A clean sheet ...

Last week started on a high note after the wonderful weekend. I worked really hard on Monday and Tuesday, getting myself deeper and deeper into the labyrinth of the Kalman Filter. Its the central topic of a subject called Estimation Theory. The classes of the subject are as interesting as the filter itself (apart from the math, matters discussed in that particular class includes Globalization, the Battle of Britain, development of radar technology and the political intrigues in the world of Science!). But somehow from Tuesday night onwards, I lost myself into the labyrinth of Prison Break. One episode lead to another and it took me the whole week to complete the first season. Apart from the series, I had my weekly dose of single malt, eating out, cooking at home (this was Chicken weekend :)), cocktail and also the Quantum of Solace - which, to be honest, left me disappointed. On the other hand, I saw "Iti Srikanta", on Sunday afternoon, which was a nice film. I was impressed by its simplicity and honest portrayal of the characters. The village scenes brought back certain memories associated with "childhood" and the transit of Venus on a summer evening!
Sunday night is the time to contemplate on how I wasted the previous week and making promises for the week to come. The coming week is going to be difficult - something that I had almost forgotten after the past 2 weeks, that almost felt like a vacation after the ones prior to it. There is a lot to be done - term projects, take home exams, assignments. When I write a report by hand, I want it to be scratch free. It appeals to my aesthetic sense and makes me happy. I hope, I'll be able to keep the coming week like a clean sheet - and its important that I keep it that way for the coming weekend is likely to be the first weekend we venture out of Seoul for the first time on our own.
