Narrow escape!

It so happened,after moving to B'lore for my work,riding my 2 wheeler was once in 3 months or so!that too that weekend,if we planned to go out,and I decided to ride than sit and watch!

Without my knowledge,I would raise the accelerator,only to realise I was exceeding my limits and Mysore road speed limits,only when my sister used to shout at me.This was all because,I was accustomed to b'lore traffic and used to move by sq.cms and at Mysore,I felt the roads were almost empty!!

It was one such day,me and my sister were out and I was riding.I told her,there is something wrong,literally there is no other vehicle on this road....IS THIS ONE-WAY

She confidently said,"noooo....I saw no such board....I did look for them"

ok,happily I moved,only to be stopped by a cop at a cross...."banni madam ee kade"

I with full confidence,"I have DL,Insurance done,Emmission test done,and I am wearing helmet,and tried giving all of them to him"

He,"adella beda madam,one way nal bartidira!"

Me,"IS it one way,there is no board"

He,"Ofcourse its there,and moves the branches of the tree to a side"

Shit,he was standing there to hide it and catch people!

I,"Oh sorry,I didnt notice that,as I was new to this city"

He,"From where do u come"

Me,"Bangalore"

He,"Ok pay 100-00 and go"

I to myself - "No luck....100-00 is not mine from now"!

He,"This fine is valid for this whole day

I,"so it means I can go in all wrong directions today??"

He,":D"

I,":X"

Next,it was another day,I was riding with my husband,explaining all roads,buildings,parks to him as we moved.
I suddenly halted at a signal,noticing its red!
A policeman started signalling me to come to his side.
This time,ok I didnt violate the signal,I did stop,may be a 2-3 footsteps ahead than where I should have been.
I was confused.
My husband got down.
He again asked to getdown and bring vehicle to side.
I signalled my husband to join me.He was laughing!
I tried to explain the cop,I saw the signal a bit late,and then suddenly slowed down.
He laughed,"Still u dont realise why I have stopped u"
I really didnt.
He helped,"This is one way madam"
howcome!!!!!!!!
Same story again,
I,"Oh sorry,I didnt notice that,as I was new to this city"

He,"From where do u come"

Me,"Bangalore"

He,"Number plate says,its registered here!"

I,"haan its not my vehicle,my sisters"

He,"U have DL"

I,"ya ya I have,abt to show him"

He stops and laugh"Its ok,but dont repeat this.I am leaving as you said u r new to city,turns to my husband,"I would not have left if he was riding,now turn and go!"

We started backwards,now we laughing,"If at all I had to pay the fine,its 100-00....if my husband was the rider,it'd have been definitely 500-00.He didnt even have the DL!!"

Next,where is the board here that reads its a one way.We stopped and looked for it....finally to find it again behind a tree!The tree protects it u know!!


What I did!

Its a very common scene in movies.If its not the comedy one,it'll be mother-in-law,her brother and his wife's....or the other way daughter in-law,or poor husbands at times!

slipping into kitchen midnight,searching,end with some leftovers and finally get caught!

I happened to experience the first 2,but fortunately or unfortunately,the last 2 didnt happen!

What a hunger,I tell you....at 12.30 in the mignight,I am not able to sleep!Never was I soo hungry in my life!that too at that hour!Dunno why!may be I had worked out more!but I had sufficient dinner also!God knows!!

Went to kitchen in the hope of finding bananas.I was not lucky enough to find them!I searched searched in the hope of finding something!Plastic covers were making a irritating sound in that dark hour.

I thought how odd it'll be if my in-laws wake up and come due to this disturbance....then I thought,let me close the kitchen door!no ways....suppose they,for some reason come out,its all the more embarrasing!!!!

nyways my search was not giving any hopes.drank 2 glasses of water and returned!!

rested my head,thinking what has gone wrong with me!!I remembered the day,I had felt a similar hunger,woke my mom at 2.00PM and she gave some slices of bread and milk!it was the day when my SSLC results were out!oh,I should say night:)

I was over excited that night for my very good results....had soo much anxiety and I understand, it resulted in such a hunger!but yesterday oooo :(

New Life-Nothing seems to have changed in my life.
New Place-Place is as comfortable as the one before.
New People-Seems I have known them since ages!
New team-Cant figure out much difference.
New work-Change is the only thing thats permanent and change is for good!yeah its going good also!

Holi Again!!


Was like a usual day, and was engrossed in my work suddenly when I was attacked from behind with "happy holi"! oops within the next few seconds I had all colors on my face,dress and desk too! There was no point in washing face and getting cleaned as someone or the other would come every now and then....next I decided,why should Shruthi and Sneha be so clean and tidy!!it was my turn going around and putting colors on everyone now! Was happy to see everyone taking this on a lighter note and enjoying! An unexpected pleasant HoLi it was !!
