Lord Krishna on Dried Peepal Leaf
Collected fresh peepal leaves, soaked them in water for 5-10 days, scrapped the outer layer and dried them.
After doing this work I felt immense satisfaction, not sure why but I was satisfied.

At the Restaurant
This incident took place while I was working at Chennai, no, I was on
my notice period of resignation so not sure if the term working is applicable.
It was me and my friend who resigned and so thought of taking some of our
friends for a treat (We just go on having treats for everything, even if u get
cold, u ought to give a treat, silly eh). We both were waiting in front of the restaurant and the other two did not arrive. We did not have money in
hand, Since we use our ATM cards for most of our payments, and that was the
time when extra fee was charged for transactions while using other ATM's. Ours was Axis
bank’s and that was at a distance. We thought we could make the safer side and
so we went to the cashier of the restaurant and enquired him if they do accept
cards, and he readily nodded his head. The thought of being relieved from
walking to the ATM centre kept us both happy. A little later both our friends
appeared. We had a chat and one of them asked
Leksh: What r u going to get us?
Me: We are all going to have gud food and in the end u both
will grind flour (in tamil itz mavarakka pooreenga) to repay the amount J
We entered the restaurant,the four of us made sure to order
different dishes so that we get the taste of all those and ate heartily. The
bill came and since it was using the card,my friend went with hers to the
cashier and he swiped and said not working. She sighed me to go over there and
I went and she told her card was not working. I offered mine and he said the
same,we both were confused. I had another card with me which I had used
only once or twice in situations of emergency,gave him that and he again swiped
and said “not working”. By this time most of the people were eyeing on us as if
we were people who are cheaters, people are always good in passing sarcastic
looks!
Just then one person came, someone who works there and said,
the machine doesn’t work from 3.00 in the eve, we felt like errr….So somehow
the money should be paid, we went to the nearest ATM centre, but it was out of
money,and at a distance was another one and that was out of service, so we
thought of going to Axis Bank’s centre and we were half running all the way coz
two of them who came for the treat are at the restaurant, it was as u see in
films, we go wid the money to release them, eventhough not actually, not all
people are rude.
Infront of the ATM was a long queue and we waited
impatiently for our turn, got the money and were out, when the security there
called us. We both were wondering why on hell did he call us while we were already
late, he gave us an ATM card, u know what, my friend left her card in the
machine itself in the hurry. We thanked him and were on our way back, reached the
restaurant, paid the bill and literally speaking released our friends and were back.
Leksh: I thought u ppl were jokin, but didn’t ever think this would
happen L
I would never forget that day, it was much annoying, the whole evening got spoiled, our tensions,the half run, the looks and all it was a very hectic evening,but today we would laugh over this remembering each and every second, how our expressions were throughout the whole evening.
