My Best Friend's Wedding - Part I
I had strict orders..
To attend the function.
And I had no way out.
Even if I had a way out, I would have gone for the wedding :D
How can you miss your best friends's wedding ?
S is getting married !!!
It was a long weekend, and tickets were the hot property around. But thanks to S, she had arranged for our bus tickets. Binoy and I geared up for the trip. Just the previous day, we had been to forum shopping mall to get a gift for the would-be-couple.
Getting the gift was just 5 min's task.
Selecting the right card took some 20 odd mins..
Well, the gift is one-of-a-kind thing. Keep guessing what it would be :-)

Wedding is tomorrow 10.30AM near Erumeli, in Kottayam district of Kerala. Bus leaves only at 7PM. Idiots, they wrote departing time 6PM in the ticket. Anyways, that gave us some time for preparing a detailed scan report of the area. Boy, it was a good rocking collection :D
Bus started by 7.15PM.
The first 30 mins were spent finishing off the free-100-sms quota :)
Binoy almost kicked me twice for my non-stop tapping on the mobile keypad. Finally, with 9 msg's to spare, we reached Hosur - Roaming started :(
In the mean time, another interesting thing happened..
The bus was playing a super (s)hit movie - Lokanathan IAS. Full volume. Ppl were in a frenzy. Not knowing whether to scream or to jump out of the window. Some went into sleep.. Some switched on their personal mp3 players. I was all the time on mobile. Bus at high speed, probably past 65kmphr.
All of a sudden, brakes were applied.
The bus made a sharp turn, finally stopped on the wrong side of the road, at an intersection.
A truck had just made an orthogonal transit in front of us!
The driver was sleeping or what ?!
He guided the bus back on track, and we proceeded with therest of the trip...
Let me quickly narrate the dinner incident too, b4 winding up. Bus stopped at the usual place (forgot the name) We waited for long, for our chapathi. The waiter came with porota. Idiot. We waited again.. Finally came our chapathi. Finished it. Sang a song, did a dance, paid the bill and strolled slowly to the bus - to see the driver, red-eyed, shouting slogans in familiar short-lettered words. The bus was filled up, ready to go, and they had been waiting for 2 idiots, reportedly for 10 minutes :D
Back to seat.
Enjoyed the limelight.. :-S
And dozed off to sleep..
