200 meters long "Q" awaited me at GUINDY railway station. - yup finally I was set to leave for B'lore.. n yup I was waiting for that.

2 days before - I tried hard ... real hard to book the TATKAL ticket ,with 2 Mbps internet speed, from Chennai to Blore but... all went in vain.. it was waiting 67 .. n the clock 2 mins past 8.. now would you believe it ??? ... I would like to meet the lucky guys who got their precious PASS to spread themselves on the "golden" birth of INDIAN RAILWAYS -- may be my mind refuse to believe it-- ohhh.. are they really human ...

Anyway if you like it short and simple here it goes :- I didn't get the tickets, which means trouble ahead.

Night before - Things been never be easy for me when it comes to "have fun", be it in college or be it in Company. Who else in the world will work on Saturday ..that to on Jan 1 .. n that too in Nights.. all alone .. No sleep... not for a second.. I was waiting for the clock to hit that 7:30 A.M.. I just wanted to run away from here .. Anyway it did.. ( Not going much into ofc works of that time, better left unsaid ). I was in my flat around 8.. morning turns refreshing and even Chennai.. smiling... Beautiful it was and beautiful it had to be...
meanwhile, I tried for Bus ticktes-- useless..
I packed my stuffs and gobble something I didn't even remember now.

GUINDY - Long queue didn't stop me from coming the TOP DOG.

Chennai Railway station :- It was all crowded.. seemed like the whole world is moving to Banglore and it was the last possible means of transport - the banglore express. Anyway.. I was looking for the one "dabba" where I can stand atleast. Then.. I heard someone ... "Banglore jana hai?" - I was like .. han Bhai..
"Window seat" -- Me : Kitna loge? {Of course.. was talking about money only .. dirty mind }.. "30 rupya" -- Me : thik hai :-) .. I got the seat .. n it was the omen "u will be having a great time ahead".. and yes it was - when the same man sold the seat next to me to a beautiful girl for "20 rupya" ..I helped her shoving her bags .. I pulled a novel out of my bag and started reading.. yeah I was reading ... not just pretending .. ok ok mix of both. But.. the man seating next to her told her to swap the seats with her wife.. - unwillingly she said "yes" .. n she looked at me for help..in pulling her bags out .. I gave a blank look and continued reading. [TIT for TAT, :-( ]

That doesn't stop there.. couple beside me had 2 moron children. I hadn't slept for the last 2 days approx., the moment I closed my eyes.. one of them shouted .."itbei haibt bituna kihsi "- I don't know..but I heard something like this.. n the other one made task easier for me .. he translated this alien language as "itne bade hoke abhi so rhe hai UNCLE "..I was like "tera baap nahi sota hai kya" but ..held my tongue.. n their "chi po chi po" .. continued for next 6 hours depriving me even a slim chance of catching a nap.

Banglore City :- WOW.. was the feeling and wow was the weather .. when I reached. I got the direction from "Bakku" - which bus I have to take and where I have to get down. "Pare" called me asking "Kya laana hai n Kitna " .. n it resulted in 2 B.D full.. though I was advocating for 3 but.. they settled for 2. ( couldn't argue more as I was on bus.. and more importantly they were in MAJORITY ).. I felt down.. :-( .. only 2.. huh.. but anyway.. 2 it was. So, let it be..

Electronic City Phase II - I got down at the bus stop.. and moved to a nearby bakery shop - asked for a "dairy milk" when I heard a voice - "ek aur bol hi do"- Bakku with his broad smile .. I hate to share chocs or even gift chocs.. but.. you don't always get to do what u love.

We reached his flat - BIG n BOOMING - found budhwa sitting on couch with Madhu.. these two guys are from Chennai and one is my roomie so even a casual Hi seemed wastage of energy at that time.

Was looking for other guys but ..they just left to get the stuffs.. except "Pare" who was very much in his fav. zone "the bathroom" with face wash :P. After 15 odd mins he came out... n yaar .... I can not express it .. how it felt.. words seem failing for me.. " you with someone for 4 long years seeing each other in every possible state and then more than 1.5 years gap.. " A real tight hug .. and all exchanged without uttering a word "I missed you" - "I missed u too yaar".. celebrated this with puffs of SUTTA.

