Wonder of wonders…one of my friends who was quite close to me when I was in Madurai was online today when I logged into messenger. This bugger was trying to go the USA for higher studies (as I was at that point of time). So he used to stay with me for guidance on TOELF and GRE as I had already cracked with very good grades. After going off to the USA, as it happens to me with respect to all of them who leave for the USA, he never got in touch with me again.

Now here is the conversation we had. (All times in GMT)
(08:58:00) ME: ass@#$%…how are you?
(08:59:44) FRIEND: always as useless as an ass@#$%
(09:00:02) ME: where are you now? still in germany?
