HOWARD ROARK laughed

This is to declare that finally I have started reading novels. This is the third novel I am reading. Technically speaking fourth, cause the first 'Love story' did not make me feel that I was reading a book as it got over in couple of hours and there was a long gap between first and second book. Yeah I have read it over night. Thanx to Prathyusha, I was very down these days and she wanted to tell me that there are so many bad things that can happen in life and to prove my reason to be sad is nothing in front of it she handed 'Love story' to me :D
I got 'Da Vinci Code' a month ago when I was going back home. We got some time before train starts. So I came out of Delhi railway station and caught hold of this book. I came to know how people can read thousand pages book only after started reading this book. For next couple of days I was married to this tiny 500 pages novel. It was with me wherever I went, relatives houses, shops and what not. I really enjoyed reading it. They are far better than fooling around in C'not and spending dosh on dinners and coffees. :)
The next in series was 'Around the word in eighty days'. A great classic. But I don't know why I had feeling that Fogg was the robber but still I wanted him to finish journey in time. I am glad that I guessed that he would gain a day in his journey. fundoo me :D
And now I have got this 'The fountainhead'. Let's see what comes next.

yet another new sem

Semester comes and goes. So the year. The same old institute. The same old professors. The same classes and same old life. What changes is the calendar on the wall and timetable book. Is this what means by new semester? who gives a damn.
Last year I learnt so many things. People says that we must learn from other's mistakes. Cause we will not get chance to commit all these mistakes in our life. As I am that hopeless I have to go through same thing twice or thrice to learn from it. Last year was not so different, atleast in repeating mistakes.
But certain things proved a great asset to me. Yeah, the Vipassana. It did give me some stability and made my thinking a little matured. But as the time passed, I forgot everything. Then came swami Anubhavananda. I enjoyed listening to his lectures. Enjoyed reading his books. Understood what he is trying to tell. But when it comes to execution, forget it . I am kapil ... I am hopeless.
And the best part was Corpus Labs. It was simply amazing.
First sem comp CDC's were like any other courses. I did enjoyed them but failed get so called good grades. (ok ok, I am not gonna talk abt acads here anymore :D )
The last part of year was a little more painful. Don't ask me why.
And now when I came back now, I hope I will not do it again. The new year, new promises.
