Assignment for gender course & other thoughts

Right now, I'm in the middle of an assignment for the certificate course in gender I've taken up. It is interesting because it is making me think of things that I normally don't think about. How I have been influenced by my grandmother and my mother for one. Secondly, it is asking what I want for women of the next generation. That too requires thought.
I also have to study for this oncoming series of entrance exams that are coming up. I haven't even seen my 12th class board certificate for over a decade. It is funny fishing it out again!!
Apart from that I have some things for work to finish. That is why I decided that today I would just chill out and spend doing something for moi. That includes the gender course btw. Ofcourse I should also be studying, but sometimes you need a break right?
What is interesting about competitive exams is that they can ask you anything under the sun. And these days the sun is very very bright!!
I went for a walk to the malls nearby today and bought my sister a shirt as a congratulatory present. I also bought some movies - Black Friday and Rann. I sat and watched Rann right now. I liked it. It was interesting.
Black Friday is directed by Anurag Kashyap, who has become a favourite director of mine after I saw Gulaal. Gulaal is a good film - it was the first film that my husband and I went and saw on our first date. Little did I know then that he hates Hindi films and wouldn't watch them in future with me!!
