Had the best afternoon today.. of course started with the yummy lunch at home consisting of mor kozhambu, aloo curry, keerai [not a big fan of this but it helps the skin]and rasagullas for dessert.Then was waiting for an auto to take me to the patent office. This woman auto driver came along and she was the most cheerful auto driver I have ever seen. When asked how much she was going to charge for the journey, she replied, whatever u think right. And she drove so well... I almost hugged her in pride. Then i went to the patent office where I met this lady who works in the cash Dept. She is an ex- football player [though doesnt look like one] and has formed a team of little boys who are school dropouts and also interested in football. She is meeting the Sports Academy officials to get them a chance to play at some competition and also secure admission in the Sports Academy. It was amazing that this lady, who barely makes both ends meet with her salary, was taking so much effort to improve the lives of the ppl arnd her. Really amazing.
Chamathu, anyone?
I never stick to my words. So here it goes: The Tamilian people can be classified into different categories. This classification is based on their character, virtues, educational qualification, skin colour, length of hair, size of nose...ok you now get the drift. I am only going to talk about one category at a time. Today is the one which people are scared of falling into, it is called the 'Chamathu' category. As you age, you might like being classified as 'Chamathu', but as a kid, it is a dreaded category. Ok now let me explain what 'Chamathu' is. Lets start with the guy, because I am a woman and would love to give the first chance to men :p A Chamathu guy is one who oils his hair regularly, recites his slokas at appropriate points of time during the day, makes earnest conversations with 80 year old thathas who spit more than they talk, goes to the temple regularly [Note: going to the temple everyday would make him a 'pazham*'], does not talk to girls u
