The Tank Bund 2

-


After 15 minutes of argument, we decided to go to "love Hyderabad" sculpture because that is free to watch and that is located in midway to our hostel. we opened google and check the distance from jalavihar to love Hyderabad sculpture it was more than 7 kilometres, so we decided to take auto but this time we try to be more careful while discussing charges, finally, one auto came he said 100 rs.
we don't want to spend 100 bucks here because if we gave 100 for him, we gonna left with only 100 that not at all sufficient to go back to the hostel
so we and auto uncle came to conclusion, we asked him to drop in the halfway at Imax and we are gonna give him 40 bucks, he agreed.
we sat in auto, in less than 5 minutes he dropped in front of Imax, we gave him 100 note and he gave us 50 note back then asked for more 10, he said "I don't have change ma" and he left.
we looked at each other faces and moved on.
we decided if Imax entry was free we are going other vice walks towards sculpture.
and checked it is free to enter Imax, stepped into one of the biggest malls in Hyderabad with zero money and full of confidence.
and we took so many so many pictures, without buying anything . after a few minutes came out and started walking.
finally, after one hour walk, we reached love Hyderabad sculpture, we took many many pictures, at sculpture and while walking on roads.
 now we have to go back to the hostel within 150 bucks.
by bus we don't know what bus to take
by auto, we already lost 350 by choosing auto
this time we choose uber it showed around 110 bucks from the place we standing to our hostel,
without wasting one second we booked uber and went back to the hostel by 1pm.
without getting notice we first enter to the shop beside our college, buy some cokes with the remaining money, and exactly by 1;20pm (lunch break) we entered into the hostel just like everyone entering from college (our college and hostel were combined side by side).
without wasting a single second we enter into our room, and took our plates, went to the dining hall, ate a lot.
return to our room and slept.

The Reunion

On the day I joined the residential school at 8 years old, Tulasi and P. Anitha were the very first classmates I spoke to. They gave me a place to sit with them. Tulasi, Anitha, Divya Sree, Kiranmaiyee, Naveena, Nissi, Swapna, and some others were already close friends, and they just adopted me into their gang. As our school was residential, students were not allowed to go out at any cost. But for the first time, Tulasi, Divya Sree, and I broke the rule and jumped the compound wall, running to my home (only my home was very near to my school, while all my other friends' homes were nearly 100km away). At that time, my brother was an infant, just 3 months old. Nobody had seen my brother other than my family, but Tulasi and Divya Sree were the first people who saw my infant brother. Soon after, they divided the whole class into 3 sections. All of us were in the same Section except Tulasi; she was in a different Section. But we used to play games together every day during game time. As...

One Exam.

This happened after the "Tank Bund" incident, by which time we had completely lost our trust in autos and auto drivers. It was during our sixth semester, the last semester of our graduation. We had to write multiple entrance exams to get into postgraduate programs, including one called ICET. I applied for it and got an exam center that was very far from our college. Only one of my friends got the same exam center as me, so we both planned to go together. The exam was set to start at 10 a.m., and we needed to be there by 9 a.m., which meant we had to leave by 6 or 6:30 a.m. because it was very far. We decided to go by bus, needing to change three buses and take one auto to reach the college. However, we were unsure about the bus numbers; at the time, we weren't new to the city but weren't experienced with all the routes. So, on the day of the exam, with a lot of confidence, my friend Ashu and I started from our hostel at 6 a.m. We were standing on the road discussing h...

Hyderabad To Rameshwaram

Day 1: Hyderabad → Arunachalam We started early in the morning from home by 9:30 AM We reached Kurnool and had breakfast. Before Kurnool, we had one stop at Beechupally (one of the famous Hanuman temples beside the Krishna river). After breakfast, we reached Kadapa by lunchtime. After lunch, we drove directly from Kadapa to Arunachalam. By 11:30 PM, we reached Arunachalam. If you travel in winter, you can reach a bit earlier, but since we traveled in summer, the temperature was higher than expected, so we had to stop in between for the vehicle to cool down. Routes: HYD - KUR: via NH44 KUR - KDP: via NH40 Kadapa to Arunachalam via Chittoor, Vellore Day 2: Arunachalam → Thanjavur After completing darshan at Arunachalam, we started for Thanjavur by 5PM we reached. It’s only 220 km — if we had started early, we would have reached earlier — but thankfully we reached just on time. As soon as we entered Thanjavur, we directly went to Maratha Palace because it closes around 5:40...
