Musketeering

 

I have no idea why I chose this title .

I have been waiting to see this scorpion friend of mine , I used to challenge with in some funny games and travelled together with during college days . Saravanan aka miki  , my college mate who also happens to be my colleague and a best friend of mine and the guy who wished to hang out somewhere probably a movie and the guy who booked tickets for The 3 musketeers movie and …..Phoo ! enough with the ands .

So , I just called up susee and he was ready to hit it but initially he didn’t believe it , as we rarely spoke in the last 4 months . So plan confirmed .

When I boarded the bus yesterday  afternoon , a text message with a very friendly  word reached my mobile , which is ..”Dei Donkey , Im in your bus da ..come front ” .  I was surprised , people don’t call me donkey , not that they don’t call me by names , they just don’t call me donkey .

So there he was , few seats in front of me . We started chatting with the usual questions …” how have u been ? , how is everyone , how is your work ..blah blah blah blah ” and finally reached express avenue . 2 musketeers IN , 1 yet to come .

There was still half an hour left for the movie to start . So what would u do ??? . Oh Ya ! We did the same …Window shopping and ofcourse some site seeing :p . Express avenue is the only mall in chennai where you could find so many foreigners that you begin to doubt if you were in chennai . It was so crowded but as always the shops were empty . People flocked around ( not IN the shop) the outlets which had cool posters with good lighting and nice interiors and started clicking photos with their friends , each one taking a turn and posing as if they were some super models .

(Hey psst…we were doing the same thing too …now keep it low :p shussh…)

And then he came , the one which would give meaning to thy name – 3 musketeers . We rushed to the cinema with the tickets . They were making fun of the hall’s name – p(f)lush . Superb decors …superb lighting and superb ..ahh ..u know what I mean ;p

The first thing they screened made most of us in the hall scream out in anguish and disgust . It was the trailer of our thalapathy’s velayudham ….OMG . Then the movie began and it ended ..that’s all . The movie had a very stupid naïve plot , but with the masala and 3d , it was entertaining . Not bad , I would say .

      What next ? …time to eat . I wandered around with sara with meal passes (we get passes from our office) and reached it out to all outlets asking them if they would accept it , but returned back with a no from all of’em . We then bought some to eat in KFC and went down to participate in a few contests that were going on in the ground floor . I found Sony ericsson’s contest pretty easy . I just had to type , I love sony ericsson 5 times , earlier than my competitor . Guess what ?  - I won .Yaay !!!! (I played smart ..my friends called it cheating though) . I was pronounced the winner of the contest and was awaiting a surprise gift and received a ….I was soring in excitement , when she gave me a coffee mug …a coo..ffee mug ??? . Duh! I shouldn’t have expected them to give me a mobile phone for this tedious task .

How did I miss this ?…Sara’s proclivity to drink the krushers – in a different way , was too high , they he removed the top and the straw and had it like bottoms up . This man is funny and doesn’t care about what others wud think . Way to go miki …its really gr8 to be that way :)

Anyways , we three had a great time together and we enjoyed the day . All for one , one for all .
