at the reception


May7....finally I have got a day to begin with. I woke up late,around 9.45am( but I feel it's too early ), and for someone of my age group having big excuses of toiling hard for the last 2 years to get in any prestigeous
engineering college waking up too early is something difficult to digest.....Some experienced people say waking up at 5am and studying( or mugging up? ) for 3-4 hours really help,but I have never practised that... .Anyway I am not going into all that..

Yes coming back to may 7....It was a very important day.....having a marriage function in the evening.For me last week has been too boring.I have even thought that those school days were better.But this day is 
different.It's our favourite and the most respected Sreelekha madam's son's marriage reception..The feeling that I can see all my friends and teachers made the day much more valuable..My mobile rang and it shown 
"pran calling"...Yes thats Pran Nath( or pranny,kk )..We call him anything thats suits him at that moment..And dont think that kk refers to king kong..Only he knows it.... He asked me to be ready at 11 am so that we both can buy together a gift.. He came at 2pm.......kept me waiting for 4 hours.....thats him....."regularly irregular"..Anyway we have done the job afterall....He landed me safely in Govind's house and went to gym(don't know for what he's going there). This place,govind's house,remains to be our common starting place..... We all used to join here to go anywhere..As I expected Jaggu(Jagadiendran) was already there showing his batting and bowling skills with chinnu( govind's bro ) and with chinnu's friends..

Soon bj also came... Yeah bj is Gokul Nair..Don't tickle your brain on why we are calling him bj.Some say its shortened form of bujji......let it be like that.He is a bujji of course but not of our Govind's standards..... Govind used to be the best among us and is now excited with his 15000/- worth samsung galaxy mobile.... He deserves that..for someone who is expecting to crack almost every exam he has written this 
year this might be small gift..... Who knows what else he may get....

Just before  6 we started to leave for Palayam... Incidently Vishnu( a face we have seen after 2 years or so ) and ahmed came and it was time for us to leave.
We stopped infront of the hall-Bishop Pereira hall- and Nandini also accompanied us just before we entered.... Ma'm was at the stage with his son.... She was really thrilled to see all of us... No girls( except Lekshmi P Nair ) of our class came....And that is expected also.... Govind  was busy taking pictures and sending via bluetooth to lekshmi and nandini...... Unfortunately neither of them asked him how much his galaxy costs... :-)

Coming to food...there was fried rice,appam etc.. with chicken in non-veg area..... We ate as if we haven't eaten anything for a week..Sid(sidharth) and kanju(hari),rohit,adithya and pran also came later... Those memories of our unforgettable high school days came back flourishing. Our bj's hurry to leave made me,hari and vishnu to leave early..  One thing I understood of bj was that his tension and fear are directly proportional to time(particularly night)..And even after 18 years of earth life it hasn't reduced a bit.....perhaps increased...What can we do...Thats him... Of course that day was special...... a day not to be forgotten.......
