Full Tension Release

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Midsems ended today. Most of them went pretty well. Today has brought to a close two weeks of tension.

My seminar’s done, the midsems are done, and there’s nothing to preoccupy myself with for almost another month. Except the usual studying but that’s enjoyable so no worries.

So here’s how I’m going to relax.

I’m going to rent movies from Attractions (the VCD library) and watch them at night lying in my bed with the lights turned off and a packet of Nutyumz and Kurkure by my side.

I’m going to go to Biblio (where I’ve finally paid all the membership dues and given my two passport-size photographs) and borrow a few classics for the nights when I’m not watching movies.

I’m going to call people, since the Airtel is now offering STD at Rs 1.20 a minute if you pay 75 paise a day, and throws in calls to Europe and the US at Rs. 10 a minute in the bargain.

On Friday, I’m going to go home. And then, on Saturday I’m going to have pizza. It’s been three months since I had pizza, and I’ve had mozzarella cravings for the past three weeks.

I can’t understand the logic behind Pizza Hut stuffing their crusts with chicken. Why would anybody want to stuff the crust with chicken when they can stuff it with cheese? Then again, I can’t understand a lot of stuff, so to each his own.

On Saturday, I shall also be meeting Vikram, who is squeezing all the wild things he normally does in a year into his two month vacation. Vikram is aghast that Ishaan and Rishi have forced me to become a short-haired, clean-shaven, and above all sharif human being, and is intent on undoing the damage. So Saturday promises to be fun.

Sunday’s the Mock CAT, and back to the grind. But what the heck, the grind’s what I’ve been doing since July. I think I’ve got the hang of it now.
