Chapter 1: Pilot

First things first! I'm a guy!!!
In this pilot post I'd be narrating the story of what happened in my life until this very night. My name is Karthick Sampath (AKA) Sudharshan. I'm another worthless person leading a very normal life in the cross corners of Chennai, capital city of Tamilnadu which is one of the biggest states in India, which is one of the biggest country in Asia, which again is one of the biggest continent in this earth, which again is one of the tiniest planet in Milky way, which again is one of the medium sized galaxy in our universe. This description would go on and on as scientists even found the proof of parallel universe. But, lets skip these issues as the prime focus is my life. The legend was born in the mysterious month of November back in the year 1989. From my childhood I was raised in the small, I mean very small town of Guduvanchery.
Guduvanchery ... the name may sound a little odd to spell, but it is one of the finest and peaceful towns in Tamilnadu. It has long stretched fields and farms, variety of birds and animal life, dense mountain range and long lakes and on the other hand it has modern shopping malls, one little theater, a police station, three junior high schools and few temples.




The picture you just saw is the picture of a dense forest and a mountain range located in Guduvanchery. I had many good friends and the meaning of friend back then was whoever played cricket with me. Even though I had these types of friends I was usually a loner. I spent my time by writing poems for my unknown angel, writing stories, trekking, exploring, travelling, hiking etc. That small town offered many places to explore like caves and haunted buildings ... One thing I still miss is that church bell sound. Under this pretty big mountain you saw, there was a small church which had a big bell and chime. That bell used to Ding for every one hour. That 'Ding' sound would be heard throughout the town. Days passed by and in no time I finished my 12th grade and that's when my life took a pretty big turn. One fine day, my dad called me to do some little talking. I came to know that he decided about my Undergraduate study. He said that I should study Engineering and I have no other choice. He also said about the moving plan.I was shocked, I mean literally ... !!! When dad said about the plan, unknowingly I kept my left hand in the switch socket nearby!!! I had an other plan of studying Visual Communication and to become a film maker! When I said this to my dad, he laughed out of his dad and said "Good Joke!!!"
Mom and Dad decided that we should move to the capital city, Chennai, A big Metropolitan city. I've been to Chennai, a couple of times before that. I was really scared about its size and people. I thought that in the big cities people would be greedy and selfish and unfriendly. I was depressed and felt dejected. I'd loose all my friends and adventures if I move to Chennai. That thought haunted me badly. I spent the last day by sitting in the peak of that mountain range you saw in that picture above. It started to pour. But I continued to sit there and that's when I took this picture. The next day ... I was all set to move to CHENNAI !!!
