PowerCut !!!!

Life is strange. Yeah we all know that. But its especially strange when you realize that some situations which you dread are actually more fun than whatever else you might plan to do. This is not philosophical crap. Its the aftermath of an eventful night. Normally I would have passed the oppurtunity to write about it, but then I came across my wingie's blog and since I felt that his description didn't do justice to the myriad of events, I felt compelled to write my own version, if only to show how aswum life in Kgp really is. The description is actually the transcript of a chat I had with one of my friends today , so do note it might not make for a good reading.

So it was arnd midnight, and all of us ( wingies ) were in our own rooms, jhandaoing on our comps, wen it happenned.

cybermantas: Yeah so well, thr power went out wen we were talking .... u know tht part....
cybermantas: And wen the power goes out.. the whole hall comes alive ... literally
cybermantas: Cos thr is nthing else to do... and no1's asleep yet
cybermantas: And well u can't sleep too... cos thr is no power.......
cybermantas: So all us guys in the wing came out...
cybermantas: We went down to the basky court....
cybermantas: Had a mast bhaat session for like 1-2 hrs types.....
cybermantas: Hoohaa ... bitching abt each other and all.... pulling each other's legs and all....

cybermantas: So we played 6 on 6 khokho

cybermantas: It cudn't have ended becos we were all way too charged.....

cybermantas: Well a 3rd yr guy crashed into a pillar on the edge of the ground.....
