What living away from home teaches you!

in Life,college



room pg hostel in faridabad

++ The landlord is your lord. You must obey each and every command for you are his slave for the rest of eternity.

++ You can’t wash clothes with the same soap you use for taking a bath. Yeah you probably knew this already. You can’t use it to wash utensils either!

++ You’ll need cash so desperately only when you don’t have it!

++ You can’t find small little things in the local market. There’s always another grand place where you need to go to buy these things. In my case it’s Old Faridabad.

++ Food from the local tiffin-wallah tastes like shit when you are really hungry and look forward to a nice meal at the end of the day.

++ Being lazy doesn’t work anymore. You must wash those dirty clothes or else they start smelling like crap when they stack up.

++ Cable TV is a luxury you can afford but your wallet doesn’t agree.

++ Getting a broadband connection installed is like taking a trip to Mars.

++ It will only rain when you’re supposed to attend an important lecture in the morning.

++ Don’t expect people to be co-operative. Especially neighbours. In Faridabad they feel sharing a junction box is like sharing a DSL broadband connection.

++ Listening to loud music is history.

++ Power cuts can drive you nuts especially when it’s a place called Faridabad.

++ Travelling in local buses is like taking a ride in one of those NASA Space Shuttles. Of course without any protection.

++ Don’t rely on ATMs for cash. They will let you down when you need them the most.

++ Rehri-wallahs are the new Mc Donalds killer! They offer cheap low quality oil filled burgers. When you’re hungry and have a light wallet you have to have them. You will always be low on cash that’s obvious.

++ Your room mate is the best wake up alarm you could install!

++ Digging into others’ tiffin-boxes at college doesn’t seem awkward any more.

++ Coke isn’t good for your bones. Water is a better alternative to quench your thirst. Of course this is what you tell yourself when you can’t afford Coke anymore.

    Try living in a city where no one understands what you say and you dont understand what they say with some unexplainable prejudice towards you with weather being hot and humid and traffic being the worst with nearly "0" number of good looking chicks, unfortunately Chennai have started to suck and am home sick. :-(
