Yipee- this is my life

This piece is inspired by Sindhu.

I can't say I love this place - a bit difficult when its pouring rain like now .. But I do love my house and especially when its empty like now :-)))))))))

getting up to bird song and not an alarm .. when I feel like it..
being free from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m to go out, browse, watch tv, eat or do nothing.....
being able to buy whatever books I want finally instead of textbooks....
not having to listen to some awful music all day long....
been on a diet for the past week and have lost 200gm
have a nice gossip group on telephone
have an appreciative group for my blog
have a team mate who earns the money for all expenses
have a tuition group who are my evening entertainment
only have to do basic cooking since there are no demanding kids
I can use the computer/tv whenever I want to
Im healthy and happy

doesnt this sound like a great life?

Come on lets hear it from everyone....

hi everybody,

life is hectic.  just got the income tax filed after loosing all ramshs accounts and details. had to listen to a lot of ----- before i found them in the nick of time that is on 28th.  

sanjay is going as noddy for his class fancy dress. my choice as it was supposed to be easy and cheap but slowly turningg nerve racking as i have to make a thermocol car ,paint it, get a noddy cap from i dont know where and sinmultaneously teach him 8 lines of the noddy song about the car. all this by 2nd august.

please somebody help. suggestions and ideas are welcome.  sajit is brimming with ideas---as a couch potatoe.  maybe he can go as one for his scholl fancy dress. i am sure he will win it.

i remember dressing one of the kids as a potatoe ,

yippeee... my first ever blog!

hi everyone....
back out of hibernation....
primarily writing this coz i have exams and trying to do everything except study...

since u've already heard about all the weird stuff that goes on in this place from darshini, i'm not going to bore u with all that.
but i love this place.... i really do...
getting up half an hour before class....
sleeping through the afternoon....
found a friend who likes drinking coffee at 2 in the morning...
formed a nice gossip group...
found a girl who keeps buying books i can borrow...
have a nice team mate who does most of the work in our assignments...
and too busy to be bored....

having fun,
loving life,
sindhu

ps- for people who have been complaining that i never call since i came to XIM(unlike darshini, who found the time in spite of her busy schedule?) i would like to point out that i never called up people much even when i was in madras... so at least i'm being consistent.

pps- i would like to make a very important clarification- i definitely did not describe the food here as good/tasty/nice/dont know what dachu was complaining about, or any other positive adjective. i merely said that it was not as bad as i expected... its kinda like it was at NIFT, and we merely eat to exist. so please do not stop feeling sorry for me.

Family in the News

M.Sivalingam, a dermatologist living in Sivananda Colony, points out that apartments are easy to live in because of reasons of security and maintenance.
But, these are having a huge impact on the drinking water situation in the city. Where is water for all of them , he asks.
from an article titled
Water situation may become serious -Poor monsoon will impact ground water level also, says Coimbatore Mayor.
in the HIndu dated 26.8.08

How this came about was- The Mayor dropped in to talk to Appa- he does this fairly regularly. And while they were chatting about general amenities and the opposite flats which have not been occupied because of lack of water ; the Hindu reporter called the Mayor to ask him about the serious water shortage in Cbe this year ( water is being supplied once in 4 days for two hours - situation which can drive Appa and athai around the bend as you can imagine) . Midway the Mayor handed over the phone to Aoppa who of course, took the chance to give him an earful.

Next day, he was in the paper:-))

Last week, PC's photograph appeared in two newspapers including the Hindu. To illustrate docs on strike wearing a token black badge. Locals had broken up a local nursing home when a patient died . so docs were on strike in Ooty for two days. When the reporter came to the hospital to take a photo, naturally only PC was there so he was duly photographed. Not being Appa, he didnt give him a soundbyte as well.

At this rate, we shall have to start a family album of newspaper cuttings :-)
