Today was quite an eventful day. The day went thus
I woke up in the morning at 5:30 am when mom told me that the eclipse was about to start. After washing up, went and switched on the TV as the sun would not be visible yet. Mom put a reputed Kannada news channel where a couple of professors were discussing eclipse with the anchor. It was quite amusing actually, not fascinating though. I distinctly remember the female on the show. They were discussing how Kannada is not used when teaching science and there is no Kannada literature when it comes to science. She went on to say that Newton published most of his work in Latin and that proved that English is not necessary. But she failed to realise that English was not the internationally accepted language at that time at all. Anyway, I went up and down the roof for the entire time to get a glimpse of the eclipse through my mom’s X-RAY plate. Luck did not favour me and the entire time clouds hid the sun behind them 😦 . Damn! After watching the eclipse on TV from all over Aisa, I felt oddly satisfied.
Later I logged onto the net and I met a really good friend online after very LONG time. We talked and my friend was really happy today. More than I have ever seen. But then as we talked, I got to know that this friend was in Bangalore but could not contact me as I had not given my new number 😦 . Damn! After talking for nearly an hour, I felt really happy
Then I met another friend with whom I write a blog. We were talking about the new posts and how to host our blog on a server so that we can customize it in a better way. After breaking our heads on domain names and servers, I finally realised that the server that was hosting my blog was displaying its own ads. The whole week’s effort went in drain! 😦 . Damn! But learnt a lot in during this endeavor
Then later I had to go to temple with my mom as all the astrologers had told that the eclipse was bad for me. So, we went to two temples and mom registered us for some rituals throughout the month so that nothing bad will happen. I kept telling her about the law of attraction, if you say something will happen, it WILL happen! Damn! She didnt listen to my words! While coming back we had dosa 😀
Then when I returned, I was simultaneously pinged by 5 friends each with different requests. Read this post, Search this file for me, give me this software, throw me some project ideas and a personal question from one of my friend. It was the fastest I have typed in my life. No one was kept waiting for more than 30 seconds 😀 . Finally late in the night, that is now, I am chatting along with friends and writing this post. Will go to bed soon, but this day was very eventful considering I am jobless. Literally 😉
