You are one awesome Woman...

A Church in the backwater regions of Kerala... The hero waits outside seeing his heroine after a tough search. A fear remains, that she wouldn't have excused him for the mistake he did the previous week. A mistake, which men think for a umpteen number of times before revealing it. A mistake, which a lady would be waiting for all her life to hear for. A mistake which is exaggerated in movies so much that it is an accustomed duty to ignore about.

The mistake ? Of simply letting her know that he is in love with her. This makes our lady angry and she goes back to her granny's house in God's country thinking that "he came to knew about her love towards him". Now he is all around the place searching in churches for apology of "hurriedly" letting his feelings about her. And apologizes in style too, re-proposing once again, this time without any grievances and becomes a friend. But this had something else in store.

On returning back to their home, he expresses his true feelings for her, which, she doesn't obstruct and their friendship blossoms into real love. She even tries to distance herself from him, but slowly she starts to accept the reality that she cant live without him. This is somehow leaked and both of their parents refuse straight away, specially from the lady's side. Fearing consequences, the lady is now fickle minded to the "fantastic chemistry" between them. Our hero doesn't give up that easily either. He goes back to where she is now forcibly been married and to his shock, finds the lady refusing the marriage right in front of everyone. Who doesn't want to give his life for such a woman !

She finally accepts of being in love with him after a long battle of talks and trips. Then the regular stuff of roaming together and all happen.

One day, the hero invites her in his friend's house to talk. She is scared and is finding herself in a dilemma as she is lying too much and in unable to convince her parents about her relationship. "You just convince your parents and I would show you how to live", was the hero's reply.

Ahh.. Aaromale..........

An old memory to re-live !

Sometimes, why the time has to tick forward? Why should not it tick backwards ? So that I could re-live those days again ?!!

Guess, this again, makes me hum the song, "Give me some sunshine, Give me some Rain; Give me another chance, I wanna grow up once again......." from the movie, '3 idiots'. So hypothetical, but very true. This song always pings me whenever I see my old Engineering photos in my computer.

Gosh, how quickly time flies ! It looks like just the other day, on the first day of my Engineering Physics Lab, when I was doing some random stuffs on the apparatus setup with another geek. God knows what it was, but then it led me stand besides 2 chattering guys unknowingly. Irritated on the first moment, I tried to stay away but then as time advanced during the lab, became quite cool with that. But heck, I never realized that those 2 guys were the starting bond of a terrific gang that made waves in the department itself !!

This then advanced to sitting beside them the next day onwards, having loads of chattering and talking nonsense (which looked quite sensible at that time like canteen food , Kannada actresses, college chicks and a few other silly stuff). This led to the growth of our gang by a few more, I mean a couple of benches in the front and in the back. All types of people, Short-tempered, maniacal, patient, dumb, intelligent and what not. Slowly, we all bonded very well, the first step being going out for a movie. I still remember the one called "Lakshya" of Farhan Akhtar for which we all went after a tough semester exam. The joy, the pranks and the fun we had was quite awesome. Then we all grew together, as if staying in the same house; internals with a jolly mood, externals with total seriousness and then goofing it up in the end; parties for each and every occasion, be it for flunking in exams or a reason like coming to college !

There was something unique, so peaceful and so much life in every moment that you can try it even now. Just pass through a nearby college and you shall get to know what I am conveying out here. See a couple or two ? Now roll back to history and see for yourself. There is fun, seriousness and a somewhat, "student" approach, totally absent of worldly responsibilities, just like the smile of an innocent child and a substance, somewhat divine and pure that you wont get anywhere else.

All this sounds normal now, but this was very much special for me. For it was a complete opposite to what I was grown into ; in a meritorious, competitive-edged and a dumb environment. All were total geeks, delved into those 200 page text-books, having just eaten it up a thousand times over and over. Nothing but study; no cricket, no time pass and no outside eateries too ! Harsh thing was, I was kept aside by everyone until I came face to face with a tragedy ! Sometimes, while going for the counselling rounds, I used to curse god for giving me such bad luck, but now he juxtaposed me to this totally whacky, out-of-this world experience, which I would certainly cherish for a lifetime.

By the way, shall post about the department fun activities sometime later. Chao !
