My Subramanian Trip

It all began with my mothers commitment to get my "sarp dosha" removed. For the unknown this is when someone has killed a snake or was an accessory to the killing of a snake, it makes the gods angry. So my mother wanted me to visit Kukke Subramanya and do a pooja so that luck and fortunes falls into place.
The tour began with me getting up at 6.00 in the morning, we left in our gleaming black swift towards Dharwad. The first coffee break came after the tantalizing khambatki ghat in Satara. The cofee break consisted of Idli Wada Sambhar and cofee, next stop was Dharwad. Reached Dharwad by 13.00 and the relatives there were waiting for us to arrive. Our mami there is famous for her sambhar so it was rice and sambar for lunch which was delicious. After having rested for a couple of hours the night consisted of us guys drinking on the terrace before dinner. By us I mean a couple of cousins and me. The seniors had their party which we are supposed to sit and enjoy them drinking. Offcourse we could not just let them drink and us be sober after all the young guys also have the need to enjoy themselves but we had to do it alone as having booze with the seniors means we in the "list" which is not a very good idea.
The most intriguing part of having alcohol with the cousins is the hiding and drinking it within a time frame of 30 minutes. I have had smaller parties before but this is really really exciting as you know the seniors are in the house, have to finish before somebody comes up and after finishing one has to be super sober trying hard to not let others know about our terrace party.
The morning of 10th Good Friday marked the beginning of our journey towards Subramanya.
This is what our rid looked like, it was a 30 seater mini bus with blue and purple lights in the inside with blaring kanada songs. We left early in the morning at 5.00 to pick up the other relative from the city. In all we were 22 of us with only 4 youngsters and two of them including me were the only ones un-married. The oldies were all my grand mothers brothers, sisters and their families. The first break came is as a pee break on the highway to ankola which connects NH4 with the konkan highway, here is what the road looked like. The roads were good but the traffic mainly composed of stray busses overtaking their ways onto our side of the road.
Reached Yellapura at around 9.00 for breakfast, had good idli vada sambhar with some good coffee. Yup idli wada sambhar is like the defacto breakfast, everywhere in the south you get and its good. The hot breakfast resulted in all of us wanting to empty our stomachs as no was actually able to shit anything at 5.00 in the morning.
The first leg of the trip was from Dharwad to Subramanya directly. Idalunji temple was the first temple enroute, we reached there at around noon believe me when I say this it was really really hot, scorching is the right word. This temple is one of the two temples in
From there next we stopped at Hukadnoor at around 1600 for some tea and snacks. The snacks part was basically divided between all of us, some were asked to make ladoos. We were asked to bring bakery items, things like biscuits cakes and stuff. All those things were used as snacks during the journey in the bus. The interesting thing to mention here is that some of the nanis actually decided to get them selves Gobi manchurian. Now this small portion of manchurian looked like some really scary red shit, they had to have it anyways and so was it.
We reached Dharmasthal at around 1800, you will not belive me when I say this but I actually saw a shiny green Jaguar. No no I am not lying I have pictures to support this. One of the guys from our group knows the owner of this beautiful vehicle and told me that a amount of 78 lakhs was paid to get this car imported from Dubai.
Reached Subramanya at around 20:00 hrs on Friday night. The elders wanted us to have food with them at the temple again which us (by us I mean the youngsters) were not very keen on. So we decided to get our selves a little tipsy. By law they do not sell any sort of liquor or cigarettes or any form of tobacco in the town. But alcohol has its way of being found, has a way to seep up through the ground if the need be. So it was meant to be for us to have a little for the ordeal lying ahead of us the next day.
We were woken up at 5.30 and asked to be ready to move by 6.00. Walked bare foot to the temple got ourselves registered for the pooja, and waited for other to come which lasted for almost hour and a half. We were waiting inside the temple, now that there were thousands of devotees who come from all around the country, this was like one super hot and sweaty place to be in. Once everyone was there, we had to get ourselves a pujari who does the ashlesha pooja. The pujari started his thing taking care of us one at a time. I have the craziest wackiest of relatives possible, one of the mama actually started a conversation with the pujari and it was fun to watch them pull each others leg. Ashlesha pooja is the one which is supposed to take care of the "Sarp Dosha" in ones kundli. Majority of the devotees come here for this pooja and some nice good looking tullu chicks were also present.
All the religious things got over by around 11:00 and by that Sun shining all its glory on us. We the brave ones who had walked barefoot in the morning were not finding it really difficult to walk on the burning tarmac, by time we reached the rooms our feet were red and very close to blisters had started appearing on the foot. Slept for a good two hours after the strenuous ordeal, well prepared dahi rice was served to everyone in their rooms. An approximate of 4 people were put up in one room, accompanying me and mom were Vasu Mama and his wife. Vasudev Datar is the younger brother of my grand mother. He is the eldest male living in the family tree after my nani.

