If you are thinking when did part 2 come out… well it will come out… but in the last post one of my fav bloggers suruchi *hugs and kisses her* ;) asked me to talk about a particular incident so I am writing about it now. This incident happened after the incidents which I wanted to reveal earlier, so now part 3…. Now put your finger on your lips (sexily ;)) and read :).
Life experience #43 : Getting thrown into a river(or was it a stream… anybody know the difference? ;)) …40ft deep and feeling awesome :D
To start with I have to tell you, I was always a kid who was his parents fav and they protected me more than how angry birds protected their eggs :P… it was always school and home, college and home. I dint mingle with frenz much and always used to be home more than outside. And I don’t blame them, my mom loves me a lot and she dint want anything to happen to me, so she always insisted to come back home early.
In all these I lost out on many moments. When my frenz used to call me to someplace suddenly, I was always skeptical. Should I go? Shouldn't i? What would mom think, I was such a momma’s boy! :P, anyways coming back to the issue, I never hung out much with frenz, I wanted to but just dint wanna upset my mom too.
But coming to Bangalore, WOW, as I have said I have done a ton of things, and one among them is being thrown into that river.
Arpit and suruchi get angry and say: ‘Ab story shuru kare gab hi, ya sirf back story bolta rahega?, we know u were kind of a wuss :P and u became bolder after coming to bang, start with the near death experience all ready!!’
Ok suruchi ok :P he he. I can imagine her smile and it looks beautiful, (I donno about arpit, coz I don’t imagine him like that ;). Still his smile is cute too, I’ve heard a couple of girls say , don’t ask who arpit :P, it’s a secret).
So back to the story, Chavan is a magician, I donno how is does it. One moment he is suffering with a 104 degree typhoid fever, next moment he is saying: ‘Pack your bags we are going to Goa’ :P… he is so eccentric and lively and I love that fact about him,this time though it was the trip to a nearby place called Dubare forest :) (its famous for elephants)
(Actual Dubare Images :))
Being in kodagu all my life, I still hadn’t visited a lot of places. So for Dussera he said he is going out with his frenz and asked me to come along. I was being lazy again, but he insisted and next thing I know I am in madikeri (my hometown :D) sleeping in the room chavan and his friend rented. Let me now introduce the 3 very interesting frenz of chavan(and mine too :D)
Chandan (this guy is the definition of cool)
Amit Vikram (He the funnest person I have known, when drunk :P)
Mr silent good hearted person (Actually I forgot his name :P, sorry yaar :P)
So all these guys including me and chavan were in madikeri. Chandan is a guy with multiple pluses. He is good with cracking jokes, can hold onto to his liquor like a rock, and knows to make awesome cocktails too. So that day in the room we all sat down and he started preparing cocktails for everyone. I looked at him in awe as he concocted a potion with… hold your horses… Mango ‘Slice’(yes the juice). Nimbooz :P, Teachers brandy, lil lime and Salt on the edges of the glass ;)
I donno what it’s called, but all the guys who drank it, loved it. What started as just one glass turned to 2, 3, almost 4. (They stopped because the salt ran out :P). I was seeing them enjoy and I really wanted to steal a glass and taste it, just dint, couldn’t,( maybe I will cross that barrier one day too :)). But as I saw them enjoy, the same feeling came as the last time. Happy, content, and free (without being drunk ;)) and I loved it.
Amit is THE guy when it comes to laugh. At one time I asked him ‘dude how do you laugh?’ He started and that was the end of it … ha ha ha my god, it was so funny … Its like a combination of Ravan+The joker of batman and its LOUD :d.. We laughed and laughed and Chavan was like, ‘Oh stop you’re gonna make me throw up :P’. Honestly at that moment I saw and felt what I had been missing all these years. Hanging around frenz is fun, drunk frenz is even more fun :P. I have never had so much fun as I had here IN MY LIFE and it was just getting started.
Night grew, we went out outside where everyone was enjoying the festival of dusshera by dancing in front of the temple idols. These guys danced like crazy, I wanted to join in but had the camera in my hand, so I went my back to the room and till I dumped and came back, I saw everyone was exhausted. Still it dint dampen our spirit to roam around in the night.
