Childhood Stuff

Woh man,i was having a little talk about ma childhood with ma mum and a lot hilarious stuff came up..

* When i was less than ONE,mind you,ONE,i was OUT playing in the street,and came back home saying a cat had bit me with a cat bite rash on my arm!My mum s like"It was a quite road,no vehicles an all..an i was pretty sure you ll be safe."MAN.

*When i was TWO, i had my first sleepover.i was just having too much fun in the guy next doors house,n i wouldn't come back..i slept over :D

*When i was pretty young,two-three or sumtin~my mom said,i spoke my first English Sentence SELF-Constructed.As in,not repeating someone else or not taught by someone else.its sumtin ma dad keeps buggin me about.I was cuddling up to him one night and wanted him to intertwine his fingers with mine.So, I'm like"Dad,can you please link your hands with mine?".Woh,couldnt i have cum up with sumtin Jazzy :D?

*When i was in fifth standard,we had gone to this party,with all friend uncles and aunts n everythin ,roundabout fifteen-twenty people ,with quite a few kids 'round my age.This one uncle asked "What do you want to be when you grow up?"..Everyone answered Doctor,Cricketer an all that.Then it was my turn...i was known for my notoriety and people kinda expected me to say Engine Driver,Conductor or something.But No,guess what i said.

I nonchalantly proclaimed "Nah,no fixed plans, i would like to take life as it comes".
People were left stunned and impressed.

Ah, i love myself \m/.

*My handwriting used to be and is HORRIBLE.Once,in sixth standard,my teacher asked my mom to read my notebook.She asked him if a second standard kid who was just getting used to writing had written it.:(((

* I used to be this Totally lazy fella.Would never participate in any stuff.But then they said,you must participate in atleast three extracurricular activities !And guess what?Much to my teachers and mum's amusement,I promptly registered myself in two competitions.Hindi and English handwriting.

*I used to suck BAD at Sanskrit.Every time,my mum used to catch me and try to push in as much as she could the day before the exam..and i would just pass .My marks were ALWAYS between 55 and 65(no exception.This happened for the whole of sixth and seventh(i REALLY used to suck bad at it)).Then in eighth,i went to ma friends place,didn't study ANYTHIN,total bulla....and ended up with a 91.Yep,dont ask me how :).I myself totaled it twice again to see if i was making a mistake!

*The third contest i registered myself was Flower Arrangement.On the day of the contest,on the way to the school,i picked a few flowers,a few leaves an all dat,put 'em in my pocket and went to the competition.The guy to my left was Atheendra,smartest,most intelligent,most G.K,Best athlete for five years running,topper for five years running,winner of every fuckin competition he takes part in,and he took part in literally everythin,(He is now in IITM.One of the Coolest guy's i know.)everybody's pet.He had a Huge set-up with two-three hanging pots n stuff.Amazing flowers.To my right,Asha,counterpart of Atheendra in the other section.Similarly breathtaking flowers.In the middle,me,with a bunch of squashed flowers!Intimidated?!No!I called the judge over and proudly showed him my collection.And ran off pleased as he didn't seem to spend much time on mine :).


And loads n loads more of fun stuff.Feels great to remember n write such stuff.I'm sure you guys must have had similar experiences...share them in the comments! :)

Whew!!! Came across your blog, while surfing through web randomly. This is superb :D

I remember, once when I was in 10th and was talking to the chap sitting next to me in civics class. The teacher caught me and asked me what I was doing. I promptly told her that I was singing. Got expelled for a day =))

BTW, I liked your widget and am using it now. :)
