Rappling!!

on"Knees Straight,Knees straight..she said in such a sweet (though it seemed daunting) voice..you must be wondering what the hell does it mean,"Knees Straight"..ok..let me tell you ..what actually Rappling is..you got to hang out from a 70 feet high wall and rapple down..actually it is done on rocks..but wall is also fine,if u have some gaps in it..
"Utsav",the students of BMSCE,Bangalore call it..their xtra-pompous cultural fest..what a old stupid archaic name which added to the banality of their fest..but wait guys..the event which needed really evervated me but took out the acrophobic attitude of mine and offered some "Thrill,Fun and fear" was "Saahas".
It basically was organised by the well-estabilished mountaneering club of the college."Mountaneering Club"..kool na..The event had "Rappling","River Crossing" and one which i dun knw the name of..but it was the one like the Thiefs do in the movie..sliding all the way through a slanted rope from one tower to another..hope u got it..I dared to do rappling..(@ Rs 20/-)..We climbed up the roof and there was that sweet little girl..who was the expert ,rather i would say ,as it seemed to me..the way she was scolding and instructing her team mates..she was a connoisseur of this very thrilling sport "Rappling"..she tightened up the belts n all gave the noraml instructions..The first 1 to bid me adieu before rolling down was deepankar..i watched his Red-Rosy cheeks turn to very deep sanguine colored sweaty cheeks as he walked down the wall..I already started feeling the tickles in my stomach..After he did it successfully n landed..She said to me.."I want you to do better than him"..
I think that was the kind of motivation and courage i needed..then she asked my name..n i told her wid so much interest as if ..then i went on the other side of wall..hanging like a heroine in a typical bollywood movie n shouting "Bacho Bachao"..
Then she said.."look up anshul..Smile.Smile"..now that was the best part..She was blaring at me.."Keep ur knees straight..knees straight"..n i was rappling down easily enough ,looking up n smiling..I kept smiling to her till i realised that i have reached the ground..the journey was over..huhh...
But lemme tell u guys..if u rapple down seeing someone and smiling,u'll probabaly do it with perfection overcoming the balks that tend to distract you...

So,wait till we start a "TIET Mountaneering Club" from august 2006..M serious guys..We gonna do it!!