Actually the thing is, in Madikeri the night is awesome on Dusshera, because the whole city is lighted up and devotees build huge creations of god and demons to tell the story through mock models, which are huge, usually taking up almost 3 to 4 tractors. There are 10 temples who make these models and prizes are distributed for best 3, people finish up celebrating dussera in Mysore and leave to Madikeri for the night, it’s so popular.
We too wanted to see what each temple had done, but Amit vikram was so exhausted and dizzy from the dancing, that we saw him puking at the side of the road … and it was funny. The way he was swaying from side to side, the way he almost got his butt beaten by a cop, while he was sitting on the road, and even after puking multiple times was full of energy to roam the whole city :P.
It was FUN, just being there, it was so fun. Chavan looked at his condition and said ‘Lets go back we are in no position to roam the city with this heavy head feeling, and we’d probably get our asses whooped with Mr crazy Amit here acting as Kistu Mukherjee every 2 mins’. So we saw the intelligence in his decision and went back and crashed on our beds.
To be continued…
(I know you all are boo hoo, where is the real story you cunning fox :P… but the post has grown long, I’ll post the rest soon, till then I hope you had fun reading it. I will post soon promise, see I promised and came back right? ;), so I will be back soon :))
Till then. Take care. I love you all. Happy Diwali BTW :)
Love to each and every one of my reader, I love you all, hope you guys have a grand diwali, be safe and have tons of fun ok :). Love you
Somewhere in a far off village in India, where the power comes once a week and internet connection only lasts for 10-15 minutes. There are 2 girls speaking to each other about a unique phenomenon.
Girl 1: (Whispering) I heard he is coming back.
Girl 2: Are you sure?. I thought it was a myth. He has been silent for so many months I highly doubt that he is even alive!
Girl 1: He always comes back from the dead don’t you know?!... He is the only reason I even have an internet connection in this god forsaken village. His blog posts are like the breath of fresh air. It livens me up from inside. They are… my way of life…
Girl 2: (Getting jealous): Yeah it is, but he is my way of life too, his writings, makes me laugh so much. I sometimes fantasize about him when I am with my boyfriend.. God.. His writings are so cool and amazing… I wonder how he is in person!!
Girl 1: I hear he is amazing, so hot, and handsome. The only sad part is he has been away for so long that I miss him so much, SO MUCH…..(breaks down in tears)
Girl 2: Don’t cry, he will be back… for the love of all his readers (secretly points towards self). He has to be back…
For your reference EVIL M is my EVIL MIND(EVIL M:Hell Yeah :P)
The sound of farting come from a far of background, as the laziest person in earth gets up from his sleep. BRRRRRRRRR..
EVIL M: (Are taliyaan to maro… Evil M is back :P) What the F is this Thousif, every morning? Every morning… sheesh

Me: hmph you are rgt…. I should write, and I will write a blog post rgt now…
EVIL M: !!#!%&&*$*$*%#&% wait!! Did I just praise him? That Ass****.
Hey guys hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. (Dodges shoes thrown by, Arpit, Arpitha, Charu, Suruchi, Akki, and some other loyal followers) arey, marte kyun ho yaar!!! Aa gaya na!!
Arpit: (In blind Rage) Haramzade!!!, ab aaya hai ab??…2 mahino ke baad!!

Arpit: Gussa na hun to kya karoon, kahaan hai meri gifts, kahaan hai mere awards? Is saal ke RAZA awards ko kya huwa?
Me: Wo funding may thoda problem ho gaya yaar, aur u know… Acidity problem!!!
Arpit: !#!$%#@^!^^%&
EVIL M: @#%$!#@%!#^!^
Thousif’s mother comes from the kitchen..
Mom: “Ya mere Allah, THOUSIF!!!, how much more will you swear in this beautiful house of mine, and make it dirty than a filthy pig sty.. What is wrong with you and that stupid friend of your’s….”
Arpit runs outs my house like his ass is on fire… there’s even some smoke like thing left behind… *maybe he farted*
ANYYYYYYYYYYHOOOOOOOOOOO… getting back to the issue… I am back yes I am, so let me tell you what I have been upto :)
I am now a trainee copywriter at Rediffsuion-Wunderman… and the job is amazing here…
First time I am all on my own in life, from making food to cleaning toilets and it has never been so eventful before, so many experiences. SO MANY and my god, it’s barely been a month… I thought I will feel alone in this lonely city, where everyone just runs after money and fame. I thought it dint have a soul at all, people would be self-centered. But I got a BIG sucker punch to my stomach.. This city is actually beautiful. It has its own personality, and it’s amazing.