Budhwa was also in his zone "Chicken king in Kitchen" - 6 yummy leg pieces vanished from Kadhai into our tummy. {Boy, ( don be happy u will still be the budha .. but for angrezi sake .. let it Boy).. u r into wrong field - u r so good a cook that u can give a run to the KFC.. better to do it soon else some Ratatouille will do it after you ....}..

Now.. we all were waiting for the "bottles" [Happy n *anda] to come.

*anda :- no change really. No use of wasting words over him.. A tight hug.. with kaisa hai :-)... jhakaaashhh!!

Happy - a guy with one of those teeth .. u know .. Moushmi Chaterjee :-)..Between those - Kaise ho - ache hai - I noticed he has lost some more hair ;-) and gained some belly.. I also compete him in these two dept.

After having dinner
"Backk"uuuuu -
Two of us holding Bakku from his legs and hands in the air.. and rest of us... whaammm ... his BACK and our BOOT -- he was also getting the taste after quite a long time :D - but he has all the experience in the world on this.. so no problems for him...

I was getting a lil impatient but then it came -- it's time -- "The BD time" and here it was-
"Unseal the bottle.. spread the glass... make the peg" - I am good at it :-).. and I have experience of doing this regularly during college - beautiful - days or should I say nights.

So, all set for "You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on." Night ..

1st peg -- Bottom-s-Up.. hona chaiye - shouted Parey.. there u go.. Anything for u Sir.. said all ... and "Cheers" - Photo clicked... and Bottom-s-Up it was..

Madhu Out -- :-)..

We have some favs. when it comes to "MAARNE or Jinki leni hai" - n leading the chart are -
*anda, parey, Bakku, madhu, budha.. :D

And it was started one by one .. and on n on..
We were into "Kurkure contains plastic" thing ...then..
Suddenly, Madhu poured some whisky into the cap and started burning it .. "The Burning Shot" -U can't do it here bro.. but at least he tried and it was not anywhere near burning shot but u can't teach someone who is drunk n about to drop!!
so better let him think he has done it. :-)

Every passing second was an "aaha" moment. Sitting there was so comforting ..

It was last peg -

Silently .. we were sipping in from our glasses...

Madhu finished his first... then sucked every possible drop of Whisky from the bottle and again tried for that burning shot.. a better performance this time...

It was around 4 - he took his wallet .. pulled out .. "papers with Gandhi jee on it" - yes Indian rupayaa - "Aey *anda la do na kahin se daaru please.. sala itna kam kyu laaye the ..." - he was like "Madhu 4 baj gaya kahan milega" but hero of the day "Madhu" - la do na re kahin se ...

He slept with Indian currency in his hand and daaru daaru on his lips :-)..

Parey, Budhwa, Happy and I mag over some old talks with Dil chahta hai playing in the background. How soothing music can be ...is a mystery. How some beautiful lines captivate your mind and shrug all the "loads" from your mind is a real mystery for me. I prayed the time to stop there and then... but...

Fir se mile jo hum deewane.. to ye samjhe to ye jaane .. hum v rahe rahe yaar humare jahan.. aaye nahi kabhi koi hum me duriyan... Dil chahta hai .. Dil chahta hai..

Thank u all for such a wonderful Night...See U soon Guys!! LOVE U ALL!!!

Training for this week has been canceled, don’t have many options but to walk down the memory lane and recollect some thoughts and memories. As I skipped the open hall meeting with India’s vice president of the company today, it reminds me of thing the ENGINEERS are really good at – BUNKING. It’s just one of those several things we are good at. Wikipedia can give you definition of Engineer but it is not an Engineer itself. So, don’t trust it fully. I am adding something more to that.
ENGINEERS- we can divide it in two categories-
1. Male
2. Female

Ladies first “the gentleman concept and I am the one” so beginning with them – those four years of their engineering is undoubtedly the best of their lives. You can’t ask for more. You get what you like-degree, job, guys around you, you just keep counting on number of proposals you are getting and so on.. (excuse the pun of so on.. ;-)). In short you can try everything you want to (biggest advantage of being in a hostel).

