I wish I could stand beside you and hold your hand. I wish I could spend some time with you. I wish I could accompany you when you go out. I wish I could make you laugh when you were in tears. I wish I could catch up with you everyday to share it all with you. I wish I could sit all day long with you looking into your eyes and enjoying your smile. I wish I could get a destiny where you throw tantrums and I placate. I wish I could witness your cuteness every time that funny gesture and naughty mime. I wish I could make you feel the same for me what I feel for you. I wish I could have at least some importance in your life I wish I could at least be your friend.

Am I lost?

്Sometimes .... it happens

“This will hardly take ten minutes”, assuring Namu I started CPU। I and Namu had decided to participate in a competition and we were in computer center for the online registration.

“If server is running properly”, Namu replied.

“After all it holds the record of being the largest technical contest. Sometimes network problems occur”, I said but this time my voice was a bit louder to attract the other students in computer center towards us. All this was to make them interested in our activity. We feel special if someone shows interest in our activities. So I felt like letting others know about our venture.

Five seconds passed. There was no response from computer screen but a ‘OOPS’ sound from the girl sitting beside us. Then came the Windows signature tune and her screen displayed message,” Saving your settings”. She looked at us surprisingly. Her surprised look suddenly transformed into an irritated one. Her look was like -”Fool didn’t you look at the CPU”? Perhaps we interrupted her pleasant chats or was she busy approving friend requests on facebook? Whatever was she busy with but definitely she was not pleased with us.

We quickly realised that the CPU of her computer was kept on our desk and our computer had no CPU। While I was turning my computer on actually I turned her system off. This realization embarrassed me deeply. How could I be so inattentive?

“No it was not my fault. Anybody could do this. Who kept this CPU here? Seriously, I didn’t mean to do this। You could have already told me about this.” All kind of excuses ran through my mind but only five letter word “Sorry” could come out of mouth. This might have relaxed her as she restarted her computer. As no other system was unoccupied we stepped out of Computer Center avoiding further embarrassments.

Rs. 10 per two seconds

It was a usual Sunday evening. I was just chatting with my friends. One of my friends came to my room and asked if I could accompany him to city. My college is away from city. Generally I rarely go to city and on Sundays it is almost impossible but for friends you have sometimes to do what you never do.

I got ready and put some money in my pocket. Actually I do not keep wallet with me. I prefer to put money in my pocket. I am hardly bothered to purchase a new purse. We reached the road in front of "Baba ka Dhaaba" and took an auto to city. Here in Sultanpur you'll find large three wheelers diesel auto. On our way to Super Market there is a large ground. On that day it was some fair where you find typical "mela shops". At the entrance of park, my friend spotted one of our madams in Jeans and top.
This sight changed our whole plan. We had decided to go to Super Market but descended a few steps away from there and then came back to the park. For entry you needed to buy a ticket for Rs. 5 per person. At the ticket counter we decided to purchase ticket and without any second thought I handed 10 Rs. note to the man at the counter to get two tickets.
The ladies were at some girlish shop purchasing some thing for them. All I could notice was just she was our respected Ms. Vineeta Mam of English with her two other colleagues. A lady whom I see daily in a formal dress and have some kind of respect for her was in Pink top and blue Jeans in front of me. Pretty she is, but that was an entirely different experience of having a look on her. It is difficult for you to stare a girl in public places for more than a few seconds and it goes much difficult if she is your teacher. My glances lasted for two seconds and then we hurriedly left the park without enjoying any other thing there.
Our whole visit was just of one minute but we witnessed something really very lucky. With this feeling I left the park thinking about 10 Rs. for 2 seconds.

Vivekanand Rock Kanyakumari

Kanyakumari is situated at the fag end of the southern coasts of India. During his visit to India, Swami Vivekanand stayed here and meditated for consecutive three days and three nights on a rock which is about 500 meters away from land. I also visited Kanyakumari during my south india tour organised by school.


To reach to the rock motorboats are hired. A motorboat takes about 150 people to the rock in one go. The motorboat takes you to the Sant Tiruvalluar's rock also which is situated nearby the Vivekanand rock. You purchase tickets and wait for your turn. Group tours are given concessions also.
There are Vivekanand Mandapam, Vivekanand Memorial, Kanyakumari Devi temple and many other temples, stalls on the rock. The construction of the memorial was started in 1964 which was completed finally in 1970 by the efforts of Eknath Ranade. There is a "Shreepad Shila" on which there are holy footprints of devi Kanyakumari. On the same rock is "Vivekanand Mandpam". In this mandpam all the pillars are made of granite weighing 13 tonnes. In the center there is a six feet tall statue of swami Vivekanand made of bronze. The most important is "Dhyan Mandapam". It is a dark room in which there is a large enlightened "Om" in front and people meditate here. The whole atmosphere is made spiritual by the chantings of "Om". Sitting here for a few minutes highly energizes you. There are many stalls also where you can purchase a lot of memorable objects and literature related to swami Vivekanand.
A little away from this rock there is another rock where a very large statue of "Sant Tiruvalluvar" is located. Standing at the foot of the statue you can not look up to the head without tilting yourself up to sixty degree. Sant Tiruvalluvar was a great poet and philosopher of tamil. His teachings are still respected by tamilians.
Standing at the rock, looking around the Indian ocean is really a very pleasant experience. The waves of ocean striking to the rock generates a very sweet music. The whole atmosphere is so tempting that you don't want to get back. Windmills at the bank, sailors in search of fishes, ships and gentle breeze decorates the whole scenario excellently.
You must visit Vivekanand Rock at least once to feel the pleasure and to have the blessings of devi Kanyakumari.
