New Happenings

The month of Feb so many new advents. Kushal and Arya have started guitar lessons at Yamaha on Sat afternoons. They are 2 lessons down and are greatly enjoying. They have different timings but the same teacher, so mostly the homework is going to be the same. I have signed up for Spanish lessons on Monday evenings, starting next Monday, with Vani and Nikita. Think it's going to be great fun. I remember when I wanted to master a lot of languages and a lot of dance forms. Maybe this year will see me make progress towards that goal.
This year for the first time, Kushal wanted to celebrate his own birthday. That's surely a first, I must be a good influence on him. We baked him a nice homemade cake and he took care of the rest of the food. He had only his few favorite people invited :-) and he was reluctant to even open any of his birthday presents.
We have been exercising regularly, one of these days I walked for 18km. The very next day I saw a python on the trail. That put me off the jogging track for a while.
I went to Rupee Room for a Girls nite, had fun with some new friends. Also watched a movie with Monisha - Bride Wars, it was cute. We also watched Slumdog Millionaire and liked it a lot, K liked it especially. But have heard so many detractors criticizing it that it almost feels like many people watched the same movie but took away different things. Waiting with bated breath to see how many oscars it bags. It got 4 Golden Globe awards.
