The House Hunt... (Part I)
The House Hunt... (Part I)
I had been sharing a house with this friend of mine for the past 1 Year and 3 Months when last Saturday he woke me up at 10 in the morning:- "Get up you lazy bum" he shouted. I baulked at his intrusion, Gosh! it was a Saturday, a day to relax; He poured water over my head, water chilled to the core. I got up, frustrated and started looking for something I could hit him with.
I : "What da Fuck man? WHY?"
He : "eH! We have to look for a new house."
I : "The owner got to know about his daughter??? Shit! Man."
He : "No, he has not... Yet!"
I : "eH, The Credit Card people came calling?"
He : "No.. They do not have this Address."
I : "Your Second girl friend got to know about your first and fifth?"
He : "No, But yourz did.."
I : "Shit! No issues. But what is the problem man? No, don't tell me. You are not moving out, are you?"
He : "No. But you are."
I : "I! But Why?"
Seems like his folks were moving in and I was being thrown out. So that left me with less than a week to look for a house, A house in Bangalore for a Bachelor who wanted to stay alone and not share a room/house with anyone (ok, maybe a sweet damsel who might read this can inquire). And thus began the journey of my ordeal. The first thing I did was to go online, and check out the forum of mah company... Just incase there was some Ad out there... Here is what I came across (Un-Edited)
"This is a moderately furnished one independent room, part of a big house. Readily available. Very good accessibility and very nice location with all the amenities in the vicinity. Welcome for a calm and quite person who would not cause headache for an old couple. Ideal for a lonely bachelor. Rent can be arbitrated and settled after seeing the location. Thank you. Contact : Veerabhadrappa (you can refer my name : gireesh)"
Man, this guy knew what he was looking for. "A Lonely Bachelor" eh? And the only restriction was that he should not cause a headache... all other kinds of aches permissible, or maybe even invited... he he. And the icing on the cake... The name of the advertiser. Man it was hilarious then but maybe I should have given this one a try. But then again, I did not fit the bill. So I checked out the next one...
"It is a 1 BHK House big enough to accomodate 3 person. I am lookin for 2 people to share the flat with me. It has a large bedrrom (big enough for 5 ppl), a large hall, 1 kitchen, 1 toilet and a terrace. I am paying Rs. 6600. The advance is yet to b paid since I shifted here only for a week. This place is for immediate acomodation. It is just 5 minutes from the Indiranagar CMH road Company bus stop. Its in a very centralized location."
Now the irony here was that the House was big enough for 3 people but the Bed Room was big enough for 5. I know, I know what you must be thinking. Yes I was thinking the same. How many people was the toilet big enough for? And what about the guy, could he be trusted? Man he moved in only for a week and he was already contemplating about overstaying. The location was centralized as well. I know about central locations but centralized? Maybe he was referring to the Air Conditioning.
Anyways, guess this was not going to be of much use. So I started looking for other Avenues...

I am so sure this comment won't get approved, but, dude, where the 'fuck' did you dissappear to?
If nothing else, the least you could've done is given my roommate his keys back. I understand I made a complete ass out of myself but that doesn't mean that you wouldn't pick up "his" calls?
Geez.

Hello
I was looking for ways that would help me get free traffic to my Blog. While I was searching on Blogger I found your Blog. I know it does not have to do with getting traffic but I really enjoyed reading it, great job!! In fact I have my own Blog and I get a lot of free traffic from http://www.autosurfmonster.com , If I were you I would submit this Blog to them so thousands of others can see it for free. Well, I will add your Blog to my favorites and I look forward to all the updates.
