Uppittu - Chaai

On the day when the sun is lazy to rise, and we are not wise (Oh!! Its exam time! so we realize), I have some awesome thoughts while walking down the stairs of the hostel (Bangalore is like a hill station, time to go on a holiday etc), the weight on my back brings me back to reality.

Grudging all the people out there who finished (almost) their exams, I head to the canteen. Its just another day.

I check out the items available @ the counter. Ms JMJ Riya caterer has Uppittu and Avalakki on the menu. I curse him for having a fight with his wife (I say that's when we get the crappiest of food) and mumble 'one plate uppittu'. A half asleep me trudged to the table.

One hesitant spoon of uppittu in my mouth.. Lo and behold! I have a wide smile. People around me are looking at me like I am an idiot grinning at nothing!

The happiness obtained on eating some good HOT food on a cold morning is something that can't be explained in plain words.


I take out my Galaxy Droid and click a quick picture :D

I sms Prattie and Sudhix 'Bisi Bisi uppittu on cold morning is Yumm!' (translates to: "Hot Upma on cold morning is Yumm!!"). Co-incidentally they turn up in the canteen in next 5 mins, ( and I take the credit for tempting them to come sooner). I simply smile when I see them here.

We talk some gibberish at the table, joins Shrek who shrieks at my PJ. I warn them against an outburst of PJ. (Exam tension saaar!)

A hot tea followed by the Bisi Bisi uppittu to end the breakfast saga of the morning. To do justice to the chai, a picture here :P

Just when the others complete their breakfast, I am done with this blog :)

Arrrrrrgh! Back to reality.. Got communications exam @ 2, gotta go study. Tata people.
