Football on scorched ground
The heat really got onto my nerves today. I attended NSIT after an epoch, with the intentions of attending some lectures and gain some knowledge which our gurujis impart everyday. But it suddenly was so bloody hot after 11 am. Even the usually-cool TT room was a bit uncomfortable.
The morning saw the guys of IC 2 staring at the noticeboard which were proudly showing of pages titled " Men's football and cricket fixtures". Most of us were in jeans, flotters(those sandals sort of things, i dunno what they be called), and we had our match with IC 1 at 3:30. Great. I visited the cricket field, where there was a match underway in full swing. The ball shined cherry red, even from the boundary rope.. very tempting. The sound of the willow on the cork really turns me on lol!
IC 1 greeted us in the football field sporting jerseys, football shoes, shorts... dressed for the occasion. And we guys some of us barefoot, some in jeans , still managed to pull out a win.. yaay! Not that we played really well, or our opponents played poor football. But we somehow won. In that scorching heat, under the blinding-copper sun which was baking the ground beneath us. I spent the next hour drinking fluids, iced tea, salty fruit juices that jovial juicewala makes.. My body needed to replace the salt. And my skin still feels so hot.
Hope we are better prepared for our next match, and we do well in the cricket tournament too.
cheers
And yes, ******* told me that he does not wish to be named in my blog, so if I ever need to mention him i shall do so by the word
