1:40 PM
Something keeps on buzzing in my ear. I just can't get it to stop or even get it out of my head. Is something wrong with me? Am I getting insane? I try to think but darkness envelops me.......
1:55 PM
That same buzzing noise, is someone drilling in my head? It seems to be shifting from my head to my chest. I try to rip it out, but..........
2:05 PM
The irritating and ominous noise, I can feel it, I can touch it. I hold that little pest in my hand and unlock it and answer a call from a client. Damn his France server is down and he wants me to look into it on a Sunday afternoon. I should charge these guys extra for working on a Sunday. I finally get up, grab my laptop from my bed side and shoot up my SSH client while at the same time getting a Good Morning look from my mother. I fix the guy's server, leave my laptop on my bed and check my mobile for other calls (Note to self, I have to stop putting my mobile on my bed, or one day I'm gonna wake up insane). Ah! A call from baba ji - Savi Arora. I call him back and he delightfully informs me to get ready by 4:00 PM as today is apparently the last CA Final Exam and my other mates would finally be released from hell (at least for 2-3 weeks if they are lucky).
5:10 PM
I'm standing outside CA Test Center with all my CA buddies, damn they look like hell but happy. We stand and talk nonsense for hours and hours and then go out for a snack or two before finally leaving for Sagar's (correction: CA Sagar's) new home in South City.
10:30 PM
I finally get home, fire up my laptop and revive another dead server (what is it with these servers? Women and computers it's hard to understand either of them. Okay, I went a little too far, computers are far easier to handle.). Finally, after getting free, I queue another Game Of Thrones episode and happily loose myself into the wild world of Westeros and the lovely Daenerys Targaryen.
Always great to meet my revived friends after all the CA horror. I really hope it ends real soon for them.
