“Kripya dhyaan deejiye. Indore.. se chal kar.. Jammutavi jaane waali… Malwa express platform no. 4 par aa chuki hai”
The Train I had boarded had finally arrived Bhopal. I was happily listening to my fav. Songs as the railway announcer said this, and I got up from my seat to pick up my luggage. When I bent, I saw something that made my jaw fall down.
Nothing. There was nothing. My suitcase was missing!
“Gosh! What now ?? How come its not there ?? Shit, is it stolen ?? What now ?? What all did that suitcase contain ?? Only my clothes, ohh then fine. Oh shit, All my Movie CDs too, which I bought from my first salary. Shit shit shit! What will I say to Mummy ??”
I was panicking like anything.
Just then the Man who was sitting besides me throughout the journey, tapped my shoulder. When I turned around, He said “Sorry yaar. Who galti se tumhara le gaya tha”
I felt like shooting him right there, for giving me the most scary 2 mins in the recent past. But Since, I am no saddam hussain, I had to say “Its ok.”, With a as-fake-as-it-can get smile.
This is the beginning of a journey towards a new destination. The countdown to CAT Starts as I, lost in my thoughts, brood about the next 4 months and their would-be intensity in terms of hard work and efforts I will have to put in.
I am excited that exams are over. Not happily though…
Will I finally start working hard for CAT ?? Will I be able to watch atleast 3 movies a week, without negotiating my study time ?? Will I be able to restrict myself from yahoo messenger and Orkut ?? And oh ya, Will I be able to update my blog as regularly ?? Hehe…
Questions galore, Answers too. But all kept closed in a box which shall open soon…
By the way, If you are in Love, travelling alone may seem as the most frustrating thing on Planet earth. And then, train journeys and Romantic songs on your I-Pod are a deadly combination.
It feels damn low when You listen to such lovely lines set on even lovelier tunes, and just wish that Your beloved was with you right there, in your arms.
Ah well.. Sometimes I feel I was freee of all thoughts for a while, and just lay down.
But I guess that’s not possible. Not atleast for the next 4-5 months.
Now that practically everyone is staring at me in this dingy waiting hall of Bhopal Railway station, I sign off.
Hope to have a nice time for the rest of the journey too.
Chao!
