Its 4.30 p.m and the drawing class is still going on. Shit, I have no clue what to draw on this magnificently bright white sheet. Its been the same since the beginning of the class..my pencils are still sharp, my eraser has not been touched, my drafter still clinging to the drawing board has not moved a bit..sheesh! What an engineer! I see my friend's sheet with some glorious sketches and I am yet to start. I am physically in the lab but mentally outside. All I am thinking is about a game of basketball towards the evening at the court next to Mech Dept, which has a lot of sentimental values attached, no matter how bad the court is. I am eager to leap out of the class, run back to my room, freshen up and then barge into the court with my adidas t-shirt and reebok shoes. Man, it feels good wearing them..it makes you feel better when people see it and say "Wow, how much did you buy it for". The gear is just an add-on.
Then I check my mobile to see if I have gotten any messages-of people asking me to come to court. In the first year and second year, it generally used to be Balas messages and in the third, it used to be Rakesh's. Then I start firing messages to call all on court. I am trying to remember a typical day on court when both guys and gals are there...lets see how well i can represent the scene there....
Generally the first ones to court are Rakesh and I. We do some basic warm up ( we dont need all these crap). Then comes Manideep in his golden color shorts which can be seen from a distance, yeeks, ugly color. Karthik and Anand then lazily turn up but get hyper once on court. Oh! The great bear is still sleeping..wtf!! This grizzly finds time all night and chillaxes during the evening...he finally comes...Mr Dwaraknath comes here in his black shining reebok jersey with matching shoes. Some UFO's like maachis and ani come to this place when they ve lost their way. Then finally the flying saucers come to exhibit their Highness!!!!This was much about the boys.
Lazy gals then show up. First to come is generally pallu who can be seen from a distance dribbling and bouncing en route. Then sandy-the brat comes over. She generally adds fun into the game. She has this weird ogre-like haircut, with hair streaked with colors which she calls computer generated..I call it, local en mass of shit.:) Then the trical trio turn up. Arathi the mallu, sruti the naughty and jd the jada case come as if they have been invited with a red-carpet. Saloni hates playing in the evening comes here as a cheerleader. Chintu is too busy with her qjaada thespi play. Aata is too busy making the dough. Sadhana and Vidya are scholarly people from the Occident. Finally, its 6ish and the game is about to start. Till now, all of them were engaged in discussing family problems, love failures, family planning blah blah...
Oh my God! All are here, where is the ball? Alas, some more gossip time crept in..who has the balls to go get the ball? -A question Rakesh poses..all are silent...
Finally Agosh- the firsty comes up with a playing ball.
We game for about half an hour, guys-guys, gals-guys, mixed..you work out the combinations....
We are tired after a long (so called) session when we decide to go to juicy. Rakesh-the bank, is generally the sponsor...thats how he won hearts of many :)
Its 7.30, i realize its getting late..i shoo away from the place...
Come back to my room and realize " Ah what a game- We all love to Play"
and then i sleep off............
