ABSTRACT

I wake up to an irritating religious scream of some old moulvi to find out its one o clock in the afternoon. I call for a few of my friends but none respond when I realize all of them have left for college and am the only one left in the house. Felt very lazy about going to college because that is seriously a waste of time. So I get myself freshened up and head towards the kitchen to see if I can manage something to hog. I find aloo parathas very generously awaiting my hungry soul and I oblige them, I am a good Samaritan after all.

Big time jobless so switch on the computer and thought about orkutting for a while but alas! Net connection is down. So far so good.
I switch on the tv and look for some good movies. While surfing, a couple of the Hindi movie channels draw my attention and I intently wait for a good movie to show up. I find some old moronic intellectually challenging karishma and anil kapoor movie coming up so I surf further till I land up in HBO and Star Movies. Worthless movies. Some thoroughly gross ghost movies coming up and some Chinese bullcrap too. So I surf further when I see the logo of touchstone pictures in Zee Studios. Interested I keep looking and there it is. A perfect movie for my mood. I find runaway bride starring Richard Gere and Julia Roberts (I know I do not need to mention that) and I am so happy. Though I have seen the movie for like a thousand times but the love for it is still there. I don’t know, I just simply love those mushy romantic comedies which I know is quite improbable if not impossible in today’s world but who does not like candy floss?

But luck had other ideas I guess! Fifteen minutes into the movie the screen goes blue…cable’s out!! No net, no cable..what am I supposed to do? So I head for college. I know some of you are breathing a sigh of relief that it took me nothing more than a faulty net and tv connection to get me to college..but think again my friend. I am going to the common room to play table tennis. Enjoy!!
