The-always-joking-Guy : Turro

I sometimes wonder how boring the course would have been if Turro did not enrol.  Turro is meteorologist from Mongolia. And yes! Hydrologist too. He is the coolest among all the SAS-9 guys. Though the course has already ended 15 days before, I am writing everything in present tense because I have still not been able to come out of the SAS-9 phase. I feel like I still have to return to hostel and my stay at home is just a short visit. So friends please overlook the grammatical errors.

Coming back to my friend Turro.. Hmmm.. the reason behind why It took me so long to write about him is that I’ve so much to write about him and comprising it all in a blog is quite a challenge for me.  
I asked him one day, what is that one thing which he’ll never forget about India and he replied that he’ll never forget the beautiful big eyes of Indians. But lemme confess my side of story. I find Turro’s eyes most expressive (sometimes scary). He literally talks with his eyes. Initially he had some problem in communicating in English with us but most of the time due to his talking eyes, we were able to understand what he wants to convey. Making scary eye expressions, he has tried to scare me many times. I can’t forget that dreadful night when he horrified me by banging my door fiercely at 2 am in night, making scary noise and shouting ‘ Maya’ more than 100 times. And when I opened the door with my pounding heart, he was staring at me with his eyes wide open.. That scary moment!!!!

Turro loves trying new things. He is the Yes-Yes Guy of SAS-9; ever ready for doing anything out of the league. He has most unique ideas of making fun. He loves to throw Water and Air party which nobody entertains. Moreover he knows how to harass girls. Girls will shout at him but he’ll not listen. He is a big prankster and he’ll try his best to make everyone laugh. His sense of humour is impeccable.  

Apart from being a full-time prankster, he loves music and dance. He plays awesome guitar. The fusion prayer on solar workshop day went so well that the whole group was praised by every guest present. That would not have been possible at all without his support. Moreover he was the winner of most charming new comer at Garba night in PRL. I remember dancing with him non-stop for an hour doing all silly steps which came to our instincts.

He is very short tempered but I’ve seen him melt in seconds and regain calm. He is the one who was always victim of SAS-9 girls’ frustration. I remember every one shouting ‘Turro’ on top of their voice sometime or other. I am no exception. :-) He used to get irritated by this but he never got much bothered and always did what he wanted to do. He is like a huge wave of sea, Unstoppable and Fearless. 
    
He is much like Indians. He loves spicy food and loves to roam around in the city during late night hours. That last late night exploration on Ahmedabad streets with Bharti and Turro would always remain etched in my memory. That was the record breaking sneaking out of hostel right in the sight of security. :-P .. Ummmm Good (not very) old days..  


Yo-yo-yo Turro.. Live Happy .. Live Healthy.. With your friends and family.

The Laughing Buddha of SAS-9: Chanaka Sandaruwan Haggalla

Mornings are very difficult for me. I hate to get late and make people wait for me. But unfortunately I cannot overcome my desire of sleeping till the time after which spending a second in bed, can get me late. Today was one such morning and my mood was already offset. I took a backseat in car and guess what happened next? The first thing I noticed was, 'big-bright' smile of Chanaka and all stress of getting late and facing my guide after a bad performance in project evaluation, flew away. Mimansa Shastri with Camera Man Chanaka Sandurvan Haggalla.. :-P Chanaka is a simple person with very less needs and the cheerful smile on his face depicts the contentment in his heart. His attitude of taking care of others and going beyond his limits to see others happy, impresses me the most. His personality lacks " I " and so far I have not been able to find out any trace of selfishness in him. His simplicity is most charming and his minimalist approach towards life, in...

The one

This is a story of HER! Today she depicts her story in her own words! For THE ONE who wants to know HER! she's clumsy, she's unmanageable sometimes, But she will be there to manage your any of the worst times!! Her mood swings are difficult to judge and confusing as well, But her heart is the safest place where you can dwell!! She might be broken in pieces when she smiles at you bright, The only thing she wants is THE ONE who holds her hand tight!! She is scared to believe and trust anyone, But now she's relieved,bcz she trusts more than herself in THE ONE!! She's rude and miserable you can say, But she's strong enough to find her own ways!! She ll hide her feelings from the world around her, But deep in her heart she knows THE ONE who matters to her!! She's the one who depends on you the most, But don't judge her though as this is the way she shows her trust!! She's not the most beautiful girl you could find,  But she promises you to make the MOMENTS M...

Cup Periods.. Best Periods

periods for me meant discomfort unless I started using menstrual cups. I had read about menstrual cups while campaigning against taboos related to menstruation but never tried to inquire more about them, considering that this might be a special product used by athletes. On Jagriti Yatra during our visit in Banglore, I visited stall of Boondh and that was the first time I was able to know more about cups and how any girl/woman can switch from plastic sanitary pads to cups. The eco-friendly reasons led me towards thinking about this product but the fear of inserting something in my vagina didn't allow me to buy it on that occasion. Few days later after Yatra, I got a call from a very popular Doctor and social activist of our city, also my mentor for campaigning against menstrual taboos, Dr Ami Yagnik and she was very keen to promote the idea of using menstrual cups among the Surti women. I immediately resonated with her idea and we decided on starting our campaigns to promote menst...
