Telephonic Trauma!!

The Adventure Begins...

All of you technophiles definitely understand the agony of losing a phone! not a REALLY snazzy one, but atleast a Symbian S60 Black Nokia N72 is better than Nothing!!! here is an agonizing take on my personal trauma!!

Day 1- October 17th, 2008.
Ridhiman's Birthday...neat!!

For the uninitiated, Ridhiman Banerjee is one of my best buddies from college. his appearance in college is a once-in-a-blue-moon kinda phenomenon, for some reasons best left out ;-)
I like the oh-so-sweet guy that i have always been wanted to go meet him. So? whats the big deal you might ask/// it was...
i was right in the middle of an internal examination, with 40 effed up marks dangling like Democles' proverbial sword over my neck!! So i am supposed to sit down and study, right???
WRONG!!
i argue with Mom about the importance of Friends in one's life, dress up, comb my face (yeah i need to do that, due to an abundant growth of facial hair) bang the door, and i am off!!!
Sweet!!
Smells like teen Spirit!!! doesn't it???

So, cutting the long story short, i just about managed to get inside a harbour-line panvel to CST local train's second class compartment. being squeezed by 150 men of different shapes and sizes from all directions at the same time isnt exactly enviable unless you are a pervert, of course!! or should i use the more Socially-relevant, politically-correct Homo-sexual..(smirk!!) and the sweat and grime of the late-evening doesnt help too much either...
so finally i get down at Vashi only to find my corpulent butt a little lighter...yeah, by 120 gms of Nokia-branded-plastic-and-circuit...
some son-of-a-gun went ahead and swiped it clear off my back pocket, imagine his nerve!!!

me being a worthless-jobless student types, have plenty of time on hand to fill up my poor 512MB memory card with weird softwares, IIM ahmedabad, heavy metal, and marijuana themes... the works!!!
the usual riff-raff ud find in a wannabee-popular 19 year olds N72...
what hurt me the most wasnt the loss of over 500 phone numbers accumulated over 2 1/2 years, or some cute chicks' pics id coaxed out with my photographic skills, or my 3d snake top-score built up over a year of laborious toil...
BUT it was my pirated MP3 Rock music collection, a multitude of passwords, AND my FIFTH semester BOARD EXAM time table....(dont forget the cute chicks' birthdays laboriously collected and saved in my calendar--"ooh Akshay! u remembered!!! how cute!! Muah, Muah)!!!!!!

Bah, who the Fudge cares!!!


But it is said that when u lose some, you gain some!!
i gained a lot in the terms of my knowledge of malayalam expletives, around an hour of sermons on how to guard ur butt in a train from pervs who wanna feel up ur ass...

All said and done, Bhaskar is a happy man!!!
(heard that song?? not worth the trouble, but definitely worth a laugh!!!)

So long then!!!
