This Day...Last Year....

The heat is on...
It's only march, and itz freaking hot!
nothing much to do...
I have been listenin to "The Scientist" by Coldplay on loop. It is an amazing song, it is like a melody to which you can swing to on..and on and on and on...and mind that guitar in the end, it's terrific!

ever wondered what were you doing this day last year???I was on a road trip across SA, heading towards Cape town. In fact, Holi last year was spent there. It was quite a memorable day. We saw the white sands and freaked out, it was just awesome! but the wierd part was that no one was in the water, we had heard about the shark incidents in the waters of the Atlantic, but come on this wouldn't let the surfers keep away from their second home. I kept wondering why....WHY there aint anybody in the water, I decided to find out myself.
Very boldly I marched towards the beach. took my footwear off and almost reached where the next wave was about to hit my feet. I was smiling ear to ear, then it strikes and.....and....my expression freezes on my face. The water is FREAKING COLD!!yeah, for all those who think playing ice-in-ur-clothes is a good idea, well come here and find out....my feet went numb, red, blue.....(cold water---due to winter approaching, SA in southern hemisphere..)
now i knew why people were outside enjoying their sunbath, and not inside the waters....I saw this guy giving me a smile which said" yeah yeah, play more in the water..ha ha"
yea man this gave me some idea what temperatures seals, penguins live in.
But I didn't give in, the cold couldn't dampen my spirits, I went ahead...quite a distance in the water, until I couldn't feel a thing.My mom and I were daring enough to stay there for more than 10 mins, that is a different thing that when we got out of the iced sea we had to sit in the sun for 15 minutes to regain our senses.
But hey it's not every day that one comes across a beach with almost ice cold water...
That's what I did last year on this day...
Wonder if it possible to recount every single day of last year, or even last week.....without keeping a diary....
lemme know if u remember what any of u did last year this day....
just a thought....