Having slept in Dharmasthal we next headed to Udupi, the magical coastal place which is famous for its Lord Krishna temple and the awesomely hot Tullu chicks. The Krishna temple is actually built the

It is sometimes astonishing how many people here in India can actually believe in this concept of religion. Does it make so much of sense that people are ready to go to any means just to get a glimpse of an idol. Everyone has their own options, choices just find it difficult to digest the fact that one would be willing to give oneself so much of pain just to get blessing. Isn't is supposed to be the other way round, if they put as much of an effort to do better will they not succeed in their endeavours.

Truest Poem Ever

Girls in My life
You ending up with her is a totally different matter. The thing is women always leave a big impression in your hearts, I guess that is how life is. Below I have compiled a small list of girls who left an impression in my life.
Yes, name changed as I would not like to hurt any sentiments here. I absolutely adored this girl, was charming, good looking and was hell of a friend. The most enticing thing about her was that she was more of a guy than a girl, was almost a tom-boy and i loved that about her. The issue here was that their were many like me, who liked her. I was one amongst the many admirers that she had. And I believe she knew this, I think she too liked the attention. Things never materialized between the two of us, but yeah I would like to mention I will never forget about her.
This was the only real serious relationship that I have even been into. She was in my college but in a different department. The first time we met was in an extra "Physics Practical", check out the co-incidence aaye. Both had missed a practical and for some heavenly reason missed the same freaking experiment. And hence we were asked to do the practical together, that is when I met her the first time and believe me when I say this the connection was instant. We knew instantly that we matched mentally, exchanged email address and then there was no looking back. Its been 8 yrs since we have last spoken but still I have a smile on my face remembering the first time I met her. We spoke day in and day out, hung out perenially whenever we were in college. Both of us knew we liked each other, its was like n unsaid treaty. Both knew it but neither of us said it out loud, it was as if "it was meant to be".
After the exams it was the results which triggered the downfall of our relationship. Both of us were hit hard with ATKTs, and the coming semester she went year down because of the number of terms remaining. She came to me one day and said , "My parents know we have been going around and I will not be able to speak with you anymore". I howled pleaded and begged her to give "us" a chance. She was just not ready to accept the fact that she will ever be able to speak to her parents about me and hence saw no point in pursuing this great thing that we had. Till now I am not sure what went wrong, and how but that was without a doubt the best year of my life. The breakup left me shattered, broken and no longer trusted women kind. Shattered and broken I ran into her once over Y!IM and vented my frustrations on her and this would have been easily 3-4 years after the relationship. That was the last time I saw of her, I now realize that maybe she had her reasons and that I shouldnt have vented out on her, but what would I have done. Its been 8 years and I still think about her sometimes. She is now married and settled in the U.S. If ever in the reamining of this excuse for a life I run into her, I would like to tell her how much I loved her then and that she was the best thing that happened to me in my life .
Chapter 6: PR
Having hurt myself inside out, I was looking for a rebound. Having lost all belief in emotional relationships I was desperate to have an affair desperate to have a female in my life again. Belive me when I say this the vacumm created by the departure of the person you love makes you do crazy thigns and leaves you desperate to find someone to fill that black hole.
With a fling in my mind I started going around with a classmate of mine. She was elder to me by a couple of years. I think she fell for me, and I mis used that opportunity for my benifit. I regret having done that but then I was not thinking straight. I ended up hurting this girl very very badly and if I could go back and change things - I would never never do it again.
If you are reading this "I am sorry"
Chapter 7: SD
After having realized how much I could hurt someone. I set on a cautious path to not hurt anybody I would get involved with. There was this girl at my work place, we would always fight an used to despise each other. I had never imagined in my wildest dream about getting involved with her. The whole thing was one big scam, both of us played correct parts, neither of us was serious and had not tied strings around each other. For the first time in my life I had experienced a casual affair.
I had many one date chicks in my life to name a few, my first date was with an super hotie in school. Then there was this school friend with me in college, went out with her a coulpe of times got desperate and proposed. Nothing happened it was just fun. Then there was a mutual friend, I really fancied her, but she was too much of a bitch for me to handle though.
