I leave for Guwahati tomorrow. Two weeks vacation with psasidhar with (hopefully ) lots of places to visit. I am going there after a year, no doubt everything will be the same – bad roads, misty mornings, evil relatives, oranges, my room….
Last night there was a distinct chill in the air as I was coming back from Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon ( which, incidentally is a fantastic movie ), and it made me so happy – it’s winter again! My favourite season!
Once upon a time, I would get really psyched up when October ended, because that meant the Guwahati Book Fair was near. The book fair would be held at around the end of December – the usual date was Dec 29, and it continued for about ten to twelve days.
What I am gung-ho about:-
1. home-made food ( which I will get bored of in two days)
2. meeting some cousins and old friends ( subz3r0, you there?) ( again, I will get chaatofied and I know I will end up spending most of my time at home )
3. Diwali with my parents. (hmmm…..no fireworks, of course. I am a Target brat. )
4. My room. I am saying this twice. My room. Hee hee hee ho ho ha ha.
5. Shillong. Which I think I can convince my father to allow us to go on a bike. ( In case you didn’t know, I have the set of the most protective parents in the whole freakin’ world, to whom the combination of “senior” and “motorcycle” spells “doom” )
6. Oranges. Lots of oranges. ( Matrix-like sequence of looooooong shelves whizzing past me, filled to the brim with juicy oranges. Ooh. I am horny. Kind of. )
Wheeee. I just got the DVDs of Roja and Bombay.
Have a great trip, and while you’re having those Oranges, remember serioussam. :D
Sure thing.
I (and most likely psasidhar) will remember you also when I am showing psasi my comics collection – “I bet sam would have liked to be here too.” ;-)
when you get the hiccups, you know whom to blame. :-D
::when you get the hiccups, you know whom to blame.
Thats all right. All I need is a bottle of Worcestershire Sauce…. :P

Er, no, MMDBCH wasn’t the FDFS. :-P It was more like Fifth Day First Show. I hope you’ve seen it by now. :D
( I realised Fifth Day First Show was FDFS too, and thought about confusing you, but ok….)
Happy Diwali to you too. Listen to “Light My Fire” loud on Diwali night – which is going to be my mood music for the festival. hee hee.
Have a great trip, too. :)
Have a great trip, beatzo! I’ll think of you when I play all those games at home…
Woof. Good luck with the blood, gore and quick-saves. And don’t forget the Hard Disk. heh heh. :)

Nope.

Re: Bikewan bhava
Doom still prevails.
On the brighter side, my father’s arranging for a Tata Sumo. If we gotta tapko, my father thinks we should tapko in style. ;-)
Re: Bikewan bhava
Hahahaha
beatzo need that shop’s loc in hyd where you get all the p(eye)r8d stuff
pirated DVDs: Music World, or rather a shop named Music World ( they have pirated the name, even) in Babukhan Estate, Basheerbagh.
pirated games: The shops near Supreme audio (a famous whole-sale dealer)in Koti. ask around.
p.s i am screening this comment. ;-)
Have a lovely time in Guwhati! :) I remember Guwhati used to be our stop when we went to Dinjan where my Dad was posted. That was nearly 12 years back. The only memories of Guwhati are of the waiting room and rains. I’d like to visit the place again. A book fair! WOW!! :D
And winters are amazing, aren’t they?
Anyway, bon voyage (though you might’ve already reached the place by now… :P) Enjoy the vacations!
Cheers,

thanks, sarika. chillin’ out here ( not literally, though, the days are still hot.:)
seems the Book Fair has been scrapped because of internal feuds in the Publication Board, Assam, which was the official body orgnising it. This sucks.:-(
