I thought life in Trivandrum would be slow..I thought that time would, for once stand still..or atleast, that it would not fly on a winged chariot and that it would drag its way past me..
I couldnt have been more mistaken (err..well..u never know abt that though..u can always be more mistaken)
What I am tryin to say is..time flies even in Trivandrum. Yes it does..atleast thats how I've been feeling ever since 2006 entered the scene. Think of it, I am actually at a browsing centre keying this in..no time at work to stand and stare. No time to blog..not to talk about blog hopping..It's just been work, work and some more work..and work too doesnt show any signs of getting bored with my desk. It shares genes with Ravana's head(s)..keeps reappearing at a steady rate whenever i think i have done away with some amount of it..
New Years was great..spent 2 days in the northernmost district of Kerala..Kasargod..you can catch a snap or two at Shain's World . Dint do much..except for a couple of trips to forts, and one helluva heavenly ride through the backwaters..went all the way till the point where the sea met the backwaters..or rather, became the backwaters..
One funny thing about the place, Kasargod, though..say you feel hungry in the morning and you wanna have some breakfast..if you are the average south indian, you'd say idlis, dosas and the rest of their species..but if you are from kasargod, you are more likely to say Chicken Biriyani..even at 10 in the morning..anytime you go, you get Chicken Biriyani, even there is nothing else in the hotel..

In other developments in Trivandrum, I managed to bring my 14" tv to my house here..have already set it up (ok so it doesnt take much to 'set up') and i also managed to treat that pack of noodles (read earlier post) with the respect that it deserved. I cooked it. I've also taken a firm resolve to wake up at 5.45 in the morning now onwards. It still remains a resolve..atleast that part of it is firm..
