Advanced B’day Wishes..

I was just browsing my blog and saw this:
Feb 25, 2007 at 12:56 am this was typed.. but it wasn’t posted.. I don’t know the reason.. Just thought I would publish it :D

Glad to be back blogging, on my birthday.. :) . The first thing I am doing today is blogging :D

I guess I stopped cutting cakes on birthdays and celebrating it since when I was in sixth. After that all my birthdays had nothing special to remember. Anyway this one was different and will be fresh in my memory. My lab mate and friend Arvind also has his birthday in this month(24,Feb). I was on cloud nine after the surprise cake cutting (hitting) in our college canteen during lunch hour on Friday. The big chocolate cake read “Happy birthday to Arvind and Arun “. Since I didn’t know about it I hadn’t invited anyone. My friends had informed my classmates and some couldn’t turn up due to lab and some didn’t get the information :( . Missed some of my friends whom I wanted to have there with us. Anyway many of my friends turned up and it was great..I even forgot that I have finished not even one program in Visual C++ lab that was to follow. Thanks to all my friends who came there and made it memorable .. :) May be there is a reason why most people miss their college life and badly want to do it all again.

Thanks to my class guys for organizing it; thank you Jayashree & Jenifer for turning up. That day was great!!!

Innocence again

This is a small incident that happened. Thought I would share it. I had to go to nearby shop a cute little Alpha kid (Alpha Mat. Hr. School :P) was there. He was a nerd by look and might have been in his third std. This is how it went. The English transliteration is without brackets and you will find its meaning within brackets…

• Kid: Anna, adhu evlo? (Hey bro, how much is that?)
• Shopkeeper: (some amount)
• Kid: pointing at some pouch adhu thanga.(show me that)

• He was pointing at some transparent pouch and asked for it. The shopkeeper was rummaging through the pile of pouches. This boy thought he would help and uttered..

• Kid: yen thambi vechirkamadhri irkla.. adha thanga.. ( I asked for the pouch that’s similar to what my brother has )

• This made the shopkeeper and me laugh. :))

• Shopkeeper: laughing yenaku yepdi pa theriyum? ( How will I know?)

If you didn’t find it mirthful, there is some serious problem with my way of describing things :P
