I'll be leaving for my convocation on the 2nd of Feb. Will visit home after that and finally return to Bangalore on the 12th. It's gonna be very hectic.
There's a mini-bookfair at our company premises and I may be in the mood to buy. Top of the list:
  1. A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth
  2. Ulysses by James Joyce
  3. Glimpses of World History by Jawaharlal Nehru