Let me tell you how, first week out, I went to see Transformers 3 with some frenz of chavan(my roommate) the film was amazing (my first 3D film :D) and then we went to a pub.. I dint drink though!!
Evil M: Daddy’s lil girl he is toh, doesn’t drink, doesn’t smoke, I donno why he even lives his life…
ME: I live for the beauty of life ok, life is not all about boozing and smoking!!!
Mom : THOUSIF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT DID I SAY ABT THE LANGUAGE???!!!
EVIL M: Muhuhahahahaha
Evil to evil he rahega… anyways I went with them to the pub…
EVIL M: and they raped him…. Ha ha ha
ME: WTFF (i.e. what the f**ing F), that’s not what happened….
EVIL M: (sings in a 1950’s tune) Ram teri ganga maili ho gayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Ho gayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :P
ME: oh my god, you are a nightmare… F*** U…
EvilM: (eerie static sound…..)
Thank god he is silent, so anyway we went to the pub, the guys ordered drinks, and when I said no to free booze…
Arpit: (jumps up from his bed) FREE BOOZE!!! OH MY GOD!!! Did someone say free booze… kahaan, where, tell me now!!!
ME: Arpit ji calm down… it’s here in Bangalore, and it wasn’t all free..
Arpit: (Inflates down like a sad balloon. purrrrrrrrrrrrrr :P)
So I said I don’t drink, and they respected me for it, they never forced even for second, except saying it tastes good, and making me feel like I was missing something good, at some points I wanted to try, but I have made a promise to someone, that I will not take any drugs of any sorts. So I wanted to keep that promise :). Not that I have drug abuse problems :P. just promised :)
EVIL M: that’s what all the drug abusers say :P
(Gives a stinky eye to EVIL M) But what followed in this session was, I felt the guys open up and talk about so many things.. The party which started with a PG rating soared onto XXX :P and what not… I have never laughed so much, I was so happy to be around… The feeling was so amazing, and I wasn’t even drunk :P
They kept asking me, am I enjoying myself?, you are not feeling bored? And were so caring, I loved the attention and at the same time saw them enjoying themselves, it was one of the best things I have ever been a part off…
I remember a joke from the night..
Chavan: how will you go back home man? What if the policeman catches you and asks you to walkin a straight line?
Sunil(one of the frenz): I’ll walk… I am good at walking on straight lines…(he sounded so drunk)
Chavan: (looking at others) This guys is so drunk, he will yell at the policeman saying… “Damn you man, first draw a straight line and then tell me to walk on it, drawing a crooked line and asking me to walk straight…what the hell is wrong with you, are you drunk?” :P
To top it off we went for a walk at 1 in the night and sat in front of Croma electronic store (no I am not getting paid to say that :P) and I just took a look at the city.. The guys were still laughing remembering some instances and I laughed with them.. I felt like I was always a part of their lives, and sitting there I felt like I am part of the city too… That day was amazing… it will always be in my memory, that when you are with Frenz nothing matters, and they became my frenz so quickly… In just a matter of hours I felt this instant connection with all four of them, I was so amazed, I loved it… it was so simple yet so very special, that just talking for a couple of hours could lead to something that is sooooo good. It made me see Bangalore, its culture, its people in a whole new way, and I loved it.
We are meeting again this weekend, and going to another pub, hope it is the same as last time, I know it will be :).
Well that just me giving an update… I have many more stories for you guys….
EVIL M: … from getting molested, to how he was ruthlessly beaten up with a slipper by a monkey… to letting out a loud fart in a very important business meeting… it’ll all come… don’t worry…
Well as EVIL M said… there are some things worth sharing… till then :) I love you all… have a very beautiful day ahead :)…..take care I have missed you all.. yes including those 2 girls :)… :).
