A toast to the married -- Cheers!!!

A short trip to Udupi for my Pg mate's wedding ceremony was very exciting and mind refreshing. A break from the monotonous life was top most in the list so all of us were looking forward for this trip. Before i continue further, lemme introduce to our family members..

Bhagya - The beautiful bride :)
soumya - on the move all day long
shammu - bedbug attractor (trust me for this :P)
archie - counselor (specialist)
shikha - adviser (general)
binds - all time criticizer
me - absent minded professor..

8:30 PM: As always i was the last person to reach and someone had to wait for me in the pg.. but somehow we made it to the bus stop ON TIME :)

9.00 PM: Bus left our place.. all excited we were at top of our voice.. went on chattering for long time until we felt hungry.. energy level decreased as sleep meter raised.. one by one voices fainted into the dark and we were soon asleep.. After a while, shammu started feeling that the bus hosts bed bugs.. after all those rashes we contemplated that may be those lil creatures were affectionate only to her!! All night she was wide awake searching for them..

Saturday morning we reached Udupi.. ambiance there never needs an explanation.. It kinda overtakes my imaginations. lush green.. variant weather.. small houses.. all looks like a framed picture. I felt as though i am lost.. I gave empty stares at various trees.. sky.. clouds.. water.. This phase of mine is what i call loosing myself to Nature!!

Evening as planned, was beach time! thats the only place where roars makes a soothing effect on you :-) A stroll in the beach with periodic attempts of waves to engulf ur feet and take away atleast the sand is so relaxing and an amazing feeling..

Back in the hotel, we were damn hungry.. anyone who knew about Diana hotel inspired us not to miss cutlets.. so we ordered for cutlets and poori.. the thought of cutlets being famous there made us even more eager to have it.. finally the eternal wait was over, crispy cutlets were on the table.. soumya was the first one to try.. though her expressions changed she managed to say it was ok.. I was lil suspicious but tried out.. oh my god that was the worst one i had ever tasted!!

Next day was very eventful, we went for the wedding.. enjoyed there.. our bride was looking gorgeous.. she felt very happy when we told her that she looked more beautiful than her hubby ;) hehehe.. we were back by 3 to hotel.. after the tiring day we planned to just stay in the hotel and relax...

Scene 1: We were watching Jodha Akbar, shikha came in saying "bharish ho rahi hai"
instantaneous was my question "kaha...? bahar?" ;-) she just gave me a cold look

Scene 2: Switched to Rang de basanti film and some discussion on history sprang up.. soumya tried explaining that she remembers one incident.. "woh park tha na.. aur woh log aise aise(shooting sign) kiye the na!!! kya tha woh?" Any guesses guys????????

yeah she was describing "Jallianwala Bagh massacre" ;-) hehehe...

With so many beautiful memories we left Udupi by 8.45 in the night.. thoughts of getting back to work made us feel miserable but still we were happy that atleast we had a nice and jolly weekend!!

P.S : Even saturday night bed bugs dint leave shammu.. Now you know why the title was awarded!! :D

Some crazy language called "English"

Whenever my mind ponder over this phrase
it always race back to some distant frame

As a child it always bemused
why include a letter when it has to be excused

If honor is said onor but not honor
why bother "h" and dishonor

If psychology is said sychology
why not pathology as athology

If past of write is wrote
why not read is rode

why use the same word for past and present
when you have 26 letters in the event

If superlative of sad is saddest
why not for bad, baddest :-)

This list never tends to end
English, oh how much i fancy friend


P.S: I had scored a zero in test for writing bad, badder, baddest :P

Car driving -- The bizarre moments

If you are guessing its about car learning experience in a driving school you are wrong!!! Its well ahead of all those things...

Today, in the first place, i dont remember what made me decide to go to office in car.. one of my friend even warned me that there is hell lot of traffic.. but i was unfazed.. I told her i would take the shortcut and il be just fine.. never realized what was awaiting me on the road!!!

When i left my place i was so excited.. I drove so smoothly.. not even a jerk.. uh uh.. not the slightest one also.. changed the gear regularly(when ppl saw me driving one advice was sure shot -- Change the gears!!!). I was feeling good.. In background was the song "Its My Life".. what a perfect song.. "It is now or never".. I was humming it all the way before i hit the traffic.. after that i dont exactly remember what song went on in the background i was only concentrating on changing the gears and trying to make sure that i wont bang into someone's car!!

What a welcome it was!!! It seemed as though every Banglorean was on road to welcome me for the new car community. As planned i took the shortcut route till silkboard signal to avoid some traffic.. but fate dint spare me.. As i was taking left turn i could see so many people staring at me as they crossed.. I was miffed and gave back a cold stare.. as i starting moving i could feel some friction from the other side of the car!! I was bloody too close to the footpath.. all those stares made sense then :) the thought of brand new car getting scratched the very first day of driving made me feel miserable (though only for few moments)

I dont know how many people cursed me on road when i couldnt control my car going back.. when it abruptly stopped in the middle of the road.. I was sweating in the car even though AC was on.. when i saw EGL the first thing on my list was to relax.. it was very relieving to get out of car!!

P.S: The very first thing that i did going home was to put 'L' Board :P
