Diary 37: Meeting Day

Yesterday I slept at around 3:00 am. Today I woke up in many parts. Firstly, I woke up at around 6:45 am, because the security guard told me that there would be no water supply from 10 am to 5 pm. I was wondering why the hell our tank supply would be closed if they are doing the cleaning only for the lower floors. Then, I woke up at around 8 am, and called up Dallas to wake him up. After that I woke up at around 9:30 am, and brushed my teeth. Then I again woke up at around 10 am, and filled up the water bottles, and buckets so that the water supply is sufficient. Then, I called up the security to confirm the water supply thing, and then he told me that it was a mistake. Well, after this frustrating start of the day, I called up Dallas and Akshay to know their status of arrival. Dallas was a bit late, but Akshay was on schedule. At around 10:45 am, I left to pick up Akshay. Then we moved to CBD to pick up Dallas. After that we returned home. We started discussing our agenda, and how will we implement anything. We faced  lot of limitations on the technical details. Energy was low on our side, but then I decided to look for some web developers nearby, so that we can go and talk to them. Luckily, we found one, and so we decided to go in there after our lunch. After speaking with the concerned web developer, we moved to three star hotel for lunch. I noticed that the prices have increased a lot since last time. Anyways, the bill came out to be 1005, and I paid it with my debit card. Then, we moved to look for the web developer's office. The person in charge there was very insightful, and helped us clear many of our doubts. I did most of the talking there. He appreciated our idea, and told us that the cost would be around 30-40K. We took his contact details and then returned home. After that, we didn't do much work, we were tired and just did some time pass on you tube. Dallas took a video of me playing such random chords on guitar. He later shared that video on Facebook. Anyways, both of them left at around 9:15 pm. I returned home and then realized that there was a 20-20 match between India and West Indies. India won it by 16 runs. I missed Dhoni, Yuvraj and all. After that I just relaxed and started watching the TV episodes. Then, I wrote this diary and now I plan to watch the remaining episodes and then sleep at around 3:00 am. Also, I came to know that Divyansh has postponed his CFA Exam due to time slot problem.

Diary 36: Rain Day

Yesterday I slept at around 3:00 am, after watching the TV episodes. Today I woke up at around 10:15 am, and went online. Then, I brushed my teeth, but I was still very sleepy. I slept again, and woke up at around 11:45 am. I thought that the maid had already gone, so I decided to eat the extra packet of noodles as breakfast. But then, she arrived and I ditched my plan for the time being. I had Tea and two parathas as breakfast. Meanwhile, I watched the episodes of CSI:Miami and studied a bit of the remaining Day 6 chapter of JAVA book. Till around 5:30 pm, I was more or less watching the TV episodes. Then I decided to get a clean up. So, I cut my nails, went to a barber shop, came back with some more monginis cakes and a facial bleach also. I took a bath then, and applied the facial bleach. The results were just fine, I don't feel much of a difference. Anyways, the bleach may have helped clean up the dirt and oil on my face. After that, I ordered food from McDonald's and started watching the TV episodes. Today, it was raining very heavily here with lots of lightning and thunder. Yesterday I even got wet while coming back from Office. I was lucky I didn't go today otherwise I would have to face the heavy rains. After I ate the food, I contacted Akshay and Dallas, and provided them the details of my home address and route. Hopefully, we three will meet tomorrow at 11 am. Then, I started writing this post, and next I plan to watch the remaining loaded episodes and go to sleep by 2:00 am.

Diary 35: Late Office Day

Yesterday night I slept very well, although I don't remember when I slept, but it should be around 1:30 am. Today I woke up at 10:20 am, and went online immediately. Then I told Ankit that I would come in late. I was planning to skip it because the journey is too cruel. Anyways, I just surfed the net, and watched the TV episodes. The maid came in, she made me breakfast, did the daily chores and then left. Then something happened, and I decided that I will go to office. Basically I was angry on the office people because of the taunts on not coming to office. I can challenge them to travel this much daily, then they would understand. So, I asked Sushma for a key to the office so that I can come in late and leave late. I couldn't take bath because there was no water supply, but still I left for office at around 1:30 pm. I boarded the 1:46 pm train, and finally reached Andheri at around 3 pm. I entered office at around 3:25 pm. I spoke normally with them, and started with my JAVA book reading. The new hires were busy with the webex recordings. I tried to give them a version of the file with the sound, but they said that they will take it tomorrow. After some time, we ordered Vegetarian sandwiches. Also, I sat in the cabin today and connected my laptop with the bigger screen. Although I was planning to stay late, Sushma forced me to leave at 6 pm. I took the 6:37 pm train to Panvel, and then reached here at around 8:15 pm. Today there was no one monitoring the Parking Lot at CBD, so I didn't pay any fee. I came back home, and logged back in. I ate few cake pieces, and then decided that I will eat noodles for dinner. I ordered two packets of noodles, so that I can have one during breakfast. I read the JAVA book for a while, and then started watching the TV episodes. Then, I ate my dinner at around 10:30 pm. After few more episodes, I wrote this diary and now, I plan to watch the tv episodes and sleep at around 3:00 am.

