Final weekend

Finally, the week of meeting comes along.. will meet my sweety soon...
weekend was spent getting some house work.. didn't study as usual.. have to HAVE TO

met up with the GSTI gang of yesteryears.. at Powai... thanks to Subrat, met with Somdev, Ashwin, Deepak Agarwal, Vishvesh and Sameer.

upset bujju today scolding her.. but she does not understand sometimes..or maybe chooses not to

bought a puzzle for Avani. Hope she will like it and will use it.
somewhere i thought that all this gifting will make those people think I am like going to be the perpetual giver for them.. some expectations I need to limit up.. and I hope to be more careful in trying to understand all these aspects... and act accordingly... 'cos the woman will want to show off to her people and will approach me to do that..

politically correct writing is more important keeping future in mind..

figured out my asset/liability breakup.. roughly and I hope I will be able to correct the spendings on
a. insurance- this has to be a term insurance and reduce the rest. have spent 7.8 lac already on premium.. try to surrender and get the rest back for future investment
b. monthly expenses - reduce this specifically.. phone

got the HLN stuff for the next few months and also to lend to the Hyd people. that's another set of expense I need to revert back by making them members... hope to do this on 25th itself.

interestingly, today I was able to buy the tickets for 24th.. LUCKiLY..
I thought the bookings will open tomorrow but apparently, on 19th, they would have opened for 24th - 5 days from today.. so luckily, was able to buy tatkal, paying 482/- bucks for a 330/- ticket... what a bunch of cheats the railways have become...

watched Animal Planet -the Masai Mara scavenger series, the Wildebeeste river crossing and the feeding event.. an awesome spectacle of Nature which could not have been caught in any better way than the way it was presented... an annual feeding ritual for the crocs, the vultures, the herons, and all other scavengers which 'plan and prepare' for this event of the year, waiting an easy capture... all towards satisfying one simple natural need... hunger.
life's cruel when you look at all this.. but that's what is life.. we have to learn to get over it and do what we have to do.. just as the Wildebeeste are programmed AND follow without question - the crossing of the river after 4 months of walk and dying along the way... that's life
