Catching Trains&planes

The first year of college was about to end and college gave us some big forms to fill in the details .I think this is just some formalty and dont fill it .Now the day of our departure comes, i wake up late, tarun and manish going with me are packing from 2 days,i go and collect cp1 marks ( avg -50 ),come back to my room and they are still packing .I put all my stuff in bags and pack in under 10 mins,these friends take another hour to pack i walk around saying good byes to all my friends.

We leave for train around 1:40 train is at 2:30.Stop at gate to sign out. Unfortunately my name is not on the list of students who can go out. I first request the gate keeper,then use logical arguemnt .Too bad he neither had a soft heart nor a working brain.I get fed up and start asking him to write my name as im going to vasco ,too bad its a working day and u cant go before 5 pm.

I speak to murliddhar, tell him the situation after speaking for about a minute he says ,come to my office tommorow ,maintaing my calm i explain to him train is now and cant miss .Too bad rules of college cant be broken even if u miss the train ,he says i have to take permission & girls warden might be in her office i can take from here

I send my luggage ,with tarun and manish .Take back an auto which just comes in ,go to main building,tell the auto guy wait here for 2 mins

This is the conversation i have with her
mam:why didnt u fill the form
me:i forgot mam
mam:u know if u dont fill the mess rebate form u wont get the money back
me : hmm (bang my head on the wall three times )
go back out the auto is not there, run to gate more in despair than hope .then i see this van coming from inside the building run with it make it stop &catch it and finally leave to vasco.

unfortunately i dont know what time train leaves ,so i dont know if im late already.Reach the station the taxi guy ask for Rs150 and thats all i have in my pocket.

Now i go into the station ,yoyo one of those rare days when luck is on my side train is waiting just about to leave
i find my friends and luggage ,now time to go home


(legend has it that taxi was used by my friend who lost is phone to go and register a complaint in the police station to stop his sim card, he blames me for losing it . )

(btw its named trains and plains because this kinda thing happened more than once ,even so much that i have nightmares about running behind trains and stuff)
