When Swift performed like Hummer

In our un-official parking today an event took place where I had to make my Swift perform as if it was a hummer. The parking today was open and the contractors had taken a day off, there was chaos and everyone was worried about the parking space and people were parking their cars wherever the got space to. I was lucky as I was early that I got a proper parking space, parked my car there and felt like a king.


After a couple of hours or so I just peeped out of the window of my recreation room which looks directly into the parking slot to check if my car was ok. I saw there was a car parked right at the tail of my car with a space of just 5 feet. My car was staked against a high heap of mud and the only it could be driven was in back gear. I was shocked to note this and was even wondering how can someone who is so very well educated park his car so insensibly.


I could do anything but to wait for my time to leave and just hope that the car blocking my car's movement go away and i get a through passage. But as time passed, the jungle around my car increased to a level that I was sure I will have to wait till late night to get my car out. We went there at our usually office timings only to find another man facing the same situation, his car was just next to mine. He had an old indica and he made it jump here and there, let it fall and get all bruised up and drove it away. I was watching all this and did not at all want to take the same route.


We waited and tried different options like trying to push the cars in the back lane bit further so that my car gets a passage to move but all that was of no help. We decided that the only way out was to make it jump the lumps of mud which were up to 3 feet high from the ground. There was no way my car could get through it. So we called up a few workers to actually flatten the land around so that the car can have some passage to move. After an hour or so of immense tension and precaution i was able to make my car jump over that lump. This was a experience that I would never want to experience again but never the less it made me feel as if I was driving a hummer rather than a maruti swift. Thank God that everything is good. Thanks Ankush and Abhinandan for helping me out.

Just When I Think I Am Done

Just When I Think I Am Done, I am reminded very softly that you are not and it is just the start of things. Life gets stuck into things without you even knowing about it and just when you think you are out of it, you realize you are deeper into it. I guess this is how life goes. Just learn to enjoy every moment because one thing is for sure that they are not gonna come back.
