For old time's sake

For old time's sake

In no particular order,here is my india wishlist

- wake up to a hot glass of milo and a hindu.
- haggle with an autokaran - enna sir!
- ride my kinetic as freely as ever
- ride the MRTS - have still never done it!
- cook a hearty meal for my parents
- movie at satyam - obviously!
- A delightful breakfast at Woodlands drive-in, pani puri at keshav with the guys, dinner at dakshin and dessert at tangerine.
- morning at marina, evening at elliot's
- cricket in my own backyard and at my cousin's place in adyar - for arun and krishnan!
- meet all my teachers at Sishya, especially my hindi teacher.
- an overnight journey in a train, alone or otherwise
- attend a quiz with vatsa and jigar; wish i could have stayed till saarang and odyssey!
- ride the bus to college and (hopefully) rag a few juniors.
- pool at cue-in
- wile away time at landmark and spencers
- go-karting at danny's - and this time more than one round!!

So little time, so much to do!! Madras, here I come.

A Birthday post!!!

Here's what Milton had to say on his 23rd...enjoy!!

How soon hath Time, the subtle thief of youth,
Stolen on his wing my three-and-twentieth year!
My hasting days fly on with full career,
But my late spring no bud or blossom shew'th.
Perhaps my semblance might deceive the truth
That I to manhood am arrived so near;
An inward ripeness doth much less appear,
That some more timely-happy spirits endu'th.
Yet, be it less or more, or soon or slow,
It shall be still in strictest measure even
To that same lot, however mean or high,
Toward which Time leads me, and the will of Heaven:
All is, if I have grace to use it so,
As ever in my great Task-master's eye.

- John Milton.
