The XIMB Chronicles - IV

It's been a week since my midterms ended and never have I had such an exhausting week so far. No no, physically, it was all fine. But, mentally, it was certainly another story altogether! And to top it all, the end seems nowhere in sight! Things were made even worse by the insane attack on Bombay in my own backyard!!! Maybe I will write more about that when I have calmed down enough to put down more than a few words before I start spewing out expletives worse than a sailor! 

Anyway, we decided to eat out for the weekend to dissolve our sorrows in yummy molten mozzarella cheese and well ground spicy bhaji. Err...for those who have not yet heard me go off on a tangent about food, I was talking about Pizza and Pav Bhaji, the former of which happens to be the favourite dish of my Economics professor, who can't stop explaining India's GDP in terms of pizzas sold! But enough about that! So, after running up a bill of a whopping Rs. 390 per head at Pizza Hut yesterday (yes, when you are a student, anything greater than Rs. 150 is 'whopping'!), we decided to spare our pockets and minds the heartache and go in for some cheap Pav Bhaji. Now, a plate of Pav Bhaji is a wonderful way of sharing gossip about your batchmates and also to catch up with each other's lives outside of campus. One such similar discussion was going on, when someone recommended that I watch a movie 'A Walk to Remember'. I have not mentioned the name of this someone coz I am not really sure if he/she would want to be named here.

Anyway, back to story! So deep was my frustration with academics that I conveniently forgot that tomorrow was a working day and sat down to watch the movie. Now, some 110 minutes later, as I am writing this, I am so happy that the someone had the bright idea of recommending the movie to me! What a brilliant movie! I suppose a person like say SSV (male/female) or S may be able to tell what my exact reaction was! But, it is still worth watching and "someone" has my deepest gratitude for recommending it to me.
