ThE RaiLwAy StAtIoN InCiDeNt

Went for a plant visit today in the afternoon. and left the place in the evening at around 4.30. I actually had no clue as to where I was(cos I never took the trouble of making a note of it when I was taken there). I was jus trying to figure out where on earth I was and then to discovered the means to go home. Finally I jumped to a conclusion of going home by train(a railway station was very close by). Went by walk to the station.(I was really very excited cos this was the first time I was traveling in a domestic plying broad gauge). Little did I know that more surprises were waiting for me when I started out.

As soon as I bought the train ticket, the train came from nowhere and I gladly got into the ladies compartment which halted exactly in front of me. The journey was way too good because the weather was fantastically pleasant today. Just made friends with few of the mallu speaking girls who coincidentally studied the same course as I do.
I had a mixed feeling as I got a seat to sit nearby the window. Looked out at the beautiful sky and enjoyed the cool breeze. Peeped outside the window to see the plastics, paper covers and all junk dumped in the side lanes. That was a bit saddening.

When my station arrived, I was a bit puzzled to find the way OUT. among the crowd stood my 10th standard geography teacher. I was too delighted then jumped on my toes to meet her. Spoke to her for a while and happened to meet another junior of mine (in school) who showed me the way OUT.

Hol(i)yday

This weekend we decided to “stay away from home”. Cos it seemed to me like ages since we went out and spend time together as a family.So this idea sounded inviting(thanks to my dad who broached up this topic!!!). we made up our minds that we would go to the outskirts of Chennai. But then, by the time we finalized our plan we ran out of place to go cos all the resorts we contacted had no vacancy. Then finally after a lot of perplexity we decided to fix up in one(which was out of mere luck that we learnt about the vacancy in that place.) We were thrilled at the last minute progress in the plan. That made us sure of a safe shelter to dwell in.

I got permission to take off that day. We started from my place in the afternoon. It took us an hour and a half to reach our temporary nest. We booked a room there and took a long drive along the east coast road. It was a bit warm and humid but was really enjoyable because of the cool breeze.By evening we were back. In the evening me and my dad strolled in the beach.

the next day dad & myself bathed in the sea. It was really nice cos we hit the beach early in the morning at 6.30. the water was so salty that my eyes started burning when a wave splashed on my face. But that was all too good.

We then went to the pool there. we were at peace there too cos there was none other than me and my folks.

I’ve put up some of de pic taken there……

@ work

Its been a while since I blogged. There are lot many reasons 4 me not posting ( laziness hitting the list!!!)

Anyways I’ve started my internship. I’m going to office everyday like any other trainee, today being the 5th day(I guess…) Its truly a memorable expeience for me, firstly because this is the first encounter for me with the “corporate world”.Secondly because I actually like the way things happen. I was really awestruck to learn how theoretical science and practice applications are made to meet. Thirdly cause I feel so much at home out there. Honestly speaking, I was terrified initially at the thought of getting acquainted with this new place. Ironically it was much smoother and I could fit in with ease. However the entire credit goes to my superiors who have made me feel so. I have made a few friends now.


But the few unpleasant aspects associated with it are the early morning wake up tantrums of mom. Back ache and the fatigue by the end of the day(god, how much I crib!!!!)
There are after all two sides for a coin……..

Person+ality

A couple of days ago i watched the movie Unnale Unnale( tamil movie). I waited a pretty longtime to watch de movie but never got an opportunity to visit the theatre cause some how or the other my pals were tied up with their own work. Finally the right time clicked(my cousin agreed to accompany me, indeed very generously) and was very excited to watch it.

The movie started of well but i guess somehow it isn't my cup of tea. Apparently the movie speaks about nothing other than luv..... Not that i'm against it or anything but i simply expect a lot more sensible attributes in any story.However the music was super duper. But some thing that which strikingly caught my attention was Thanvi's character( she luks cute too). i was told that she's Kajol's sister(not sure though)

I'd love to possess such characteristics in reality. A very light hearted person who takes life at ease.To live for the moment, not worried about the past nor bothered about the future. So sweet and innocent. All put together "a very happy person". no remorse,no guilt,no sorrow,no worries, no cribbing, no vengeance...... wow! how nice it would be to live like that. To fly like a beautiful little bird with no limits in the open sky.......

chennai heat = HELL

The weather is just terrible. and day by day its getting worse.it drives me mad. The sweat just trickles down the body and i start feeling so damp and sticky. I jus haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate this..... Its jus impossible to expect things to change at this point in time but however i'm losing my tolerance and state of balance. I get so irritated and feel like keeping to myself all day.

The post noon times are the worst when the heat settles down and together with humidity takes a ride on you. and during the day times one must be very stone hearted to step out in the scotching heat. As i rode my two wheeler today i simply could not resist but to accelerate faster.. i felt the pricking rays of the sun even as i covered myself with a long dupata. "its just the start" my dad says... oh god! i'd become a roasted chicken by the end of it all.....

I'm just thinking how much this external variable can cause a behavioural change in a human. They say only hunger,thirst and sex would affect a man's senses. but i do feel this external variable is yet another vital element.

Bad day!!!

To add fuel to the previous incident was the yesterday’s one.

I had to meet the homeopathy doc cos I’ve been getting sun burns lately cos of the intense heat and had to treat it. I went to the clinic at 6.40 p.m., the check up time with the doc took about fifteen mins i.e till 6.55 p.m. There is a pharmacy adjacent to the clinic where I had to buy medicines. Unlike allopathic medicines, homeopathy medicines consists of pills and powder which ought to be damped in liquids obtained from plants.

Three youngsters were employed in that pharmacy. I gave the prescription slip and was waiting to get my medicines. There was just one patient prior to me. But by the time these people got done with that patient, it was already 7.20. I started losing my patience and was trying to keep cool. It would’nt have been a matter for me if it had been very crowded,but to get the job done for one patient itself took them so much of time, that pissed me of….

Then finally they were running about up and down to hunt for my medicines. They had to get Calc. Sulphine. But instead that girl took Calc.Fl and was filling my medicine bottle. Being a layman to all these chemical terms I was wondering wat on earth this girl was upto!!!! I was hesitant but I couldn’t tie up my mouth. So I just asked showed her the prescription and asked if what she had and wat was prescribed were same. Only then did she realize that she had been filling in the wrong medicine. That really annoyed me. But that was not it…..

All three of them had some doubt about one of the medicines, so one girl went rushing to the doctor to ask some thing. Later she came out saying SULPHUR. Only then did I realize that they did not even know to read what was actually written in that slip. I went nuts…..

By the time they got me the medicines it was 6.50. Fifty mins to get just four medicines…….
