Just Sarin

 I had joined the Delhi Secret Santa project, not knowing what to expect. Had spotted a few tweets around it, and a hash tag, but wasn't really sure about what it was. Browsed the twitter feed, and kind of figured it to be a fun way to celebrate Christmas.

 I opted in, and then waited to be selected - which I was in the 4th round, I think. I was assigned my santee, and I started looking around for a gift for them. It was great fun to rack my brains, trying to figure out something that would be appealing to them, and finally, after much thought, I was able to pick out a CD and a book that I thought would be interesting.

 On the other side of the equation, I also waited for my gifts to roll in. One day in office, I suddenly got a call from the Secret Santa team saying that there was a courier boy waiting at my house, but since no one was around, he wasn't able to deliver. For an instant, I didn't connect the dots and was wondering why I had received a courier. When I got home, I had a CD of The Dark Knight waiting for me, and a couple of days later a set of three Jeffrey Archer books.

 I'm now busy reading and watching! What a great end to 2012 and an even better start to 2013.

 Thank you my Secret Santa for figuring out good things for me! I'm glad I made your good boy list this year :-)

Sarin.