Diary 34: Office Day

Yesterday I slept at around 2:00 am. Today I woke up at 7:45 am, and got ready for office. I was very lazy in the whole process because I didn't sleep well at night. The electricity was down, so the AC was off the whole night. Anyways, I left home at around 9:25 am, parked the car at CBD station, and then boarded the train to Wadala. At Wadala, I had to wait around 35 minutes to find a train to Andheri. Finally I was able to reach office at around 11:45 am. Today, two new people, Sarvesh and Mukund, joined in. They were pass outs from IIT KGP and were one year senior to me. Anyways, Ankit had planned that we would have lunch outside. Before lunch, I took a small training session of Data transformation. I hope that they got the basic idea of the tool. Then, we went out for lunch in a vegetarian restaurant. It was good, and was a change from the usual. Ankit paid the bill, so I had nothing to worry about. Mukund and Sarvesh left after lunch as they had some other work in Bandra. Rest of us went back to office. I started with the Day 5 of the JAVA book, but was interrupted many times by either Sushma or Ankit. Finally it was 5:30 pm, and I left the office as fast as I could. They expect me to come tomorrow also, but I will make some excuse. I hopped on to the direct train to Panvel, in which I even slept for quite a while. I arrived at CBD at around 7:30 pm, and then drove back home. I was hungry so I pulled out the cakes I bought yesterday from monginis. Then, I started watching TV episodes, JAVA book reading, and mail checking. Meanwhile, I forgot to mention yesterday that I got an admission offer from IIM Lucknow's PGP-ABM course, but I have decided not to join it. I think I deserve more than that. Anyways, after that I ate my dinner. I used the food items which were already made. Then, I started watching TV episodes along with reading the Day 5 chapter. After some time, I started writing this diary, and next I plan to watch the rest of the episodes and complete the Day 5 chapter, and finally sleep at around 3:00 am.

Diary 33: Day Alone

Yesterday I slept at 6:30 am, after watching the TV episodes and writing a few JAVA programs. Today I woke up at 8:15 am, since my Dad was set to go to Jalpaiguri to join my mom and sister there. The flight was scheduled at 6:30 pm, and so he took the luggage along with him when he left for office. Then, I planned to sleep, but couldn't sleep, so I started multi tasking between JAVA and TV episodes. The first mail that I saw today was from FeastHunt, and with some sample logos attached, so I was very happy that everyone is working. I started with the Day 4 chapter yesterday only, so I was placed comfortably today. The maid was supposed to come in at her usual time, but she didn't. I was feeling a bit hungry then, but I waited. Ultimately I called her up, and she said that she is on her way. I even asked Dad to inquire about her. Anyways, she came in finally, at around 1 pm. She just prepared Tea and the lunch. After I had my lunch, I started searching few logo design making softwares. I came across one, and I even designed a logo. I sent it across to the team, but Akshay didn't like it that much. Akshay's choice is not matching up with mine. His design was very formal and corporate. I want something catchy and different. Anyways, I continued my multi tasking between JAVA and TV episodes till around 7 pm. Meanwhile, I also tried my hands on frying chicken nuggets, but I feel that I fried them too much. Then, I felt very sleepy and so I slept for around 1 hour. When I woke up, I realized that there is no electricity supply, and that the inverter is on instead. Then, today again the residents of the flat just below me complained about the water drop noise on their AC from our AC. I told them that I am shifting to the other room today, so it won't be an issue now. Then, I decided to call up McDonald's for the dinner, but was disappointed when they told me that the home delivery is not available due to some technical reason. I was very hungry, so I decided that I would go there and take a parcel. I took a bath, and left home. I also bought some cakes from Monginis. They would act as small snacks in between meals. I also brought in extra burger so that I can have it as my breakfast tomorrow before going to office. Then, I ate my dinner, and started writing this post. Next, I would watch a few episodes and sleep by 1 am.
