GREATNESS PERSONIFIED
By the way, i had become a regular viewer of the tv channel called discovery travel and living . i was really awe stuck and amazed by the modesty of the man called INDIAN LARRY . he is a great chopper builder . i would call him an ultimate champion. the way he dresses, his belief in god ,his considerations towards his co builders,never say die attitude and meticulous planning had really inspired me.kudos to the great man.
MY TOUR DIARY- KOCHIN
The departure from the central was drama in itself our class sudents (everybody) boarded the allepey express but myself and sundar raman got this crazy idea of ringing to our parents before departure. i call it crazy because , not a single soul was loitering in the plat form.but we settled the difference and ended up in our respective seats wow! the train was so conjested that i thought i would choke to death. fortunately i got a seat near the window.phew! i couldnt open the window ,rain gods were too generous. venket started playing the uno.while i enjoyed the night by peeping out from the speeding train. some of my friends started this game of " FACE PAINTING " . well the after math was pretty hilarious and the poor wash basin had to take in all the colors we reached kochin again damn rains ,no words to describe. but we enjoyed the bus provided to us.then we were accomadated in the hotel called astoria . i still wonder what that name means.then we went around the kochin dock in a ferry. boy! wasnt it breathe taking? i saw a coast gaurd ship(though i have seen some really bigger ships, my father being a marine engg), the whole dock was pretty scenic. my classmates enjoyed to their maximum . we had this competition called ' DANCE TO GET PLACED' ,winner gets placed in a reputed firm .suresh did a good job and got placed.then we went for shopping and i really saw "PAULO COHELO 'S best seller ALCHEMIST " on the shores of kochin.i also visited a perfume store again to my surprise they had " THE COOLWATER " - my favourite perfume. [ hell no ! it is the dubbed indian version ]. after exhuasting myself in kochin ,we visited a temple.the temple was a good 20km from the hotel.so i thought of having a good sleep during the travel.but my friends thought otherwise.it was all calm and quiet till we finished the pooja.after which,during the return journey, my friends wanted to freak out. my god! , i had not slept for over 37 hours still i was made to dance!!!! (first in the ferry and then in the bus ).i planned to dance for an 'EMINEM ' number (quite difficult !). my friends didnt allow that.so i danced for a vijay song.
