Back from the break

Its been a long time since I posted. So whats been happening. I took a long break from work, spent 4 days with my parents and another 8 in bangalore. Though the leave was taken with the noble intention of studying, that was the last thing I did. I did watch a lot of movies though. Among the 20 movies that I watched 3 of them really caught my fancy. The first being a tamil movie named - Naan avan ellaie a guy cheats 4 women by marrying all of them and later after being caught, he proves in the court that he was not that person who cheated the women just by talking smartly. Really good movie. The next movie was - A few good men. This is also a courtroom drama starring Jack Nicholson and Tom Cruise. It shows how you always dont need evidence to win a case. A lot of it just playing with psychology. And then the last movie I watched - Pyar ke side effects was really amazing. I had always wondered why Rahul Bose teamed up with Mallika for a movie, but after seeing the movie I realised that he had chosen the right movie.

I also got a new mobile phone. I did spend one whole evening looking at N95 and HTC touch. In every shop when I asked for the N95 the salesman first statement was - 'Its 25000 sir'. As if I didnt know. I agree I dont look like the person who would buy a phone for 25000, but then I would suggest that the salesmen shouldnt go by looks. After all today's youngsters have a lot of money and the urge to spend! But then after a lot of contemplation I decided not to go for it. I spent another evening looking for the phone W200i from sony ericsson. And none of the shops had any stock. Finally I got the phone on the 3rd day. I think its a good choice. It cost me 4995. I also took the change of Rs 5 after paying 5000.

Then I wrote the CAT. That is one thing I screwed up big time. Even after spending nearly 6 months improving my maths, quant was the section that I screwed up. So that means another year goes down the drain. Neither do I have any interest in work at present. Sometimes I feel I should just resign from my job and sit at home and do nothing!

And I had Death by Chocolate after a long time!
