Trends that I observed in friends

Hello friends,

I came up with an idea of writing all the trends I observed in my B.Tech friends since the day I met them to the day I left them. I am going to write it in my next post starting with Aditya and ending with Uday/Deepika.

So stay glued for the next post.

Cheers.

PS: Happy Friendship Day

Darling

Hello friend’s I wanted to post a memory from my school days, the first heart break of my life.

But I couldn’t jump into that, well this post is a kind of bridge which will lead to heart break.

Let’s start with how my behaviour was towards girls as a kid.

I guess this was in my first grade where we used to live in a neighbourhood. All we kids used to gather in a ground nearby every evening to play. Raju, who was older than all of us, said to me that sandhya is his darling and everyone should respect her. The word Darling was catchy and I instantly added it to my vocabulary. The next thing I’ve done is going to Kalyani, who happens to be my best friend then (@sreenu she is also a bamber) and told her that “Kalyani you are my darling and don’t talk to anyone except me”. I had no idea what it meant , but I guess she did because she became furious and started running towards my house yelling “aunty”. I thought this was the end of me. Back then I had daily routine of being hit at least 3 times a day by my mom. So naturally it scared the shit out of me. But to my surprise my mother just ignored it. Love you Mom.

“Kalyani you missed me sweetie”.

Now I was in my third grade. Same as all kid’s of my age I knew nothing about girls except for something about their anatomy. I was new to the class and succeeded in making good friends. Being a good student I’ve become popular in the class. This made me arrogant and I started being all authoritative with other students in the class. One day there was movie aired on TV and it’s a famous movie named “ANNA”, which means elder brother in Telugu. The hero character in the movie influenced me a lot. The next day in school I was behaving like the hero from the movie. In break time I started to command everyone to call me “anna”. There was this girl in the class named “Sravani”, she was very cute. I liked her a lot, I was not aware of what these feelings are. But when along with everyone she called me the word, I couldn’t take it. I told her that everyone except her should call me “ANNA”. I wish I could talk to a girl the same way now. The next day at home my father called me and asked “Why should the girls call you anna?” I forgot to mention something, throughout my childhood I was terrified seeing my father. Later I’ve learned to live with it. Anyhow I’ve got some of this from my father “pārthāya pratibodhitāḿ bhagavatā nārāyaṇena ".

Later I found out who compromised my identity to my father(she was “Nikhila”, also one my B.tech class mates).I couldn’t forgive her all these years. I had to stop all of it after my dad explained to me what would happen if not. Well he had a point guys.

Nothing changed between me and sravani. She used to smile at me all the time. I used to be around her trying to talk to her as much as I can. This went on for some months. One day in the middle of year entered “Ramya” into the class. God she was an angel. I couldn’t take my eyes of her. Things started getting weird, I wanted to talk to Ramya too, and even she used to smile at me. Then I understood one thing, girls smile - Danger !!.

Chaitanya, was my best friend those days. We used to go to tuition daily. One day on our way back home from the tuition, I got a crazy idea. I asked Chaitanya to come with me to some place. When we finally reached the place I told him that we were standing in front of ramya’s house. He asked me “how do you know it’s her house?” I told him that I was following her after school and that is how I found the house. I asked him to yell with me,”Ye Ramya pilla bayataki ra, I like you”. This continued for few days after which I learned that her father is in military. I do not know why but I got scared and stopped visiting her. I cannot even think how upset she might have been.

With these mixed feelings for both the girls the year came to an end. I was planning on deciding who will be my girl in the next class. But it was too late. Thanks to my dad we moved to a different place and before I knew I was in a different school.

Sravani and Ramya, things would have worked out between us sweet hearts if destiny did not us drive us apart.

On the bright side most wonderful phase of my life started life at “St.anns” high school. This is where I have grown so much psychologically. This where I entered my adolescence, this is where I found my first true best friend, this is where I understood about male-female relations, this is where I thought I understood love. And the most beautiful thing of all these is where I met …………To be continued in Heart Break

CONTROVERSY OF DUALITY

Hi friends

This memory is about the arrival of word “Pitiki” into our lives and the controversy clouded around it.

It was sometime around January of 2007 that I remember I saw the Movie “Annavaram” of Pawan Kalyan (Super Star in Telugu film industry). It is in this movie the legendary word “Pitiki” was used for the first time ever.

