Winning the wackiest convo trip award

Disclaimer: Whatever is said in the article is a figment of the writer's imagination. Not even Experts are advised to try it.

DAY 0
"It's a beautiful day.. don't let it get away"..  I told myself as i hurried over to the taxi waiting outside to take me to the airport (note: refer this http://platterology.blogspot.in/2013/12/not-to-promised-land-again.html for the background story). The flight was in 2 hours, and the last 6 hours were made to strike a deal with the manager to make it happen ... in the name of love-for-my-college. I could hear friend's yelling my name as i "SHerlOCK" them. I could hear my ex-gf telling that she does not care about me making such a "WHOA" sized entry. I could hear beer mugs tinkling, lighters flashing, music pumping and that's how it was meant to be. That's how i thought what 17k worth of tickets will bring me. Infinite Stardom.

DAY 3
"So the convocation is finally over. Had a good time (smiley)"... "Just that had i told mom i was coming or atleast called her i wouldn't have been left outside my house for 9 hours from the 12 hours i had allotted for "surprising" my mom only to realize that she had a school function and she couldn't be reached until its over. "But anyway, had a good time (sighing smiley). Will have 5 bottles of water in my flight back to bangalore to make up for the remaining worth of tickets"

DAY 2
"Oh Fuck! its 17th January"
"But today will be different, I always have a place among the bijuli bibhaaga" ... So gate crashing my electrical tattva party ?? Yeah baby.
(At the party when i enter to make a shock entrance)
Random-guy-on-the-mic: "We celebrate the 1st anniversary of Mr. and Mrs My-ex-gf" . And suddenly the spotlight falls on me (totally out of sorts here 'i am'). Well the people stopped for the moment shocked to see me. Some made instant welcome-home faces but i could still see the creases on forehead. I expected the blaring music to stop like in movies but even that didn't happen and honey singh was still stuck in the blue eyes for a time that seemed like eternity.
Me: "Oh Dear! its 17th January" (what i said, what i meant is up there)
Someone: (whispering) "Since we didn't know you would be coming so we didn't book a place for you, enjoy everything but please pay your share to me"

DAY 1
"So what if the flight got delayed by 7 hours? So what if i missed my train to college? General is always the quota for us" . "Shall i reach the station and call the juniors/friends to pick me up?" . Yup that sounds good, i would shock them out of their sleep to pick me up (Bono sings "the saints' are coming")
12:30 am
"Oh the kids must be tired partying since evening, may be that's why they aren't picking up". Anyway its a good thing because me reaching college will be a total surprise. I'll love the look on their faces.
01:30 am
"Wake up suckers it's me. Wake up!!!! " .Benaam Badshahs are stoned and sleeping."Where are the others?" the Ruffians are in Moksha. "There goes the jinglers of clubs". "Gulti zone doing the lungi dance" "Kaushalites booking an auto and 10 stuffing in each." And Bhubaneswar zone is in ruins. Luckily a joint comes around for me and "Bang.. What an entry"

DAY -1
"Shall i book the tickets".. "What a surprise it will be" .. "just 17k?? friends and college and home coming - priceless"..
Let me roll up one and book the tickets.

peace,
"Wandered-Lost-Crazy"
