A Phenomenal Victory for India

Wow what an awesome match... and once again my Facebook wall is filled with feeds about today's match all containing praise about India.
I took the day off from college, slept late.. till 1.30 PM... then went to the college auditorium where most of the college had gathered to watch the match and the atmosphere there was ecstatic everyone was shouting and cheering for India and I assume that the scene would not have been much different had we been watching the match at the stadium-  people were wearing Blue everywhere, some had their faces painted with the Indian flag or team India written on their arms, we were waving the Indian flag every time the ball hit the boundary for team India or every time a Pakistani Batsman got out. By the end the excitement level had reached to such an extent that everyone was on their feet and shouting at every ball. There were fireworks too after the match. It was like an early Diwali for India.

after this match even I am eagerly awaiting the World Cup final against Sri Lanka on 2nd April. Maybe they declare a holiday in college once again and we get to see the match together in the Auditorium once more :)

India vs Pakistan - World Cup 2011 - Semi Final

Finally, its time, the much hyped world cup 2011 semi final match between India and Pakistan is going to be played tomorrow. The reason for the Hype?

  1. Its the World Cup semi final.
  2. Its happening in a country where cricket is treated as a religion. and sachin is GOD.
  3. its India vs Pakistan

these 3 reasons are enough to make people take a day off from work and sit back in their home enjoying the match. People are declaring self-proclaimed holidays for tomorrow and my Facebook wall is filled with post about the match ( this post is going to be added to those once i post it there :P )
Even our college has declared an official half day as the match is starting at 2.30PM and believe me, after spending almost 3 very tedious years of my life in this college i can tell you this for sure that college declaring a half day like this is something really BIG.

even though I am not much of a cricket fan, and me writing about Cricket on my blog is really unimaginable! but here is the post right before you.! actually this world cup is changing me.. some how I am actually following the matches in this world cup - at least all matches of India.
I even played cricket with some friends today after many years(maybe 6 or more... long time!). It was my first time with cricket in this college i guess. felt good. really needed the exercise as we are doing nothing but sitting around with our laptops these days... n getting fat :P
Though I accept, I suck at cricket - can't help it - not much of a bowler, can touch the ball with the bat sometimes... :P yeah, but I did try... and my team actually won all three of the matches which were played!!! so it was awesome :D

Enjoy tomorrow's match !! n hope India wins!!! :D

Back from the 'Mid-Sem break'

Back to college from the Holi Break... I don't play much holi  but still managed to get some color on me somehow...
This holi felt different though... something was missing... this was my first holi without you and it just didn't feel right...

after a week long stay at home i came back to college, and the return journey was one of a kind really... took 18 hours to get from Kanpur to Noida (normally it takes around 6 hrs) via Train! The train was late 12 hours and we had to wait for 6 hrs on the Station ( that boring waiting room!! )
and back in the hostel, I was welcomed with countless blood-thirsty mosquitoes(ooooh I hate mosquitoes!) and frequent power cuts- luckily, this time the blackout was for the whole hostel not for me alone :P

n yeah planning to work on a comic strip/cartoon thing soon... been working on some ideas... will post some stuff here soon enough.!

T2 time!!

Going through one of the 'not so good' phases of my life.. feeling bored of everything.
n even my best songs are not able to cheer up my mood... Totally bored of sitting n wasting my time on Facebook... It would be better to deactivate my account for a while.

moreover the exams are starting from Tuesday that is three days from now. Trying my best to study... i don't know what i m gonna do.!!

looking forward to the Mid-Sem break coming up after the Exams... Holi time.. maybe a change from this monotonous life might bring me back to life... :-|