P.S: A very special thank you for these people who would have kicked my ass, if I hadn’t wrote again and made me write these… Arpitha, Arpit, Suruchi, Anwesa, Viddhi, Remya, Saru(thank you for a very sweet email (*points fingers at other instructing a ‘see and learn gesture’:P*) and a couple other who’s names I forgot :P…. you guys are very special in my life… Thank you. Muaaaaaaaah (Dodges slippers thrown by you-know who ;)) bye guys :) :) love you….
“kitna bharosa kiya tha maine tujhpe….. kitna bharosa…”
Dishoom dishoom… kick kick….
Washes away tears from his eyes…
“Ah, thousif…. Kyun kyun dhoka diya mujhe tune…I told you to write a blog post 2 weeks ago… why dint you?!!”
Dishoom dishoom…
Dishoom dishoom….. thousif’s face has turned to pulp… still slowly looks at arpit for some mercy…
Arpit looks at him with venomous eyes… “Well that’s what happens when someone breaks a promise made to me, I break their face” growls arpit….
.
ARPIT RASTOGI
(A shiver runs down the spine of RAJNIKANT as he reads this blog and imagines the growl of arpit)
………..
Well arpit my part of the deal is done, I told u I’d get you a macho entry in the blog next time… well here it is :P
P.S: 16000026274828, that’s my account number 50000 rupees bhijwadena… oye macho entry ke… thank you ki koi zarurat nahi hai pagle… dost hu tera :P
Well, looking at me you’d be thinking, ‘OH MY GOD!!! Thousif???!!! I thought you were dead, thank god you’r alive’
(a cricket screeches in the corner of the room… krrrick krrrick :P)
Ok not that reaction….
Maybe this then….
‘oh, thousif… mr annoyance is back… yayyyyyyy’
Well I guess I deserve the sarcasm (and the compliments… if any :P) because I was gone for so long…
….suddenly 9 girls start approaching slowly from every direction imaginable with clenched fists towards thousif….
Remya, suruchi, anwesa, tulika, choco, akanksha, charu, apritha, viddhi start running to him and surround him…
One is holding his collar, one is holding his arms, 2 have stepped their legs on his… n throw him to the ground…
Suruchi: ‘kahaan tha kaminey… KAHAAN?... apne blog par compliments le leta hai aur hamey… HAMEY…., itni beautiful, talented and awesome writers ke blog nahi padta… kya!! kya..samajte kya ho apne aap ko tum…’
Arpitha is concerned in the back, while viddhi is ROFL on the floor looking at the situation…
Suddenly lights out, and there r 5 kicks to different places…
‘MUMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY’ screams thousif
‘Maro kaminey ko maro’ screams arpit from the back somewhere hiding behind a pillar….
Lights come back…. Everybody is laughing except thousif…. He looks scared… SHITSCARED…
Viddhi: “see…this is what happens when you become selfish and lazy and.. and god knows what and don’t visit our blogs….”
Slowly the girls release him…
“Sorry….” he mutters… barely.
Remya: that’s what happens man… when you don’t read the blogs, of 11 awesome bloggers… you miss out on all the creativity and fun… and get kicked in the… you know where….”
Giggles go all around….
“I am sorry….. I’ll never do anything like that ever again” he says sadly…
Charu, arpitha and akanksha say in unison: “Its ok, we’r all frenz, things happen don’t sweat it” they give a big smile…and everyone hugs thousif…
Hugging everyone he slowly winks with a wicked smile to arpit and vyas who are silently watching the whole spectacle…. Vyas faints…. Arpit is so shocked, that lets not say what he did next…
P.S: Cried miserably and wet his pants :P
OK.Enough.
That’s enough fun for today, arpit bhai sorry, I just wanted to make you smile so I had to bust your… u know what :p… u really are likebhai to me yaar… if it wasn’t for you, this post wouldn’t have happened… :)…. And there’s also a very special person who is responsible for this post… I hope you remember about this friend I had mentioned earlier…. (like half a year ago :P) Shruti(pihu)… well, she encouraged me to write too… so this post is dedicated to the 2 very special persons in my life…
1.Arpit: for his constant gaaliyan… if it wasn’t for that, I would have never written this post..
