2012-03-05T21:17:00.000-08:00

Sagara alias “Anton” and Maduranga alias “Mosquito” are my neighbors. They and another three are living that boarding place. Others are Udara alias “Tin Tin”, Niroshan alias “Public” and Chamika alias “Quarry”.

One fine day there was a rat died at their boarding place. Therefore there was a bad smell everywhere. It’s near Anton’s room than others. After he spread perfume all over the room.

But he was unable to sustain it further.

So he told story to Mosquito. The Mosquito agree with him to find the dead rat.

Anton was very happy.

But Anton saw Mosquito was dressing to depart somewhere.

“Hey man, where are you going to go?” he asked.

“I’m going to meet my girlfriend” Mosquito replied.

“Can’t you help me?” that’s Anton.

“I’ll come soon. Wait for an hour” said Mosquito and ran away.

Anton had nothing to do. Therefore he told the situation to other three guys who are in the boarding place. But the way he told is somewhat different than the previous one.

“Hey guys, there is a bad smell from outside, isn’t there?” he asked.

Public and Tin Tin acted as deaf. After Quarry asked “No man, from where that bad smell comes?”

Anton was angry and said “haven’t three of you noses. If elephant died at here you’ll sit like this. Idiots”

“Ok we’ll come to find it” Public told.

After several minutes Anton came quickly to others and said “One of my friend called me, it is an emergency. Therefore I have to go. Please find that”

He departed from boarding place and others got angry. They stayed with playing cricket at garden because of the bad smell didn’t spread to their rooms.

Other two guys came to boarding at night. When Anton just came to room he smelled that.

He came to Tin Tin and asked “Didn’t you find that, what were you doing?”

Tin Tin laughed and told “There was an ant died at your room and we cremated it”

Another mishap to me

2012-02-28T21:06:00.000-08:00

That day was a one of a coolest day in my life. There was a cool surge coming from India.

I was also unable to take a bath previous day. Therefore I went to take a bath.

I started to take a bath, but there wasn’t water coming from shower. Then I realized the tank became empty, because my friend put switch to full the tank several minutes ago.

“Oh dear what should I do now”

I started to clean my body using soap until the tank become full.

After several minutes I started to bathe again, unfortunately my hope became null.

Therefore I had to wait several minutes again.

“What a cool wind is this” I told myself.

It’s was a very bad feeling like a fish in without water.

“If I tell to my friend this he will bring a bucket of water for me. But after he may tell this to others” I thought.

Therefore I abode the cold.

After several minutes there was little amount of water came from the tap. So I washed my body quickly and came to the room.

This story about the little son of my aunt. His name is “Shashitha”. He is in grade 9 now and loves computer games. After I came to home he often calls me to come his home. Last year his elder brother brought a computer for him.

He wanted to install new games for his computer. Therefore I installed “Robin hood the legend of Sherwood” game.

As I think in its third level he should save Princess Marian. After many tries he was unable to save her yet. But today he called me asked “how to save Princess Marian”.

When I’m writing this post he saved the princess and now his effort is to save Little John.

Now he learned how to play this game.

Sometimes he will call me later.

He will teach to save the princess to our aunt today and his friends tomorrow.

This is the way to save the princess.

First you should tie Tuck and hide him at a room in the church. After send Robin to the cabin at the church. After the princess will come to there. But you should kill all the soldiers in the town.

After you can accompany the princess to Sherwood.

If anyone need to save Princess Marian, download the game here.

Three idiots

2012-02-09T18:03:00.000-08:00

Pappu is one of my friend and Pandu also. One fine day we had to face for an exam. Therefore I and Pandu came to bus halt to go to the exam hall. Pappu was late. We decided to find what the reason of his late. But he came to the bus halt in minutes.

He is the person who knows new exam hall. So we had to listen his silly talks. He said “buy a ticket for me, because I know the way to the exam hall” things like that.

After several minutes a bus came to the halt. We entered the bus quickly. After passing several bus stops I was get a seat. Pappu sat the one behind me and Pandu sat the corner seat.

After about half an hour pappu said that we should get down. Bus was full at that time. So we faced some difficulty to reach the door of bus. But we were unable to fine pandu. When we find him we saw another man was sitting his lap. He was unable to turn any side. Meanwhile bus stopped and I asked pappu about getting down there. But he said that he was unable to remember the exact bus stop which we should get down. I was little bit angry, but I abode because we are still in the bus.

He spoke like he is coming every day to this place. But he didn’t know the exact place. There were many people at the footboard. The conductor is also like pappu. He said “we stop the bus, because people at footboard”.

After passing two bus stops we had to get down. Pandu also was able to get down. “Oh dear! This fool pappu did a mistake. We should walk about 100 miters. Ten minutes to start the exam” pandu shouted.

Then pappu started to run and we followed him. After we were able to come the exam hall on time.

But pappu was missing. We were looking him while sitting. After about five minutes he came to the exam hall.

After the exam we had to chance to reveal the reason of his missing. He wanted to answer the call of nature and it was hurry. Therefore he hadn’t time to tell us.

