Fools Day Adventure
Woke up yesterday like any other day, didnt even remember that it was April 1st, it was the same routine day, until things started happening. Around 230-3ish Jedi messaged me saying India has been awarded the WC cuz 3 aussies tested +ve for doping. I was like huh? April fool kisi aur ko bana, so as his plan fell through, he said lets try it on someone else. So Jedi, OJ and I messaged Vinay on msn breaking the sensational news, Vinay being a good boy getting ready for the upcoming exams was busy with his books and like any other Indian started jumping up and down as he recieved our messages. A quick round of Aussie bashing followed, with Jedi, OJ and I playing along. Jedi came running to my room all excited now that he had gotten aleast one tropy for his fools day.

cypherpunk: oye india declared winners of world cup
Vinay: haan charit bol raha tha.......bhaav nahin haio...but still drug default se milne main thoda pride to hai..now we know where the fuck gilchrist and symonds were getting all that power behing the pulls

Well, the devil that I am, I declared sitting on my chair while checking news that lets send out SMS(s) saying that I have been diagnosed with SARS. SARS, yeah the mystery flu, is the latest scare thats going around S. E. Asia. Jedi had tasted blood so he got into action real quick and fired a few quick SMS(s) to Mav, Photon, The Dude and Ankit. Ankit, poor guy, hadnt slept the night before and was least bothered about anybody getting infected by virus. Mav with his presence of mind right on spot responded in kind to Jedis message saying - Fuck You...! Photon was sound asleep and didnt hear the incoming SMS alert. But The Dude being a kind and gentle SNAG types, called promptly to inquire what exactly was happening and we devils got our prey. By this time, we - Jedi, OJ and I - had already made Vinay the member of the inner circle and Mav had also been handed out the SOP.
Now because I am ill and supposed to take rest, read the rest of the account here.
OJ left my room sometime ago telling me that hes gonna post a more juicy version of today's events but I believe right now he's busy with some other stuff cuz its not online as of now. I will post a link as soon as it comes online.
P.S. As of now there still are some poor souls on campus who think that I am down with SARS, I got a couple of calls asking how am I feeling? ;-) Oh but the highlight of the day came around 9 pm with NTU announcing that exams have been postponed by 15 days, my first reaction was whoa where did NTU get such a good sense of humour from? It turns out they didnt, its for real... COOL...!!
Addendum: Check OJ's piece here
