I had planned to do tons of things in this mini vacation of mine. But, it has been mostly reading books (I’m reading a book which is not exactly a novel, and definitely not a text book :P), watching movies and dozing off. I prefer to call it a 'mini' vacation though it’s not exactly so. Maybe I feel so coz I’m mostly confined to home - thanks to the bandhs. This is turning out to be more of a ‘Staycation’ (A term introduced to me by a friend in 'Staycation').
I finally read ‘Tuesdays with Morrie’ – which I’ve been planning to read from the first year of engineering after a lecturer recommended it, and ‘One Night At The Call Center’ - which was the only remaining Chetan Bhagat book to be read. Right now I’m reading ‘Blink’ (recommended by a friend). I’m hoping to write the book reviews before the end of this mini vacation.
As for the movies – I watched ‘Wake Up Sid’ at last. It was pathetic that I couldn’t get the tickets and had to watch it on DVD, that too after such a long time. I watched '2012' too - which is another pathetic story – I couldn’t get the tickets for many days, and when I finally got them about 2 weeks back, the show was cancelled due to the bandhs (Thanks again). I finally watched it on Sunday IN A THEATRE, which I’m very thankful for, coz I was dreading I would have to watch the movie on a DVD – an experience, which as described by my friend – ‘felt like match boxes were falling apart’ :D
And then I watched a couple more movies on TV. Lotsa movie reviews to write! Hehehehehe (Evil laugh)
As for the dozing off part – it amazes me as to how much I can sleep. I was like Kumbakarna on some days!
Also planned for the vacation was the putting up of the Christmas tree, which I did not coz I was too lazy :D. Somehow, this year I did not find a single Christmas tree which was elegantly decked in any mall, maybe they felt lazy too :D
My next posts will be book reviews, hopefully, if I have the time :P.
