New Year Text?

"Happy New Year" An innocuous message, right? 

Well, not always; not at least for the dumb handler and the suicide bomber in Russia, where an unexpected text message blew up a suicide bomber in a safe house. 

I don't know how true the article is, but it seems that it surely did turn out to be a lucky moment for her intended victims. 

Little less wise

I had a wisdom tooth; for all of 4 days. Well, it was there for a longer period of time, but the trouble only started in the last week. Half a bag of cloves later, and it was still hurting. Finally, got it extracted today. Besides my significantly lighter wallet, swollen cheek, and a cold diet, the pain is still there!

On another note, campus is eerily quiet, the net super fast and the guards surprisingly look extra alert. Maybe, they got inspired by the uncharacteristically long speech given by the VC in today's flag hoisting ceremony. The promised 'sweets' turned out to be eclairs (Arey yaar,kaju ki  barfi nahi to motichur ke ladoo de dete!), but the VC passed around a copy of the Fundamental duties, neatly printed and laminated in the style of a carry around card.

Ah, back to the wisdom tooth...Wouldn't wish it on anyone!!

Thought Reader

What if someone else could read you, your thoughts and sum you up in simple words of critique and admiration. Perhaps better than what you yourself would admit. List out your faults, most of which were known to you anyways, but also point out qualities that you never knew existed.

Would you be afraid of such a person?

Touchwood

2011 ha been all of 3 days, and what 3 days it has been!

From a bit of unsteadiness to the wind in my face, delightful conversations, awesome food and my first game of squash, everything has been good!

Its a touchwood feeling!