…..And by the way the dishoom dishoom punches at the start were his galiyaan :P…
2.Shruti: For being everything she is, special, beautiful, supportive, understanding and awesome. Always and every time :). Love you both…
Ok enough thank you’s too, the main reason I started back again is because I missed every one of you. Yes you, all the heroines in the story :), a big shout out to you guys and all the guys, (who apparently are very less :P)… arpit and vyaz you guys are like the coolest guys I ever knew :). I missed you guys so much, only because college was hectic could I not attend your blogs.
Ok who am I lying… I was lazy as hell sorry guys… I am so so sorry, I really will try to attend your blog regularly from now on.
So this is just a small lil post to say I am back and will be making u smile with my idiotic posts and also loving each and every post you guys write… by showering it with the true love it truly deserves… I love all you guys who has made my life so beautiful each time with your beautiful comments… especially suruchi… her comments.. are like rain in a desert :). Missed you yummy mummy;) he he.

I’ll visit all your blogs today, because I don’t wanna be kicked again…. You know where :P
I have a special surprise for you guys, it’ll be up soon maybe within couple more days, so come back again, and trust me…. You’ll be surprised :)
And for anyone reading this blog and not finding his name here… well you will have a special mention and a gift in the next post…(virtual ok, don’t expect anything remotely real :P) so comment away…

I haven't felt this good since 1998, the day when I fell on my head and suffered temporary memory loss :P... feels so good... so the topic I was talking about is...
*Glorious music playing* *Huge applause* *huge applause again* *again... ;)*
The day when I flew a plane(a real one ;))
It was a dark Sunday .....or Saturday morning in November (Yes I am bad with dates and days, and names... and clothes, socks, shoes, staying clean... and something else... anyway)
So it was someday and some date in November. My classmate and very dear friend Suguna Saravanan is married to Wing Commander N Saravanan.
pick up your jaws already, yeah I know the most cool people there ever are in mysore :P get over it :P he he
So she called me one night and said,
“There are some NCC students who are here in Mysore for a camp and my husband is accompanying them and will be in charge of a very special assignment, Teaching how to fly a plane” I was listening as she said, how its an awesome experience for the students where they can fly the plane accompanied by Wing Commander N Saravanan as the main pilot where the student is the co pilot, and at times they are given full control of the plane, but it was what she said in the end was the thing that took the breath out of my chest, when she asked me
“Would you like to try flying a plane?”
Me and EVIL M where like holy *beep* ..*beep* *beep* *beep* *beep pa beep beep*
in all the beeping I said Yes..
She said its just a joy ride but if I liked it, I could go to a competition and win a cup and all, if I had the talent and brains, EVIL M smirked at me at the point when she said brains, I gave him a dirty look.
So she told me that her husband would pick me up at 5.30 AM on a Sunday or Saturday morning from a place we decided.
I sat in my bed thinking just a day before, to reach the place at 5.30, i'd have to get up at 4 at least, wash my face in the ice cold water, make my hair look able, and go with my brother in the dead cold on a bike to the meeting place. And pee too, EVIL M made me remember, yeah that too.... I mentally made a checklist.
So thinking all this I went to my brother to solve the first thing of this puzzle and told him about my plan. He said sure, I'll take you no problem, I was so happy, because this brother of mine loves his sleep and he telling me, he'd take me, I felt so great I wanted to kiss him then and there, But EVIL M held me back saying, 'Dude, bhabi will get jealous, and surprised, and shocked and even a little suspicious....' So I controlled my emotions.;)
I got up at 4, pee'd, got ready, brushed before that :P, made my hair awesome and went to call my brother, he got up with sleepy red eyes(They just had a baby, now you know why I wanted to kiss him ;)) he pulled on a sweater onto himself and we went.
My god it was cold, it was like I was in Antarctica or something, fingers cold, face cold, Ass like stone, whoever think what may, I hugged my brother tighter, he got a lil uneasy, but dint say anything. Somehow with all the cold wind, the shivering, me howling in between(Twilight fever don't ask :P) we reached the place.
It was a road junction, there was no one except a girl with her mother, I went and asked is this the pick up place for the flight training, she said yes and we waited and exactly at 5.29 (That day I got to know about punctuality :)) there it was... a green or a yellow jeep(yeah i'm bad with colors too :P). I and the girl got in with another girl coming just before we left, or was she already inside, I don't remember, it was long time ago yaar, understand :P he he. So anyways we got in.
