Livin Da Vida Loka
"Living Dangerously", thats what I have been doing for the last two months ....
First things first, I have "Cast Away" my solemate after an intimate 2 week bonding.
Yes..... I took out the cast in two weeks much to the concern of many wellwishers and envy of some "men-in-cast" club members. Having taken rest for a good one week , I had begun experimenting with mobility in the second week, the pinnacle of which was a TT match with CK where I realized that it's about time "mein apne pairon pe khada ho jaoo" ... and Presto !!
My advice to anyone who has a ligament injury .... get yourself into a "Hard-Cast" for a couple of weeks immediately, dont experiment with a crepe bandage ... Period.
And if the pain gets too much, you can find solace in Smirnoffomisin.
Some insightful comments on my plast include ...
"Don't fall for the trick" - from a person who knows better
"Start Running, kiRUN"
"Get out of SV1"
"You suck Lame Duck"
and the toned down ... Get well soon ...
The ISB authorities awere helpful enough to order in a new "Manual" wheelchair about 10 days into my injury as we had run into a wheelchair contention .... following 3 simultaneous "Langde Tyagi's" on campus ..... But thanks to Jaggan's wonderful nature we were able to circulate it pretty well.
But I should commend my friends for the wonderful support they gave me throughout the ordeal, right from helping with food supplies, to the "shoulders to lean on", to the "eventful drives" all dripping with genuine concern for my well-being !!! And all this while I had kept my folks at home in the dark, to lessen their concern and Kall-frequency !!!!
When I finally broke the news at home after my cast came off ... my dad was in one of his silent fits of rage at my apparent indifference ..... But I belive in sharing Joy ... not misery !!! Sorry ... but thats me !!!
The past two months have also seen me explore the deapths and heights of several emotions which I never knew existed inside me ....... All for the good, and I'm just happy for myself !!!
Irrespective of what life has in store for me in the future..... I am happy for just having gone down that road !!!
The third "dangerous" thing I am into right now is penning one more of my blogs, when the Branding exam is looming large on everybody's pitutary glands !!
Nighmares of millions of "Chikeeta Bananas" raining on Hyderabad and tonnes of "Ola-Ola-Onions" creeping up from the underworld , consume our existence for the moment.
Even as we ransack our creative inwards to erupt with a WOW-WOW answer to the marketing questions, our prof unleashes on us, the one thought which rings to me is --- Buddhe ne ye sab kab padaya tha ? FAF-Guruji ki Jai .....FAF-Guruji ki Jai .....FAF-Guruji ki Jai ..... !!!
Key Takeaway : Chem ko patana mushkil hi nahi, namumkin hai !!
