Just the other day,waking up early in the morning i felt this compulsive want to go out and so a few hours later it was decided that me,chi n cheks were the treat-putters.While on the topic,treats are something we indulge in often...free food,great company,fun n laughter...well u know!Treats come in all varieties n sizes..b'day trts being the most common and 'self-treat' being the least popular of all.You get 'intern trts','I-just-feel-like-it-gimme-company-i'll-pay! trt','see-we-found-someone-to-tease-u-with-now-put-trt!','wow-your-new-slippers-are-so-cool-now-trt!' 'its Andy-Roddick's-bday-yay-trt! and once a couple of creatures who look deceptively like human-beings and call themselves my friends bullied me into celebrating my own exsistence by extracting an 'exsistence-trt!'...well,u get the hang of it.Sometimes,I wonder if we subconciously count on our mess and the profs to work together towards accomplishing the task of keeping our weight in check(deadline being the end of end-sems)!No denying,they do a pretty good job.The new food-court might pose some issues...
Well,this time we decided on Pizza-Hut..my idea,of course and it turned out to be quite fun :) playing dumb-charades,with our very own Rini JG acting as the moderator/photographer(which I,unfortunately,realised very late),while 18 pizzas were in the making.The teams were named 'orange' n 'yellow' based on the colour of the max. no. of ballons on each side...quite a neat idea considering how creativity is butchered these days,dont u think?!'Tees Maar Khan' was the first movie to be deciphered...these 'yellow' people gave us a shock by revealing their hitherto hidden secret..they were all grt movie-buffs!With that revealation went our hopes of watching Kapi play Sheila.And next,i was chosen to make the score equal by somehow making my team say 'My name is Khan'.After quite a bit of struggle, a nod to 'Is it a recent movie?' and a pose from DDLJ,swethu nailed it!
Around this time,a man who looked depressed,very depressed,very very depressed had walked in and seated himself right opposite me,ofcourse several meters away from our table,but right opposite.A confession here:whenever in a restuarent or any other public place for that matter,i make it a point to get a seat with a clear and large field of vision.People fascinate me...reading expressions,movements,looking at life from their vantage point..quite entertaining or so i think.Anyway,this guy looked decently dressed,cleanly shaven and maybe that was a french-beard or somethin of the sort,with hair slightly receding at the sides.His head-in-hand posture,restlessness,fidgeting and throwing us looks which suggested the world might have been a better place without us girls there made me wonder if he would sound like Moaning-Myrtle if at all he spoke!Ofcourse i agree,his world at that point of time and place would have been a peaceful Pizza-Hut.
The game continued at full-swing...and we girls being just US could do nothing abt keeping our voices down though felt slightly guilty for disturbing the tranquility of the place!Anyway,half-way through devouring our pizzas,this 'poor-guy' become the object of our conversation.On a lighter note,i suggested maybe his girl-friend had ditched him but no,sandy and pavi thought he was too old to have just a girl-friend.So we decided his wife must have thrown him out or must have had a bad day at work and got fired.Chi,who until then was too busy staring at everyone's pizzas while eating her own,decided not to be left out of the conversation and said "Should we cheer him up a bit?".I considered this.."And how exactly?".Sandy,looking from one to another thought it was the right time to step in and say "Please dont do anything of the sort,you'll only make him more depressed!!" A burst of laughter erupted at that and the 'sad-guy' was totally driven outta our minds.
Well,it turned out to be one of the best game of dumb-c i've played till date.Our AAS surprised us with her enaction for 'halla-bol' n made us go "waah-waah!" It was just ulti-fun n 'minority-report' and 'Armageddon' were the toughest to guess.Our 'Diva' turned up late but we had managed to save a pizza for her too but we couldn't stop chi from eating half of tommy's pizza too!Anyways,the point is it turned out to be one of the best girls-night-out we've had!Thanx to everyone for making it that and the long walk from insti-gate to sharav's always worth it!

Remember i said pizza hut was my idea?Well,one look at the bill and cheks turned to me,hugged n said "I love u,chu!".Maybe she forgot chi was watching...and cheks,Thanx I love myself too...very much!Btw Kapi,do yourself a favour n check if u find all your tens n hundreds intact...u dont leave your wallet with chu for 4 days and expect to find everything untouched! And chi,the whole point of publishing this i-dont-know-what-post might be to remind u that u havn't yet paid me n cheks back..we are a little shy to remind u abt that face-2-face u know!
PS:this was a note meant specifically for facebook!lol
That was some awesome time together!!