Male- “Ready to get committed “ is the best way I can put it. During the first year they try to impress the girls as they know work of 2-3 months or even few weeks may bring the fruits for rest 44 or so months. So, there is nothing wrong in giving your best shot (if there is a girl in your campus to work at). But if they don’t succeed which is the most likely result the best you can do is to ogle at those girls and keep teasing the boys who succeeded.
But, for all this there must be some good looking girls. And, if you don’t find any your best bet are ORKUT, FACEBOOK, and others from the same genes. Start sending as many requests as you can and hoping that they will get accepted. And be ready for introduction sessions and now you have more chances to impress them (if 1 goes wrong try on another 1 and if that also goes wrong try on another 1 carry on), keep this in mind- “ENGINEERS NEVER SAY I QUIT” whether it’s a cigarettes, whisky, backlogs, or beautiful lass. The moment you tell her you are an Engineer, it will be like ohh another engineer, ohh this college ya ya I know I received some request yesterday also from the guy of your college, you people are not touchy feely. Better to swallow her words and try to move into a nice conversation with her. Flirt can turn the things on, it surely can. You talk so nice, you have a style, I never thought like this, I am impressed- pampering a girl can do wonder. They like this.
I was chatting with a girl –
She wondered who am I to comment on her pic.
Me: Introduction (partially only, I want her to ask again)
And she asked wt r u doing? Engineering?
I said good guess and you banged it right. What a genius u are.
Thank you but you guys are not touchy-feely.
Now, what does that mean, but the answer I chose for her is –
Yes we are sensible people, I can tell which color u like the most- pink and black, sometimes white. Yup I touched the right point,dead right, then, started the talks what engineers are capable of. So, no matter how many friend requests are rejected, be on the ball to send the next one keep doing that and you will found yourself in 3rd year of your graduation, placement time, a little study, lots of emotions – of joys and sadness, but when it passes it left you as a different person more mature, more sensible, attitude towards life changed but you are still an ENGINEER you can’t deny that so keep running for girls.
MORAL OF THE STORY :
BE ON THE BALL, RUN WITH THE BALL, START THE BALL ROLLING, KEEP THE BALL ROLLING but you don’t have much time left so BALL THE JACK, but don’t blow your shot by rushing but also DON’T DROP THE BALL and STAY AWAY FROM CARRYING THE BALL.

