It Takes All The Effort To Miss A Train

Yes. It does take all the effort to miss a train. It was fun for people like me,but not for the others. Let me now tell u what happened.

December 15,6:30pm:: I was the most happiest person in this world. The thoughts of coming back home,meeting chappli shreyas jothi rock baby dk etc occupied the control volume of my mind. I was elated and desperate to get back home. Shridhar,as usual late was coming slowly. We finally boarded the taxi and went to the VASCO-DA-GAMA railway station. We reached there around 7:15 pm. We went to a hotel and got food for the 11 of us. We finally boarded the train at 8:30 and the train started at 8:45.

December 16,8:45am::The train landed in a station called tipthur in karnataka. All the 11 of us were having a lot of fun. Amongst the fun we forgot to notice that the train has not left the station for half an hour. We went out and enquired and found out that the train won't budge for 4 hrs. OH ****. We thought we are going to miss our 2:30 pm train. We finally decided to take a taxi. A senior(Ashwath) and i got 2 sumos for 4400 bucks. We left tipthur at 12:00pm. The way he was driving we thought we are going to catch that train. But as we entered the station we saw the train leave. CHA. Bad luck. We finally decided to stay there that night, got a night train and came to madras the next day.

The fun part was at that evening we went to garuda mall where i had a nice time birdwatching. :P
