Subject: Your plans

Dear,

TOEFL is a good idea. But the first thing is to find out how to get a Visa to the US for you. Anyway, it is nice to see you engaged in some work that interests you. You told me that you don't like to write exams! Anyway, I am glad you are doing something interesting to you that will keep you occupied.

Studying 3D graphics is ok, but we have to look at the chances of getting a job too. As I said, at some point in time you may feel like going for a job. Right now I don't have a suggestion, but I will also think of it.

This May, the first week, I may have to go to France for testing. This is not yet confirmed, but that is the general agreement.

Today we had a meeting with our coordinator from Germany and he said he was very pleased with our work. I have already finished my work, now I am assisting my colleague in his project. Today also there was not much work for me because he was busy. Tomorrow I will start.

To be frank, I didn't go to the temple yesterday, but today, I am going now. I have already asked one of my friends to come with me. As you said, it is because of my own mind. Not by aby persuasion. Honest. By the way, did you go to any temple???

Tomorrow I have a cricket match coming up. It is a do or die match. If we win, we will be in the finals. Wish me luck!

I have to wash a lot of clothes. For the last week, I haven't done any washing, so...it is sooo boring, you know.

Today my roommate is going to his home town. Why I am writing all these things? I don't know!!!!!!!!!!!

By the end of February, I am also planning to go home.

There is going to be a management change at our company's top level. We are going to be financed by a group of people called "venture capitalists" from the US. They will provide the money for our work, but as far as we are concerned, our work is not going to change much. So far so good. (This is also a movie name.)

Yesterday I saw clippings of the movie "vanaprastha" which was shown in your film festival. I understood why it was a bit difficult for you to follow it. Most of the things mentioned in the movie are from our old religious epic books. It will be difficult for a foreigner to grasp all the things from the movie. Now I think I could have brought one or two tapes of our movies with me so that you can get an idea of our film industry. In India, Malayalam films are very much reputed.

Boring things! Right? Ok, I will wind up now...got to go to the temple...bye...

Love

Kamal
