New world...

I was lying on my mat to get a good sleep. Thoughts were passing through my mind. My watch beeped suddenly. It was 1:00 am. It made me more tensed for not getting sleep. How can I sleep today. After all its the first day I am staying away from my parents. It was the first day of my Navodaya school life. As I stepped my right leg in to the campus with my parents, I didn't think it was so tough to stay away from them who had cared for me for the past 11 years. After registration and allotment of hostel, we walked throughout the campus to see its inner beauty. My parents left me after some time.I went up to the gate to bid them good bye. I didn't miss them much as they just went away from my eyes. I was in an eager to spent my life on the new campus. But as I walked back to the hostel, I could realize the situation I was in. All were new faces. Only a known person in that campus was Shanooj, my cousin. I went to Shanooj and stayed with him. He was just two years senior to me on the campus. But my hostel warden had instructed us, the new students to stay away from seniors and to be always together. So I had to leave Shanooj on his way. Again I was lonely with my batch mates. Now I have to be friendly with all these guys. I couldn't choose whom to start from. We always had to be together in hostel, mess and also at ground. We had keep line while walking. It was just like a military camp. When I ate food, I started to miss my home. The food was very crucial. Only a few dishes. That too in a measurement. After eating the food we had to wash our own plates. After reaching back to hostel, I could make some knowledge of my friends. We discussed different things. We had to fetch water for bathing. There was a big queue and only a single pipe that too miserly in providing water. We had to wait a long time, waiting without buckets in our hands. Now I started to love my home for being so much equipped. We had to live a very different life on that day. By night we could get the activities and limits of the campus. Everything inside the campus had limits. It made me very sad. I couldn't sleep well that night. I was throughout thinking of my parents and home. I wanted to go home urgently. My eyes wet when I realized that I would have to miss my beloved parents for a long time. I kept on looking the time. Slowly I slept, to start the next day with a new life which was the way of my future...

Passanger Train...

Next train is at 2:40 pm. The man at the enquiry counter said. I looked at my watch. Another two hours more. Imperceptibly he added. There is a passenger train at 1:15 pm from the second platform. I was relieved hearing him, and I went back to the waiting room to join Alex. We shifted to 2nd platform taking our belong with us. We were on our way back to college after attending a marriage at Kottayam. The train came within 10 minutes and we got a seat next to the window. There was no rush in the compartment. Alex was a bit tired and he climbed on to the berth to get some sleep. I sat lonely watching the passengers at the platform. Actually I my eyes searching for some college beauties. The platform was really busy although the it was the peek of the noon. A cool breeze came seldom to get rid of the hot climate. I was sleepy and so I was resting my head on to the window frame. I don't remember when I fell in to the sleep. I looked at my watch to check the time. I have slept for alm...

Weigh what you Read

The game was in good progress. We had started to create a formation for making the goal. Each player had started to mark a player at the opponent and it made the game more interesting. It was just a 12 year herd playing a time pass football match. The ground was really tough for us to cop up with, the contour was fluctuating for the full length. The match was interrupted suddenly and I saw Arif and Ajith flooding to the right corner of the ground. I shouted at them and asked to get back in to the match. We got hardly an hour a day for games in the busy schedule of Navodaya,my school. I understood they were running a bit seriously, and i joined them. I saw someone sitting on the steps laying the head on to the lap. Afsal was standing right next to him. He was consoling him. As I advanced to the spot I could identify that it was Sadique and found he was crying. A millions of conclusions came to my mind. May be he might not be well, or he might had heard a bad news from his parents, even ...

Luis Figo- Someone to admire!!

I was in 9th standard. It was the season when I had started to love football. And so I had started to see many major games on TV. I got familiarised with many teams and players. I enjoyed World cup and many good tournaments. One day Aneesh, my classmate told me about Figo. He said that Figo is a great player on the mid-fields. Later I saw his game and was amazed on his skills. I became a true fan of him and kept on watching his games. It was Euro'04. That too in Portugal. Al though I was a supporter of England, I wanted to see Figo win. Watching Portugal's game I thought they deserved the cup. They made their way on to the finals. Greece. The other finalists. On analysing their path I could find that they had just luckily entered to the finals. Praying for Portugal I sat infront of the TV. Figo played an amazing game. Made many good chances. But all his efforts were in vain. Again the luck has helped Greece. They won the game on the goal of Charisteas, with a last minute...
