Plan

  • Plan the most easiest route
  • Wake up early
  • Take the planned route
  • Walk fast(er) as you near the sanctum sanctorum
  • Scan quickly for the number of people and try to guesstimate waiting time
  • Join the line...start praying...
  • The line starts to move...start hoping it doesn't stop in between
  • As you get closer, pray with more fervour
  • Enter the main gate...at last...
  • Start to run, along with others as you get nearer...
  • And then, it's all over...in a flash...

If you thought that the above is a description of a visit to Tirupathi...no, you are mistaken ! It is a visit to Bestbuy on a Boxing Day !! And for the first time, I saw crowds, people, line et al ! Who said there was a recession ? Who said there is currently a cut down in people spending ? They were all there...the people, the laughter, the joy...

And so, what was I doing there ? Well...purchase...but heck, the stock was sold out :( Which one ? Keep guessing...!
