The Crazy Class Trip (1)

We started off for the station with plenty of time to spare. It was 2.30 in the afternoon and we had at least an hour and a half’s wait at the station, before our train to Bangalore was due. I started texting as soon as we left school. Many of my friends outside of school had been warned to keep their phones nearby in case I was dying of boredom and needed rescuing.

The hostelites (slang. Meaning students staying in the hostel.) , many of them seeing ‘proper food and drink’ (eg: Lays, Pepsi, etc.) after many days, rushed towards the only shop on the small station.  A minor problem with the zips of two bags was soon solved with a combined group effort. I’m pretty sure we scared all the people at the station with some crazy posing for photos and loads of horrible jokes (most of them made up by yours truly).The train arrived and we all climbed in. It was quite an amusing scene because believe it or not, it was the first time three of the girls were travelling by a train.

I stayed up past one in the morning, reading ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’, because my darling friends were giggling over their respective cells. We reached at 8.30 in the morning and made our way to a miserable excuse for a hotel. After having breakfast and changing we started off for the largest theme park in India- Wonder La. It was quite eventful. A classmate twisting my arm as he thought I was the guy who was annoying him, and then later fainting due to dehydration put me at the top of the ‘Worry, she’s not well’ list.

Shopping at the forum was fun. My friend getting lost in Landmark was funnier. Proving that she was a weakling at Amoeba was the funniest. Oh and then we walked into a shop completely ignoring the ‘Closed’ sign! Well you can’t really blame us. She was high on Redbull and me on an extra large glass of Pepsi (yes I act drunk if I have too much Pepsi or cola.). To my delight the store which sold only candy was still there. We got back at midnight, got one room fiasco sorted out by one, and slept at three, to be woken up at six thirty.
