I conducted my second quiz at K-Circle. Got praised to the skies. One guy tells me yesterday that I renewed his faith in quizzing.

MAN! :-D I thought RECW would be the last bastion of quizzing for me….I mean, c’mon, after I go out into the Big, Bad World, I would not have the time to indulge myself so much. No free time. No team. The last eight months were that way, I guess. Enough music and books to keep me occupied, enough interesting people around, work to be done – but yes, I WAS missing something…and I realised it was this. The rush of blood to the head that accompanies a wild guess that hits the mark – tell me something that even comes close to this and I will say you are God. But no, quizzing is something that’s gonna stay. I hope the day I have my first shot at Ecstacy, it manages to surpass this feeling.

On that note – Yuv Taal ’03 was a youth festival at Hyderabad Public School, held over the weekend, and there were 4 quizzes in all. Won three of them, first prize in the Movies quiz. Second in the General and the Advertising&Media quiz ( wonders never cease! )

The best part is, I never appeared in the prelims of two of them…

Vasu, you would be proud of me. Someone we know got a free pass to the Colonial Cousins concert. And I had to choose between a chance to meet Hariharan in person and attending a quiz. And guess what? I ditched Hariharan. Tell me whether I am sane or not.

I am going VERY slow on “From Hell”. Maybe 6-7 pages a day. And what the heck, I got nightmares on Saturday. Nightmares! ME!
Am reading, among others, “White Teeth” by Zadie Smith; Manfredi’s “Alexander: Child of a Dream”, good one; about to start Gordon Dickson’s “Straw Dogs”

Hey, just found out that Gopal Srinivasan from ARRfangroups is the same Gopal Srinivasan who, along with Mudaliar started the RV Quiz Corp.

Cash, da, I hope you liked the cds….I thought there were too less of them….
