Back to work… and lots more!

With such a looong gap for my practical exams I decided to get back to work. Felt a little different getting back inside nursery. I did nothing much except attend rounds. I then scooted off to pick up my official notice about the exam dates and also get my Log Book.
My exam dates are actually th 13th of October. Look it up in the calendar and you’ll notice it is ‘Friday the 13th’.
Again no comments….
The rest of the day was exciting. I couldnt get to church for practice as it was too late by the time I had lunch. Anyway there were enough people today (Sarah and Soniya were leading)
During lunch Cynthia called up and requested me to help out with guitars on 2 “small numbers” they were singing at a “farewell function”. It was cutting it tight as we had a class meeting at 5 PM and then I had to attend the Women’s Hostel Day before 7 PM. She promised that it would be OK to meet at 6.30 PM and we’d be out by 7.30 PM.
I worked out how to keep Manish occupied during this time and said OK.
Rajiv, Jenifer and I turned up for the class meeting and had a short session of singing, sharing and prayer.
I the picked up Manish and as I was late, I zoomed off to Bagayam. Manish clung on for dear life behind me pale and tachycardic. I called up Cynthia and all of us landed together in Desmond’s Pool. As it turned out the ‘farewell’ was for Dr. Chandran – a Neurology Professor – & was pretty much high profile with lots of senior doctors and faculty (I felt like a nerd in Jeans and a Tshirt!) and the 2 ‘small’ songs were some Hindi pop number and “More than Words”. I still cant figure out how she convinced me it was OK to make take up the challenge. Soon after lots of delays and some kind of chord sequences, there I was holding a Yamaha guitar with 2 gorgeously beautiful girls (Woah…. they took my breath away!) who had stunning voices doing something I did not understand. I actually hit a couple of right chords I think!! I then scooted back to the auditorium at 9 PM (Cynthia… you said 7.30 PM) had a quick dinner. Srila was a great hostess. The rest of WH day was pretty dazed and I finally got back to my room still unable to figure out what all I did today… duh…just another day for you and me I guess