A mishap for me

2011-03-02T05:13:00.000-08:00

This incident was happened to me. One day I went to hospital to take medicine. I went by bus. The bus is stopping near the hospital. So I was coming along the road.

There were two gates at the hospital. When I coming towards a gate I saw it was closed. Therefore I turned to the other gate. While I was turning I heard a noise. “Oh, this “stop” board was hit my body and it felled. I tried to set it again. But I was unable to do that.

When I saw nearby some people laugh at me. Therefore I went into the hospital quickly.

After I was consulting the doctor I went to take medicine. There are two queues there. One of the queues is long and there are a few people at other one. So I didn’t think twice and joined to the short queue. Then people those who at other queue laughed at me. Then I saw nearby. So I saw a board in front of short queue. “For older people (60+)” was the board. What a shame. I have to shame twice at one day.

2011-02-17T22:22:00.000-08:00

Uncle “karu” is husband of my father’s elder sister. His name is “karunarathne”. That’s why he is called as “karu”. He had been a postman.

He is a sot. Every evening he comes to home with bottle of arrack.

One fine day there was a party at my father’s younger brother’s home. When he arranges a party he calls uncle karu also. First they came to our grandmother’s home. Then they went to our relations homes.

Before came to party aunt warned to uncle not to drink. But he doesn’t care aunt’s warnings.

When went to party he wanted to drink. So he took a bottle of arrack from others and hidden it.

He went to beside of our home.

At the evening I heard my mom was scolding to someone. When I went there I saw uncle has hidden lots of arrack bottles around our home. Mom threw them away.

After uncle came and found his bottles. He knew someone throws his bottles. Therefore he went while scolding.

After few hours aunt came our home while crying. Uncle was sent to the village doctor because his hand was broken.

We asked her “what happened to him?”

When he went to grandmothers home he was get crushed by a breadfruit and he felled. That’s why his hand was broken.

But I have a question yet. There isn’t any breadfruit tree around that area.

After principal went from our class kasun and I went to “panikkuwa”. We asked him “what happened man?”

But he was very silent and wanted to avoid our questions. Therefore we went to meet “bandi” and asked same question from him.

Then we had to get the original answer.

While we were running “panikkuwa” also following us. But he was remembered “bandi”. So he returned to find him. When he came to the previous place he saw “bandi”. But “bundi” was caught by the principal.

So he frustrated and came quickly towards the principal.

He started to cry and worship to principal. He told “sir, please forgive me.”

So principal told “child, don’t cry and stand up”.

Then all others were started to laugh at “panikkuwa”. So he felt some shy.

After principal asked about others from them.

That’s why principal has known our names.

One bumps

2011-01-21T00:44:00.000-08:00

When this incident happens I was at grade ten. These days our favorite subject was dancing. Because in dancing periods we can evade this class and can play. Our teacher was very kind person and she loves students. But many of boys are good for nothing.

On that day there were four guys including me evade the class and went to play ground. We started to play one bumps. It is like cricket and has several differences.

Kasun (tikka) , dinesh (bandi) and another dinesh(panikkuwa) and me(kiriputha) are the four guys.

When we were playing the ball rolled away. Tikka was the fielder and he follows the ball. He took the ball and came quickly towards us. He was frustrating and told us “parrot, parrot”.

(“parrot” is our vice principal’s nick name).

Therefore we started to escape from parrot. When Tikka and I are running we met our principal. He was very angry. So we changed our path.

When we came to our class there were several students in our class. So we quickly moved to our places and sat. After several minutes bandi and panikkuwa came to the class. Our principal also came to our class after half an hour.

“kiriputha, kasun stand up”. He told.

So we stood up slowly.

“Why are you reducing your personality?” he asked.

But we were still silent and frustrated.

So he advised us to improve our personality and went.

But we had a question “how he knew our names?”

When this incident happens I was in grade three or four. There was a boy called Janaka who is in our class. He was very naughty boy. One fine day he had stolen some money from his mother. As I mentioned it was 375 rupees. It was somewhat huge for us those days.

When he went to the school canteen the lady who is in the canteen knew about this. Because students those who in primary classes never brings such a money. Therefore she complained it to our teacher.

After an hour our principal came to our class to find Janaka. But he was not in the class. So the principal told us to find Janaka. While we are finding him there is a boy called Ajith came to visit the principal. There is a wound on his head and he is crying.

“Sir, Janaka throws a stone to me. “ Ajith said.

That’s why he became injured. So principal accompanied him to give medicine and told us to find Janaka quickly.

After about half an hour we saw Janaka is running.

“I am going home.” He is shouting.

So we started to follow him. There are two boys following with me. They are Ruwan and Asanka Wimal. We had to follow Janaka about half a mile. He crept through a fence. We were unable to find him. So we took a rest. After several minutes we saw him again. He was running towards his home. So we started to follow him again.

But we are met his aunt. She started to scold us. Because after creeping through fence Janaka wounded. So we return back to the school.

When we came to school the principal was standing behind the gate and he was very angry.

“Idiots, I told you to find only school area not outside.” He said.

I think you can imagine what happened after.
