Acting gig

 I got an opportunity to work with Vineet who is recording his EP. I got the guitarist’s part and I think I nailed it! The video team was very professional and they were on schedule. Padma made sure that all of us were well fed. The rehearsals were quite hectic we went through each of it meticulously. I’m hoping the video comes out good! 

Productive monday

 I did a lot of back and forth. Bank work with my parents, researched painting, met a few people to talk about it. I think I’ll settle with Asian paints Royale. Now I have to sample a few and settle on the design and colour. Dad just wants white. There also needs to be made a list of repair work and installations before we paint.  Today I’m off to work with the amazing Vineet Vincent. It’s an acting gig. I have to just act like a guitarist and play the exact notes as on the recording. So it’s my fingers who will be the real stars or just me grooving to the music. Fingers crossed. 

Selling some Mutual Funds.

 This was the first time I was selling my mutual funds. I was quite hesitant at first but I had to get some painting work done at home and buying paint on credit seemed to be a ridiculously stupid idea. So I sold it! Now I have to make money again. This is free interest money but somewhere there’s a painful pinch that I sold it. It is what it is. To make matters worse I made double withdrawal and I took the as a sign from above to maybe pay off some of that vehicle loan I have. Now life seems a bit more easy. 

Sunday

 I went to church and never set foot inside. Just sat outside, talking to friends and went for breakfast. Andy had helped buy Dog Man from blossoms for my niece. She seemed to be missing her parents so I spent a lot of time with her, we watched some YouTube together and I helped her get rid of some sneeze goo. After this I got a call from a potential guitar student. I’m hoping to find more students, so I don’t have to dig into my savings for expenses, anticipating a student drop this exam season. 

Jetros!

 Ordered some Jetros burger today for family. My mom did not like it. My niece and dad shared one, and Sebin Ujwal and I had 4 between us. The burger blew my mind. I like mine with extra peanut butter! I can’t wait to have it again! 

Swiggy Scam!

 I used the Swiggy instamart feature to order some groceries. I also made a payment online. The delivery person arrived and insisted that I pay the amount again as the online payment has not got through. He took cash from me. He also pointed out that it’s a glitch on the app and Swiggy will refund the money. I spent a lot of time to get this resolved online and nothing is done in my favour. Maybe the delivery guy was desperate for some cash! I feel bad for him! 

Painting my house!

We decided to paint the house, so I had been talking to people about what paint to use. Everyone are recommending expensive paints, Asian royale but I don’t think I’m going with that. I’ll just try the emulsion paint and be done with it than spending a ton of money on this.
