Project.

This started when my aunt (in Indian culture everyone is your aunt, unless they are male -in which case they are your uncle)....when my "aunt" came to Gravesend.

She has this book in which the author writes out his conversations with his university professor. The story itself is quite short, therefore classifying it as a 'quick read.' My father had borrowed it; his feelings on the book; "it's okay, I didn't enjoy it much. It was just a quick read. It's okay..."

Anyway, my aunt suggested, quite loosely, that I should do a similar sort of thing, except interview my father; I mean that's a wonderful idea, but I've done something of the same nature before. It was a 'Day In The Life Of'; in his case, a doctor. Initially, I didn't think much of it, mainly because she suggested I should do the interview with him; but over the coming days I seriously thought about it, as a legit project in between college and assignments and whatnot; exams too. Yes! Exams -being a student does have its perks. I jest. Back to topic at hand...

...Eventually, I was adamant that I would do this, and to make sure I would not go back on my word, I posted the idea onto the Blogger forum; because that way if I did get any response, I wouldn't be able to back out; and at first, I didn't think I'd get any responses at all. Not one. So it was extremely awesome to see people who were really interested in said project.

AND NOW: Well, as I said before, I'm sort of doing this in between college, university etc so it may (or may not) take a while to get things all perfect, you know?

I've got to email everyone, to sort of communicate any ideas I may have, or they may have etc.
Gah, I hope it works out. It would be so lovely to do this, and I guess it would (maybe?) help with my ambition to become a journalist, no?

My 'to-do' list just got a little bit longer. Awesome. Don't worry, I like being productive. (:
