Just How Cool !!!

Brrr... and then some! Thats how I've been for the last few days.

Mumbai / Bambai / Bombay... whatever you like calling the city, is - contrary to the thoughts of many, not hell. I can vouch for that now because it did (at least to an extent) freeze over. And hell, it is said does not freeze. (Or at least I hope so. I promise every uninteresting guy that I will think about him when hell freezes over.)

I'm a regular when it comes to using shawls, sweaters, and all that. But most years, I look like a total nut, being the only one wearing anything remotely warm in the non-existent winter here. but this year, I had lots of company. Sale of woollies shot up this year as Mumbai touched record lows that went into single digits for a total number of days that went into double digits. Over the winter, we've had just over three weeks of bitter cold in total, with the last cold spell lasting a week and a half at a stretch. The official lowest we saw was 8.5 degrees Celsius... though some claim it was much lower.
To add to it, I live in the suburbs, and we traditionally are lower by a degree or so as compared to the city. Freeze off oh fingers... and So much the better for the shawl-sellers!

When I was a student at Ruia, I roamed about getting odd looks - thanks to my affinity for woolens. So this year, as a lecturer there, I was wondering how my students dear would respond to a bundled up teacher. But why worry? I have students who are far better at the art. And needed at Ruia, I may add; since we on the top floor are treated to a wonderful and energizing continuous breeze that blows in from over the Arabian sea! I'm just amazed at the number that turned up through it all... and that too for writing a set of exams! I'm quite proud of them I must say....

My Hogwarts House

The sorting hat says that I belong in Ravenclaw!

<

Said Ravenclaw, "We'll teach those whose intelligence is surest."

Ravenclaw students tend to be clever, witty, intelligent, and knowledgeable.
Notable residents include Cho Chang and Padma Patil (objects of Harry and Ron's affections), and Luna Lovegood (daughter of The Quibbler magazine's editor)

Incedently, my scores for Gryffindor and Hufflepuff were just a mark less. I wonder, does the Sorting Hat worry at such times... about scoring errors, situational factors and all that error variance? Or does it just follow the "Highest Score Assignment" strategy?

Well, Happy Sorting! :)
