Diary 208: Movies and India Losing Day

Yesterday I slept at around 3:30 am. I woke up today at 10:20 am. I brushed my teeth, and started watching movies immediately. I completed a few movies and then looked at the code for a while, but decided to take a break from the code. I had my breakfast and continued with the movies. Later, I had my lunch and started watching the 3rd ODI between India and WI. India started off well but then somehow lost the way completely in the end. WI were able to reach 260 by scoring 93 runs in the last 7 overs. India's batting was terrible in the beginning. Sehwag, Gambhir, Virat - everyone failed. Rohit sharma stood out but still couldn't reach his 100 due to some lazy running between the wickets. Anyhow, after 106/6, India managed to reach 244/10, and lost by 16 runs. In between, I went to gym. Today was work out day. Well, today I spoke to a girl in the gym for the first time. It was not a informal talk though. She just asked whether I was in line to use the weights. Later, our hands touched when we exchanged the weights. Sorry, it has been long time since I had some interaction with a girl, and that's why I am giving up so many details. :). Anyways, I came back, had a bath and then wrote this diary. Now, I plan to complete the movies and then sleep by 1:30 am. 

Diary 207: Movies and Work Day

Yesterday I slept at around 4:00 am. Today I woke up at around 11:00 am. I brushed my teeth, and then had my breakfast. I went online and started working on the code for Schema Analyzer again. I made some progress on serializing the html file about of it, but still there are some changes required. I stopped after sometime and started watching movies. The lunch was good today. Roasted Chicken, Baingaan Bharta, and Roti. After lunch, I had a chit chat session with my sister and then later I slept. I woke up and continued with the movies. I was watching "127 hours". I later realized that it was based on a true story and had every detail captured. I love it when movies are not bloated to sell. After that I left for the gym. Today was cardio day. I came back, took a bath and then went online again. I played the guitar for a while. I am trying to play carnatic riffs as played by bands such as Motherjane. I hope that one day I can learn guitar properly. Anyways, then I wrote the diary and now I plan to watch the movies and then sleep by 3:00 am.

Diary 206: Unusual Work Day

Yesterday I slept at around 3:00 am. Today I woke up at around 10:00 am. I had my breakfast and then went online. I browsed some random links here and there, and then decided to watch movies. While the movies were being loaded, I tried my hands on the code for the schema analyzer. I had to change it drastically to make it work. So, I started with it and pretty soon I was completely dissolved in it. I forgot about the movies and worked all the way through. Also, I called up at the developer's office to get a status update on the webpage design etc. I wanted to get a demo of the software, but it seems that they are busy. Later, I had my lunch and then I continued working on it. I played solitaire in between to keep my brain alive. Also, I browsed through movies and started loading them. Later, I had some Tea and started watching the TV. There was a youth debate going on TIMES NOW channel. The topic was "Reservation: Should it be time bound?". There were some distinguished panelists alongside youth. The audience contributed nicely to the debate in the end. It was a good discussion, but obviously there was no conclusion. Later, I left for the gym after my pre-work out dinner. The gym was pretty empty today, but I hurried through the work-out and finished it within 45 minutes. Today I had to go on foot, because someone parked the vehicle awkwardly and so I couldn't get the car out. Anyways, I came back and started watching TV. Then, I had a head oil-massage and went to bath. I came back and started working on the code again. Then, I wrote this diary. I realized that I have made good progress on the code changes and I learnt a lot in the process. Next, I will work on the code for a while and then watch some movie and sleep by 3:00 am.

Diary 205: No Office and Cricket Day

Yesterday I slept at around 2:30 am. Today I woke up at around 9:45 am, and went online. I had stopped working on the earlier project and was waiting for a feedback from Gil, which never came. Anyways, I started watching movies and playing solitaire. I had my breakfast in between. Till the lunch time, nothing special happened. At around 2:30 pm, the 2nd ODI match between India and WI started. Well, the match was going India's way till 170/9 but then it was disaster. Rampaul scored 86* and took WI to 269/9. Everybody was in shock, but anyways, I still hoped that India would chase it down. Meanwhile, on the job front, we had a call with Gil where he explained the new project and also clarified doubts regarding the internal projects. Well, it seems that my work is far from over and I need to work on it now to handle multiple files at once. It will be a tough job. Anyways, India started chasing and it was not good. India lost 2 quick wickets and Sehwag was also on his way then. After that, Virat and Rohit played fabulously and took India home. Virat scored a century. In between, I went to gym, had a quick cardio and came back at around 10:20 pm. Later, I took a bath, had my post work out dinner and then wrote this diary. Now I plan to complete the movies and then sleep by 3:00 am. 

Diary 204: Return of Diary and Job Day

Well, I am returning to this blog after a long gap. The reasons were Goa Trip and ISB application. I did this to save time and create less distraction. That's why there are some updates. The Goa trip was awesome, and I took a lot of photos. I haven't uploaded them yet but I plan to do so soon. Also, I submitted my application to ISB on 29th. I don't know whether I will get an interview call or not, but at least a big tension is out of my head. Next, significant changes happened in the designs of the website. I designed the whole thing now and it looks good. Also, on the job front, Gil came to mumbai and we all had a nice time. Now, we are all very busy with internal projects. I partially completed one of them and now I am starting with another. Also, I dared to ask for recommendation from Gil, and he was a bit sad to know that I applied. Anyways, coming back to today. I woke up at around 7:45 am, and got ready for office. I left with my dad at around 9:00 am, and reached my office at around 10:45 am. There was some work and so I started working on that. Later, we all went through some resumes and decided on the candidate to hire. Also, Sarvesh took an interview today and I was also sitting alongside. It felt good to be on the other side. After the office hours, I left for home at around 5:00 pm. I reached Bandra, and later home at around 7:30 pm. I worked on the way back home too, so I was free now, and started watching the loaded movie. Then, I had my pre work-out dinner and left for gym. Today was workout day and I returned at 10:30 pm. Then, I decided to write the diary finally after completing the movie. Also, I had a chat with Shatabdi after a long time, and that too though my phone, and so I was multi-tasking with blogging and chatting. Next, I plan to watch another movie and then sleep by 3:00 am. I will not go to office tomorrow.
