A Whole Lot of Random Topics

hey peeps...

sorry thta i havent written anything for the past couple of days, but i was out of station. i had to go and visit my college in coimbatore. man, what a long journey that was!! its 6 hours from here(that is, thiruvalla) to coimbatore. but thankfully my uncle has rented this big Toyota Innova and the drive was pretty comfortable. and of course, what is any journey without my favorite music??

for those of u i havent updated yet...i'll be attending Tamil Nadu College of Engineering, coimbatore. my college is 20 kms away from the city. the college looks pretty ok. its got awesome facilities and the hostel is neat and clean. but i didnt like the look of the basketball court so much. and u guys know how important that is to me. i feel like a part of me has melted away due to the fact that i havent played that awesome game for more than 4 months!!! i remember when i was in 10th grade. basketball wasnt just a sport...it was an obsession. if i didnt play for one day it was as if i had missed some important organ of my body. but now, due to unfortunate circumstances, i have become used to the feeling of missing that important part of my life. hopefully college will cure me of that....

oh hey...y'all heard bout jibin having chikun gunia(is that the right spelling? why does noone know the right spelling???), right? it came as a big surprise to me that someone that i knew and who was my friend was ill with such a potentially fatal disease. made me wonder about how sometimes life can pull the carpet from underneath you, while ur standing on it.

in the meantime i have been reading and watching tv, two of my very favorite pastimes. i read this book called 'Prairie Fire' which is a romance novel that i found in a christian bookshop. and of course the book tells a lot of things involving relationships and christianity. which i found helpful, i might add. its always confused me, u know? i mean what does GOD think about our romantic linkups? does he approve? does he disapprove? i mean, u always hear that God is Love... but at the same time, we hear our parents telling us that its wrong to get involved in a romantic relationship. i mean, C'MON!! how can they expect us not to feel???? lol.... but seriously.....

well anyways...thats all the posting i can muster for today. i gotta go and dress up. i have to visit my aunt's parents who are going to bangalore(or is it bangaluroo??)(whatever..) to help her( ie, my aunt) in her last month of pregnancy. i'm gonna get a brand new cousin!!! i hope its a boy... there's a shortage of boys in the family..hehe...

alritey then, mes amigos..
ciao!