It was a scene in the movie amongst Pawan Kalyan, Asin (lead actress) and Venu Madhav (a friend of the hero). Pawan kalyan and Venu start to tease Asin, who gets angry with them and warns Venu Madhav pointing out that he was crossing limits. Also she insults him for being short by calling him

“PITIKI”

When I was watching the movie, the only person whom I could think of to suit Pitiki was Chandrahass. Chandrahass though is of fine tallness, all of us his friends used to make fun of him for being shorter than most of us. Then it continued for some days that I called Chas Pitiki. Friends started to notice the new name and they started to like it. So within in a few days he was no more Chandrahass but Pitiki.

I don’t remember how exactly this happened but Pitiki gradually pulled Mahesh into this by calling him Pitiki. He managed somehow to convince everybody that Mahesh was the Pitiki. This happened for a semester or maybe more.

After some time when ever Pitiki is used by anyone, we just related it to either Chas or Mahesh. If both of them were around, each of them would think the other is Pitiki.

This ambiguity has not been cleared since then.

Now I propose that we all shall decide who will remain Pitiki for the rest of our lives.

Hence forth shall remain only one bearing the royal name “Pitiki”.

Hail Pitiki.

My vote is for Chandrahass.

Coming up next on memories Heart break

BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER

Hi friends,

Here is a memory about a person from whom I have learned to stand up against all hurdles for our dear ones.

It was a beautiful day after summer holidays. It was after school, I was walking in the corridors with my friends, I saw a boy who was talking to a girl. The boy was short with very small poking hair and the girl was a little tall compared to him. The boy was holding some books in his hand. We were curious of what they were doing and sneaked by the intersection of corridors. He removed a long white page from one of his books and was asking her to just read it. She read through I guess all of it. Then she slapped him and walked away furiously. The boy crying loudly ran towards boy’s room. I was upset seeing how girls treat boys and wanted to console him. This is when I walk into the boy’s room and console the guy In a heroic manner. I asked him to calm down and told him that she would someday understand his love and get back to him. Then I took the page from his hands and started reading. After reading from it I was shocked. It was no ordinary love letter. He wrote the letter to the girls elder sister who was one year ahead of us in school. I then decided that this guy can never survive alone in this world and there started our eternal friendship. That’s Chas.

I wish if this is how I met Chandrahass.

Coming back to normal he is a weird person from my memories. Though I have different opinions now, I am quite sure that this is what I thought of him before we were friends.

This was from my school days. For every class there are seven sections. I was into F section; we were all Telugu first language students.

Whenever I got together with guys from 'c' section I used to observe a guy , he was rather very odd, never laughed, looked seriously all the time and mostly stared at me. I thought he was creepy , this happened many times and I arrived to the conclusion that there is some problem with him. My schooling came to an end and he was the least of all with whom, I would be glad to meet thereafter.

I had a good friend from 'c' section named Anil. It happened that Anil was my intermediate classmate and we used to hang out a lot. I was not aware of the fact that the weirdo was one of best friends of anil. It happened one day that we were on a bus back home, suddenly at a bus stop the weird guy gets on to the bus and starts talking to anil and one of my good friend’s shyam. Then Anil formally introduced us. I did not even care to remember his name (I often pretend to remember names but I don’t). I never even tried to talk to him, because somehow I’ve decided that he is not worth it. There was always awkward silence whenever he was around. It was suffocating. This happened many times during my 2 years of intermediate.

Now these were my first days of engineering college. He is in the same class as I am, still I do not know his name. He was also in the same college bus I was. No signs of changes in him and also were no changes in my views about him.

Though I am a fun loving person, I never liked the idea of being ragged. I thought it was uncivilized for strangers to pick on us. To escape from being ragged I started to act as if I were very sensitive and suicidal. During ragging I was often being put together with this same person. He also used to be reserved and sensitive. I remember one day one of the senior’s said this to both of us

“Why are you always so sad, it’s not like you are going to die, Get lost from here”.

