The past one week has been one hell of a ride. As it comes to an end tonight I am left with memories. Memories that I won’t cherish for the rest of my life. And then there are some that I would. The Diwali break was important as it was the last one week of holidays I could spend at home before the monster month of semester examination appeared.
Last Friday I came back home on a CTU (Chandigarh Transport Undertaking) bus along with my roomie Ankur. The ride was pretty smooth as it was way past midnight. It was only at the Delhi bypass where a load of bhaiyas got on the bus. It seemed like they were trying to rob the passengers, the way they boarded the bus. Anyways they went to sleep in a couple of minutes and hence no spitting pan, fowl language or other trademark bhaiyas stuff.
There’s nothing better than coming back home. It’s a feeling better left undefined. In Faridabad it’s a different kind of an undefined feeling, it’s like someone just divided by zero. It was my birthday on 27th October followed by Diwali on 28th October. So the first few days went really awesome.
It was only after these days that I realized that my BSNL Dataone connection at home wasn’t working. In fact the phone line was totally dead. Now that’s nothing new for a BSNL customer. So a simple complaint at 198 must resolve the issue. No. Not this time! It took them a week to repair the line and now when they’ve repaired it, I lost out on one week of work.
Apart from broadband it was Cable TV that I missed the most at home. During the day time I was usually outside celebrating life but when I came back home it was just too boring. My younger brother is having his Class 12th board exams next year. So the usual Indian philosophy of no-cable-tv-till-exams is being followed here.
Anyways I’m boarding a train early tomorrow morning. And then life is going to be like hell. Only this time I’m ready for it. Bring it on Faridabaaaaaaad!
