Three men and a shopping basket
Pritam, Dasa and I decided to go shopping today. And when 3 men go shopping for groceries...well...God save the queen. :)
We went to a nearby super-market where we picked up all sorts of stupid stuff ranging from Hershey's Chocolate Syrup (I have a major time chocolate fixation see...and I just love it!) to ultra-cheap t-shirts. Unfortunately, what we didn't realize was that today was the first Sunday of the month and hence, the supermarket was overflowing with people buying whatever they could lay their hands on. So after an hour of picking up completely useless items, we reached the paying counters to find queues ending at the other end of the supermarket. This left us with only one sane option - to abandon our loot and walk away empty handed (and happy).
On coming back to hostel, we found out that one of our dear friends got a fellowship. A treat at Baskin Robbins followed naturally (IIT Bombay people try and get the pun :P ). And by God's grace the ice-cream shop was in close vicinity of the supermarket. So after loading ourselves with ice-cream, we visited the supermarket just as it was about to lower its shutters for the day (a good 3 hours after our first visit) to find our abandoned treasure basket still waiting for us at the exact spot where it was surrendered. 5 minutes later and 1500 bucks poorer we were happy pirates again. :)
P.S.: Meet the new love of my life. I call her 'sweety' :)
