Walking time is like a boon for me. My everyday 30 minutes walk on the terrace takes me to so many places….imagination sometimes runs like crazy…while other times it is memories floating. I go into past….to places where I have never been….sometimes think abt future…sometimes think about what would have happened if something was done differently in the past.
Since its all in my own head…no one can stop me….and it’s a great time that I have with myself everyday.
Yesterday was a very tight schedules walk….I had so many thoughts flowing through my head that when I think about it now…. I am amazed at how fast my thoughts can run….because I had accommodated so many things in 30 minutes.
Bhar had come home yesterday……so thoughts started running into how we spent time some years back. Every single detail of so many thoughts were popping up…. Felt great.
Albeit the age difference between us and the rest of the party:)…..Sang and I were most of the time in ulsoor or koramangala…that too after Ram’s wedding….it somehow seemed to have increased.
So many moments….laughing together…fighting…
If I think of it….it feels funny now…but I have actually fought with bhar,vin,pri(the most of all)…of course not ram…she was the elderly of us (he heee…..)…and ar..somehow never fought with ar…guess she was too busy getting teased:)
I was this skiny person(I said I WAS)…and so I was called chony (menaing weakling)…and then ee(housefly)…and then kosu (mosquito)….Ar and I were the good girls of the lot…doing all the work without complaining…bhar was the orderer and Vin was her dost(that’s what he used to call himself)…pri used to also do the work…but complaining most of the time:)
Ram as I said…..elderly of the gang…so she was the cook (whether she cooked well or not…)
Lots of memories….
The incident where Pri wiped the phone with colin …made sure it was all clean and nice…and that it never worked after that:D
