Exciting days!!!

Yesterday was yet another party night. Hmmm...To call it a party would probably be taking it too far, let's say it was yet another get-together. Like we don't get-together enough, every lunch we meet up and now almost every weekend also we meet up.

Dunno when or how it started. Is it because Bhu and Senthil came here or is it because Nihar moved to a new place near a beautiful park or is it just the summer? Whatever the reason, the past few weeks have been exciting and interesting and fun. I have now started spending time with people other than myself (for a change).

• First it was 'meet the newbies and make them feel comfy'
  
• Then it was 'Use the morale budget, hog at Nando's'
  
• And before the hogging was 'play some mean-ass tennis in the park'
  
• Then it was 'kind of house warming at Nihar's, cook-your-own-food afternoon '
  
• There was the 'help-newbies-find-accomodation evenings'
  
• The usual 'Friday evenings at the Village Inn'
  
• Yet another visit to the Oxford circus, Piccadilly circus and Leicester square
  
• Then it was a Chinese night at the china town to have some authentic Chinese food(frowned upon by the waiter when I asked for vegetarian dishes)
  
• Football finale at the Yates pub followed by pizza night at Nihar's
  
• And then yesterday it was 'my landlord is away party at Shreeni's'
  

And in between all this I felt homesick and started thinking of the monsoon back home, saw Kaliyattam and was blown away by Gopi's acting and kept humming malyalam songs which I did not understand (which for some weird reason are to do with 'pinakkam') and was force-fed a prawn.

Whew!! The last few days have been amazing and looking forward to many more exciting, fun filled days and beer nights in London.