If you ask me which sem u enjoyed the most ..i ll say 1st and last.
If yous ask me which sem u experienced the most ...its indelible 3rd sem.
A week leave after 30 days of exhausting 1st year's exam is just a jot, so we made it two ..[not enough though,but somehow....("India adjust kariyo")]
Back to college nothing changed much but our attitude ..we became somehow complacent in everything ..started bunking the classes on regular basis esp. classes after break,taking snaps everywhere , in GROUPS..within no time we were up with our 1st internal exam ..n it was not a glitch..anyway we jotted down the papers and bunked the EC test (don't know why)..I (not only I) tanked in all those papers ,but hardly cared.Now comes the season of new admission ,we were waiting for this since we took admission .
We got new and fresh spuds to..... ;-)
supreme court: Ragging is an offense..blah blah ..
but with all due respect to apex court ..plz excuse me ..
"if u follow all the rules u ll loose all the fun.."
everything was going fine ...till this :
We had heard of some boys[three] who were kind of revolting against the seniors [and this always hurts the newly born mind of the seniors ] so we planned [i regret this ,how could we]..anyway we did.
We took them to a kind of remand room type place ...dark, no windows ...
with no more than two slaps two of them burst into apologies..huhh ..happy seniors ...
one was still denying the orders of so called seniors ...
18-19 were there barring 3-4.. all just started beating him brutally ..one single guy ..though he deserved every punch he got but still ...its not the way ..[now only i come to know that]
then came our seniors and they took him from there..now the story begun...
the same night [it was university fest]..we got news of police complaint against us ,rumored all around of some arrest also..we didn't have any option but to run from the city and we did the same, its ar. 11 and the train already left for kanyakumari so we got a bus for Calicut.
12-13 of us were in the bus ...we got 4-5 seats n we managed [INDIA adjust kariyo ]somehow for 6 hrs n we reached there,took a hotel near the bus depot n we planned to tour Waynad but damn true you won't get what you planned ..all our plans into the shit after two hours...the fone rang n was Dubey on other side telling us to come back to kochi else the boy is going to launch an F.I.R against us ...that was enough to stir us ...thousands of thoughts zipped through mind ...now what .
what we r going to do ,we all finished ...and on n on...bullshit ..
we were exhausted physically as well as mentally after such a debilitating night
anyway ..
we rushed to rly stn. ,got tickets of local train..
1 sweet memory that i recollect i found a "50 rupees note [i still have that]" on rly stn.
the train came ..hardly any space in the local but we somehow grappled our way into the compartment for the most shitty journey of my life..the crowd with a smell of coconut was adding salt to the wound....
i was so exhausted that i slept between aisle ..i could count numbers of footprints on my t-shirt n jeans but i really didn't care about that ..
we reached the campus ar 1 ..
Dubey informed that he[the boy] was telling about 7 guys ..
And then i saw how FATTU [the bastards who always boasted of being the WARRIOR "dick"]some of us turned in no time...
"friends don't come good by dozens"
at last seven fools [including me]..were chosen for the so called trial ..and we went there ..2 two super seniors [one from both the parties] ..we had to listen the nonsense talking without any arguments and kept lulling myself by the saying "every dog has its day"..
yes sir echos with whatever he said... and rightly so ...yes sir u r the fucking boss right now and we are the rats ..
3 hours the indelible 3 hrs ....we the innocent moppets keep repeating yes sir ..
thumbed the stamp paper in which terms and conditions ...[i don't want to write more on this..]

SS: You guys have to apologize to the guy
I: Not happening ( Na - Nahi hoga.. have never been so blunt in saying a "NO")
Again the same arguments - I was sticking to the same line "Na - Nahi Hoga" - count? atleast 10 times...

finally "sorry exchanged"...with the most unwilling smile i ever had ...i felt like killing someone ..
we came out ..thanked the senior who propped us throughout the one way hearing..thanks sir thanks once again ...
everyone was angry and relieved ...strange but ...this was so...
A few more incidents which taught a lot ..

then got Onam vacation a much needed break from college ,came back home ,steady things up
and then back to college with "more EXPERIENCE and a few FRIENDS".

Revenge --- to be continued.

