Strangely enough, it's true. I believe the last organized thought that crossed my mind is how much of a chance Vijay Mallya's team had of winning the race last Sunday. And that thought crossed my mind at around 3 p.m. on Sunday.
It feels really weird. I mean, it was less than two weeks back that I was discussing the immune system with my classmates before the exam. A week after that, I was criticizing Chinese food. But now, the last four days are just a haze. Between old issues of MAD magazine, re-runs of the Simpsons and geeky-cool apps on Facebook, time just flies by.
Wow. I really might end up not doing anything productive this summer. Scary.
One thing that has changed since the last time that I was home is that computer usage has gone up. Tremendously. It's almost as if one system isn't enough for the three of us anymore. And my mum taught me a couple of tricks on MS Word the other day. It's a moment of reckoning when that happens. On the one hand, it's your mother. Someone who you've looked up to nearly all your life. On the other hand... the tech-y stuff is my turf! It's kinda like me making a better dosai than her (she makes the best ghee dosais. Period) Or me giving the car a better tune-up than dad (Right now, I'm very very far from being even a halfway-decent mechanic)
Hmmm, that's an idea for this summer. Make a better dosai, and sharpen my mechanic skills.
I'll do it!!!
Once lounging around at home goes out-of-fashion, that is :D
