School Time!!!

Was running through my drawer just to find something but then bumped into one of my school photos which was taken during Teachers Day. I was not the brightest of the kids but the teachers would always get hold of me someway or the other to do something in extra-curricular activities.

So i was the vice-principal of the school during teachers day in which we have to dress up smartly (i was in my brown suit, matching shirt and tie) roaming the school and checking out how classes were going on.

At the end we served food to the teachers and after that things are hazy as what we did.

Front row left to right - Sneha, Pravita, Meena, Mamta, Dhanya
Back row left to right - Ashwin and Vishwas

Ashwin and me go a very long way....know him since i was in junior (around 5 years old). We were benchmates and always looking out for fun. Throwing chalk at the girls, slinging rubberband when teachers are not around, eating tiffin boxes of other students when teacher is in the room.

I had a good surprise it is being almost 8 years since i left school, but one day was about to meet a friend of mine near the school and reached an hour early. I thought why not see what is happening in the school, as i reached the gate there is a watchman whose name is Phatak (we have given him the name since he had a habit of stopping people), as soon as he saw me and told me how you doing, long time and i was taken aback....i guessed this guy would be the last person to recognize me. But then had small chat with him and went up the stairs in my shorts and black tee (with a skull drawn over it). Met my teachers had a small chat and fun here and there. Walked around the school, seeing my old classroom. It was a good visit...

More photos shall be uploaded

Dinner

Left office at dot 6 pm and reached home at 8 pm (which was a record), hanging out from Andheri was a cool experience (although doing it for past 7 years).

At Vashi messaged Tal on whether she would be free for dinner and to my surprise she said yes. After few messages here and there decided to go to Pop Tates. But as always got a messaged when i reached Khar that she had cousins coming at her place so had to drop the plan. Reached home, mom and dad were watching TV and came to know that mom also had reached home at around 7:30 pm. Decided to go to "Flag Restaurant", after concensus. As we have being to this place umpteen number of times kind of know what is there in the menu, at times we never open up the menu card to place the order.

As dad likes Indian style food we ordered Crunchy vegetables and Blama Vegetable. Crunchy vegetable was small veg pieces cooked in chinese sauce. Blama Vegetable was a mix of vegetables made in a roll and cooked in garlic sauce. Tried them long time before but really loved it. Main course was Veg Tawa Bhuna, it is a dry vegetable with mushrooms, baby corn, capsicum to top it off with sauted onions. The best thing about this place is you get some off the hook Indian vegetables.

Day in office was bit ok, reached before time and seeing Prasad already there working on his MAC. Checked mails some websites and then went on to play Bioshock. Bioshock is one of those shooter games which i am no good at but hell it is so much fun and always there is WTF moment. Collecting guns and upgrading weapons were not fun before this game.

Weekend will be fun (hopefully) going for a terrace party and then will go with colleagues to Dahanu for the weekend.

Things learned: Never plan things on the same day!!!!
