7. ...........Contd.

If BC did not get lunch/dinner in his room, he would just enter into our mess and request everybody for “mama guest mama, Don hakasale, Babu hakasale, Suni hakasale…..” !! usually none of us gave !! (but there was a reason for not giving “guest”, he would never used to invite us for food when our mess was not functioning!)

Then he had a plan for that. He used to get guest for meals and would find another person for chicken and some other for omelets/poaches.

After having lunch/dinner, in fact a heavy one, Don had an intension to reach room by auto !! he used to say “mama, auto mama ” !! While eating goose berries near the mess!!

Once a mess owner had warned us not to eat all of them but in vain. Then he began to say
“Saar, at least let them grow”.

After every sems vacations when every body met, nobody asked the question “how are you” or “what you did in these holidays”. The only question asked was “what eatables did you bring”. Everybody was so keen on food. Just food !

Mahesh, Don, Alex, Ravi, Pundalik, Naik, Harry and me used to bring eatables in large quantity. This was meant to last for atleast 1 week according our Moms, but all this was eaten in no time. After having all these, we would go to mess for lunch !!

Mahesh, Don and me would bring avalakki, besan laddus and other variety of laddus with chakli. It would appear as if it was brought to keep in a sweet shop !! it was all for us !!

Once BC had 30 laddus all alone while watching a movie!!

20 laddus were too sweet which I brought and none ate more than one in HQ. I was feeling guilty but then Cyber came and said, “Kya Pack, laddu laya kya?” then I nodded. He ate all of those and again said, “kya Pack sirf itna hi laya kya?” !! HUFF!

Alex (babu) would bring cake, peda, chicken and lots of chocolates. But he seldom gave it anybody because it was not enough for his appetite !!

Alex and BC used to have all of the fish pickles and other non-veg items brought by Siju!

Having seen this, Ravi had brought 100 plus jamoons for us!! It was over within 5 mins !!
There still 4 jamoons left but then our friend Manohar was just passing by with girl friend, we invited him for remaining sweets.

Naik used to bring variety of eatables including banana chips, masala shenga and kobbari vada. But he used to inform us after the lunch/dinner, because he wanted to keep some sweets for himself and his roommates.

Only Pundalik used to bring strange things to eat ! like sugar cane, rottis and ground nuts straight from field !!

Harry had his own style of bringing kodbale every time !!
This repeated every sem.

Most interestingly some of us got a brilliant idea for having a good meal. We used to find out a new mess opened near by and would join that. Because in the new mess, we could get tuppa (ghee) for chapattis and rice including some obedient serving people.
This idea worked for a couple of months but got fed up and then came back to our Anjaneya Mess.

We had computer science FORUM in our college. We used to have boring lecture from some lecturers, then entertainment from students and then came our favorite round snacks!!

Once we had one full box of honey cakes and another box of veg- puffs!!

In entertainment section once Phoolan Devi chanted a disgusting poem on Mr. S!! which went something like “shreedhara..harihara.. davangere…” none remembers it but her!! One of seniors Laxman was so irritated that he stood up and screamed to take her away from stage!!

This is a never ending story of all Bheemas and Ghatodgajas………
