Mysore trip

For the first time in, I think, 10 years, the school decided to take us on an overnight excursion. The destination was Mysore, and the duration was just 2 days and 3nights. Well, we had some fun, and here goes:

We never slept during the train journey, which resulted in this very comical incident. So with me, in my cubicle, were rouse, rakesh, madhu, b, rahul rangan, sanket joshi, srinivas eswar and another passenger. But out of us, only rakesh had fallen asleep and was on the upper birth. Madhu wanted to play a prank, and took out his tooth paste. He spread paste all over rakesh's face, and quickly sat next to us, and pretended to be in chat with us. Rakesh woke up all of a sudden after 10 minutes, and started swearing loudly. He kept sayin,"Cheap da machan, cheap da machan" and ran to to the wash basin. He came back with water and paste all over his face, and said,"Machi, ippo rombave erriyuthu da. Yentha naay da paste potaan?". We couldnt control our laughter, and all of us bursted out laughing. This woke the copassenger, who shouted at us. "Dae, what man? You study in good school only no? Stupids! Have no manners at all. What nonsense are you doing". This man's english tickled us even more. But we went back to our berths. But we wanted to tease him even more, and didnt want him to sleep that night, as he called us stupids. So we started switching on the lights whenever someone went passed our cubicle, and shouted "Aye aye". So the lights went on and off right on this passenger's face, which irritated this fellow even more. He complained to KSB, who gave him her berth and slept in our cubicle.

In Mysore, we got a nice big room for seven. So we kept our bags and took bath and went for breakfast. But we were informed by the teachers that we have been alloted another room and we had to vacate our room quickly. So we hurried to the room and found that the girls were already in our room. They had opened the closet and found rouse's personals and were laughing at it. Poor rouse!

We were in the bus, and on the way to a temple. Rouse and rtp were sitting together, and were playing with a lighter. There were a few girls sitting in front of them. While playing with the lighter, they had by mistake lit a few strands of a girl's hair, which caught fire. Rouse immediately hit her head with his hand in order to put the flame out. Fortunately for them, the girls were sleeping and were not aware of what happened.