A somnolent summer day and i always avoid going out in such sweltering heat [particularly if have some meaningful work to do] my heart skipped a beat.. as papa told me to get a reservation .. ohhh i was almost in a cry baby zone .. :-( ,anyway i the pillock pilloner[without caring about what time it was] trudged to auto stand and then reached to the terminal.I went upstairs and the scene there was ridiculously crowded as if people were waiting for bipasha basu's "no entry " live and i was a more ridiculous addition to that .I took the form n search my pocket for pen n no surprise i lost that on auto i went to one uncle and asked him if he could loan me his pen for 2 min he gave me only after saying these super words "kya jee student ho ke bhi pen nhi rkhte ho apne pas kya padhoge tum log bekare maa baap paisa kharch kar rha hai tumlog pe", i just smiled with a lamb like visage and thanked him for his gyan.After filling the reservation form i was looking for the smallest queue i should jump into,after finding people there much smarter than me i beelined to one and was on number 12,its been 1:25 already by that time that is 35 more minutes in lunch time i was sure enough that i would have to wait long enough.Though the person of my window was doing it quite fast some still "aise kaam hota hai kahin etna dheere dheere kar rha hai na ii kaisa kaisa ko baitha deta hai counter pe hatao buddha sab ko blah blah ......."[its the reason they sit in chamber surrounded by glass so they couldn't hear these nonsense]and some "aey bhai jee line me aaiye ...kaise ghush rhe hai aap waha aap line me the kaise aa gaye line me aaiye " and other in support "han han gazab halat kiye hue hai line me aaiye " and the one whom everyone taking on advocated for himself saying "are hum to kab se the line me poochiye na bhai jee se the ki nhi the aap boliye to the na hum yaha pe" and lastly it all settled out..n then there come a girl with killing looks ...huuhh hott...the best thing u can do while standing in a queue is look all around find a sweet gorgeous gal or bhabhi [depends on what kind of range u have] if u could and keep stealing glances if you don't have guts to keep staring at her,despite there was a separate window for ladies she wanted to join these queues and the worse she came to my queue ,being a girl its natural to have all the preferences in world and she went straight to number 1 and guess what no stopping for her this time no1 shouted on her on why she just flung to that number 1 spot not even advised her to join the queue for ladies ..well done gentleman including me .. i was on number 4 that time and 15 more min to go..and she made it number 5 for me... i felt like killing her but "its good to get what u want and its better if u don't" and she had some cancellation forms and she , a truculent beauty ate up 10 min with her nonsense arguments with amazingly polite ticket staff...and i was having same frustrating feeling as Anil kumble does have when some one misfields on him ...and he cann't do anything except standing akimbo and the same i was doing..and then the worse ..its clock striking 2 and the man left for lunch ..though the laugh i could fetch from there is that its not me on number 1 slot...hehehe...that guy was saying "sir ruk jaiye na mera kar dijiye ... " n he said "sab to yhi kahega aur fir aane me late tab sab gaali bhi dega ..ab rukiye "..n he went..n i waited for another half n hour ..he was punctual he came back at right time but he didn't have changes so i had to run for that ...in damn heat.. :-( but i got the ticket..was so very much relaxed coming out from there leaving such a long queue ready for same drill..came out posing S & R ..swigged liter of water get an auto n back home sweet home ...victorious me!!!!

On 13th of April 2009,we were done with all our B.tech papers.With a new life bang in front of our eyes we decided to drink till we were too tired to hold the glass.This "we" include 8 or 9 guys i was too drunk to recall the exact numbers, my money on 8 though.All were on..and i was taking in every minute of revelry in front of my eyes.It was a mixed feeling or again i was failing to react in situation.I knew that life would never be the same again ,the four years at college had been a lot more than about getting a job or a well framed degree and it was only now that i was realizing it.It wasn't just the basic things like fending for yourself or staying awake for nights or have fun,it was also the exposure that the experience gave me.I have met and lived with some brilliant people,observed them,heard them.We had broken down in harsh system but we had picked ourselves right back up to fight again.Whisky all over in the room and on the mind..we had talked some nonsense but this is what for which you say cheers..we drove down the memory lane and get a flash back of all the four years we spent together..and then we raised last drink of the night and proclaimed that we would always stay in touch despite the distances and demands...after the rocket drink all fell asleep except me and one more..its around 4:30 and we two sat down on steps ..i looked up and closed my eyes and everything seemed to flash in front of my eyes..the day i came there,my first ragging session,my first internal exam,my first external,third semester,challengers cup[kudos to cse guys],first result,first placement day,waynad trip,all the friday nights and every peg of whisky[especially 6th peg onwards]..football in nights..i now opened my eys and saw the stars zipping all across the twirling sky,leaving behind sharp blazes of light..i came back to my room..and went through all the pics we got together...from 1st yr to the date ..and thanked heartily to one who invent camera ..and felt blessed with the moments i got there..i loved to be there..its then only whisky got over me now ,i felt dizzy and decided to lie down on my bed took in deep breath and closed my eyes smiling at all time i spent here..truly some moments you couldn't erase from your life..what a blessing this memory is,its no going back there but it will always inspire a smile :-)..so move on!!!