Wing Commander N Saravanan introduced himself and that day I got to know a little about introductions too, strong, sturdy and in control, I squeakily said hi,(It was because of the cold ok :P) and we started talking, he said how he handles camp in between his army duties and he said how good the experience can be. He then talked about the aspect of me in the competition. He said I had to study, trigonometry, calculus and all other maths stuff if I had to continue after today.
I failed in all those when I was studying my PUC, yes those exact subjects, how can one let kids read that subject, its so horrible and my test scores were like alien readings every time. Ask my dad he'll tell you...
but there were kids studying PUC in the jeep so I couldn't exactly blurt out the truth I said. “I have studied them in my PUC so if I brush up on them maybe I can compete” EVIL M was like a maniac laughing away saying 'I want front row tickets to see that, oh cross that, I will have them anyway because i'm in your brain' We talked a lil more and reached the place.
6.02 on the clock an we were at the Mysore airport, we had a quick tea and the officers residing there brought out the plane. A Micro lite something (i donno the exact number)
I took a look at it and it seemed like a toy plane, small engine with tarpeline like wings and tail fin, and I was like... i'll fly this plane into another oblivion and get it back.
'Say that while you are in the air, Johnny Bravo' said EVIL M
The wing commander got in with another joy rider who had come with us, vivek, vishwas, or something. (lets call him vicky)
After a few seconds. They started the engine.
OH.MY.GOD. The sound was deafening, unreal. The engine which looked so small earlier roared like an angry lion, I donno the HP and all, but the sound,wow it was the most powerful thing i'd ever heard, EVER. They took the plane and went riding it like a bike to the airport landing strip. I and the other students went inside the Plane shelter and waited, and after some time I saw the plane was air bound and circling above us, I looked at the plane and I was like, i'd be flying that that in a few minutes, I was excited and a little scared and..
EVIL M:... pee'd in my pants.
Yeah, I mean no, I was just amazed, utterly amazed to look at the plane and see it fly. After some time the officers said to get on the jeep where we could go to the landing strip everybody got it and we reached the landing strip, a few minutes later the plane after circling another time above us landed.
I looked at vicky's face, it was white as a zombie. The officers said i'm next, As I walked to the plane I saw vicky walking towards me as we met in the middle he looked at me, I saw his eyes, deep and black, and..
EVIL M:.. fell in love.... :P
no it wasn't like I was looking for love in his eyes or something, his eyes were speaking.. something like this 'Holy *beep* dude, that was awesome, but i'm too cold to speak'
I looked at the time it was 6.30, the sun was coming up brightly as I took my first(awkward) steps into the plane. It was a 2 seater, The captain N saravanan told me to put on my headphones, they were huge, I slipped them on and then he guided me about the controls I practiced it for 5 minutes while I got comfortable, he then slowly took the plane air bound.
I was in the air holding the controls, but he(the captain) was maneuvering it, I was just looking at the view, oh my god, its completely different, people who have traveled in plane(With window side seats ;)) will know what i'm talking about, but this was completely different because I was directly in control. Not technically but still I had the controls ok. So it is being in control
EVIL M: Dummy controlled.. :P
Yeah yeah whatever, but I was in control, I just kept enjoying it as we finished half a round when he said, “i'll give you the controls now, just the handle you try maneuvering it”
Holy *beep* the moment I expected had come. The engine roaring in front of me, and me on the controls, I turned a lil to the left I saw the plane going to the left. It was like my whole body was in a drum full of adrenaline. The cold air, the excitement. Whew. It was exhilarating. Pure thrill pure pure thrill, now I know why pilots love their job.
I then turned a lil to the right, while the plane nosed down, the captain said to pull it a lil up and I did the same, the plane rising, and I steadied it up.
As I was coming towards the landing strip he advised me on how to land it, but I got confused and came down a lil soon, so he took it up again, and I controlled the whole next round, this time too, the view, the thrill, the excitement exactly the same. I felt something else at that moment like no one could catch me and I could do anything. I dint feel the cold air, I dint feel any fear, it felt like I was experiencing freedom in a whole new meaning and manner. I got so jealous of the birds flying beside me that morning, I thought blessed are these birds who get to experience it everyday, and mentally thanked god for showing me this day.
