4 Days of Fun !!

Just sitting by the side of balcony. Enjoying the weather. It’s raining here in Bangalore after a long time. The aroma of rain and sand is all over the place. And what better way to enjoy, when its a Sunday evening and there is no current at home. I can here the sound of generator van on the road. There is some kind of festival tonight in the near by temple. Lot of things going through my mind. How am I gonna pay credit card bills. Whom I shall borrow money from. Thinking of the last few days of the week was amazing.

On Wednesday, 23rd December 2009, after the unusual gala night at office(were we all danced like crazy). We all went to the Movie Avatar. Its an amazing movie. Although the story line is not that great (kind of Bollywood movie) the 3D effects are fresh and new concept. There were scenes in the movie that will shake you up in your seat. Giving you a feeling as if objects are literally coming out at you, from the screen.

Next day On Thursday,24th December 2009 we had office as usual. But this time we were going for the premier show of 3 idiots the much awaited movie of Year 2009 by Aamir khan. It was in REXX Theater. Rupam some how managed to get ticket for the same from bookmyshow.com. We didn't go with much expectations. By again like the movie avatar, this movie turned out to be good one. First half of the movie went in minutes, the second half was a bit draggy thought. Specially the birth of child scene (was a remainder that, hey you are watching a Bollywood movie,he he) again I would say it was a good movie and must watch. I would personally recommend you to watch these two movies. In spite of, me not being a movie buff. After the movie was over it was X’mas time. We went straight to the church. Attended the prayer ceremony. Came back home.

25th December 2009 was a holiday and we had already spent the whole day doing nothing. At evening it was a usual confusion. What shall be done were to party, whose place to party etc. Finally we got BBQ from Rajpa and spent all night gossiping over chicken and paneer (though they were not as tastly as Rajpa’s). It was almost 2 by the time we went to sleep. Before going to sleep me and Rohan decided that we would go for a short bike trip next day (as we had got our bike serviced)

We started 26th December 2009, a bit late. Had breakfast by 12 noon. We decided to go to a fort at Magadi road which, to my rough idea was 60 kms from home. We started by 1 and zoomed our bike through the NICE corridor. But wait. Where is the fort ? We inquired by the village people and it was hard to explain. As people knew only Kannada. Unfortunately we couldn't find any fort. But we came across a dam. We reached the entrance of the dam only to find that we needed to have a written permission to get inside. We tried buttering and bribing the guard. But all went in vein as he didn't let us in. We spent some time there chit chatting. And came back home by 4 ripping the bike for 125 kms. Evening had arrived and we were unsure of what we were going to do ? Amin was at home, he called up some guy @ FUGA to get us an entry (DJ Ivan was playing) Me and Rohan rushed to FUGA and fortunately we got the entry without much hassle. I was literally tired of dancing. As It was an extended party that went on till 12.30 PM (something very rare in Bangalore).

Didn't do much today ie. Sunday 27th December 2009. Was at home relaxing. After a expensive week, at the time when I should not be spending much. Because of the pending bills and new years knocking the door next week.

So over all one of the best weeks for me in Bangalore since I arrived in 2003(after the Chikmaglur bike trip). There is no current @ home yet. And I am wondering what next. Time is passing by and the fear of getting back to office tomorrow (Monday fever) is badly eating my head and giving a depressed feeling.
