NOT SO FOND MEMORIES..

Sunday, March 15, 2009 · 3 comments

Was just thinking about inter iit(=>which is the sports competition between all IIT's!)....not many fond memories from those 17 days...
the rigorous camp preceding the tournament...
the losses we suffered in the tournament leading to our ousting in FRONT of our home Crowd...
me cupping(=>playing like an idiot) majarly(=>to the maximum extent possible) on my birthday(in a crunch match!!)!!
all these factors just combined exponentially to make it a forgettable december for me...
buy,as they say,no time can be a completely bad time!!!
i do have a couple of fond(more importantly ,FUNNY!) memories..

We had march-past practice everyday after our respective sports practice..
this was supposed to be the first year when march-past would also count for points in the overall championship..
it was really painful...
but,one memory really remains in my head...
on the 1st day of practice,most of us wore our sandals to practice for march-past....
a few air force officers had been called to put fundaes(basically,pain) to us on good march-past ...
the officers got pissed on seeing us in sandals..but,they were not the kind of people who would shout out or express their displeasure vocally...
so,they went about explaining to us the point that we had to wear shoes and not sandals to march..
just then,one of the officers told- "If you don't wear shoes,when you stamp your foot down after every step,you will get a SPERM"
HEARING THIS,
Our whole contingent(which was anyways looking for excuses to laugh and waste time) burst out laughing!!!!!

the second funny memory is that of one of my friends getting embarassed in "public" thanks to me...
we were in the mess...he was standing in line behind me...
i was standing with my shoulder to him...
by "mistake",i turned around and my elbow hit his shoulder(i am supposed to be tall!!)...the poor guy lost his balance....he was resting on the railing ...he toppled on it and went into a monkey like posture ...the part of his legs below his knees was on one side of the railing and his body was on the other side with his hands tightly gripping the railing...
instead of helping him,i just stood there and started laughing(thereby,directing even more attention at my friend..).

i felt bad later on and "apologized" to him by teasing him even more about that incident!
but,i must admit ,i did feel bad..(albeit in a funny way)




btw,for all those who did'nt get it...the SPERM which the air force officer was talking about was actually a SPRAIN!!
