The lift dat was...

Hey frnds.... really sorry i've been away so long...
a lot has happened wit me ovr d past few months...
d 1st incident dat comes to my mind is dat of a trip in which v travelled in every mode of road transport :D
Yes, dats rite.. N in a single day.
firstly, v left our campus n had just strtd on d highway whn a very kind elderly fellow allowed us a lift on d nearest bus-stop(which, btw, is 7 kms far!!)...
V exchanged the usual pleasantries... d best part was whn he asked us for tips to educate his daughter in engineering ;)
aftr dat, v had a long bus ride to panjim which nearly drove us crazy... party over, v left panjim around 9pm n boarded d wrong bus which took us to vasco n left us to rot on d road... v strtd our usual road dance n monkey tactics to avail a lift but strabgely, nobody seemd interestd dis time.... v abused d passing cars, smoked(not every1, mind u!!), peeped into d roadside houses, waved rude gestures at d balcony mongers and disgraced our college name in every way possible :D
finally, a truck stopped n v climber aboard... it had no room for d five of us, bt v climbd in anyways...
d driver, a fellow called sonu, sang songs n cracked lots of jokes... it made us think, help always comes from unexpected places in a most extraordinary manner... had v been 10 mins. more late, our parents wud've been called n told abt how spoilt their sons r :P
anyways, dats all abt our trip...
I'll share more wit u in d coming posts, 'coz rite now my exams r on n i cant risk getting any lower marks..

Invincible truth!!

As a young lad, once Subroto Roy Sahara was yelling at the washer-man for ruining a pair of his favourite jeans. His father, late Sudhir Chandra Roy, overheard him and came over. After listening to his son, he told his son to apologise to the washer-man... Later, his father explained to him the reason behind it. He said,"You only have a right to criticise somebody when you have the ability to do the very same work better than them. Only then can you question their shortcomings! And since you are no good when it comes to washing your laundry, you had no right to yell at the washer-man that way."

godlyk Gokarna..

Its time to leave for Gokarna, bags packed and all... We reach the railway station and scoot about here and there, wondering where our train is halting and why isnt the announcement being made??!! Upon enquiry, it turns out that that particular train isnt gonna show up and that we have been fooled, once more, by the Indian Railways. Heads down, red-faced, we finally decide on going by bus, a full 5-hours journey through the foothills of Goa and Kanataka. Luckily, we all got seats at the back..
