6-6-99 Sunday

From morning till afternoon did not go anywhere, reading news only. 

In the afternoon, went to Sanjay Gandhi National Park.

So much crowd. 

Train is the only feature.

Forgot all about the rest.


Romance is a matter of timing, the girl has to give in before the boy gives up.


Evening went to Juhu by 203- upto Barfi Boad- it is only S.V. Road-going south on the way, Kandivili, Theatre Govasvadi junction, Malad Exchange, Exchange Quarters and GM West II, of Mahindra Garden, Goregaon, Cinemax, Jogeshwari Exchange, Andheri & JP Road Jn, HSBC, McDonalds, Andheri Station Barfi Road - turns left, again to right to ISKCON Road - To South Guru Nanak Road   Got down at Traffic, led to many problems in locating the stop in the return.


The Vinayak Temple has many visitors. Utpal Singh School - long and occupies the street.

Chandan Theatre_ ISKCON  temple- mobbed on Sunday esp. the Canteen - not able to track Juhu, Return by 298 to Andheri via a bus with I.M.A in background, the J.P. Road, AH Wadia School (Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan) Naurang theatre, Andheri market (missed 203, 5 times, not stopping), New Era Cinema, Gem Wines opposite Tana, R.K. Wine in Malad after Poisar ,

Bus too slow, came at 1040, started at Juhu at 0740, memory is so unreliable, repetition and association strengthen it.


When I wake up, if I think of results, I become moody and

unexcited(melancholic). Instead think of first steps, actions and important long term actions.
