young doc's alter ego craves for Goa

Being a doctor has its thrills, but most of the time , it's all about a distorted human body that I'm dealing with ! Oh come on, we studied Anatomy as a subject, we sure require to see perfectly OKAY human beings from time to time , to appease our insatiable thirst for beauty ! What better way to seek solace, than at the spectacular Goa beaches , with its bevy of both 'desi' & ' firangis' lasses,demonstrating enviable physical features' ??   ;)          
 Moreover, people who actually get too 'high' end up on our hospital beds. Now, now, that's too much to deal with.  Treating an alcoholic liver is an obligation, but the clinician's alter ego  craves for some liquor too (please excuse the rant, but we're NOT devoid of earthly attractions at all)! What with Fenny available aplenty on the Goa beaches, the doctor's mind drools over the possible auspicious occasion of getting to sip on a Fenny bottle, the cashew essence exuding its effect on an overworked body, taking control of his faculties, and transporting him away from the hassles of a Night-duty roster, towards the colourful nights of Calangute!      Goa, you are a paradise for stressed out individuals, & happy to inform, I'm an ICON of this category of people; take me in your lap, to revive me! It's for the benefit of the nation that you need to care for me, coz in my being in good 'spirits'  lies the fortunes of many! So, it's your wish........!   :D

dada slambangs and trolls KXIP '08 IPL

It was the Last league match of KKR in 2008. We were already out of contention for a berth in the semifinals. But pratik sarkar , pranamita ray, gourab das and me being die hard KKR fans , decided to visit the Eden Gardens for the tie against Kings XI Punjab.
    The going got tough while kkr chased a total in excess of 170 and lots of wickets fell. By the 15th over, we were 6 down and required a staggering 70 odd runs from 5overs. Crowd were already leaving anticipating a loss, and it was getting late , but our inner spirits told us we should stay . Boy , we did stay on and saw the match of our lives !
First it was Umar gul who thrashed James Hopes into the stands for consecutive sixes . Then Sourav Ganguly took his turn to loft piyush chawla for his trademark "bapi bari ja" shots ! By the time Irfan pathan came on to bowl the last over, we had shouted ourselves hoarse . Some more screams were to come from us as Dada smashed the first two balls from Irfan for two mammoth sixes ,and then took a run to complete the victory.
 We had gone wild with ecstacy . I still get goosebumps when i remember the night , as we stayed on till the presentation ceremony , and finally sang KORBO LORBO JEETBO all the way to our home . We even acceded to the exorbitant prices charged by the taxi driver , as we reached home well past midnight !
