Meet the strangers

My meetings with strangers always have a story and this one is not an exception!

It was Saturday night. Say about 8.30 pm.

I was walking in MG road, on my way to Shivaji Nagar bus stop.

Usually I leave early from office, but that day work kept me busy until 8! So me and another friend of mine were literally running to the bus stop. It was quite a distance though.

We were walking in the road exactly opposite to Manipal Center. It's usually quite. That day, even worse. Much quieter and dark too. With breezy weather, one tends to enjoy such a walk!

Just then I unusually saw two women dressed in a bizarre way. One lady, quite huge, was wearing a saree with plunging neck line. The other was wearing a normal salwar but that was also quite revealing! Both were standing in the corner of the platform, smiling at all the male drivers in the cars which passed by.

It took me about a minute to sense that they were prostitutes! Honestly, I was scared. I had to pass by them. The lady in the saree gave me a cold stare. I was looking down and ran as fast as I could!

Finally reached the bus stop. Got a seat and phoned my sister and all I had to talk was about her! It's quiet strange, the way they lead their lives!

That was one helluva party!!

I always hated parties.

In my dictionary parties, discs and pubs are one reason for all the men in this world to touch women unnecessarily! I mean they go about touching women all over and they just don't realize how irritating it can get![I know few wannabes do enjoy]

Loud music that can tear apart my ear drum, the area filled with smoke and dancing or rather falling on each other is something I just don't prefer. That's one of the reasons why I avoid going to parties! The other being me not a part of this 'Oh so, wannabe gang'! [Oh God, Thankfully]

When my editor asked me to cover this party last night, I was shocked and surprised. I mean, they sort of know I am not this party material who would jump and grab the invitation! But still, they chose me! I had no choice but to go. They gave me an offer of taking friends along. Thankfully, I had guru. She has always been there when I needed her the most. Be it studying together, shopping or during times of emergency, like this one!

Me and guru decided to leave to Fuga [Supposedly, one of the hottest taverns in Blore] and be there at about 8.30 pm! We met there and was denied entry! LOL... We had to tell them that we are from the press and behave like this 'I am -very- interested -to -cover- ur- party' sorts!

Yay, they finally let us in! I went in to find a world by itself. You walk in the red lit glass floor and almost feel like stepping inside a place that never existed before! Fuga is awesome. Has about two floors, a pretty moderately sized dance floor and a pretty decent lounge bar!

Ok, now this is completely new to me! Seeing girls in uneasy outfits, weird men nodding their heads in a weird way, scary crowd, men and women tumbling all over the place and what not!

Guru and me got a drink for ourselves and set to the first floor! Since its been long since we met, we had loads to speak. But with loud music hitting our ear drum, we barely heard each other!

We spent quite some time gazing at those hot men and yeah a few women also ;-) and headed to the dance floor. I saw Nikhil Chinnapa, DJ Ivan and DJ Markus Schutz playing feet tapping music that made the crowd dance like never before! The place was chock-a-blocked with young chaps going boogie woogie!

We decided to move out after sometime. Silence is what I get! Moving out from a noisy, busy and boisterous place to the world 'I' belong to!

Oh, Freaking Lord, whatte party it was!!


*Jigging quietly*
Shar!

Post Script:
I don't know now if I like or dislike parties. All I can advice you is, please take someone with you while partying! NEVER go alone unless you hate people! If your a spectator, have a drink, sit quietly and move out like how I did! :P

Louing eett!!

Yes, am louing it! But louing what ?

My internship in Bangalore! I must say it's going in great guns! Never had a internship like this before. When compared to the last one I did in ANI, this one is rocking!

Just imagine you write all day and keep filing stories! And write what ? Features all day! Write on topics that you always don't talk much about and keep tickling your mind always to get new ideas! Isn't that lovely ?

A cubicle for an intern, a nice cute comp, no dress code (It doesn't matter anyways, am more of a kurta person!), a nice boss (unlike my previous boss! Gawd, how much I hated him! :P), a nice team of colleagues who don't throw attitude... wah wah... my dream work environment. Am sure GOD is making a note of it!

Hope it goes in great guns till this month end!
Cya all later! Will post soon!
Ore the loues,
Shar! :)
