I now feel better than I have ever since final year started. Rested, and content. Yes, I feel good.<\/p>\n
The first reason for this is that the midsems and evaluations and stuff ended, and I did all the things I said I would to to unwind. I watched Daredevil, I watched Risky Business, I watched Friends and I watched Trehan smoke up. I read Dubliners and reread Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and right now I’m reading Vanity Fair. Oh, and I ate pizza when I got home. Cheese good. Yay!<\/p>\n
My hard disk, which by all indications had crashed now seems to be merely in a bad mood. A backup is called for ASAP, but at least it’s not a total loss. Not yet.<\/p>\n
Why else do I feel good? The grades finally came through and my CGPA has risen from 6.00 to 6.47. 6.75 isn’t far now.<\/p>\n
My CAD instructor is off on holiday for two weeks, so I’ll be able to attend Rendezvous after all. Oh, and since I’m going to bunk three and a half days for that, I’ll probably get my permanent drivers license issued (finally).<\/p>\n
Oh, and yesterday I successfully conducted a little open quiz in college, and went to a pretty good party.<\/p>\n
It’s cumulative happiness. It’s not as mindblowing as the Uttarayanic phase I entered in November last year, but nice and slow and comfortable.<\/p>\n
The fly in the ointment is that I don’t blog as much as I used to any more. I’m posting this nine days after the last Fillet, and it’s a status report, not a little monograph upon a subject. And while there is a touch of vanity involved, there’s another worrying factor about not writing as much as I used to. It’s excellent that I’m packing my time, but if I’m doing so much that’s so interesting and not finding enough time to write about it, that could mean my time management isn’t optimal. On the other hand, it could mean that I’m taking life seriously for once, so we’ll just see in hindsight.<\/p>\n
