suman ma'am had this weird way of waking us up... rather all 3 of them did.. they would go ''gooOood mOrning... goOoOd morning... gOOD morning... wake up, wake up.. fats, fast fast... oye, good morning... we have to leave soon... get up... pack up your tents... LNT (leave no trace) incharge, where is it?... good morning... " and they would not stop... they would go on and on anddd on... i dont know what fun they saw in irritating us... and waking us up at like 6... that sucks... this was for the first time that for 8 days in a strecth i woke up soo freaking early... i would get up late for school also, 6 is freaking early...
half groggily i woke up... harshita, shardooli and i went into the wilderness, *tada*..we did the unpacking...i had a lil problem packing the sleeping bag, but i managed it anyway...had to.. lol... ;)
once i as done with packing all the stuff back, including the biscuit packets and cake packets and also few of baked beans tin, when everyone was soo into themseleves, doing this and that, i have no idea, from where i had this fit.. fit of home-sickness... trust me it sucked...i hate it. for when i wanted to be outta my home, and i WAS<>
once their packing was done, todoos starting moving, leaving harshita, rachit, mayank, anupam and me at the end...we found that two spoons, the stoves, cooking oil, all the garbage and what not was left behind... it really made me mad at those guys... i mean no repect for all the stuff they are leaving and we had to carry the remaining stuff... errr!!
that day, our trek was of 8km! 8 KILOMETRES OF UPHILL... FREAKING STEEEEPPPP UPHILL!!!!! AND I EVEN LOST MY WATER BOTTLE!! :(( AND THERE WAS NO WATER POINT ON THE WAY... :(((
the beginning of it was hard, the steepest ever... i found mayank in the midway of it, resting.. he gave me the reason to rest as well... once the peeps behing us caught up, we started moving...the trek following that was horrible... we were again in the middle of jungle...we found a burnt tree lying on the ground and we could detect the smell, as though the fire was recently extinguished...and it was due to that fire we saw the glowing the previous night.. limits!!
at our first resting point, we stayed at that place for like more than 30 minutes... it became hotter and hotter plus, the way was, wayyyy uphilll... later on it got damnn steep and narrow!! very narrow...
mayank, poor he, he had a very tough time uphill.. he was carrying about 80-90kgs that included his own weight and the tent as well... we all cheered for him... gave him a round of applause and did all that, that could encourage him to move on... even though he was in imense pain and was exhausted beyond limit, he didnt stop...
it is very very veryyy tough job, for it is beyond words to explain that how the trekking was... i cant put it in words to describe how i felt... experience, is the word for that...
once we reached a good height... the view was a distraction.
as i marched on the narrow path, walking uphill, a mountain, there were many mountain peaks on my right, cold breesze blowing on my face... it was beautiful... pretty and totally out of the world.. well it got better... not the view my condition, and not exactlt better, worse, lol... i was much beyonddd the word ''exhausted''... i was on the verges of collapsing... suman ma'am, harhsita, arshya, anupam all ahead.. shardooli and mithali behind me and i'm in the middle of a mountain on a green field i can see the resting point.. i was sooo freaked out... i had no power, no strength and no courage to move, i became that worse...
we reached... we did...
it felt like we were on the ''flat''top of a mountain, named Rangali Top... i againg smashed my bag on the ground and laid down.. as i tried to get back to my senses, i found this place was bodered by a wall of stones... huge area... there were two huts in the area... belonged to the whites in time pre-independence time. there was a valley of white flowers, which looked amazing... behind the huts were many mountains... beyond the white flower valley, was tree where green, red colth were hanged and there was also a potrait og God and Godess kept.Further,was a gate sort, beyond which was a jungle that was actually the girl loo area.. lol...
there, we all sat in the shdae area of a hut... we were sooo darn hungary... starving, as though we havent tasted food for ages!!! i opened up 1 biscuit pakcet out of three... that made me remain with 2 biscuit packets and one of chocolate cake ... *this was the secret*
so i said, we were sooo hungry that, we started eating sugar... we also came to know on our back, those 5 guys who had already reached and diya had EATEN THE FRINKING CHOCOLATE POWDER!! THAT WAS A DAMN 500gm TIN!!! ghosh! and they feven finished another halaal tin!! *annoying* while sitting and talking kartikay and bharat came up with this accapella thing for singing the sixer song and make anupam dance on it... lol...
now, we were deciding to open the secong last tin of halaal or not since majority of us didnt have and few of us were yet to reach... however we did open up.. and out of 17 halaals, i ONLY GOT ONE!!! meann people...
