Caveat: Nothing do with Sri Sri Ravi Shankar!! More to do with spending a lazy Saturday morning when you know that next 3 days are there to catch up whatever reading we are expected to do. Vish, Sushant and I helped ourselves to dosas with Gun Powder (Idly podi) for side dish, and followed that up with 3 cups of ilachi flavoured chai over some general gossip at my place. Having been denied this pleasure for some time, it was quite invigorating to sit back and just absorb in the mundaneness of doing basic things in life. Life is made up of these small moments than the adrenaline pumping survival instincts - one which have been the basis since the beginning of the course.
Vish, a connoisseur in true sense, brought along the traditional “Dosa Kal” (Tawa) and we borrowed another sophisticated contraption from Kavitha needed for the complex art of making paper thin dosas. The batter was sourced from the convenience store within the apartments, and so was the gun powder. We couldn’t help gush about the experience of having dosas made at home, compared to the ones we have been having at the Shiv Sagars and the staff canteen in the college.
Earlier yesterday, due to the sudden downturn in my healthy disposition, I couldn’t join my classmates for a second show of “Knight and Day” at Inox, but made up for it with a partial screening of Guy Ritchie’s “Snatch” on my laptop. The tablets took their toll and I dozed off with the lights and laptop on, and woke up to the sounding of the door bell by our maid at 6:30 AM.
Still trying to figure out the arrangements for watching the world cup finals on Sunday mid night.
