Talkin bout my trip to Andhra Pradesh, we went to Nellore...its a small town very different frm Blore....u cannot find stuff like corner house, pizza hut and all to spoil urself.... :P Let me begin frm the train journey....we travelled in a second class sleeper coach...i duno y but travellin in a train after soo long felt very gud fer sum reason...it was an overnight journey...neither the train nor the toilets were too bad...dat too i was chummin but unlike travelling by volvo which was sucha pain wile i was chummin, diz was pretty pleasant and i didnt hav issues as such....
I was gonna mention a day to day thing bout my enitre trip but den its been so long so i m gonna cut it short...1st day we did nudin but eat 4 meals a day n sleep...yaha frm the breakfast to the dinner, whtever dey were feedin us tasted really nice...i ate extremely well fer those 4 days...ok i was like xpectin lot of practices and matches to play but we hardly did much...we had 3 games outta wich 1st was a bye game coz blore uni was a winner frm last year so dey get the advantage or sumthin...2nd game was a walkover we got frm S. R. M. Chennai and the 3rd game we played (only game we played dat too only the 1st 5 players coz it was very close and da rest of us werent very well coordinated wid the main players...) was wid Pune University wich we lost by 4 points..score 25-21...yeha we lost at the knockout level....there was a lot of sidey crowd wich came to watch the games n i swear they were a royal pain...we got sum media coverage frm a local news channel... :P der was diz weird eliteness that we enjoyed bcoz we were frm blore...dun ask me how n why...but der was diz certain awe dat ppl were in of us... :)
For the inauguration ceremony all the teams had to do a march past in the hot sun and den der were speeches by all the big shots of Nellore or A.P. whtever... dey released so many balloons in the air and der was a fireworks display (mornin..broad daylight !!!! :S) for 5 mins...yup i lost it at dat time though i had my mp3 music blaring in my ears...oh we played a frdly match agnst i fergot who fer sum 5-10 mins and dats da only time i got to play fer sum 40-60 secs.. :( der was diz camp fire dat was organized wer neone frm ne team could perform sumthin...i cudnt go fer it coz agn gud old fireworks fer no apparent reason were happenin...
Dats pretty much the notable events of the entire trip...as fer stayin every team was put in a classroom ( stayed in V. R. college) which had a huge, dusty red carpet laid..we had to spread a bedsheet or sumthin n sleep on the floor...der were INFINITE number of mosquitoes who bit the crap outta me thruout the trip..it was extremely annoyin..i duno how long will it b till all da marks can go away...usin coils dat dey provided and odomos wich i bought didnt seem completely enuf and i was still traumatized....1st day we when we jus reached, we counted 4 bats in the room...the corridors had big fat lizards here and der...cobwebs and one rat was also found...(corridors)..another significant irritatin thing was the toilets provision...takin shower was the pits as der was no hot water and the water provided waznt very clean... i occasionally kept findin used sanitary pads in the toilet or the bathing area...yuck!!!
On the last day we managed to hire a 4-wheel Cheverolet and a semi-pro guide who took us arnd and showed us four temples...they were Peninsula Narsimha temple, Kamakshama temple, Ranganathan temple and Venkateshwara Swami temple...i no these r 4 names but one place i think had 2 temples...so yeah... check out sum pics i clicked...
(ready fer march past...each team had a chick clad in sum sari holdin the uni name board..)
(dese were one kind of toilets...da other toilets atleast had a door but dey were as dirty and sumtimes clogged...)
(this is the classroom wer we stayed and that red carpet..)(One of the temple vidoes i took)
I hav more pics and videos but den i wudnt put up all of dem...damn a hugee post....! hav fun! :P
