Go for it or not..!!!!!

After an awsome farewell celebration in school , I was sitting in bus going back to home. I got my cell phone off the flight mode to general profile.As I was going through the pictures that I took of the farewell celebration , I recieved a new message.The message was from my sister.It said - " Aj tu shaam ko tickets leke aaja.raat ko yahi ruk jana " .

Actually 3 days ago , my dad got the movie tickets for the movie " My name is Khan " for a saturday show at DT cinemas , Saket , New delhi. I was quite excited.I really wanted to go for the movie. But , my dad had a conference at Jaipur and it was quite necessare for him to join that conference for business purpose.My sister who is living as a payig guest near Saket couldn't just come to my place and take me from there.Saket is some 1 and half hour journey by DTC.SO she wanted me to come there.Let me tell you , I have not yet travelled in a DTC alone.

I was in double minds now. I really wanted to watch that movie. But , I was not feeling like going to Saket by bus . Its quite tiring and I was already a bit tired after our farewell party.
Then her another message came - " Tu kl mere sath wapas chalna.aj mama k ghr rahenge.mama tuje pick kr lenge kisi jagah se.bus se kaha tk aa payega bta dena muje. "

Well , as far as Delhi was concerned , I had never gone past East Delhi Mall , which was not much far away from my house , maybe some 15 mintues journey. I was thinking till where I could go by bus .
By the time I reached home , I told my mom about that.She simply said that if I feel like going I could go for it. Then I called my sis , she told me that I would have to catch bus no. 534 from Anand Vihar.She told me various other things like occupy the seats on right side as left are to be reserved ladies , don;t talk to anyone etc etc. Okay , I didn't need that much of advice.I enquired about the stops that would come my way. She told me some of them , and told me that I have to leave the bus at Nehru Place where my Mamaji would come and pick me. For a while , I thought lets sit at home and chill , who wants to go to Nehru Place , so tiring blah blah blah.... But then , I thought , I really need some experience of travelling in DTC. So , i took it as a challenge. Nehru Place , I am coming.


I changed my clothes and switched on my PC to check out the farewell pics in wider screen. My sis told me that I should leave the house near 4:30 pm.And it was 3 :15 now.I decieded that I should take some rest for an hour.And for me , rest meant logging on at Facebook and Orkut. Time flies like anything when browsing through FB and Orkut. At 4:15pm , I kept 100 rupees in my pocket and the tickets for the movie.Now I was all set for one of my longest journeys alone. At last , I got my cellphone , plugged in the earphones and dancing to the tunes of music being played on my cellphone I said , " Bye mom".She replied , "Go carefully , and call when you reach there. " I opened the door , and left for a journey that was definately going to be an exciting one , atleast for me right now.
