The Chinmaya excursion .......(part4)
Some good writer could write a novel on my Chinmaya days in my new class :)
One thing was sure ....from the minute Anithas and my friendship was sealed ...Dileep's fate was sealed too and connected to ours .....Poor fellow whether he wanted it or not we did not ask him but he too was pilled onto this bondthat formed with the strings of silliness , madness, giggles, serious discussions on equally silly topics , more giggles , laughter ...and everything mad ...
You know its quiet amazing as to how we girls can find a topic daily to discuss ....and its equally amazing how the guys find all this amusing ....day in and day out :)
We discussed our dreams .....they were more like comedy stories directed by the most flop director of this world .And Dileep would turn his head slowly ...in slow motion ...with the expression .... what wrong i did that i have to hear all this :)
Slowly and steadily Dileep became a part of our discussions ....actually he had no choice but he was very brave and became our best buddy from then on ........I remember i had a dream once that Ganesan sir was teaching Shiva Thandavam in the Assembly and for a few days many laughed their heads off discussing this .....
Since our seats were conveniently near the window ....bird watching was a compulsory process ...though we tried hard not to :)
Soon Krishnadas and Kesavan too joined the gang ..... Krishnadas ....who was always with us with his laugh and innocent smiles and Kesavan silent ....
I remember A guy would cross that path daily and Dileep adn Kdas told us that hi name was Thampuran and that he was equal to a gunda .....
From that day started the Thampuran watch and we would religiously and patiently wait for this guy to walk that way ....well its not always you get to see a gunda in Tripunithura .....
Sunil and me were always teased ...since we conversed in English and to make matters worse Usha Mohan teacher made us read Romeo and Juliet !!! Well that cemented the fact that now all got the rights and the copyrights and etc to tease us without any mercy !!!! Well finally all the teasing got us and Sunil and me had a big fight one day ....reason was what even i dont know today and am sure even he did not know :) maybe it was an act to scare the others away who mercilessly teased us as Romeo and Juliet and Naani and Naanappan !! ........Well anyway that reduced the teasing and the coughs that eruptedall around for wrong resons ...
Yes that reminds me if Strepsils or Halls or for that reason any cough medicine would have sold too well in our class since each and every day a few had this cough that was pretty contagiousand severe ......
Some guy smiled at Asha Mary immediately ...cough cough cough ...and many coughs
Sunil asked me a doubt ....cough cough cough ....... Dildeepa spoke to Dileep cough cough cough ........Pradeep spoke to Anitha cough cough cough .....
And some even coughed like they were last stage TB patients ....you know thw more severe the cough the more contagious it was ........
And when the guys had our very own pretty Asha Mary to be courteous to ...we girls got our very own Ram Kumar ...who arrived as a breathe of fresh air and rain and whatever ......Our very own Chemistry lab assistant Ram Kumar who was courteous , polite , extra decent and above all very handsome :)
( NOTE : ALL THIS HAPPENED YEARS BACK WHEN WE WERE SILLY AND INNOCENT ....SITUATIONS SPOKEN HERE ARE NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY BY HUSBANDS AND WIVES OF PERSONS SPOKEN HERE .....THIS HAS BEEN WRITTEN FOR FUN ABOUT OUR FUN MOMENTS AND WRITTEN WITH A PURE INTENTION .....ALL mentioned here are amazing guys and girls who are real gems more precious than any u could buy in a store and people who have them in their lives today are indeed lucky )
Yes now where was i ....yup Ram Kumar .....From then all of us had extra interest in chemistry practicals and extra doubts too .....:) HA ha poor guy he never knew that he was discussed so much that we could write a book on him ......
But he was equally respected too by all of us guys and girls ....and i still remember the autograph he wrote for me on our farewell .....Sathyam Shivam Sundaram ....only ram Kumar could write so much using so less words ...
Smitha Francy is another person whom i admired ....She was one person who could recite every verse in the Gita more beautifully and with so much devotion than any of us in the class ......
Teachers we had the best ....and Mini teacher was without doubt our favourite .....
And am so proud to let u all know that after my initial failure my trail was only upwards and good friends and endless support laid out flowers of success on the trail and i was selected as Head girl of the school :) That was such a proud moment for me .....That particular incident wiped out most of the unpleasant past ....andthen there was no looking backwards ......
Life was beautiful and life was good ...because when u have the right friends then no difficulties are tough enough .........
May write more ........wait and read on .......
