Hello 2007

Ah well... I am a little late in bidding adieu to 2006 and welcoming 2007 but I guess for a lousy blogger like me, it's ok. Anyways, this is my first post of 2007 and I solemnly pledge to blog more often and keep all my friends posted.

As for how celebrated my new year's eve, it was pathetic. Well, like any other guy, I had planned a grandiose gathering of my school gang who were working in and around Bangalore - Prakash from Hyderabad, Nitin from some place in Kerala, Prashant from Chennai, Sameer and Kartikeya from Bangalore itself. But destiny wasn't kind to me. Turns out - Sameer wasn't returning from Korea as planned, Prakash had to work on new year's eve, Prashant had an interview to attend and Nitin was way too faraway although the stupid chap did go to Chennai. I still can't understand why he didn't come to Bangalore.

But my woes weren't to end so easily. I had planned to watch some movies with Kartikeya (the sole guy who could make it) on my computer. Alas, a virus from hell infected my machine and crazily it went down. When Kartikeya came, we spent the time having pizza and fixing my system. Shortly after midnight, Kartik dozed off (he was damn tired after the flight and the a 2-day extravaganza with his college friends at Noida) and I was there burning dvds to back-up data on the system.

Finally, I too said farewell to the long day and slept. Next morning, we spent most of the time calling our folks and wishing them a happy new year. We went for a stroll in the afternoon and had a bite at the Tewari's on Commerical Road.

And that's how I welcomed the new year.

I am sure I will have more interesting stuff to tell as the time progresses. On a short update, I am going to visit Bombay soon. Will be there from 26th till 28th Jan. Hope to meet all my friends there.

Ciao.
