Me n some of my frenz hv been thinking abt how 2 spend the new year’s eve. As it was after a long time tht v 3 (me, aps n pops) were together, n also tht pops was going 2 get married very soon.
December was an expensive month for me, n so i was even ready 2 spend the day on a beer watching Doordarshan (forget abt Sony, Star etc.).So, initially both Aps (Apurva) n Pops (Rishi) were damn excited abt the thing, n was even thinking of going 2 Goa. Tht idea was shelved coz of some inputs from others, who told tht Goa wud b very crowded at this time, n also to some extent by each of our financial situations. Then v were thinking of going 2 Ooty, but as Aps had been there, v again had 2 find a new place. Somehow, this place called Wayanad cropped up from nowhere, n v zeroed on it. One week b4 the new year was spent exploring the place on the net, making good use of our company’s resources. But there was one problem, v cudnt book a hotel b4hand as evrythg was full. I was getting scared as i had faced some hotel blues at some other tourist place. But aps n pops were so enthusiastic tht i had to aquiesce.Aps had already booked a taxi from Mysore, n me n pops had 2 join him from Bangalore. V reached on friday night, n called quits much earlier n much more moderately tht day than v normally do on fridays. (more…)
