my last blog

today was onam... yet another day in the life of a mallu faar faaaaaar away from malluland.... life went on as usual.. nothing exciting happened.. no girls walked up to me to confess their secret admiration... had breakfast, went to the lab, did something till lunch... went home... had lunch.. came back... and then as if God himself took pity on my state of affairs... got completely drenched in a sudden rain that came pouring down so fast that I couldn't help but be reminded of my own little God's own country and the june monsoons.. kids splashing about in the muddy waters.. on their way to school... the traffic jams because thampanoor bus station is flooded.... people holding umbrellas and still getting wet... some others just giving up and enjoying the "free bath" ... yeah... brought back a flood of memories... and i heard myself laughing out aloud.. (much to the surprise of the freshman girl who was cycling in the opposite direction) ...
there is some of malluland here today after all ....

what an onam...
