rain rain go away...or should it?

Well its been raining pretty bad these days and the worst part being the water clogged roads due to it....Chandigarh, which is considered to be the first planned city of the free india is no different...i have been twice in knee deep water in chandigarh and both the times, the experience has been awesome...the first time, i was supposed to go home and it started raining cats and dogs on my way to the bus terminal , but it never stopped me and my friend from enjoying it...many scooters and cars were left stranded on the road creating a feeling like being surrounded by car shaped floating boats.So we took full advantage of it and started posing on the stranded scooters and slapping & kicking the water to the moving cars(though that's other thing that the water they threw at us was far more). The pic is lil unclear due to rain on the lens but still
you can see the floating scooter..

Well this was just the first incident...latter being far more funnier and enjoyable than the previous one....

well it appears that the rain can shower away all the maturity in us...well this was explicitly displayed in the college.....with guys and girls walking in the raining, few of them splashing it and few guys exhibiting swanky cars in the premises and few of them displaying pda(public display of affection) by strolling while holding hands, verbally slapping the us,singles...[;)]....but hey! who said singles cant have fun, specially when one has sheer power under the ummmm...seat?(wats the hood for bikes?)...well all said and done, me and my friend went for a gedi on my bike to pu and the so called cool hangout places....with the rain hitting hard on the face ,barely keeping our eyes open, we kept going at moderate speed splashing the water all over the place,shivering due to the wet clothes and wind hitting us...even after the rain was over the fun continued....with us feasting upon hot grilled sandwitches in stuce(student centre ,PU), it was a heavenly feeling.....

Well finally i visited lake with another friend at night(about 9:30)....well sorry for expressing it again and again in my posts but lake is simply beautiful ...and it looks far more beautiful under the moon lit sky, with the ut administration recently adding neon lights to the watch tower at the lake...well i was not completely over, fretting for not having a digi cam with me but something caught my eye...there were about 6 stray pups roaming at the lake.....well they were really adorable , the feeling you get cuddling all of them at the is something that i cant explain in words, and you have to visit the lake and pat them to feel it !

i know the image quality is bad ,but cant help it as the lighting conditions was really bad and i just had a old camera phone with me....

a full day masti....

Well you must be pretty annoyed with the speed this blog is being updated but cant help it, lately so much is happening in my life that i ought to write about it...


The post as usual starts from my college....
The place really is an amzing....
Well i was taking a pic of my three
friends and it ended up with three rows.....
(notice a raised hand in the centre).



Well the rest of the lectures were no different..we just sat there for our attendance and thats it, we were free!


Completely free we visited DAV 10 where the auditions for aaghaaz(its a dramatics club)were taking place...it was like the auditions for roadies and laughter chalange going at the same place....with loads of drama ranging from devdas to mimicry of different actors ,it was simply entertaining(well am trying really hard not to use the word amazing in every other line)...well i am starting to get the feeling that every college rocks...

Well this was just the begining....If you have ever been to PU...one place that you would never want to miss is stu-ce(student centre)...well this is one place that is always filled with food stalls and loads of people buzzing around it with the prices hitting rock bottom....this is where i had a hearty lunch while watching the crowd come and go....



Well after that i was supposed to go to sec 9 to stay
overnight but it was only 3 and the weather
was perfect ,so whats better than the sukhna lake...
Using saved maps on my itouch, me and
my friend walked all the way,
taking wrong turns a few times and
almost exhausted we finally reached there.
But the view and the vastness that greeted
us was exhilarating...


Just as we were about to leave the ducks started swimming in the water and greeting the visitors as if trained and paid by the chandigarh tourism(i know i must be sounding like a tourist visiting the place for the first time ,but dont know something was different).
Almost every one had there camera phones out, come on, some guys still use it to capture ducks and not the chicks ;-)....


well reaching back sec 9 it was still 6 and we still had loads of time till dinner...well again whats better hang out place than sector 17...we again preffered to walk this time...after sitting and wandering at the place ,buying some duplicate novels from the road side vendors....decided to have our dinner at subway, but wait where is it?i remember it being near the tunnel(pun unintended...it actually is near the tunnel...)But where is that tunnel?....After judging my poor navigating skills and loads of curses from my friend(i should have a gps system with me but have to do away with my stored maps on itouch ), we finally used the primitive way...NO NOT THE STARS!..we asked the fellow teenagers roaming at the place...after carefully examining the people who might know where it is, we stopped two guys and asked them where subway is..there answer"subway se kidhar jaana hai aapko"..WHAT! "No the fastfood chain dude!"...well i am not good at even judging people!...later asked a girl who also happend to be buying a novel from the roadside vendor and the following conversation took place-
girl-"its near the hot millions i guess...do you know where the hot millions is?"
my frnd pointing to the one just behind us-"yes"
me"not this one stupid...acha hua pinjore walla nahi kaha."
me-"isnt it near that bridge, near the baskin robbins?"
girl(looking not to sure)-"yes"
me-"thank you"
well we finally did find the tunnel and the subway too but not the hot millions it was supposed to be near to...
anyway, after reaching the place we had a look at the menu...they had special discount on selected dishes according to differnt days in the week...well they had aloo patty that day and the prices other wise to be frank were a little high for two teenagers...(we could have 2 crispy chicken at kfc for the same price afterall).....well actually thats what we had...there is some unsaid understanding among all the broke teenagers, so we got up and started towards kfc(we werent that broke that we couldnt afford an auto...but still it was an all walking day i guess ,so we again walked all over to kfc and feasted upon the glorious dinner....
THE END...
