this weekend
on friday evening saw "in the mood for love" - an acclaimed chinese movie directed by celebrated director wong kar-wai. set in 1960s hong kong, about 2 neighbors (mr. chow & mrs. chan) who discover that their often-absent spouses are having a affair. they are drawn towards each other but decide that they won't be like their unfaithful mates. found it to be a visually stunning period piece with an evocative background score - captures a sense of romantic longing in fleeting moments in time.
was up all night on friday chatting online, slept about 15 hours on saturday. did go out for a drive on saturday afternoon with my roommate - into massachusetts to catch some fall colors. but found that most of the trees had already shed their leaves, and the drive wasn't as colorful as expected. had lunch at an indian restaurant in williamstown - their masala tea was great. it was nice drive on the whole - took my powerbook and connected it to the car speakers, and played nice english/hindi songs all along the way.
in the wrpi show today morning, took requests for the first time. hosted the show along with my roomie. didn't get any requests till the 4th song. then got 3 calls within the space of one song, two from other grad students, who i guess took pity on us and requested something. at least i had the 4 songs requested - chookar mere man ko, tum itna kyon muskura rahe ho, ik din bik jaayega and main aisa kyon hoon. then headed to java++, a cafe near our univ - for a white chocolate mocha, a dark chocolate cake and some online chatting.
in the evening went to price chopper for groceries. tried a large quiznos toasted veggie sub on the way back. and had it while watching "the matrix" on tbs - for the 'n'th time. found the sub to be ok - not very good. in the night skipped "desperate housewives". think i've lost interest in it now. instead saw parts of "in the mood for love" again. then saw "grey's anatomy" - its the only serial i make it a point not to miss.
