The End: I Will Always Return

(Part of: Bangalore Trip: OSScamp Bengaluru Mobile 2008)

Pure Awesomeness by Bryan Adams in the Soundtracks for Spirit: Stallion of Cimmarron.

Bryan Adams: I Will Always Return

I hear the wind call your name
It calls me back home again
It sparks up the fire - a flame that still burns
Oh it’s to you I’ll always return
I still feel your breath on my skin
I hear your voice deep within
The sound of my lover - a feeling so strong
It’s to you - I’ll always belong

Now I know it’s true
My every road leads to you
And in the hour of darkness darlin’
Your light gets me through

Wanna swim in your river - be warmed by your sun
Bathe in your waters - cos you are the one
I can’t stand the distance - I can’t dream alone
I can’t wait to see you - Ya I’m on my way home

Oh I hear the wind call your name
The sound that leads me home again
It sparks up the fire - a flame that still burns
Oh, it’s to you - I will always return




Day Three: Coming Home Now

(Part of: Bangalore Trip: OSScamp Bengaluru Mobile 2008)

on my flight back home:

And I’m coming home now
It’s been so long now
Gonna get there somehow
Praying you’ll be there

10:40 AM I am glad to be going home.
Here Comes the Sun; Here Comes the Sun,
And I’ll Say - It’s Alright!
11:03 AM I keep running into bad weather, or so it seems.
11:07 AM Its common to have Turbulence due to the current weather.
Current Height is 38000 Feet.
Just crossed Hyderabad. Scheduled to fly over Bhopal at 11:55 AM and over Delhi by 12:45 PM.
11:20 AM I wish they had bigger windows to enjoy the view.
11:22 AM I wish I could feel the wind on my face.
11:31 AM Bad Weather Again: Be Seated, Fasten Seat Belts, Don’t Use Lavatories. Great! Bleeding Great!
11:35 AM I am rocking my toes, my feet are numb.
I’ve become so numb, I can’t feel you there!
Become so tired, so much more aware
11:38 AM Through with bad weather and no visibility for once. Cloud Cover Lost. Land Ahoy!
11:50 AM Hey Bhopal! How you doin’ man?
11:52 AM Aaj main upar, aasman neeche
Aaj main aage, Jamana hai piche
I dunno why, but I am humming this song. And grinning shamelessly.
11:56 AM Ah! Be Damned You, Turbulence!
11:58 AM It’s kinda weird the way the craft wings shake in the wind. I hoped them to be hard and firm.
12:02 PM It’s like a vast ocean of clouds that I am flying over. Nature’s Call. BRB.
12:08 PM I have been a great discomfort to my seatmates with all the walking from and back to the seats. Wish they had more space between two subsequent rows. Sorry!.
12:19 PM I want to be a space tourist next.
12:27 PM Approaching Home. 20 Minutes to Terra Firma. Wait! Isn’t TERRA supposed to be FIRMA? Ain’t that implicit? I mean, do we have Terra Infirma? I wouldn’t want to be there.
12:28 PM Preps started. Changes in direction and altitude.
12:28 PM We will be landing shortly in Delhi.
Descending Now.
12:29 PM Mother Earth and Gravity playing their little games.
12:40 PM Touche!



Day Two: Here Comes The Sun

(Part of: Bangalore Trip: OSScamp Bengaluru Mobile 2008)

0626 Hrs. Get a call from home. Rise and shine sleepyhead. Thomas is coming over too. He is a fellow camper from chennai; he needs a place to keep his luggage and to take a bath. I need some company; I invite him over.

He is there by 8AM, by the time I was fresh and ready. We start at 8:20 for the venue. I am the organizer for chrissake! I have to be there early, get things arranged and organized. But first - Breakfast!

Me and Thomas head over to the Kabini Canteen for a quick breakfast while discussing FOSS. It feels so great to be talking like you really know what you are talking about, even if you don’t. Post breakfast, Thomas and I start on our mission to find and reach the venue. I was to experience the vastness of the IISc campus, now. 40 minutes and 15 guides later, we reach the CEDT Building. Welcome to OSScamp Bengaluru!
