Three states....

Guys dont think that this is a sequtel to chetan baghats' two states. This is all about my experiences at the begining of this year.
20 hours continuous of travel
10 overwhelming hours of warcraft

this is how the year 2010 started for me. It was all set for start of 2010,with a team lunch on 31st afternoon. Lunch was over at 3 and and the train which would take me to YAM was at 4. KANDEN KADHALAI tamanna madhiri last minute rushing into the station . These were the preludes for 2010. I sat in the train enjoying the moonlight ,thru the window hoping that the new year would bring back past memories afresh.

After 20 hours of travel I landed in P.S.G HOSTELS the HOME AWAY FROM HOME at 1.30. After putting my bags at one of the juniors room , it was nostalgia, meeting the friends from other departments and chatting with them not to mention the cricket i played with the automobile guys.
Lunch at arrunachalas and dinner with arasu sir at rayappas marked the evening.The funnier part,to be more correct, was the arrunachala menu, which we used to visit once in a blue moon for economic considerations was looking dead cheap .:)

Please note till now i hadnt seen any onr from B.TECH I.T.Then it was chatting with our juniors and the gossip about our college.OUr juniors were discussing about iqube and means of getting sponsors. I asked them to approach the multinational. multicrore , turn over company GOPI TOURS CEO for sponsorship for which they had a hearty laugh and i got a piece of interesting information:our HOD himself has told the students of I.T department not to go for any IV thru gopi tours. Then it warcraft night , with me playing with the juniors.

YAM dawned, met my mechanical, ece,automobile , etc friends not asingle I.T soul in sight. I consignd myself to resignation that no '00' guy will come:)
Meenakshi had come to YAM with here brother :)atlast one I.T . the yam function went on for
2hrs , dunno who was the chief guest:) then we went to the department to meet our teachers. No sign of them as usual the day being saturday.
We met H.O.D who just spoke for few minutes regarding some i.t alumni meet:) then we met chandran sir who was talking about improving i.t department , a talk heard since 7th sem.
BATISTA(Uma madam ) has been removed from the post of course co ordinator and the post has been handed over to chandran sir.
Aprom NATRAJ Sir, for those who dont remember him he is the person with soft vioice who taught us data maining, T.Sivakumar,Senthilnathan ellarukum kalyanam aagirucham:)
Namma lab pinnadi irukura staff cabin ah maathitinga .Shifted near mtech lab:)
Meenakshi has agreed to become a visiting professor for PSG tech , a statement which she told chandran sir for which i bear witness.
YAM , the same routine playing cricket ,warcraft and chatting with the juniors.
Sunday morning it was time to leave, since we did not reserver ticket for the return , we ddecided to take the shorter route cbe-blore-hyd which will take us just 17 hours , a calculation that became wrong due to the efforts of the ksrtc bus and the train from blore to hyderabad.It took us 22 hours to reach hyderabad :)

Sunday morning 630 we boarded the ksrtc bus to blore, and to our displeasure found him stopping at almost all places which looked like a bus stop :) :( no wonder ksrtc is the only gov bus service that runs in profit .

Reached blore at 3 which gave as 3 hours to spend in blore. we were famished by that time and had a good lunch in a hotel near the rstation. Our roommate had booked a tatkal ticket fro our return journey. Taking print out of the ticket we entered the railway station ,boarded the train,back to work after a 3 day refreshing break.

Well if some of our class guys had come this post would not have sounded as monotonous as my YAM experiences.

COIMBATORE-BANGALORE-HYDERABAD , the start of new year spanned 3 states . Now you know why 3 states
