Formula 1 fever running high
The British GP is on now and I don't think it would be wrong to call it the most exciting and eagerly awaited race of the season, so far. This is Lewis Hamilton's first race at his home track but the Ferraris have been performing really well this past week or so thus the fans are expecting a serious competition between McLaren and Ferrari. Unfortunately, it isn't being broadcasted live in Australia (delayed by an hour) so I'm a bit pissed off but have quit my feed reader etc. so that I don't find out the outcome before I get to watch it.
Other than that this was probably the laziest week of my life. All I did was eat, sleep and listen to Harry Potter audiobooks. I'm hoping to get back on track soon cause Semester 2 begins next Monday and I've got a lot of work to get through before that. Oh and do check out my Webmarks, something I'd been wanting to start from a long time.

Yahoooo! Kimi won again. As for Hamilton, I think it was something wrong with his car, but he's still won a podium place for each of his 9 races.
Thanks Tarun. It would be amazing if there's a GP in Delhi in 2009 and I hope our government makes it happen.

When you sent me the Webmarks link, I thought you had finished the WP Plugin.

I decided (partly due to my lazyness) it isn't worth the effort to make the LinkedList script a WP plugin.

I know. Unless you're able to market it, it won't be of much use.

Well not really. Its not like I'm making anything out of LinkedList currently.

Well hope you get the enregy to do all your pending work soon, coz you know in 2 weeks something else will occupy your time ;)

In two weeks I'll be sad that its all over. Ten days from now however, I'll be locked up in my room, disconnected from the world as I join Harry in his final adventure.

thanks a nice pic..
I was reading those comments that were talking about grand prix taking place in Delhi in 2009…. I was elated to read that news quite some time back in the news papers. At the same time Delhi is “trying” to prepare itself for Commonwealth Games 2010, but unfortunately there is no sign of progress… The news channels are busy showing the bare lands that have been proposed for a common wealth games village…. A few days ago TOI reported that out of about 20 proposed new Hotels only 2–3 tenders have been passed by DDA… Man!! conditions are bad, but im still hopeful!!

Sad but true. This is why none of us think its actually going to happen in 2009 but, like you said, we're all hopeful.

The Japanese flag is probably being held by some supported for the Japanese driver Takuma Sato.
