Transition of name

Recently I started a part time job on campus. However I had to change my name from Abhishek to Abhi. Why? Because people find hard first to pronounce it and second to remember such a long name. I had some of the trouble with my name. Many people did not know how to spell my name. They always put e at the end - "abhisheke". I don't know why. My pet name is montu. When I went to school the companions called me abhishek. But there were some friends who called me montu even in school. The other friends sometimes used to pick up this name and called me montu. Nothing wrong in it! Now here people at the place I work call me Abhi. They find even this name difficult to pronounce. But I am thankful that they always put their best effort to pronounce it right. I think next time my name should be changed to "A"!!!

Thieves are here too!

My bike doesn't have a lock. I dont have enough money to buy it! Rinal and I share the lock. We tie our bikes together to common post. Yesterday we found that one of the bike was misssing. We first thought that one of our friend might have taken it. But at the close examination of lock , we found that someone had cut the lock. This really hurt us. Currently we are not earning even an extra dollar! The cutter he might have used would be amazing. Why do they sell lock which can be cut? I kept my bike in my drawing room to prevent it from being stolen. Never trust on lock!

Quantam of Solace

Rinal and I decided to go for movie. It was my first movie in theater in usa. So i was excited and it was James Bond. wow! Anal had discount coupons. So the price of ticket was 40% less. We reached theater at 9.15pm. But what the hell! SOLD OUT!!! There was other show at 12pm. We decided to go for that. Who cares about sleep. College days. Enjoy! But the real problem was how would we go home since there won't be any train! We decided to go back home and bring our bikes. We came to theater by travelling in light rail bringing our bikes. There was one unusual thing. No seat number on ticket. First come first occupy. We found seats at the back. There were desis all around. The movie started. Bond driving car. I love cars. The story was not that interesting. But the music effects and photography was great! liked it! The movie was over by 2am. Then came the real thing. We drove bike for 25 min to reach home. I went to sleep as soon as i fell on bed.
