Living Life

Hmmm.... the weekend has been rather amazing... had my Visa appointment yesterday, so obviously bunked the only "stimulating" lecture and went to cal. Arpit and Parang also had their appointments, so went along. We reached cal around 6:45 and were really hungry.... "arre food court chalte hain yaar, vahan kha bhi lenge aur nikal bhi", said Arpit. Bas aur kya chahiye tha, pahuch gaye. As I enetred I saw a bandi there. Simple looks average bandi. She was looking at the gaint menu hung on the wall, wondering what to order. Something struck... "arre yaar yeh kya order karegi...... dekhne se to simple shimple lag rahi hain.. dekhte hain isse kya pasand hain... ", but then " chod na yaar bhook lagi hain order karte hain".... I ordered Aalo puri... subah subah nothing is better off atleast for me.... as I turned around I saw badau... he was there with some one, I went over, met him, thank god he recognized me, or else pretended well. Aneways as I was coming back to the counter to collect my order I saw that bandi walking over to the eating place with a plate of aalo puri.... :D

For the next 1/2 an hour or so I totally enjoyed the edacious time. I was being nagged by Arpit.."abe jaldi kar mote, humara appointment hai 8:15 baje".... finally we went out.... thisis the part I really hate.... I hate Cal, the taxis, the howrah bridge, the heat and the people too... aneways took a cab for embassy. Withinn 10 mins of reaching there Arpit and parang were called in and I was left there with nothing to do for the next 90 mins. These are the times when a Ipod can really come to ur rescue.... not to mention the insalubrious 3 hr train journey... aneways there was a tree nearby so went over and sat. Now I have this nack of observing people a lot and passing time such way is never a problem to me. There was a family of 3 son... about 20-25, mom and Dad. The mom came and sat next to me as that was the only place available. They were talking and was overhearing... or lets say desperately trying to listen. It was so that the couple were going to US. Aneways what was important was the proof of the fact that people with suranme jhunjhunwala exist. Yes , when the aunty besides me was verifying her documents, I happened to see her name and it ended with jhunjhunwala... before this I thought "abe aise naam to movies main hi hote hain".... aneways there were other people... mostly women... everywhere I go the male to female ratio is not more than 9:1, chad na yaar. One thing to note was that everybody was wearing the best they had... jaise visa lene nahin ghar ki shaadi main aaye hain.. sab ek dum chamak rahe thhe... and then I saw a lady coming back from the visa office, the old guy sitting besides me leaped on seeing her... might have been her dad or so... he asked her how it went and the smile on her face reminded me of my days when I used to give those engineering exams, every time I came home and mom I asked me how it went, I gave the same smile and nodded to indicate that it went well..... I have never said ki mummy exam bahut accha hua hain.. I was in habit of saying "theek hua mummy", so as not to raise any expectations... but then ur mom knows you from in and out and can figurre out stuff before you even speak.

Finally I was called in and as I went in there were 2 things: the doors were as heavy as hell... I was realized that doors should be bullet proof.... lead might be used... that preodic table flashed back .... chad na yaar and secondly it was like prison... i was checked throughly and I had to enter through stel bar door... Inside the AC's were blowing in full blast... haaa relief.... I went over and stood in the queue... cursing tinni " vo to bola tha , abe visa vali bandi kya hot hain yaar", "vo bandi to normal thi...... kya yaar ab kaise katega time".... but then the sight of people who had been waiting with me outside and entered early made the situation somewhat comfortable.... aneways the procedures ended by 10:45 and by 11 we were out, now officially allowed to "study" in US.

The Heat again... "abe yaar cal is f%^&ing hot". Parang had some work, went there and then got our international student cards made..... the receptionist there was a perfect bengali... tall hard, big eyes... ahhh I hate it. Finally we decided to maro peace in pizza hut and took a cab. Along the way I saw lot of banners showing rani mukherjee in begali sarees, her eyes were looking gaint, as if they were going to pop out... damm I hate rani.

Finally reached pizza hut.... ac ... wow relief.... placed the orders and started looking around... one of the tables had 3 bandis but they were school girls... not interested... I have this habit of making opinions about people at the first sight, and decided not to look back. I turned around and saw a boy and his girlfriend(evident from the fact that they were sitting like as if they were siamese twins), but they here too highschool types.... no one around :( , eventually the garlic bread came.... my mouth is watering as I am writing this... then I came the pizzas... wow the sight of hot pizzas really gets you going... finally got engrossed in the pizzas. sometime then Arpit said" abe dekh dekh kya bandi enter kari hain...", "abe khane de yaar, pizza se accha kuchh nahin hain be, concenterate on eating saale". He too agreed and after I finished I looked around and found a bandi with her top toooo up and her pants too down...wow!!!! "yaar log aise ka[de kyun pehante hain" I thought...."chad na yaar, dikhti hain to dekho..:)". Finally the scene was proved so good that arpit went to the bathroom :D :D

Finally I was satisfied... visa lag gaya, pizza hut main kha liya... hot badis around... there were quite a few now.... aur kya chahiye yaar.... it was 2 O'clock we left and went to vfs office to collect the passports... the office was ac too... wow!!! slept for around 2 hrs, collected the passport from a perfect bengali moti.....yes... process completed....yo!!!

Now I had to buy some formal clothes for my brother's wedding later this month. I am too bad in buying formal... you let me buy T-Shirts and I will choose them withinn flash and that too good ones.... it appears that Tshirt shopping is my hobby, I have a lots and lots of them. aneways there were only 2 shirts which matched the descreption that had been regularly given to me over the last 1 week... mummy saying.."bete aisa nahin, vaisa... " and sis saying..."bhiya vaise vali... aur haan aise vaali to bilkul nahin".... but then the labels on them broke my heart.. 1600 and 2000... abe majak hain kya.... shirt hi to hai.... "chad na yaar. vahan pahuchke hi le lenge..." and when I told this to mom, she was shocked... "bete kaise karega, "dophar ko aayega, raat ko shaadi hain....", "arre mummi to fhir aap le lena jo accha lage...". Finally the tension was hers not mine... hehe

back in kgp slept for around 12-14 hrs, and then went out to eat... mess was closed na... jaise khula hota to main mess main hi kha leta... the last two weeks have been really hectic... dept Tshirt, dept-farewell, bitwise, dept-photo, 2 tests, getting the visa documents ready and what not sucking my blood and so thought of marooing peace today... saw Monsoon wedding again... yaar masto movie hai... bilkul ghar ki yaad aa jati hai....punjabi weddings rock dude.... desperately waiting for 12th.... and then watched socha na tha... and yes socha na tha ke itni acchi hogi... mazza aa gaya yaar... I really liked Ayesha Takia... the story line and the songs too... the movie has put me in a very happy mood... and finally was reminded that today is april fools day by this.

Finally all the fun is over and I am about to sleep , I have a full course test on monday :(, got to study from tomorrow... and that hectic life begins again .... but then I feel I am living life.


Current mood: really happy and cheerful ( thanx to those movies)
Current song: yara rub from socha na tha
