I have a very funny incident to share. When I was about to finish my engineering one of my friend decided to marry his childhood sweetheart without telling his parents. The previous day before marriage he started feeling guilty and went home with few of his friends (me included) to tells his parents about his marraige. He told his parents "nalle ente kalyanam annu..anugrahikkanam".. I will never forget the way he told that and reaction of his parents. They got soo wild that somehow we ran back to hostel. He married the next day. When thinking back all these stories of school/college brings a great smile in my face. Wish I could go back to that period of my life.<BR/><BR/>You have got a great blog! Keep it up. I have added your name in my blog.

I remember trying to stalk this Nirmala Bhavan girl (to find out where exactly she lives) who cycled all the way from somewhere near Peroorkada to Kawadiar for Math tutions... in 8th standard. Well, this four-eyed wee little thing turned out to be a fr1ggin Lance Armstrong on her Ladybird. By the time I huffed and puffed into Ambalamukku Junction, she had already waltzed into the Artic Circle or something. Darn, the mortification..... the shame! That day I decided never to go after girls who are in better physical shape than I am. So help me God! ::P<BR/>BTW, it was only today I got to know who Leelu literally crashlanded into. She blogs too.... u reading this, Miss P ? Pleej forgive us onlee for any taqleef. ;)<BR/><BR/>And about that melee we respectable Loyolites got into (like some gang of urchins) at Pattom Junction..... remember the very bro' who got us into that sh1t staying away from the streetfight and remarking to the bystanders- "Countree boys, fighting!

Thought it was us girls who were the babe in the woods :p Thanks for enlightening!! <BR/><BR/>Studying in an all girls schools we grew up looking at guys like some sort of exotic creatures. Didnt quite understand them and all guys were treated as creeps out to do 'bad things' to us (according to the nuns). But the St Joseph's boys next door more or less made up for the lack of testosterone in our campus :)) And looking at their antics near our school walls we were convinced that the nuns were right lolsilverinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16474136215458639419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8700519.post-1144795345427719072006-04-11T15:42:00.000-07:002006-04-11T15:42:00.000-07:00that was funny to read how hards guys try... and u...that was funny to read how hards guys try... and u guys make it seem like we girls have it so easyThanuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12384963844160030808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8700519.post-1144705454071455082006-04-10T14:44:00.000-07:002006-04-10T14:44:00.000-07:00that waz really funny yet true(mean the end part)!...that waz really funny yet true(mean the end part)!!............https://www.blogger.com/profile/13951292724069558720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8700519.post-1144693612082340712006-04-10T11:26:00.000-07:002006-04-10T11:26:00.000-07:00gosh it is funny going through the youth and the t...gosh it is funny going through the youth and the things we did..

Me and Shan had unearthed it. It started with "You are my fantasy, you are my ecstasy..." Viswan thought that we wouldnt say it to anyone. How wrong he was!<BR/><BR/>-Shan's mp3 list on winamp was always a matter of great debate. Known outwardly as a tough guy, he was trapped by yours truly several times listening to some ultra soft mushy numbers which were arranged as a secret playlist. <BR/><BR/>-Kiran being spotted at the gym by Viswanath was an all time classic. The way viswan narrated the story was absolutely hilarious! And the reason that kiran had given in the spur of the moment was that "Im preparing for placements. Ive heard companies look at fitness when they recruit!" Yeah right, like we were in army school or something! lol..<BR/><BR/>-And how can one forget the greatest of all incidents when Shinoj announced publicly how he felt for two women at the same time!
