>Finally after six months of constant pestering, which includes phone calls, emailz, and kalaichifying ashwini had finally agreed to treat us for her bday. Itz really special in the sense that this is the first time a gal has accepted to treat five hungry pigs, that too in the middle of our semesters. Guess venkyism is finally taking effect on ashwini , the so called 'temperamental volcano' has for the first time become a really cool damsel .....
When i told aravind that she finally accepted to treat us, aravind didnt believe us. He thought that i was pulling his leg and told me to get lost. Srikanth was the usual, i used the usual stunt of calling him just half an hour before the treat and he told in his usual banzai yet proactive voice that he was going to drop his dad in the airport and will be late to the treat ,but bozo as usual was the first to arrive. Then i came in on time ,aravind and surrendra next, BUT WHERE IS ASHWINI ? the otherz were waiting in front of barista while i was asked to do the honourz of escorting our sponsor from planet yum ....i was in and out four timez and just when the people dining inside started thinking that i was in to hav a free sip of water, and when i started cursing the fairer sex for always being late, the ford ikon arrived and the gal got out .....
Ashwini and i walked all the way till barista when aravind had this brilliant idea of trying out the new CCD in b nagar.....so one more km's walk and we were in cafe coffee day ......we then chose the most snug corner table in the so called 'den' of CCD, what we did not know was tht it was also supposed to hav been the smoker's paradise, things were really fuming, both in the other guy's hands as well as in ashwini's head . Aravind was the luckiest as usual with the best view of 'ahem' can we call naturez beautys?
Those were kids out there, doing their 12th i guess, and man all of them had a cigg in their hand. oh, generation x has gone crazy .oops, i forgot that i belong to the generation too. Anyway after having something that vaguely resembled coffee,and after tiping the waiter who suggested that drink, and after ashwini's innocent smile that made me a fool by sharing the bill with her, we left.
We were at the height of 'vetti' talks in the beach when suddenly the devil inside me woke up, i heard punit was in town, So why not invite him to the beach , the beach goers would hav really been happy to see some real fireworks, you kno. But alas , My surprise blast turned a failure when i learnt from punits mom over the phone that Mr. Handsome had already left back for trichi.
Suddenly someone realsied that it was 8'o clock ashwini ran for her car, srikanth said 'hmmm.......got to go' and fled, aravind realized that he had to go get back his bike from service and surrendra left with him. Two minutes hence everyone but me cleared the spot and there was not a single trace left behind to remind the world that a shabby reunion took place. i was left back sitting alone. My mind was in total chaos. I took a look at the sea.......saw the waves, suddenly a smile crept into my face, i saw perfection in chaos ....the people are gone,but the memories remain. i walked back home......i walked along with the time .....i walked along with 'change'....Anywayz that was how i spent my time tonight .......
P.S
i kno this might not hav sounded as interesting as my prev post ,but i cant help it, these are the kinda of posts that come from a person who experiences nostalgia, ambivalence, and who is just about to fall asleep after typing these last words......
