Slight change in plan, but still a fun weekend

The original plan was to meet up with DNA and Peter on Sunday. Yet, SOMEBODY (from Indianapolis) assumed that I wasn't going down because I was still in Madison Saturday night, and was having lunch/had lunch already when I called!!! Only if he were to check his voice-mails! So it was only Peter, Linda and I having dim sum and catch up with each other. There really isn't much going on for either for us (haha - is that a good thing), but it was nice seeing old friends from college.

As I was driving out from the parking lot, I noticed the Civic in front of me had a IN license plate. And a second after, the driver of that Civic rolled down his window and waved at me - more folks from Purdue! This time, it's mostly the "seniors" whom I have met when they were still freshmen (and I've already graduated and left Lafayette). I guess time really flys. Honestly, I don't remember anymore how many "freshmen" I met throughout all these years. Once a while I would think about this and am pretty amazed how I met all these folks (only to be reminded that i am getting olders....T_T).

DNA's planning to go to watch Purdue vs. IU on 11/19. Let see if that will happen. HKSA is having the annual B-ball tourney this year on 11/4, and I am tempted to go down as well. Luckily, with my brother's recent relocation to Indianapolis - I think I could visit Purdue more often. I can now kinda justify flying down to Indy (Madison to Indy is a 5.5 hrs drive so very unlikely I will do that), visit my brother and then go up to Purdue.

Another interesting turn, met Kelvin during dinner. It turns out that he knew someone working at my company; and that guy is in WebCorps as well! What a small world. :)

Unrelated note: Belinda's leaving for HK in Nov, I guess I'll meet her this winter then.
