Last night I went to bed having completed a little achievement. There really is no feeling greater than doing something to improve your surroundings just before going to bed. I swapped lightbulbs between two lamps so the one over my bed works. Very satisfying.
Today has been pretty busy. Woke up at 8 had breakfast and a shower then came onto TIFR to check email to see if I'd got anything from CJ and Tara. I hadn't. Then went into town to sort out their accomodation. Had a bit of a wander around, nothing major. Some cool buildings in that part of town, aswell as slums. Only got accosted 4 times, which I thought was good going. Missed the bus so took a cab back here. Unfortuneatly the driver didn't know where here was. I was lost so couldn't direct him, and thought perhaps it was a language thing (I know how much I mumble) so wrote down TIFR and its address on some paper (I luckily had). He gets out the cab and asks this bloke for directions! And then charges me full fare! Good to see cabbies are the same the world over.
This evening, after some serious code hacking, my eyes were squares so I went for a walk along the Sea wall. The sun was setting and the sky looked like rust. Bats were flying about catching things. There are these cool garden lights along the wall which I really like - going to take a photo later. It was nice. The view across the bay is pretty cool too, especially at night. In the day you can see that some of the buildings are falling down, but at night the sky line is as impressive as any I've seen. You can also see the pollution, I realised that it was actually bloking out the sunset a little.
Right and now back to work! Ha ha!
Aimless noise and insights into my little world
