Its not always that one needs to do something useful. Let me travel back in time into the realms of my head and see what I had been upto.
The weekend has been a bit sober. Finally I won over the the stomach bug that had got the better of me for the past week. The promise of writing a blog post has suddenly become a reality.
The past week was routine programming stuff and I got to test drive a whole lot of cars. Nothing special about the whole episode because I found most of the drives less than satisfactory. Nevertheless, the most important fact that I loved the whole drill :)
Two weeks ago...Within a couple of days landing back in Bangalore, I was enjoying my birthday. Surprise cake, a good weekend, an office party. Then I lay my hands on the game 'Uncharted 3'. A birthday gift!!!! And there I was playing Nathan Drake, climbing walls, killing baddies and searching for the Lost City of Atlantis. The city was found only to be home to some real evil stuff. Finally, the adventure was over and I had conquered 'Uncharted 3'. I loved it?? Hell yeah!!!
Three Weeks ago, Barely hours after I got a big raise at work, I was boarding a train. 12 hours of being at the mercy of the Indian Railways, I was finally in Goa. A holiday that was long due came to materialize. Lots of beautiful beaches, rented car, long drives, midnight ice-cream and beautiful Goan food. The whole stay was absolutely beautiful. The best part of the stay was I didnt know the time or the day of the week. It was holidaying at its best :)
Four weeks ago...The IPL was well on . Ganguly's team had begun to falter. It all started at the Chinnaswamy stadium I believe, when all of us were in the middle of the Gayle storm that derailed Pune Warrior's campaign. The highlight was the 5 sixers in the over by Chris Gayle. It wasn't a planned trip to the stadium. I just got lucky coz my friend turned up with a couple of extra tickets for the match.
When it all began....The month of march was grueling. My patience with life was put to the test. That's when I did something that's so unexpected of me. Decided to venture all by myself into the Gaming store and picked up 5 of my favourite game titles. Finally decided that I'll not do what's expected of me, but do what I love the most. Play the game :) and enjoy my cricket on TV :)
StackOverflowError!!!! I'm back in the present. What did I do the past few weeks??? I did what I loved the most. Those are the times when one's at the happiest :) Its not always that you get time to do what you love. But when you indulge once a while, it keeps u running for the rest of the year :)
