The Weekend in 20 Steps...

Another super weekend came to an end yesterday... probably the last in the series of weekends!!!

Next weekend is going to be very different with what I know as of now... Not sure if I am super excited about it right now but I am getting used to the thought :)

Let’s talk about the last two days right now though :)

1. Friday evening shopped for some curtain cloth with parents...

2. Friday early evening drove to Priya and had a small DFC get together... and i managed a peg of my favourite Absolut Peppar.... i love that flavour and the taste of it...

3. Managed to get Aro and Subbu at the party too...

4. It had rained nice and cool by the time we left, and then I drove to Gurgaon with them to meet Shaji and his super son Shawn!!!

5. We were on our way to Shaji’s place when Mon called and told me that I had to come to Dublin (the disc of Maurya Sheraton)

6. I stopped Shaji and told him that I had to go... Dropped Aro and Subbu in Dwarka and drove quickly to Dublin...

7. So between meeting the DFC gang once and then meeting them again, I had already driven like 60 odd kms...

8. Dublin is the worst disc I have ever been to... The DJ was dead, and the sound pathetic... I was missing my two outings to the Orange Room with friends and how we came out all exhausted after dancing for hours together... Dublin did not even make me feel like dancing... Highly unrecommeded folks!!!!

9. The good thing was meeting a few friends again.... that made up for most of the loss of good music though...

10. Quick drive back to Dwarka... actually pretty fast (took li'il over 10 minutes between Dhaula Kuan and Dwarka sector-9) saw a little bit of Varekai, and then called it a day...

11. Woke up darn late... and tried to watch a few movies but did not really watch anything...

12. Finally moved out around 4ish and went to ASK, where I gave them the cheque of Rs. 10000. (I will give the rest of the money as soon as I have it) Discussed with Dr. Khan about various issues that we as bloggers can target talking about... something might come up on Chai ki Dukaan too in near future...


13. Time to move to Shaji's place now... We reached and realised that he was not home and his phone was not reachable either... so we decided to move back to Dwarka... but stopped in between when Shaji called and said that he was coming back!!! While waiting, I managed some hot chocolate fudge at Nirula’s.... I think I like the last weekend's create your sundae better...

14. Shaji wanted to see Varekai too... So me and Aro drove back to Dwarka from Gurgaon and came back with the CD... Varekai went on till midnight, and by that time one of my friends also finished her work at office!!!

15. Picked her up, and drove back home after dropping her home... The ice cream walas at India Gate had already packed, but it was nice to see at least 200 people around the place at 0100 hours in the night when we drove past...

16. Sunday started very late.... A friend called me and said that he hates me because whenever he goes to his girlfriend's desk, she has a window of the Chai Ki Dukaan in front of her :)

17. Went out shopping with Bindiya... got myself two stunning Kurta’s!!! And a nicey frame for the wall... pretty neat stuff!!! I had posted a picture of Bindiya on flickr sometime back and decided to get it printed and framed and give it to her!!! It was awesome to see the shocked look on her face when she opened the packet!!!! Its nice to do certain things which you are least expected to do :)

18. By the time I came back, Aro and Subbu were home already... Had called Subbu to meet pa... Later, picked up Tushar, Went to the market, got a whole bunch of VCDs of which I kept a few....Arobindo, the bugger bought the entire collection of Calvin and Hobbes too :'( what an ASS he is !!! I don't like him for it...

19. Dropped Tushar back, went to the Tshop... and had a few teas... Subbu was not too happy
with the milk in the Darjeeling Tea, and Aro was not happy that I ordered ice tea for him... So I had the Fresh Lime Masala and some Peach Ice Tea...

20. The Day ended with the movie "Strangers"... Surprisingly I had not heard about this movie ever before and it turned out to be one of the best I have seen with incredible performances by Kay Kay Menon and Jimmy Shergil... I am not going to spoil the movie for you by telling what it’s about, but it’s a MUST watch if you have not seen it yet!!!

And Monday started as usual :) it’s already 4 and I don't know how the entire day passed by... I have been busy I guess :)

Nice!

  2. Awesome weekend that was! And although Pt#16 makes you feel good, ours was better - you missed the tea!

    Next weekend will be totally different, for both of us!

    heheeh... add my last weekend and I have done more than people manage in a month :)

    i loved it...

    I have been fine and you?

    oh good :)

    I miss my regular visitors :) and keep wondering where are they... when they come back, its so nice :) even if they come back with a different ( read longer) names )

    and thank you :) I just did what I could :) the rest happened because God uncle helped in the form of so many kind people around :)

    # Subbu...
    yaar mast thaa weekend... and pt. 16... i am sure... that moment was an oscar winning moment but too bad i missed it... koi foto hi le leta us chai ki yaar :)

    shaaji is good at whiskey, lets leave him to that only :) and i guess he had smelled our Absolut Mandarin a li'il too much :) the last night...

    # Nidhi...
    yes i did... not only because of the plot but a lot of other things... when you have been up on stage you look at many more things than just the predictability of a movie and hence you tend to like a few of them even if they are conventional flops...

    RGVs's Aag for example is a pathetic movie, but i can probably mute the movie and watch most of it because of the way he has used light in the picture...

    #Kashmira..
    :) yes itna saara...

    hope you have rocking weekend soonest :)
