Petrol prices have
risen across the country and how! The common man is ruing their shameless act
of handing the reins of the country to corrupt and indifferent pansies.
But I have other things on my mind. Like this list that I drew up of my expenditure on my ride till date.

I still need to purchase a torch, a couple of locks, get duplicate keys for my bike and maybe purchase dri-fit tees. So, this list will be further updated. Bank account will be given a boost by borrowing 40k from my mom. Yes, I have to do that even at this age. But that’s life.
Yeah, and now, I can run 4 km
without getting tired and do 50 push-ups in 3 sets. So, there’s no chance of me
coming back on fitness grounds. The only thing now to hold me back will be the
rising fuel prices. And, what good will a Rs. 2 roll-back do? Now that I’m headed
to Delhi, I might as well ask that question.
