Boost is the secret of my energy!

I got a free "sehwag" autographed tennis ball when my mom bought a packet of Boost from the supermarket last week. Was sitting simply on Sunday evening, with no power in the house, when I decided to hone my so called "cricket skills".

Took the "sehwag" ball and went to the terrace of my house for a little practice. Since I didn't have a bat or another fellaw to bowl at me, I decide to try my hands at bowling. As the wall on one side of the terrace was lengthy, I started bowling towards that end.

The first ball went shoom... to the paddy field next to my house!! It was a big bouncer u know! After running down and getting my "sehwag" ball back, I decided it's time for some batting practice. Took a broken furniture piece which was lying on the terrace, pumped the ball up in the air and shooom.... ball came down before I swung my bat!

Tried a lot, for nearly 30 minutes with this idea. Finally, closed my eyes and hit and voila, the ball flew past my house into my neighbor's water-tank which was open!

Smelling trouble, I quitely came down and forgot about my "sehwag" ball... Poor sehwag, he is still lying in that water-tank....

Ahem... The reason why I was practicing so hard was to show my cricketing skills (which btw is "abundant" in me) to my fellow colleagues in an intra-departmental cricket tournament starting tomorrow at our campus grounds...

PS: More details about the tournament will follow!

Ariyaatha pillakku choriyumbol ariyum!

As a kid/teenager, my only source of information to learn malayalam was Manorama Publications' Balaram, a children's fortnightly and my granny. I still vividly remember how she used to teach me the basics of malayalam whenever I come to Kerala on vacations. My granny was also a great source of amazement for me as she used malaylam proverbs or the so called "pazham chollu" every now and then. These proverbs, though small in length and use, had deep insights! Though I can read/write Malayalam today, thx to Balarama and my granny, I used to miss her proverbs a lot. But not anymore!!