I screwed up the landing controls again so the captain landed it for me, I controlled it, but he applied the brakes and made it land safely :P
The captain asked me, “Do you wanna participate into the competitions?, because if you do you would have to put in a lot of work, morning 6 to evening till you sleep, you have to be very dedicated, because in the competitions they'll be no one if you go wrong, maths is what will save you, so you have to work very much on it”
I really wanted to say yes, I really would have gone to tuitions and stuff and studied, but with my course study it would have been just too hectic, so said “I cannot, with my course work, with my lab journals I just cannot”,
He said “Its Ok, I understand, we can do this another time when i'm free, just the joy ride”
I got out and I had a big smile on my face, I was walking out when vicky asked me 'how was the cold above?'
'I said I dint feel it, I just felt awesome'
He said 'I salute you dude, I do' and smiled.
Later I saw the other students boarding the plane and controlling from the initial point, the start, the take off, landing, everything done by themselves and these were kids who were studying just 12th, I felt so bad, not because those students could ride the plane, but being so young they had experienced what I hadn't. I remembered my school teacher's words when she asked us to join the NCC, and we being the punk and naive boys we were, thought NCC is not 'fun' enough. How I regret it now. But nonetheless I was happy, so happy, it was like a experience of a lifetime. It took a lot of time sinking in. I called Suguna and thanked her for the wonderful opportunity she gave me. If it wasn't for her I wouldn't even get near to touch a plane, let alone fly it. I cannot thank her enough.
So there it is, the experience of a lifetime. I'll tell you, flying a airplane big or small is a experience like none other, none other at all. It is just something else, it's like you are not bound to anything, where you belong to just yourself.
Being the pilot is tiring but I think its the best job there is, because you get to love what you do, and experience freedom in its truest sense, given the change to re-live my life, I would really opt to being a pilot,ace in my maths test before that :P. but nonetheless learning maths is so worth for being a pilot. Its a wonderful wonderful feeling flying a plane, I tell you that :)
So thats me.. I wish you had a nice time reading about it. :) because I had a great time writing it.... so anyways its already late. I hope you have many things to attend to,
EVIL M: passing out after drinking too much being one of the things :P
M!!! anyway.. I wish you a great year ahead, and may you have experiences like none you had last year, let them be completely new and completely awesome. Not like like being stuck in a toilet without toilet paper, or kissing your girlfriend and getting to know its actually her newly married sister-in-law. No those experiences are horrible, the aftermath being the worst of it and not just by the hands of your girlfriend, there are other 'hands' involved to... I just wish you an awesome year ahead...

I met jasmine online 4 years back through orkut and we have been best frenz ever since and today is her b'day.. yay.. i'm so happy :)
It was jasmine who filled me up with confidence which i dint have and gave me a reason to live life... she has been a part of me all the time from i met her... she has been there when i creid, weeped, got kicked in the balls, when i fell in love with a girl, when i fell out of it, and rgt now when i chasing another ;)
Jasmine is the mrng sun... no matter how dark the ngt i can expect her always to come back :)... ok that wasn't original.. so i'll explain her in my own unique way...
Debaraty majumdar(i always miss spell her name, and i have a difficulty in pronouncing it ;) always :P)... or jasmine as i call her... made me what i am today... i was nerdy geek(even more) and shy as a new born calf when i met her(online ;)) but she showed me how the world is, how beautiful it can be... and how immense are the possibilities in which i can achieve my dreams :)
She has been my rain, my clouds, my sun, my sky, my earth, but most important my best friend :).... there is a part of me which remembers her everyday(even though i dont msg or call for like, months :P, because both of us are stingy :P)
But jasmine is one of my best gal pals :)... its because of her i learned how to talk to girls, how to impress them... how to become a man from the boy i really was... and thats just the one thing...there are so many more things that i have learned from her :)
Jasmine is the one i care about... everyday... even though she's far from me. e Every time i feel sad because of something i remember her... every moment i'm happy i wanna share it with her... and i'm so so glad that its her b'day today and even greater news that she landed a government job... in SBI y'day, which she was yearning for so long :)... i think god has his own way of giving us presents ... and i'm glad she is happy :)
