S8 TOUR 2 Cherthala

              I know this is gonna be a long post.., but, i want to remember these in the days to come..,(we.., the TEAM consider it as an s8 tour) So, i have decided to make this one extra long..,

        There were a lot of expectations about the final year tour programme among us when s8 started. Unfortunately, the unexpected entry of ONE along with other college events left "no room" for the picnic. But 25th April '10 came in.., as one of the special days in our college life

          My classmate & pre-hostelmate Aswin invited us for the wedding reception of his Bro., @  Cherthala on 25th April '10 from 4pm to 9pm. The Pala puli Bastian., foresaw a jovial trip in it. Jith, Shown, myself & Neeraj joined him for the venture.Thanks to Bastian ., who took the initiative for bringing out a jolly trip from nowhere.., for which could've been otherwise an ordinary trip. The north-eastern territory of "Venice of the East" was conquered by "the TEAM" in a Maruti WagonR on the same day.

       I was told to join the team from Kottayam but was turned down due to certain urgent programmes (submission. of Canara bank application.,). I joined hands with PS (neeraj) @ Cherthala KSRTC stand. Basian & co., came 10 mts late as they travelled a dozen kms extra(i doubt., if they were perverted by Cherthala slang). It was around 12' 0 clock when "the TEAM" united. The things that happened after 12 cant be brought to its fullest here.

I am sharing you a part from it..,

 Jith's pookutty (instead of Arookutty) set the things to fire. Sethulakshmi (her home) was our first aim. Via the Japan drinking water project, we reached her home. The moment we entered, the 1st among the surprise package was delivered.., Sip-ups were served. It was followed by drinks (i mean squash). Her mother made an enquiry on us & Sethu intervened when former turned to our studies. We found a communal harmony @ her home. Pictures of various religious Gods were seen all over the house. The idiosyncrasies of the 4 foot 4.4 inched.., cleared all our doubts regarding the sip-ups. Her childish smile and childish ways made us doubt if she was our classmate.Running after the pussy cat (Tom n Jerry), funny fights with her mother, ladder in her room, sip ups etc.., made the story more funfilled. The only thing which dint join the party were 2 tongueless dogs., which i suspected to be statues..,

The food harvest climbed to its top level @ around 1.30pm. Bastian's approach to the food seemed as if he hadn't seen the food for past 2 years. (Luckily, Sethu's father came only after the food war). Everybody had, to their respective capacities. After some casual talks with the family, we moved to Prabi's home., Sethu climbed into her Activa for guiding us to Prabi's home.., I wondered how she managed to put her foot on earth when the vehicle was stopped !!!

Good Bye 2 Sethu's home...............,

After travelling about 30 mts.., we arrived at Prabi's cottage.

It was the most populated home in our outing. Prabi introduced everybody to us & vice versa. Along with her family, friends & neighbours were seen @ her home to receive us. A variety of dishes were made available to us. But the criminal work done @ Sethu's home prevented us from having those. Bastian stood out here too.., Prabi showed us her new home which was stopped at its half way stage due to water shortage. Inside the house, a room was shown to us. She told us fights were going on b/w she & her bro.,  as both claims it. Let's hope the fight goes on..,
We had some snapshots infront of it before saying good bye to them. Prabi joined Sethu as the pillion and "the TEAM" moved to RIT lady rep.,'s (Akhila) home who only knows what hp does the LH pump have?

Good Bye to Prabi's home...............,

From the most populated to the least populated home. Akhila & the doctor in the making (her sister) received us. Having found the parents were not at home, I shed my mask (sorry..,"the TEAM" only knows what it means). I entertained the whole group with my magic skills using the mosquito net (hoping the TEAM wont reveal it..,) and my plans of boosting the energy level b4 moving to the Beach was successfully completely.

Wait Akku's home..,  we'll be back soon..,

Lady rep., claimed the front seat and i proved the TEAM that the dicky is the safest seat (place) in the car. Activa duo followed us. Cameras & mobiles were given to me and everybody shook hands with the sea. I was not interested to step into the A-Z mineral waterbody. Around 6, we returned to Akhila's home (parents arrived..,) and some among us took bath at her home b4 having the tea.
We actually planned to reach S S Kalamandir as a group of 7. But since, the tome spent on the beach was a little more than expected.., the ladies held back as Sethu insisted to go home. The TEAM got seperated., and ladies went back to their respective houses.

Good Bye to Akhila's home................,

We met David, Prp & Arjundas along with C S students @ the reception spot. 4 different styles of food were arranged. The party was well organised. After meeting the bride & bridegroom, we had our food and was completely tired after the wholeday programme. We spent nearly an hour there and departed to ur final destination.., Arjundas' home (sorry.., actually it was prp's home for the rest of the TEAM). By 8.30 pm we reached munshi's (that's wat we call him) home. the moment we entered his house, Dasappan removed the cover of a big "robust kola", which was hanging from the top. Suddenly, Jacki started barking..,(Had Sethu's dog heard the sound.., it could've died !!!). Also, a communal harmony was seen in the home just like Sethu's.Nobody among us was interested in the robusta, as we hardly had space left in our stomach.

That man again surprised us. Who else can it be? Yes, the real Kaniampadikkal Bastian Ittiyavirah..,

Unlike Munshi, his mother talked a lot to us. By 9 '0 clock we bid adieu to Munshi's home. Everybody were completely tired and thanks to Bastian for his brilliant driving skills.

Good Bye to Arjundas' home................,

It was almost 9.40pm when the TEAM left me @ Alpy KSRTC stand before moving to Prp's home. I reached home by 10.20pm. Thanks to everybody who helped us in the day and i doubt if i had a better day than this ever in my college life.....,
