Cramps.....Excitement... Fun... Anxiety... Joy... and Cramps!!

Well, the title of the post paraphrases my physical and mental state over the last weekend. I had been to Bangalore to participate in a quiz contest. Driving down from Chennai was an experience in itself. Petrol and Toll consumed our wallets! Not Teja's, he did not have any money to begin with! We hit Bangalore late into Thursday night. The cramps caused by the travel in the back seat of a tiny "zeny" car did not help matters the next morning, when I had to stand in the queue at the registration desk at IIMB for a full one hour!

The prelims came, and then the nail biting wait for the results and then the news of qualification. Amidst all this, I had an awesome time with friends. Life seemed so beautiful, all of a sudden!

The quiz finals were great - made all the more special by Chaitra's and Supreet's presence in the audience! It was so long since they saw me quizzing!! Thanks yet again, to Supreet and Chaitra for sponsoring those coffees and dinner and the movie and for the MacDee.

To top it all, on Sunday there was some major relocation activity to be undertaken by Supreet. Shifting his luggage took the cake for being the most demanding activity of the weekend. Well, now you know why the cramps revisited me!

Some self realizations/belief reinforcements post Bangalore trip:

1. I still tend to make wrong decisions when it rains!!
2. Some people dont realise that in absence of sound logic, intuition seems a good alternative (related to quizzing!)
