not getting any younger

sitting here in my room in the sonnet, jamshedpur...

it's getting late, i am getting bored... it's raining outside, i am lazy, the room's cold, a perfect setting, except... i am kinda alone and well, no coffee... come to think of it, i have not had coffee today, that explains my sleepiness...

the meeting in kolkata did not go so well, on thursday it was shouting all the way, i shouted... on friday, i have no more energy to argue and shout, so i sent those guys off early... and went back to the hotel a little earlier... and if you think i get to escape work, think again... went to the hotel and continue working...

woke up at 9 on saturday, went for breaky, and then continue doing some work... it was raining a little, so i stayed in... around 12, the rain stopped, so went out to do some shopping... dunno where to go, so told the driver to take me to salt lake city again... that's the only place i know... so walked around in circles... bought some stuff... not a lot this time... bought a blouse for mom, a bag made from gunny sack for myself... and a pair of shuz... the shuz and bag are cheap... and after that had a scoop of gelato for lunch... called the driver and told him that i wanted to go to a bookstore, was supposed to look for some engineering books, but the driver sent me to this canggih bookstore, unfortunately for me, no engineering books... but the fiction collection is extensive... very very nice... i am not sure about the price, but i think it's cheaper than back home... needless to say, i was trying not to buy anymore books that i won't read, i settled for the stephen king's book... i'll go back and survey the price, if it is cheaper here, i'll get the entire "dark tower" collection... and then read and hide... i am almost sure i'll freak when i read... it'll be scary...

woke up at 4 on sunday morning, to catch the train to jamshedpur... the train ride was normal, except i was sitting next to this guy... and he didn't smell good... anyway, i slept a little, and played a little game... zack... i am so stuck at that point, can't win that battle... it's driving me nutz... reach the hotel, came online to chat, and then ordered lunch... after eating, did some work... and then chat somemore... fell asleep after awhile, and was disturbed twice... once with a call by the reception to tell me that they are returning my passport, another to tell me that my laundry is ready...

woke up, ordered dinner, ate, shower, wanted to chat, most people are already sleeping, it's late... i'm feeling kinda lonely and sad too... it's my birthday today, and i am in a strange land... with no family or friends around... i wish i am home... hmm... i saw a baskin robbins outlet just now, maybe i'll go buy myself some ice cream to celebrate with myself! well, happy birthday silly ol'one!
