A Walk Down the Memory Lane

The day was excellent.

Back to the shore where innumerous memories sleep.
Memories that worth a life time...

As planned, we started from Trivandrum by 6.30am.
Biju was little week, he was having headache and fever.
Dinesh bought tickets.

Last night, i had gone for "Hallo" with my friends.
And reached my room only by 12.30.
And by 1.15, while asleep, i had got a msg from Biju, saying he's not sure about next day's journey.

Anyhow, he managed to come.

I was sure he would.
Coz he had never missed one trip.

By 9.45, we reached Kottayam R'Way station.
We watited there for Ekm Girls. They were coming by a passsenger train.
By 10am, Divya, Neenu, Naju and Neethu joined us.
Divya was repeating that she was become "matured".
Neenu was having some marvelous designs all over her pure white Churidar.
Naju showed her new bracelet to all.
Neethus looked "techie" with an N73.

Biju was very weak and he was sitting on a bench.
We moved to him.

Together, we went to Nagambadam Bus Station.
We caught a bus and reached Baker Junction.

From Aryas, we had our breakfast.
Masala Dosa, Plain Dosa and Ghee Roast.

Then, the gals bought some chocolates.
Divya bought a packet of sweets for her LH "chechi".

We caught "St. Maria" from Sasthri Road bus stop.

KK was very crowded.
Familiar places were passing by...
Kanhikkuzhy junction, Anju Anna's house, Manarcad, Annadivayal, 7th mile, 8th mile...

Then...

Nedumkuzhy...

Divya was full of excitement.

This was the first time she was landing there after leaving RIT!

The first difference we noted was Royce channels' new appearance.
Then, some new shops here and there.

Neethu got her chappal repaired from that footwear shop.

We wasted no time as Roise and Suman were waiting at the college with Sumesh Sir.

We walked...

The same road...

The same mood...

The same people, except some;

Still something missing...

We clicked some snaps.

It was a little raining.

We walked...
The same steps that no one knows the count.
Memories streamed through our minds...

Two girls were sitting on that short wall.
Exam time...

Someone asked : "Suunnykkutty, photostat edutho"?
...

New board in front of LH : "Periyar House"

At the stairway to office, Naju hushed: "Shh...."

Sumesh Sir, Roise and Suman were waiting for us.

We followed new rules:
Kept our foot wears on Rack 1.
Then, put our bags on Rack 2.

New rules were displayed.
Also some quotes...
Systems were neatly arranged.

What a change!

Sumesh sir broke out "jokes"; We rated it as "chalus".

Still no one could let him down.
He simply ruled the session.



After chatting for about half an hour, we started our usual "rounds".

We started from the cafeteria.

Two new huts...

A pair was sitting there with some books.
Studying..[?]

We found a stray dog with the brim of a pot around its neck.

Sumesh sir narrated the story ;-)

He added that he had once tried to get that brim away from that dog's neck.

The campus was the same old one.

No change.


Before Civil block, we posed for some snaps.

Neethus brought out her N73.

We walked again...
