Love or arranged ?
I used to consider myself a good reader of people. This belief has taken a great beating in terms of guessing which path the person I think I know would take in terms of his/her marriage.

How I selected subjects..
These days I started feeling a kind of void (not the first time!) and felt that I am not utilising my time in a proper way. To console myself I have applied to a Masters Degree via correspondence. My further plans are still unknown.

Weekend movies
It was the Legend of Zorro on saturday and hugely popular Gajini on sunday.
