Ramblings

With a temperature of -20 and a wind chill of -26 degrees blowing in my face, I made my way to the bus stop walking like a sea gull wading in the snow. I was 1 min late ..that the bus left me in the middle of the road, I was stranded there for 15 minutes till I could see the blue lights from the next bus flashing and only to find out that it was a express and wouldn’t halt at my stop.
Frustrated with the things happening I thought of playing with the snow, i picked up some snow in my hand and started meddling with it, that I suddenly heard some weird noise from the top, by the time I could look up…I was covered with snow which was on top of the bus stop roof. If you had just left me there for few minutes I could imagine the children make a snow man out of me.
Now being even more frustrated, that too at 5.30 am in the morning, I thought of walking till the next stop, so that at least it would keep me warm for sometime until the next bus comes. As I was walking through the snow,


I saw the bus pass behind me, freaked out I started to run, it was very slippery and I "almost" fell on my face, regaining my thoughts and the dream that I used to get often about me falling and breaking my front two teeth….i walked so slow that the bus driver exclaimed when I got in to the bus “ WOW…that was pretty fast ”…with a sarcastic look.
Avamaanam thaangama nan appdiye bus a vittu erangidalam n ninnaichen…but intha maari nerathula ego la parka koodathu n yaaro solli irrukaanga….so appdiye quite ah bus ulla poi ukkaarndhutain…: )
The good thing is that I didn’t miss my connecting bus to my university, or else I would have had to wait for another hour.pheww..
I was on time for the class so I thought, why not grab a coffee. The line was so big that I had to wait for 10 minutes and the class had started. I saw one guy walk into my class and hoping that he would hold the door for me I walked right behind him. But unfortunately andha paazha ponnavan let the door slam and I ended up dropping my coffee in the floor and making a big scene in the entrance that the prof had to stop the lecture for few minutes.: (..
At that point too I thought, cha class um vendham oru mannum vendham…innikki namma day ve seri illa….then again thinking about the lose that class would encounter without my presence… I went and sat at the back. Opened my laptop and was downloading some new songs…everything was fine until I heard a phone ring…it kept ringing and ringing…and I noticed people looking at my direction…but i was so confident that it wasn’t my ring tone. Within few seconds I saw the prof walk close to me and said “ it would be appreciated if you please turn off your cell”. With much disbelief I took my cell phone out from my big pink bag filled with lots of other junk. Guess what…it was my phone :)…
Then I remembered that last night my mom’s friend’s son, a very cute one indeed was playing with my cell and god knows what he did to the ring tone…that it sounded like someone barfing.
Adhukku apparam class la enna achi n nan solla maatain…ennoda maanathe ippdi air la naane parake vida maatain…:)

Moral of the story- never let kids play with your stuff…noooo I am kidding…they r too adorable to resist…:P
