Continued from Amchya mumbaichya local trains
As I said, I am usually 10-15 minutes late for each morning’s 1 hour toxic dose of studies called “lectures”. My teachers are co-operative nice people, so they understand. But like friends ask me, how can you expect it “every single day?” So questions come my way, “Oh! Shatabdi! Why late?!”
And then you have this millisecond to come up with a convincing reply. Sometimes when I know it for sure that I shall arrive long after the teacher, I call up my friends and give them a bana-banaya bahana. So, no spanking as such for being late, they already know :-D But, you can’t do this every-ruddy-day man! So, here are my tried-tested-best-working-universal-lies for being a regularly irregular student :-D
*~* Ma’am, I am not keeping well. [weak face coupled with a cough :-D]
*~* I am sooo sorry ma’am! Alarm clock ka batteries discharge ho gaya tha! I got up at 6:45 and I am here at 7:45; that is something ma’am! :-P
*~* While coming to the station my car broke down! Abhi high-way pe lift kaha se milta ma’am! [worried face, ruffled hair :-P]
*~* I was studying late night sir, aap hi ka chapter ;-)
*~* Watchman didn’t let me in! I-card nahi laya :-D
*~* It was raining in vashi :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
*~* I fell on the station and hurt my leg! [with a little sad face, sympathy follows instantly]
*~* I forgot something important at home and traced my way back, so, late [usually saying journals or home-assignment helps :-P and do NOT mention lunch-box here :-P]
*~* What!!! I am LATE??? Oh! My watch! My watch!!
And the reason that almost always saves my very sorry ass is……..
*~* Trains late!
[which they usually are not]
So, there you go. Ready made explanations for your delay. Also, talk as much as possible, so that the teacher takes you in just to shut you up :-P
And I really hope my teachers don’t find the way to get to my blog ;-)
P.S. Update. Campusjunkie has been kind. They have finally acknowledged my hard work and awarded me with tools to show-off :-D Visiting cards provided to all core-writers! Have a dekho on Jiggs's blog. Mine reads,
Shatabdi Roychowdhury
Core writer.

I think they're drawing inspiration from you in being late. :D
It was raining in Vashi? Really????!!! :D
And since Jiggs didn't answer my question; could you? How can I write for campus junkie as well?! I have at least a year to spare if not more!!!
:D
@ Alok
Haha...we had a look at the test run, looks okay.
Tujhe toh card ka poora thappi pakdana hai!!! abhi lagta hai milna hi padega :-P
and yea....late lol!
but somehow we are not too optimistic about the outcome. let us see.
:-)
@ Anindita
See, it is a college forum website. So, if your college is not a part of the colaboration, you cannot technically rite 4 them.
8 core writers from each college, and other students from that college write to run contests n win money. core writers r paid according to the ratings of their articles for each deadline. we havn't actually been given any cash, but we know of our salary :-D :-D Its not too much money yaar...but other things like the exposure, parties, visiting card, fun makes it a gr8 experience :-)
If u need the money and I need the article, we can negociate though :P :P ;-)
Quite cool.. will use them at my further studies classrooms..
office mein toh late means.... a day full of sarcasm..
campusjunkies sounds good... whats that..
Omi,
As the Name suggests, it's a group of College Students (Campus) who like getting high (Junkies).
You get to write about your "experiences" on their private site.
And then they send cards at your home to prove that you are a member.
Isn't that just wonderful? XD
OO
I have added a few lame excuses in my list of excuses :P
nice ones !
Chal deal! =D
awww i miss makin bahanaz @ college!!
n\my pet bahana used to be, maam i stay real far away, hav o travel 60 km everyday , plz let me in!:P
aur ye teri list number n+1 thi :P
I think some of my friends can use this...
Congrats about the visiting card!
And in my college, walking in late is a norm, no one is on time! :P
So no need for excuses! Although in Delhi, blaming traffic and bad roads are always a safe option. :P
@ Big Omi
Haha, yea...
and being late to work might even mean losing some cash of the salary..
I will go 1/2 our early :-P
Campusjunkie is a college forum website. Shall let you know once we are launched.
@ alok
LOL!!
and
:x!
mil tu bas!
@ Anindita
Tujhe mazaak laga? I mean it :-D
I will need 20% commission though.

@ peter

Thanks for the visit,

aree proble m yahi thi k my class-mates come from very very verryy far off places and come 15 mins b4 lecture time :-|

@ Akshay

Aate rahiye kabhi kabad, kaha ghum ho jata hai!
@ Ki
haha, yea...but subah 7 baje traffic?
I used to use it for my 10 baje ka lectures in First Year; till the teacher saw me at dadar station :-D
Then the announcements were made and my main bahana had 2 be given up :-(
