A wednesday: The wonder day

Failures and lessons often go hand in hand. A holiday package to USA as prize money looks lucrative to drive you an extra mile, and yet disappoint when fate refuses to smile at you. Then comes the crushing time for those poor, little and cute dreams of how would you celebrate after winning. Life hasn't been different for me either, as most of times I have been through same cycle. Over time you realize to enjoy those dreams as much as you can and make them grandiose than past one. Today, I essay one of the dreams which I lived in those moments awaiting results after a torrid 3 days of hard work.

Smart dude was furiously transfixed on computer screen, doing the best in his department of editing and calculative thinking(even I wonder how did he managed to get these two contrasting skills together). Gold lady was busy translating the ideas scribbled by me and adding them a value of simplicity and validating the logic of every line. A food parcel order at night, coupled with smart dude airing the rumor of ghost in lab(prank call again) to scare gold lady looked to be the highlight of the night. But the night was yet to finish.

Once again gold lady's adventure mind
got us to a super cool morning trip
to witness sun rise 

"Lets go to see sun rise" popped up a lively gold lady. 

Surprisingly our Smart dude managed to pull off his inertia and agree to the plan. And once again, they were kind to pack me in to the car. The surprise had just started. It was gold lady who was driving the car!!! Being a mechanical engineer made her escape from my suspicion as I was confident that she would pull it through. And..she did it with a style by defying the potholes, cruising through the early morning rushers and maneuvering smartly on tricky chicanes.  The car stopped at end point.

If ever you wonder to see the sun rise or sun set in this education hub, hang out here. Its a perfect place to rejoice the first sun rays in the early morning, bid adieu to night, feel the urge to eat breakfast before brushing teeth and have ultimate wish to sleep after returning back.

Water Splash! Gold lady attempts to splash
water on Smart dude as he poses for camera
After an initial photo session, the trio decided to head back. Little again did I knew that fate had one more surprise as smart dude drove us to Arabi Falls. Its a small fall with perfect ingredients of early morning ambiance, a thick mix of fog to cloud the entire forest separating two valleys and open the floodgates of adventure within self.

Once again, gold lady took the initiative of spinning the yarn of adventure. We splashed water, exposed our rock solid legs to the cool water of the fall, froze some amazing memories and headed back to campus.The mood was strong enough to instigate the adrenaline of adventure in me, as we splashed water on each other. Smart dude, using his calculative mind, had prepared for contingency and had carried an alternative piece of clothing to look fresh.

We returned back to campus and were treated with Puri(yes, it was wednesday morning). Little do I need to say then how much did I enjoy sleeping on holiday. The results of the competition(which we were working on lab) did not had our names, but yet I felt as if I won something in this loss. I realize today what I won was an amazing time with two good pals.
