand-uncle (mom's uncle) in Kerala. He had asked me to do it in February. My superhuman ability of procrastination resulted in me not starting the thing till yesterday. Mom had been continuously asking me to do it all these months. She gave up hope saying that I wont do it. However, I stayed up and finished the entire thing...much to my mother's surprise. She was astonished as to how I was able to complete it on time. Well..mom..thats how we software engineers roll! B-)
I've resumed my running. I am averaging 13 kms for the past 2 weeks. Well..its a start. I am consciously spending more time on it. They say the night's darkest before dawn..lets hope the dawn is not far away.
However, I am a bit apprehensive about the li'l break that I'll be having next week. Lets see.
I've a flight at 5:55 am tomorrow. That basically means I've to get up at the wee hours tomorrow morning. I slept in the afternoon which will make things really difficult as well. But, when you have the loudest alarm clock in the world screaming at you constantly to wake up (reas as: Mom)..you shouldn't worry.
