Adventure......

Adventure and enthusiasm are surely the middle names of my school friends ("only"a selected few along with me of course ). School picnics and educational tours-we used to be out thr...the most notorious of all kids..energetic...sporty...nothing like being girls....we had it in us...enjoyed as if thr was no tomorrow....n we loved it...thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it...n captured some special moments with special ppl to cherish for a life time....
but all of this disappeared once we all parted our ways n took the path of our professional career. College life was nothing like it . I still remember cribbing abt the fact tht we didnt hav picnics in college...how childish can i be...its true..we r ard 800 odd students in one standard...practically impossible..i agree...
but then thrs always a path...if one door closes the other one opens....but it opened a little late..some 2 yrs after i joined podar (for some it still hasn't, u wont understand so forget it) and i'm more than glad tht it did happen....
Podar's Hikers Club!!!! Rescuers!!!!
aah...for the first two yrs..thts in junior college i just read their posters n notices tht they were treaking this place n tht place....thanks for my other pals tht i cudnt be a part of it.....but no regrets.....
Fybcom......rock on...i took notice of this terms 1st hike...to a place called "TUNG" somewhere near Lonavala. We were three of us standing in front of the main entrance of the college when i read it out loud to the other two. One supported me while the other mocked at me. The time i read it i was confident to be a part of it this time..it was a "now or never" kinda situation for me.
n i knew i wasn't alone...the Lok Puram Public School's blood runs in three of us...myself,Abha and Swati. If we once say "yes" we abide by it n never let others down...
I myself was more than enough for me to be a part of the hike. But i was even hell bent on getting my friends pitch in and experience the unexperienced.....
Regretfully not many were inclined. I approached Pooja, Alisha, Rohit, Achintya, Siddharth, Mukul n a few others...besides a faint ray of hope from Pooja n Alisha i was let down by others.
but still tht was g8t..truly...
but thts not the end of it....these gurls also made me beg them to come....n finally only Pooja n Gloria turned up.
Yahoo msgr is quite a boon i must say....i convinced many ppl here...n got to know from Yash tht the hike was something i shudnt be missing for anything n anyone at all.She boosted me more. n then i went on convincing Romil and cos he had some of his other cls friends coming along he agreed as well.
It was such a relief see ppl pay tht rs 200 fees for the hike..cos i knew once thts done thrs no looking back....hehehe...(was being a little selfish...hehe)
n then wat continued was sheer excitment, fun n a some mismerising memories for life....


(the pre hike hallavu was also an experience within itself...this post has been already long enough so i'll blog abt the Hike in the next post..naah wait may be i'll require one more post to blog abt the day,the nite of which we were to leave.... :)
