The Trip: From Heaven to Heaven

I've always loved BITS Pilani and this place is no less than heaven for me and that's all because of the people here. One such group of awesome people is Gurukul. The talent, the place, the music which has been the most important and integral part of my BITSian life. And what could be better than an awesome trip with these guys.

The awesomeness started off with the dumb charades in the train with my act turning out to be the best - "Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon" explained in the most dramatic and easiest way.
Figuring out chords was the next activity we did at which I failed badly, almost everyone of us did. The dinner @  McD's, Kashmere Gate was awesome except the new dessert McFlurry didn't turn out to be so good :(

Nainital was the next spot and I got what I was seeking for. Rest. After doing all the couple stuff like boating, visiting lover's point and all, I again took rest which was awesome :)
The Dinner was probably the most memorable part in Nainital with our 200 per head dinner turning out to be unimaginably tasteless which resulted in some really "mirch masala" argument.

Camping was our next and best plan. Be it the fear of Rappelling, the tiredness of river crossing, the awesomeness of the bonfire, the fabulous night safari or the hot and tasty food. Everything about the camp was great.

Although I couldn't be the center of attention on the trip, me being the serious guy in the group, Ankur took the responsibility of entertaining the group with his "Yo Dude" Jokes and his ideas on "Kya aap Yo Dude Banna Chahte hai" which will be available in all the railway stations and Bus stands without any exception for Rs. 10 in 3-4 years from now.
Piddu with his workshop glasses leaded the trip with Ronak who probably stopped laughing only while he was asleep. Shreya as always was mostly excited by the shopping @ Mal Road and Vaibhavi with her cool dude attitude continued to surprise her with her weird comments and stunts. Manish with his undying enthu made it to the maximum appearances in the pics.
Siddharth Joshi kept remembering his "College ki Natkhati Ladkiyan Jo usko mohabbat se dekhti rehti hai".  Ghot with his get up in a muffler and jacket proved out too be the best choice for the new chowkidar for Gurukul. Samarth with his awesome guitar skills proved out to be surprisingly very good with his singing and his "Why Georgia" will be remembered for a very long time. Abhipray although mostly quite turned out to be the most courageous person volunteering for rappelling in the first spot. And finally Nikhil who just couldn't let go the most important and beautiful thing on the trip without which this trip would not have so awesome. The Guitar.

Thanks to all you guys for making my psenti sem more memorable and fun. Its been Awesome.

P.S. There are a lot of things I wanted to mention here but keeping it small is probably better. Any other remembrances  can be posted as comments :)
