Why guys like girls??

Here are a few reasons why guys like girls....

They always smell good, even if it,s just shampoo.

The way their heads always find the right spot on your shoulder.

The way they take hours to dress, but in the end it's all worthwhile.

How cute they are when they argue.

The way you feel when you see their names on the caller ID after you just had a big fight.

The way they say "Let's not fight anymore," even though you know an hour later. . .

The way they fall into your arms when they cry.

The way they hit you and expect it to hurt.

The way they say ,"I miss you".

The way their tears make you want to change the world so that it doesn't hurt them anymore.

And many more. . . .

Visit to Thirupathi...

                    Well Well well.... Two months of seperation from my blog has disturbed my writing skills a bit.. But now, I'm gonna reuse all by writing skills, ofcourse for the sake of money.. he he he..

                   Here it goes.. Thirupathi is actually the place before Tirumala. Tirumala is the place where The Almighty Lord Venkateshwara resides. My trip to tirumala started on a fine tuesday night. Only my family members were in the trip,Dad Mom Bro nd me... From the beginning we got some mokkai's... 

                #1    As we entered the CMBT one of the buses to tirumala left.. So we waited for another half an hour vetti... 

               #2     We reached there Tirupathi by 1.30 Am. All the buses stopped and they informed that bus will start only after 3...

               #3     Finally we reached Tirumala by 4.. My Dad and brother finished their tonsure duties firt.. We decided to go through Free darshan after seeing a 8 mile queue for 100Rs ticket..

               #4     As we reached the end of freeway we got trapped inside a huge jail by 5 AM... At the entrance of this cage there was a board informing that they will open the door by 2 PM .. how sweet..

               After this we had some luck in our favour... They opened the gate earlier than the time informed on the board.. 12 Noon.. The best thing that you can get in life is a Free Darshan of Lord Almighty at Tirumala.. Luckily our queue got stuck up and we had a good view of lord for more than 2 minutes... Mostly u wil get only 2 seconds as the volunteers will say "Jarugandi Jarugandi..." 

              Finally we finished our trip to Tirupathi and reached Chennai by 8 PM... It was nice to spend a day in a useful way during this vetti period..

First day of our South Indian trip..

                           Well well, it has been a long time since when we finished our south Indian trip. But only today i'm going to share my views and happenings on the tour. The planning of the South Indian trip was done by none other than Vinoth Kumar (Aadu). So lets start about the happy 10 days for the   RAPSTORS.

                                                            DAY ONE

                           According to the plan, it was decided that Me, Venki, nd Sai, have to start from Chennai on the 21st of December. 21 has been a lucky number for us, remember our college tour started on June 21 as well !!!. so according to the plan, Venki came to my house and we both went to the Koyambedu bus stand together.

                           We were not punctual and we reached koyambedu late. There we had to run to catch our bus to NEYVELI. Yes, Our first journey is towards Neyveli, the Power town. Sai did a great job in making the bus wait for us and we started from koyambedu by 1'o clock. The normal travel time to Neyveli is 4 to 5 hrs., but we took some extra time, thanks to the heavy traffic at Kathipara jn. Finally we reached neyveli at 7'o clock.

                          Neyveli, was a little cool by the time we reached that place. We went to S.K’s house. Sai was familiar to his parents as he was there for his in-plant training. We had a good nd heavy dinner at S.K’s house. We wanted to do something in the 1st day itself, so we thought of going for a night show. At that time the new release was BILLA, so everyone opted for it.

                          By the time we are planning to get ready for the movie, one man was fighting hard to make his way into neyveli. He was traveling in three different buses to reach the Neyveli town. We even booked ticket for him, we know that he can make it. But he has not come and the movie was about to start, we were feeling the tension.

                          As tension was so high whether he will make it or not, we were waiting outside the cinema theatre. Then Sai broke the tension, he said “Andha loosukaga wait panna venam da.. Naama ulla poi padam paakalam “ we felt he was right. So me .venki and Sai went inside the theatre to see the movie. As usual S.K being a nallavan waited for him(?) to come.

                          The movie was going on well, the scene that is to come is, Ajith is going to do a 360 in his car. When we saw him do that, we all shouted with joy, with all the amusement going around he(?) entered the theatre with something to eat. He had some snacks in his hand and sat next to me. Can you guess who that “thinni Pandaram will be?” ..

                          Yes, it was Mokka Mukil… he came to the theatre by 10.15 pm. We enjoyed the movie a lot. The funniest thing is that we saw that movie on 3rd day I think so, but there was not even a single whistle or shouting from the audience. Neyveli people are real mokkai…. However, We enjoyed the movie a lot. Then we were traveling the deserted roads of neyveli at midnight. It was a great experience. After reaching home Mukil started to eat.. we turned on the system and started watching movies. We were kalaaiching, laughing, totally enjoying our DAY ONE at S.K’s house….

Next day’s experience will be shared in the next post… Those who await it, do comment… DAY TWO …

An Eye for an Eye...

Nowadays, everyone of us have problem with our eyes. Eyesight is affected mainly due to exposure to harmful radiations. Even worse is that most of the glasses that we wear marks impressions on our nose. Sometime we may look for some cheap glasses, but they may cause some skin problems. In this case we must always go for the best choice in the field of glasses.


Zenni Optical is one such manufacturer of glasses. Since they manufacture the glasses, they provide glasses for us at very low rates. They have some good models of frames, they also have sun sensor (photochromic)lens, bifocal lens and progressive lens. They provide us with best best quality at low rates.
