so everything in life has a way of balancing itself. we get to do a couple fo stories on civic issues and then finally end up covering an amateur beauty pageant. We are a generation devoid of heroes. it's always about money, fame and everything else that goes along with it.

met a lady who likes our paper, hates the TOI, thinks they are losing focus. also went to cover a phonics workshop in a school in Malad. according to the lady conducting the workshop we have all been taught to read and write the wrong way. That is it!! a lifetime of deception is too much to endure. so we are supposed to learn to write first and then read. The principal of the school was trying to use me as her PR agent.

spent the evening with shibbs by covering a beauty pageant. had the most awful ice cream in my life. can't bear the sight of another ice cream cone for some time now. and then rounded up the day by watching Dil Chahta Hai with Shibbs for the umpteenth time, mouthing all the dialogues along. I don't care what the oldies think about this film!! simply loved it!! aamir khan looks yummy!!
