Long Queue..

Some private Bank in Bangalore.....

9.00 AM..Thursday,10th Sep.2009....

BOOM !!!

2 tall Software engineers were dumb-founded to see a long queue of a kilometer outside the gates before it wasn't a sunrise for the bank ! Reason ? Some national level competition forms were out and these hopefuls wanted to grab a copy of it. Such kind of rushes were only seen outside a dominant nationalized / private bank ATM here to draw money or outside a lone eatery in the neighborhood. Seeing the maddening rush, they decided to join at the end on a hope. But they had skipped office and feared their managers would screw them up for late arrival. Eventually they had to risk it as they were many reasons for it.. Company colleagues were out for breakfast, managers' vehicles zoomed past this bank and a doubt that they wouldn't receive their forms was a big point of concern. Looking at the sky, closing their eyes, they joined in hiding their faces out from the crowd as if a thief was hiding from the police right in front of them !

Unfortunately, some of the company colleagues were joining at the back, unaware for these 2 idiots. After sometime, they were shocked after they approached them to fill their forms too ! What a meanly attitude, but to these guys' surprise, they were quite convinced as they cant open their mouths in front of our bosses !

After 2 hours of literal bathing under the hot sun, our dumbos got their receipts, faces like that of Mahendra Singh Dhoni after winning a Cricket World Cup !!

Gosh.. What a day it was.. Guess, such rush was a daily visual out here.. You can find many such ones right now going out in Bangalore at the least ! Just walk near your bank and see for yourself !

In the Midst of Twilight..

Twilight.. Written by Stephanie Meyer. A novel about a silly, beautiful-as-in-a-novel type of a girl who falls in love with a vampire ! Now, that was quite very funny as it sounds ridiculous, even in imagination .. Gosh! Mind has really, no boundaries !

The book quietly paces in the first half about the "Ohh, I saw him and his was the most lovely eyes" , "then, we met and his speech was so sweet as honey" and that and that that... Eww... and then suddenly speeds up when other vampires smell this girl as a snack ! But what annoyed me was the climax.. an ordinary one, just as shown in those yawn type-of-movies, where a boy dances with the protagonist and lights go off ! It should have been more catchy.. Guess, i ain't those critic typos but can sure of such things to stay away from ! Looks like a Mills and Boons kinds re-written.. :)