Now this is where it all started. I was very competitive and active in the classes then, often resulting in my answering to most of questions in classes. People had felt that I was good at studies. One day this weird guy walks to me in the break time and asks me whether if I could help in trying to understand mathematics. I was really surprised to see how polite he was and there was a childish innocence in his voice. All my former opinions on him were shattered by that one smile he gave to me when I agreed to help him (while writing this sentence I was emotionally moved). I asked him to come by my house to do some studying. He did not show up at my house but did show up in a hospital, he was operated for appendicitis. After he returned to college I used to talk to him. Somehow we’ve come closer. I used to tease him all the time often hurting him, but he never complained. He has become so close to me that I used to always shield him in everything even if it was uncalled. One day Nikhil mentioned something he has been observing about me, that I always try to defend Chandrahass even if it is unnecessary. This is when I realised that he was just not a friend but a younger brother to me.

Always with that cute smile he has made a residence in my heart. Though he is in a different continent now, a single day does not pass by without remembering him.

Cheers to our friendship.

Well friends that was Chandrahass.

Bye for now and I will be right back with a new memory,

Coming up -- Pitiki controversy

Love you all.

How I met Nikhil

It’s a summer day and I was playing or say trying to play in the ground nearby my house. I see lot of people gathering around nearby; curious I went to see what they are up to. A kid roughly of my age was being bullied by two guys older than him, this is when I walk into the fight and rescue the guy in a heroic manner. I carried him back to his home. I vaguely remember this is where the boy swore to me that he will never leave me. Well that boy is clinging on to me till now- that’s Nikhil.
I wish if this is how I met Nikhil. I was destined to meet him; this is what I think of him.

Lets come back to normal, not a great story, quite normal but I feel happy the way we met. It was my first week at engineering college, it was very exciting. I always have no inhibitions speaking to new people. Trying I was to make some new friends. I was talking to some of the guys in the last benches of our class room. I was narrating them some rated Jokes. Suddenly a tall guy, well built shows up in the middle of the conversation and seemed to be quite interested in my jokes. He said “hey I think we already met”, I had no clue what he was talking about. This is when he told me about the past, suddenly I remember every thing.


I remember one day from my Intermediate betterment exams, I may not be genius but was fairly good at studies. I used to not carry any of the cheat papers with me, but was not sure why it was always me who was being checked for Mal-practice during the exams. I was checked thoroughly and sent to the exam hall. The invigilator in the hall was a lady and she started to check my exam pad and writing utilities. I told her that I was checked at the entrance and asked why is that she wants to check me again. To that she replied
“ Are you not aware of what is happening during exams and there are many ways one can cheat ,, you should be reading papers”,
to that I replied I usually don't read that stuff in papers. She then made fun of me asking
“Do you read only the 'vasundhara' part of the paper”.
Every body in the class was laughing and I was kind of embarrassed. I went straight to my seating and started my exam, it was math Exam the guy beside me was having trouble solving some problems. He asked me if I could help, I gave him my papers and he was thankful. As you might have guessed, it is Nikhil.

Well there after he used to greet me well whenever we were around .. Initially I thought he might be very innocent. He seemed really nice and always showed interest in 'my kind of fun'. We soon realized that we live close by and started meeting quite often. Back then I used to have loads of Telugu movie cds. "Nuvvu Naku nachav" that is the movie he wanted. I gave him the movie. This movie started everything. We realised our shared interests in comedy movie s, used to have fun time whenever we were together. We made fun of everybody in the most sarcastic way imaginable, and that often ended hurting others, though he denies this he was my support in every nasty thing I did.

I don't exactly remember when I realized he is my best friend, but I do understand that he is going to be around for a life time.

Cheers to our friendship.

COMING UP – HOW I MET PITIKI........

Welcome To Memories !

Hi friends,
Welcome to Memories. This is an attempt to recap all good memories of my life.

I was wondering what made me think I should blog something like my memories.

At times when I am with my friends, we often end up remembering some funny incidents from our past and laugh on how we behaved then. Even matters that shook us to the ground seem hilarious now. Every time we have these little talks we end up having a great story. I was doubtful whether or not will I remember these greatest stories of my life, the way I remember them now. Well that’s the beginning of all this.

Recently when I was bored from the routine in my life, I wanted to do something which will make these memories more available to all of friends. I was considering my options, which is when I caught eye on one of my friend’s blog http://sreemad.wordpress.com/about/ . I kind of liked the idea and expressed my interests in writing a blog to my dearest friend Nikhil. If he had not liked the idea this would have never turned into reality, here is where I thank Nikhil for his support.

Well friends Thank you all for reading through all this.

My first memory will be posted soon. I promise lots of fun moments.

Love you all.
