karun - saleeee :P sorry karun ;) but thats how i call u
we decided that we shall go to kodai only thursday mornin over a casual call and we never knew what is there , what to do there, wht we may be able to look and anything .!! trust me .!! absolutely nothing and none of us knew :P
we decide we ll go and we decide we will search for places around , google and check images and enjoy a wonderful weekend :)
thursday by evening each one of us had got to know a lot of places and each one of us were saying we know some places :) when we wrote to each other what all plcs we got :P we found that the places we have al searched is from the same site :D and al of us have the same information abt kodai now :D so we decided lets not google much we can do that e1 after reaching kodai :D
we den msg each other that we are all gonna leave offices at around 6 and strt tomorrow evnin :) until anil says hey.. i dono wana go to office today :P i m on leave and we shal leave a lil early only :P everyone retot and decided we l leave at 5 from bangalore :P
but again i left office at around 4 45 and started drivin and called anil and thats when i figured our man had got into a afternoon nap mode :D and i woke him up from his day dreams :P he said hey.. u come down man i shal be ready :D i said fine, 15 mins and i m there .!! he is like fine.. baaraapaa!!(our usuall style :P:P)
5 15 i m at the place designated for him to alight :P he says maga sorry le.. swalpa time kodo.. bartini.. i said as usual baa maga .. kaitini :) no probs ( let me tel u that anil usually doesn make me w8 ) so this time i said fine :P
5 10- 5 20 best of the msgs between all of us..!! excerpts : hey.. kill anil.. chuck him.. u are also late maga .. nenu 5 ge ili barbek itu.. nenu late madidya.. saii hogorle.. nanu late madtini.. i l also go to office and swipe out :D:D swalpa time jasti adru sigate ( wipro 9.5 probs :D:D was evident in those msgs )
5 25 anil comes and i m on the call with manoj scolding anil for making it e1 more late :D and he is standin next to me and says maga.. nenu 5 ili irbekitu . 5 15 madidya :P so.. swalpa nenu scoldin togo beku :D i said fine. get in and lets go :)
5 45 i reach the place designated for our next two brats :D manooj and karun :P bt the funny factor was the place designated was like too much crowded and i had to drive a bit farther :D adding fuel to their frustration that i changed the place of pick up and made them walk a bit more .!!!!!
5 50 all of us are in the car and we say hey and hug each other and say lets make this a journey of enjoyment :)
6 45 we are on the way towards salem and it starts to rain :) and ask me.. driving in rain is as much fun as it is for risk :P and it was raining damn heavy over the road :) ( all of us had this same doubt in our minds , if it rains this heavily in here , why the hell are they behind our KAVERI ( cauvery ) we all said cauvery namdu kolveri nimdu lol.!!!) al this apart ... but i was not able to speak so much as i usually do :P rain and nite drivin is a deadly combination and do that in TAMILNADU :D:D they are the drivers who drive across when its red in signal and stop at green .! ( trust me they do and i have witnessed ) and they drive opposite in a one way and make u think m i like driving opposite to one way ) .!! this and more with rain and dusk light with the windsheild getting fogged:P godddddddd.!!! i got the sentence from our very own anil.. :P enapppa sissyaaa... car oodsstha idre nam kade thirgi nodoode ila :D thumba silent aagidya :P i somehow got that back by sayin .. han magane nannu ninna nodtini.. aamele jana ella bandu namna nodtare road mele malkond irtivi ande .!! he understood and said maga super.. nam jeeva nin kai ali ide:P
7 45 drove and was talkin now and den .. most of the conversation from me ws like ... han eno?? sorry maga sari agi kelskol lilla.. sorry.. eno??? enoo ande?? le.. sorry.. helu :D
8 30 it stopped raining and we just got down and had some tea and coffee and smoke ( none for me :D:D lol.!!)
9 45 called my mom and told her i l not drive whole nite and all i will sty and take rest ( she would kill me if i had driven nite whole :( ) and if i had driven the whole nite U WOULD take the extra class on , hey.. pose kodakee.. torsakke.. ninge nidde baralla anta drive madidya.. hata ninge .. hucchu ninge.. yappaa.. idela nenp aitu.. ishtella baiskond ugggsskond iro badlu room huduka na anta ankonde :)
