Liddle Liddle Things

Sometimes even small things bring in great joy. It may not last the entire day but you know it makes your day. Getting soaked in this tiny tiny pool of happiness can even blow away the engulfed melancholy.

It should be totally out of blue you know not like counting your seconds to let it happen. Ya ya you know everything. What am I taking. Giving some run-of-the mill, mundane enlightenment lessons.

Two days back while I was searching for something I found money in one of my old jeans.Gee!! Now don't ask me how much was it.  It may not be big but was enough to buy some happiness to me.

The next day I tried to couple it with some other complimentary thing. Tried to call a old chum of mine and talk a blue streak. Fortunately or unfortunately I am not sure. But couldn't.  I miss my long lonely drives too..

FlashbacK

I don't remember whether this was in 4th standard or 5th standard but what I do remember is lot of other stuff..

The interval bell rung and I rushed to the ground( 1st to reach the ground,wah.. tapping myself) to play this game where we draw a big circle( its really big) and play with a stick with which you are suppose to hit the feet of other people who are then considered to be out. So this pepped up yours truly went to the ground running like a sprinter and was searching for the wand at the corner of the ground.

Suddenly my PT teacher( accompanied by some other teacher I don't remember) whistled ( with her little device) and called me towards her. Already half dead I reached her. 

Her : What were you doing there.?

I      : Nothing Miss. Playing.

Her : "See Madam these children are so lazy to even go to rest rooms."

Me  : (in my mind)Erm...She thinks I am taking a leak..?

The other teacher: He is lying Madam.See his pants. They are wet( which was in fact true. Got scared after seeing her.)

Then she used her trademark ear twisting and twisted it like any other Natraj eraser and let it go after my eyes pleaded guilty( I was not).

I didn't forget you Ms. Showri. Neither did I forget your face. Also you were my Moral Science teacher who gave a farewell speech saying" I don't punish you without your mistake. I hope you agree with me children".Gerrrr..Like my foot...

Beach Walker

I have just noticed I forgot posting one important event. Oh damn how could I forget this.. Isnt it such an important event to post? Yes indeed. Considering the fact that I posted even some crap events. Not that my posts are crappy ok.. Dare to call that….This is the window through which my eccentric mood-swings flows.

From when did 'Johnnie Walker' started walking and 'Old Monk' started talking..Gee!!!Yeah its on the auspicious India’s republic day on the Indian ocean shores.

People who know me will not buy this and people who doesn’t know me will think why did it take so long considering the fact that I was a cageless bird which can reach its wings to the farthest pole.

I felt rambunctious,no qualms. Life is like Saturday night lets do balle balle..:)

A jaunt to Malacca

Finally after five months and with lots of yes-no-yes kind of thoughts the drought is over. Got a break from my not so monotonous schedule. I definitely would have liked to take a break but part of me was holding me back and telling me not to fall for it. Two things added fuel to the fire.

1.      It will a short trip.

2.    I don’t want a country stamp on my passport which I already have.

But eventually the ‘Do’ won the battle over the 'don’t' for obvious reasons and wasn’t I happy with the result….? Yeah a jaunt with friends will always be fun-filled.

If you had asked me about Malacca I would have been more blank than a freshly scrubbed slate. Only thing I had known was it’s a tourist hot spot and was a European colony. So I wasn’t expecting too much from the trip. And it turned out to be far from good and good from far (at least the places what I had seen)

The best part of the trip was food. Yet again sea food delighted my taste buds. God, I started loving sea food. I had become more carnivorous this time by having fish, prawns, crab, squid, shark (had shark fin soup), Chinese & Malay delicacies.

The positive part- After a long time saw the real rustic places and of course, not to forget the food

The negative part- My journey time outlasted my stay time at Malacca.
