... of the weekend

Synopsis of the weekend: 3 day weekend - friday: general ghoting- 4 hours sleep skipping lunch- met old PG mates- McDonalds treat - second time Chandramukhi (still it was good)- lota phone calls

saturday: time waste in the morning- home alone with roomies at work - Anbe Vaa- sort of wing reunion- 8 of us met and had dinner together - Thanks to the person who came down from Germany

sunday- shopping for no reason, just like that - San Marino GP 2005

Movie of the weekend: I would give this to Anbe Vaa.Enjoyed every bit of it. MGR was too good with his comedy, never thought of him as a good comedian. Liked that part of him a lot. MGR- Naagesh combo rocked. Look how many songs TMS and P.Susheela have immortalised through this movie alone!:


a) Pudhiya Vaanam, Pudhiya Bhoomi, Engum Panimazhai Pozhigiradhu
b) Love Birds Love Birds, Thakka Dhimi Thaa Endra Thaalathil Vaa
c) Naan Paarthadhile Aval Oruthiyai Thaan Nalla Azhagi Enben
d) Raajaavin Paarvai Raaniyin Pakkam

Felt good singing with them all these great great songs as I was watching it.

Hero of the weekend: Ha ha. The king is back. Even though he didnt take the top step of the podium, coming from 13th on grid to 2nd was an achievement indeed. And lost by just 0.215 of a second. Call me a monomaniac, I dont bother. It was great fun watching the 'Michael Magic' working once again. And to see him get past Jenson at Variante Alta is something I would remember for a long time now.

Sad Face of the weekend: I normally dont do this, I usually feel happy about it, but yesterday, felt sad to see Kimi retire. He did everything right, fastest in both qualifying, on pole, was leading the spaniard comfortably in the race and suddenly, retires! Poor Kimi!

Lucky and Star of the weekend: Who else, except for our championship leader, Fernando Alonso and lucky, for the reason stated above! But, I appreciate the way alonso blocked and shut the door on schumi whenever he tried to get past, during those last 10 laps of the race.These are the indications of the heir to the throne which Michael has to vacate one day anyway! And mathematics would say, under the hypothetical situation that Schumi wins all the races from now, and Alonso finishes second to him all the time, it would still take 13 races for schumi to catch alonso and 14 races hence to get past alonso.(And the number of races left now for the year is 15). Thats the enormous lead alonso has built up now. But, in this totally unpredictable game, anything can happen. This heart still wants schumi to win the 8th title, but its going to be really difficult for him to do that this time. Lemme wait and watch.

i didnt watch the race, but it was disheartening to read that kimi had to retire on lap 9 with a gearshaft failure. gives me memories of europe 2003, where he had to retire when he was leading, on lap 26,i suppose. :(
