How Life Can Be Lived One Day at a Time Only
It is very difficult to plan for the future. You can never say what’s going to change, what isn’t. And that makes it impossible to plan everything in advance. You can prepare for everything. But you cannot plan for everything. Sometimes, things have to be solved on the fly. Situations unseen arise, but so do…

Perfectly messy prefect: Day 17
The last day before the trip. Everything was done in a euphoric feeling. Going for banana, serving kumbalakai pallya. The fact that there was only 16 curds, didn't even matter. Slept soon. Woke up soon. Bye bye

Perfectly messy prefect: Day 16
Today, started as a normal boring day. Till the gas leakage that was temporarily fixed yesterday had to be fixed again. Calling the repairman would have been stupid, as seen later. So, I took a pipe tighter and started looking for alternate tubes in the gas room. Got one, found some spare washers and fitted…

It's halfway there already. Considering how 7 days are off, it's two-thirds done already! The milk van continued yesterdays order and didn't deliver curd today. Manju and uday found some dairy where they got curd. Gas! They booked it. Delivery by afternoon. And the eggs for dinner. I allowed them to proceed with 210 eggs.…

Happy Children's Day, and a prosperous world diabetes day. The grand feast for Diwali. 9L ice cream and still it didn't last. In the night, we made a miscalculation.

This the sunday. Dosa was on time, but not the pallya. Brought all sweets, fruits, ice creams, on time for lunch, but samosa didn't last till the interns came. Suhas had to go again. Plus, the sweet was of low quality. Afternoon, had planned to go for skyfall, but didn't happen. Went to get puli…

Perfectly messy prefect: Day 10
Gone are the distant days of worrying about mess when I'm not there. Gave everything for breakfast. Ate leftover bananas as breakfast. And went for a research workshop with sumanth sir, venkatesh darshan, swathi and priyadarshi at HD Kote. The workshop was useful. Didn't take down notes because participants are gonna get the materials e-mailed.…

Perfectly messy prefect: Day 9
Yesterday, after I slept* (*-almost slept) 10 o'clock, one of my friends calls me and comes to my room for converting a set of videos in his laptop. While I'm on it a senior from a neighbouring room comes in and asks me to go get a rice bath from chat street. After successfully delegating…
