so! i'm back from pondi. in one piece..lil broken here n there but, essentially together still!
i really dunno what to say bout it actually. it was kinda what i expected it to be...weird. not much of an 'adventure' but i guess we used up all of our share of the adventure in getting into the bus to pondi itself. woah man! some advebture that was too!
18 of us, at the KSRTC bus stand. frankie has all our tickets, n at 9.45 p.m., the dude's still 'stuck intraffic'. so we all got jus a wee bit worried. but annavaru(copyrights to nikki!) came at last. now jus wen we thought all our problems were solved, we were told they had jus begun.
so problem no. 2: none of us had no clue where exactly the bus came...the bus stop is a HUGE affair! so wat do we do? all of us wait at one spot while gud ol' frankie runs round he place trying to figure out. once a while, we run from behind him. finally after some 20 odd minutes of chaos n utter confusion n jammed networks n frank getting lost every other min, we come to knw that the bus's actually at the other end of the stand, n we've all of 10 mins to get there. RUUUNNN!!!! imagine the sight- 18 of us, with all our bags n baggage, running across the bus station like a coupla crazy maniacs. oh lord! the ones at the back cldnt see the ones in front, all of us terribly scared that we'll either be lost, or will miss the bus! ah but we did get there eventually...someone upstairs musta felt pity on our plight!
the trip was kinda standing proof for murphy's law. never realised that there are somany ways things an go wrong!
so here are the weird tit-bit tales for those 2 fateful days!
=shyam...the 'star' of the trip!he held up his hand, so that we cld see which direction to run at the bus stop...follow the guiding star!
=reaching at pondi, n suddenly having no place to stay! rocky beach n a pay n use loo to save the day. with cute french guys around no one complained!

oh my God.that seems exciting.to be frank i never been on such trips,yep not even one.i always wished i could,with just few friend,possibly a long trip on my bike.but it never happened.here too we are planning something of that sorts,but nothing works out.you know sometimes i feel just get ur close friends and just leave,the others are too insignificant to be taken along.they say they are coming,then they say they r not,if they come they ll complain...but to be honest,i enjoyed reading ur post.more than that it made me feel i actually lost something during the time i should have undertaken such trips.ah being in the same city as ur parents,being a dayscholar,i got something,so i missed something too...laws of nature...
