Excited.. Am I??

Coming weekend I am going to London. All the facts about this trip should get me super excited.. but somehow I am not.


The facts:

2000th test match in cricket history - 100th between India and England - Sachin Tendulkar looking at scoring his 100th ton and conquering the one ground he has not been able to do well on! - Test team no. 1 Vs Test team no. 2 - a series that will decide who remains on top - venue: the Mecca of cricket: Lords!! - And I am going to see this match!

Now, read the second line of this blog and you will think that I have really gone nuts not to be excited about this. But really - there are very very few things now-a-days that I really get super excited about. I dont know what is wrong with me but I have seen this happen. I take things very normally rather than the normal looking forward to that I always used to do. And trust me, it is more fun to experience something when you start looking forward to it weeks in advance. All that waiting makes it all the more fun to finally get there.

May be I am aging (I prefer this term than saying growing old :-)). With age, one tends to be more calm towards things. May be this is what is happening to me. I never wanted this to happen. I always wanted to keep that youth like fervor in my life. But I really am mellowing down. :-(

But still.. there are some things still that I do get excited about. Like a very dear friend of mine is visiting me next weekend... and I am so so so looking forward to it.. Yeah, I think I get the most excited now when I get to meet good friends of mine... And I don't think that this will ever change.. at least I hope that it won't! I always would luv to share a couple of drinks and catch up with people I luv being with.. and they are very few! :-)

What else do I look forward to now... hmmm... yeah.. I am desperately waiting for the last batman movie by Nolan! :-). cant think of anything else as of now... Will think about it and update! Introspection needed! Till then...

Cheers!
