I rock! Yeah, that has been the anthem for the past 2 days. Don't know why, but the last two days don't seem to have been disconnected at all! Yesterday was superb, and today, though all I did today was just travel, has the same proclivity. Yesterday's sleep was perhaps just another booting, before the newly installed updates started running :)
The start of this 48 hour long roller-coaster was awesome. You know when you decide on something ideal, and then you decide it is too stringent for you to follow? Like perhaps going on exercising everyday, and waking up at 5 for it? (I've been trying that for one whole month now). I took my white-board, which I had bought during my jee days, (and used it well enough), to my hostel thinking it would help me organize. That was at the start of the semester. The cure soon became the menace.I couldn't find the carpenter to drill the holes in the walls, and when the carpenter decided to come, I had classes full day. So my old board took up some more ground space in my already crowded room.
What happened yesterday was, I got up at 8 (which is a feat!), bathed, took breakfast, and called the guy who is fixing doors in our hostel washrooms to come and drill the hole for me. He actually came! Instantly! And lo, the board was up! I haven't been able to use the board till now (I am home now) but the sight of it was enough to elevate my spirits. I attended all the classes, was the first to complete my Digital electronics practical!
The only horrendous thing that could've nullified it all, was when I had to confront a Lab attendant of another lab. It might have been serious, but soon I met the prof of the course, and he said it might be because of some bad mood, he will talk to him. Ah! My steps back to the hostel were dancing in the interlude. And then, we started playing Counter-Strike!!
The boon! The gift to a bored hosteler! What did you think IIT? You would stop LAN and we won't play LAN games? HA! Preposterous! (I always wanted to say that) We set up a WLAN, connected us in, and played! And the way I scored!
I had only started CS two or three days back. I had played a little in my 12th class, but not much. But oh! The bliss! I outperformed 2 of my friends, and sometimes even single handedly killed all the terrorists!(I was CT). The time of my life!
After all others had slept, it was just me and T playing. We played with some bots first, but losing again and again, T (who is a loudmouth) asked me to come one-on-one. Two of my neighbours were already there, two more came. And the humiliation was complete my friend. The final tally read 22-11!! I could have tormented him further, and could have easily won 50 more sets, but the owner of the laptop became frustrated with the monotony of my wins( :D) and took the laptop back from T. I finally slept at 3:30, after gorging half a litre of juice.
The first thing I did today after waking up, was call my ma and tell her I would be home soon. But how would a boy react to a candy bar, even if he misses the school bus? S and K started playing, and I inadvertently joined them. The CT's were dying (I was terrorist this time), and 9 o'clock became 10, then 11 and finally became 1!! I quickly closed the connections, packed my things up, and left. No time to waste now. My lunch, a pear and an apple!
Why didn't the journey dampen my spirits? I have to change buses twice to get to home.
In the first bus, a beautiful girl was standing next to me half of the journey. The bus was overtly crowded, and she started sharing her plight, and we began to talk! (I still can't believe my luck). When she got off, she gave me a sweet smile, my heart skipped a beat! The rest of the journey was chirpy :). And if this felt good, the next bus shifted me to heaven!
The next bus was a DTC from Nazafgarh to Bahadurgarh. No one was standing, which was a good sign that I could get a seat. I entered with a horde of other people, and did get a seat. A moment later, in the seat next to mine, another beautiful girl came and sat. (It has been 8 hours since then, and writing this my heart is doing horse runs!). I couldn't talk to this one, she slept halfway across the journey, but she tilted her head right and it rested on my shoulder! A person who was standing next to our seat grinned. I tried to be civil, tried to move myself away (I had the window seat), but anyone who has travelled in a DTC can tell, you can't move an inch! So after some pretension, I decided to enjoy the ride. (The rest of the journey was chirpy too :) ). Another thing which could have gone right was if she would have woken up a few moments before the stop. It would have been an awkward situation, and we could have chatted. (I even thought I would take the number of this one). But dreams. They never come true. The conductor called out Bahadurgarh, and she woke up with a start and rushed off. I heard the glasses of my dream shattering.
But I didn't try to pick up the pieces...
We both took the same bus to Rohtak!
So my dear friend, she is an MBBS student from delhi, studying in Rohtak (PGIMS, or should I say, Health University). Her name is Preeti, and she didn't give me her number :(. I didn't ask for a number, I asked for her facebook profile. But she thought I wanted to hack it (she didn't say so, but her tiny questioning made me believe), and denied.
God, I am such a dork! Why didn't I think of it!
Anyways, I am home now, have just relived my journey again, and I can happily go to sleep now, with dreams of me killing terrorists, or probably, girls flying in the DTC :)
Good night.