the remaining troop reached like, an hour later than we did, which included rishika, mayank, naveen sir, kuber sir, rachit and sanya! these guys had a tribal make up on them.. leaves on their head... the black charcoal from tree massaged on to their face! ha... these guys reached, we were relieved! :)
after another 20 minutes the other, ''killer rafters'' group arrived! it was a great reunion, for many of us! that evening i had my fits on.. i kept on laughing, going here and there... i messed a lil bit of mattar paneer that day for lunch, but mayank the great saviour, didnt make it a big deal and saved the day! that day while rohan, diya, shardooli, harshita, anupam, ashray, rohan and me were relaxing, we found out that a big game of truth and dare was on, on the other side... the highlight of the game ''shivani was asked to lip kiss diksha and she did it...'' i dont think i really should say anything, for it was their wish to do so, however, i think these guys are least bother about their dignity or its probably my NOT showing open-mindedness for i aint from that ''class'' of school... i believe maturity comes with time and for these guys, its much before ''time''!! :) who cares, anyway!
that evening i went to the water point, supposedly 200 metres downhill.. a tap sort from which water came as though it was forced to take a route via that tap.. it was freaking slow.. i had gone with ashray, rohan, rhea and ranya later joined by aditya and some other guy! since we had to go downhill, i even slipped once... i swear, those pine needles are worse than a peel of banana!! :P
that evening after a bashing from our instructors we finally did, pitch our tents.. we had amazing matar paneer and rice in lunch, courtsey : Mayank! :)
for dinner, we had daal and rice, courtsey : bharat and kuber sir! :) also naveen sir... that night was much cooler... and once in our pullovers, there was a huge debate ove whose going to sleep outside... mean... guys slept outside and we girls in tent... before that, we had our ritual of listening to ghost stories narrated by naveen sir...
so that very area also had its story... it was believed that every night you could hear howling of a girl when ever breeze flowed and if you go beyond the perimeter of the area, that is the wall, if werent allowed to go after dark for the ghost of that girl might attack... and why? well that is part of the ghost story which i didnt listen to.. again, i was lying on the ground with many of my friends around me, and me with the fingers in my ears, all set to hear nothing but probably my own voice and close my eyes...hahahaha!!!
the horror tale was probably really scary and hence there was againg a big quarrel of who will sleep in the middle... trust me, i'm clever at this... i told them i'll sleep in the corner the next day... and what not...
ulitmately my most tiring day of the trip ended...
*******
yesterday, i think was the best tuesday, till now...apart from waking up early in the morning, aerobics was fun... even though all the way saloni and me talkied about nothing but FOOD!! god gracious!! here we're trying to eat less, very difficult i must say!! anyway, so sadhika came at my place... and luckily, fortunately, sadhu and saloni clicked together, for it is always a lil difficult mixing up your friends from two different groups!!
we went to Lajpat in late afternoon... there at McD, i had chiken nuggets! and they were delicious! first time i had was in London and now they are in india baby... awesome! lol
and then we'd shop a lil bit... i bought this amazing neck piece, a lil long but really hawtt! *ka-ching*
via Auto, we went to Amar colony. The amar colony ccd sucks... they dont serve you... we sat there for like 15 minutes... only 3 table were filled.. the waiter served and heard to other 2 and not us... we enjoyed the free ac, did beat the heat for a while and then walked off... we had a paneer roll... and thats it... we came home around 5... tired.. had water sat.. clciked more pictures... happy day,good day...in the eve i did chat with a long lost friend of mine.. practically, i'd hear from him after a very long time..
in the morning i felt like cursing saloni, because of her i ended up in this aerobics thingie and now, it feels really annoying to get up soo early ... however this assures me a good sleep at night... now i have started sleeping early baby... anyway, how does it make a difference... and now at home, i watched a movie, ''down to you'' cute, rom-com movie... ate cherries and melon... so apart from watching tv and sitting online i practically did nothing...and i wanted to to isolate... isolate from everything i did... but my *shitty* laptop suppose to be my saviour for now.. i have no idea how i did ever survive with out it...i still do want to go away from everything... just as my sister says, ''i'm addicted''..
sherlyn's result came in Panchkula region... she got 77%
my congratulations to Naomi, she did realyy well.. and also to Shalomi!!
... and now i'm freaking scared for my result... earlier i was very chilled out, no excitement nothing, and now i'm scared... i have no idea how will it come out to be and then, when i think about it..it gets worse... cbse people are becoming like those reality tv show people who will raise your heat beat to the limit , make us sooo restless and then once they are satisfied to see the anxeity in us, they'll announce it...!!
gracious!!!
