Day 312 - 9th October 2011

Had a pretty eventful day today. As is the norm on a rest day, woke up at 1030 and had breakfast at Chota. Did a little FIF1 work before lunch. Post lunch a few of us went to see Real Steel at PVR. I hadn't heard of the movie before but it turned out to be quite entertaining. It was similar to the storyline of Rocky, just that this time it was Robots who were fighting. Came back to campus by 730 in the evening, just in time for the CLT20 finals between MI and RCB. Dont know after how many years I saw an entire cricket match. MI started off well but then a batting collapse after the 15th over saw them score a below par 139. It was expected that RCB would chase it down quite easily considering the fact that they chased 200+ scores in their previous two games. However the fact that they were playing at Chepauk for the first time in the tournament worked against them and once they lost Dilshan and Gayle it was never going to be very easy for them. This was MI's first tournament victory and it felt good to watch it live on TV. Surfed the net a bit and started with a little groundwork for the dissertation proposal. Hope start making some progress tomorrow onwards!
