Yes, the blog meet was yesterday and yes we did have a good great time.

Started with a small table at the corner (at TGIF), then few more chairs were added to that table and in no time with were nicely to a bigger table right in the center. No one could miss us, we were the most loudest and good-looking bunch of extremely intelligent minds.

Okay..Okay maybe I just exaggerated it a little bit. Actually the loudest table consisted of a fimli group…moi thinks it was the forthcoming movie, Fanna’s crew members. Ahhhh…Bollywood morons never let go of an opportunity to show off.

Anyways, moving back to the original topic.

All in all we had a real good time, some made a fantastic first impression and some left us completely with-out any impression (sorry ! I can’t indulge in name calling yaar).

Whiles cleaning up an old study cupboard, I stumbled upon my hobby books!! During my stay in Sydney, to pass the hours, I used to sketch out different cartoon characters from various printed books. I recollect blowing my weeks pay at Office Works (stationary departmental store) buying sketchbooks, pencils, rubbers, etc. Finally I landed up owning a massive collection of drawing books and special carbon pencils.

Can never forget those winter afternoons during semester break - sitting in front of the heater in my comfortable lounge (along with my doggy, Tinku), listening to Enya and scribbling away to glory. Wow! Those were the days of pure pleasure.

It’s been ages since I have touched those pencils; blame it on busy work schedules and my blogging obsession.

My first sketch portrays a poor snake charmer, desperately trying to lure passer-bys into hearing his broken tunes, that way maybe he could earn some fast bucks! But all in vain, poor chap looks all confused and heartbroken! A sad state…out of work…out of money…thereby life is all out of tune!
