RocknRolla
Today the weakness was little better than yesterday. To cheer up ordered a pizza from Dominos. I felt like trying something new, since I had to order from the veggie stuff. So ordered the Veg doubles online. I was assuming it would be sufficient for me, since it said serves 1. But the delivery guy surprised me, as he insisted to come in. When he started unloading those pizza boxes, I was stunned. There were 4 pizza boxes ! Anyhow I gobbled up 2 pizzas for lunch and luckily my parents had the rest in the evening. So dinner was very light, corn cob and a glass of milk.
Didn't go for a walk today due to the weakness. So finally got the guitar tuner batteries fixed. I had not played it for a while, since hardly got time this past 2 years. So was bit rusty. Might need to get it checked at a workshop or something. Got it tuned, but some tunes were coming off bit different. Will probably start the guitar lessons from tomorrow. I have a couple of video lessons that I had bought around 3-4 years back. Weird thing was that since the strings hurt my fingers, I used a guitar pick. But the pick fell couple of times as my grip needs some exercise ! Yeah need to use the grip exerciser more often. Finally ended up playing without the guitar pick, since its too boring having to play same tune number of times and the guitar pick landing inside the guitar ! I do hope that someday I can play "Hotel California" or "Wonderwall" on my guitar and sing along ! Long way to go, for now relaxing my fingers.
Also setup my work environment on PC, so might start some new demo project from tomorrow just to keep myself busy. I had got an email about training students in an institute. But turned it down. I love to teach about automation tools and such, but enjoy training only team members and corporate employees. I don't think I would be interested in training some college or post graduate students in a coaching class environment. Main reason being, I hate the commercialization of education. These institutes/classes cost a bomb and wonder how these students still spend hard earned money there. Also, these days I find students taking the easy way out and not spending enough time on doing projects that matter. Like my cousin who is learning engineering called me up the other day and informed me that he had hired a freelancer to do his project work for college. I mean WTH. If they could just find an extra hour each day, they could very well do the project themselves right. Anyhow those are just my thoughts. Would rather wait another month and try to get a full time job in what I enjoy most rather than these ad hoc teaching jobs for now.
Ciao n Peace.
