I’m writing a book. I’ve got the page numbers done. Steven Wright

Woot! Been there and done that. Finally, I got some mental relief to get a seat next to cs once again. And a side benefit is that, I got away from the cool breeze of air conditions in office. Last night, after watching England slump to defeat on penalties, I slept at 3.30am. And today mom woke me up at 8.30am. 5 hours of sleep. Cool enough. I was feeling down but not sleepy. I rushed to office today.

The bank official was going to come today for some work. I was late as usual. Half hour late. Sadly, he came in the afternoon. So all my hard work of coming as early as possible was wasted. Never mind. I had to convince ag to shift places so that I can get place next to cs. I was feeling bored alone. And why should I sit alone if my college mate is there on the other side. I used to hate her talks in the beginning but now, I like it. I feel down if I don’t answer few questions of her. I had to wait till afternoon to get that place. Till that time, I was thinking to myself, am I behaving childishly? Am I going to miss the golden moments of silence? Am I going on the way to engulf myself in a sea of love and affection once I switch places? I mean I am not ready for those love kind of things. But something keeps me telling that I should tell cs what I feel about her. And the other thing tells me to wait and have patience. I’ll go with the flow obviously.

For the first time after joining office, it was that epic day when I could finish eating my tiffin in one go. Wow, today, I enjoyed the company of everyone. I wasn’t afraid of anyone or anything. Few good buddies sitting around, what else I needed? And after lunch, that epic moment arrived when I asked ag for the final time to switch places. He agreed but looked kind of angry. Sorry dude can’t leave the girl. Lol. She was happy to have me there and I was more than happy to get there. Both of us suddenly started interacting with everyone in a vivid manner. Jokes and trolls flowing around. I guess many of them should have noticed the changed mood of me and cs once we got to sit next to each other. She still annoys me but I loved it. Social interaction, what was required for both of us was in a smooth flow. I was happy and relaxed. I guess she was too. But not a great day on work front. What I did was covered up 1.10 hours of video tutorials that too not in depth. I feel disturbed in office and couldn’t concentrate the way I can at home. Goddamn, they won’t give us a day off as well. Cs is a gossip queen. I just told her what I overheard about the training process. She went on telling it to other bunch of guys. Privacy exploited. xP. This is a fastest mean of communication. Telegram<telephone<teleport<tell a woman. True that. Can’t wait to go in office again. Woot, woot! Today it was my lucky day. Basically I get what I want. I am damn lucky! Lol. I think I’ll join her in bus journey in this week probably. Let’s see how that goes. I don’t mind what people say watching us together. I am happy! Enough said. That movie, gangs of wasseypur has made an effect on me. Cant get the awesome scenes and songs out of my mind. Really a great piece of art. It was fun that director has managed to put in some nice comedy work as well.

I came home early so that I can go early to gym. But no, even gym has to wait till regular 8.30 time. Cardio session. I wonder where the heck monsoon has gone. June is coming to an end. Still no signs of regular rains. Facebook after coming home. Suddenly, out of nowhere, my best buddy in school pinged me. lol, he is avoiding questions on his educational and personal life. But still glad to see a pal after being literally hidden for 6 years. Learn something laden. Lol. Can’t wait for tomorrow. It will be more awesome. Every fucking day of my life is now awesome.

Hey,

Finally the college group of best pals of mine has watched a movie together. And it needed four years of wait to this to happen. Gangs of wasseypur was the movie. Last night I slept at 4am. After watching the euro match and then few videos on youtube, it was almost 4 when I went to bed. got up at 10 after 6 hours of sleep. No, I didn’t feel sleepy. Was excited little bit.

Reached the mall on time. In fact, earlier than most of them. 5 guys and tickets were already booked. That was a good decision. Movie was running houseful even on Sunday morning. Gosh, the movie was so adult, violent and vulgar. I haven’t seen any such movie before in public. The movie before interval was based on historical events. Speeding super-fast till the interval. Then after interval, characters got a space to breathe and establish their effect. Manoj Vajpayee is made for these gangsta roles. I generally never miss movies on Mumbai, police, and underworld. Adult jokes in movie were funny but I was taking a long time to understand them. I don’t know if other guys followed the movie or not. It was a complex plot indeed. Introducing loads of characters in just 3 hours. It was originally, a 5 hour movie but cut short to make it two parts. This movie starts from history and continues till present or even the future. Liked the music, liked the actresses and overall, great movie. I rarely see such maturity in Bollywood movie. Art wise, it was brilliant.

After movie, we, 5 of us went to McDonald’s for lunch. Average food but great buddies along so great time overall. Even they ask me about how things are going on between me and cs. How could I tell them that I have started liking her? Even I am not sure about it. Let some time pass. Transferred files and videos to ak’s flash drive. It was the main reason for outing. After that, spent some time in crosswords. I went for the first time in that book shop. Liked it. Everything, printed or digital stuff, all was there. I bought a book that I wanted since a long time. It was written by a senior in college. That was one of the reason I wanted that book. Also, learned a thing that, while getting job, the university matters. The new guy that joined us was working on same job profile as mine but was earning 2ce as me. still, I got 40 years to earn money. After coming home, first thing to do was read the newspapers and then complete max payne 3.

Sadly, even after being 30 gigs large, I managed to complete it within two days. That was disappointing. I mean where are those days when video games used to take a month for their competition? It took me 50 hours to complete dragon age. And I played it for a whole month. cod mw3, I completed that in 6 hours and never even touched it after that. I don’t feel like playing max payne again. But I’ll play one more play through surely. Weekend outing surely makes me fresh. But I can’t wait to go to office and see cs. She is one reason I don’t feel bore to go to office. I feel college like in her presence. Am I talking too much about her? May be yes. Let’s see tomorrow if I get to sit next to her or not. I will at any cost off course.

Euro between England and Italy is like a final match to me. Italy are dominating. But balotelli isn’t shooting past the keeper. He has already wasted so many chances. Buffon looks motivated. It difficult to beat him today. what the heck is rooney doing there on field? He is totally influence less. Pirlo is controlling entire midfield. Italy looks well organized only until balotelli takes a shot. England go on to do counter and then are made to go back on the same speed. Crazy. No luck for Italians. Already hit the bar twice but no goals for them. Looks like penalties will decide the result today. I wish the old guys of England were back in this euro. Lampard, gerrard, beckham all great people. Last world cup was their last tournament for England. This new string of players will take time to settle in. young, lescott, parker they just don’t look like they are enough to take England ahead. This game is a tale of missed chances and wasted opportunities. It’s decided. Italy advance on 4-2 on penalties. Montolivo and both the ashleys missed the kick for England. Italy deserved victory. Buffon’s geniuses saved them once again. Pirlo’s flighted penalty reminded me of Zidane’s penalty in world cup finals. Cool headed guys. Italy meets Germany in semis. Full stop for England. Still, well done by holding out Italy till 120 minutes. It wasn’t their day. 4-2 the final score.
