Something of Myself
Friday, March 19, 2004
ok. finally got news from regenia that i should be getting the official letter for my funding and that i am now "virtually certain" of getting the phd and that i am number 1 on the list. hmm....that word virtual never seemed so disturbing until her email. sala looked it up on 3 different dictionaries despite knowing what it means. wanted to know the exact meaning. after all the dean has written it, cant play games! can she?
jani na. karon for me the leopard is not dead until it has been skinned. thats something i believe in and will do so forever. it kind of brings a nice, sweet neatness to the job at hand. contentment pai.
ebar podashuno korte khub icche hocche. giving it shots. looks like a mountain to climb but as soon as it starts to hurt i will know that its working.
baba and ma were very very ordinary with their reactions on hearing about my phd. perhaps because they had not recovered from the earlier shock. percy help na korle would not have got this news either. i know percy is NEVER going to read this. so thank you dada for helping me out yet again. chagol theke siyal hole ki hobe, apun abhi takk babbar sher nahi bana! oh he is just great! sala he will finish soon and if he goes besh dukkho hobe. he is not a friend of mine. he is a bro. almost a surrogate father except that i can openly say behenchod in front of him and address him with the same epithet! gem at heart. lazy like me. gets his work done when his ass is against the wall. quite brilliant in his work. computers and wires run through his body. kindness is his virtue. short temperament is his negative quality. but never angry without reason. very scary when angry. you dont want him to be angry with you. no wonder he has this huge scare-club lead by sammie. haha people say they are afraid of percy and i dont understand why. he is just like you and me. but i guess i can see where they come from. his persona, his attitude towards the general mass makes them afraid of him. but get closer, be gutsy and you will find a very loving and kind person. jai hok onek bole felechi amar bondhur bepare. i pray that he gets peace, love and music in his life.
amar life e ekhun milton cholche. teaching coming up on april fool's day. dekhi ki hoy. jiboner prothom class. prothom lecture. seminar. call it what u like. at the end of it i got to teach kiddos! OMG.
anyways gtg, reading jhumpa. gogol is good, bit dragging sometimes, but makes up for it with its vernacular simplicities.
