ROOM NO 211 RAMASAMY FROM COURTALLAM

Room no.211., ramji @ second hand ramasamy @ Mr.S.Ramasamy from 'near courtallam'. .. 

our honourable president "generous" (kodai vallal) Lakshmipathy is his periyappa. so he is a big shot in our college campus. sorry da ramasamy, unga periappava patthi thappa sollitten, kovichukkadhe.on seein him, guys would think that he is just another normal guy. but his apetite is not a normal one. he has won the first place in anjac college for eatin around 80 idlies in jus an hour. dai ramasamy why dont u share with all of us about ur experience in that competition da?in anjac, his ug college, the physical education department guys would work out right from early morning and during breakfast each would eat around 30 to 40 idlies. but our great ramasamy doesnt need such a heavy work out. he would go straight from bed and compete with them in the mess. he is one of the kind, and no one can beat him in this aspect...thought he's only a voracious eater? he's an even more voracious sleeper. god i just cant understand how on earth can a person sleep like a log for days together. 

he used to sleep for days together during our study holidays and also on holidays.

he would wake up only to have his meals and then as usual, start sleeping. eppadi da ramasamy? 

i can forget anything about ramasamy, but not this... the second sunday after

joining rlims, me, jp and pollachi vivek were guided by the great 2nd had ramasamy to meenakshi amman temple. we went with him as he said he knew the way to the temple. he was about to take us inside the "thanga regal theatre" when suddenly i realised it and pulled him to the other side of the road.while in the second year,one fine morning i had a dream. in that dream, i was standing in queue in perumal temple, and got a cup of pongal. i took a little of it and was about to put that in my mouth when suddenly someone snatched that pongal and ran away from me. i chased that guy, and he turned back to see me. man, that was none other than our ramasamy. i shouted while chasin him.just at that moment i heard a heavy knock in my room door. the conversation goes like this... 

the knocker : mama wake up its nearly 6.30... 

L mama : who is it... 

the knocker : its me mama, mr.s.ramasamy from near courtallam.. . (i went nuts at this, may be because of the dream i had.) 

L mama : poda kena @#$%^& *)@$(@#% (and many more bad words)... 

ramasamy : poda loose mama, unne poi eluppinen paaru, ennai seruppala adikkanum... 

that day i felt bad, and apologised to him after classes in the hostel. i had to tell him about my dream, and why i went nuts, cos that was the truth, and i had no other go. now it was his turn to go nuts. he shouted at me sayin "yo manushana ya nee? vaaya kaluvu. just today morning i had a dream where i rise to the level of bill gates. but you dreamt about me to the level of pongal in

perumal temple?"... 

what am i to do da ramasamy? dreams come just like that... 

he was the hot talk of the hostel after 'Q'shetra'04 was over. he was in the tirunelveli group. one fine night,in the hotel where they went to have their dinner, he summoned the bearer and the dialogue between them goes like this...  

ramasamy: bearer... 

bearer : yes sir... 

ramasamy: what is the costliest item in this hotel?... 

bearer: sir, its the cashew nut dosa... 

ramasamy: aan, bring one plate of that item to my table... 

ranjith sir(to himself): huh what a mistake have i made in takin up the

responsibility of organising this event? if this guy contiue to eat this way then

i have to pay the excess amount from my pocket... 

his participation in 5 or 6 such events would have made his periappa a pauper. but thank god, only one such was there.one fine evening in the hostel weeks after joining the hostel he had a conversation with pattasu in the panchayat room, and that goes like this... 

ramasamy: kavidhai eludharadhu ellam oru kalai, but adhai padichu artham purinjukkaradhu innoru kalai. what do u say? 

pattasu: aamaam ne, sariya sonneenga ne. kavidhai ellam neenga padippeengala? 

ramasamy: naanga ellam kavidhainu padicha adhu Mu.Metha kavidhaiya thaan padippom. 

pattasu: avanga name'a avanga kavidhaikku keela thaane eludhuvaanga ne? 

ramasamy: aamaa, appuram? 

pattasu: sari, padichadhukku appurama adhu Mu.Metha kavidhai illainu therinja

padichadhai vaandhi eduthuduviya? poyya... 

ramasamy: ???...

average shuttle player, but poses as though he's a great one... infact his name

'second hand ramasamy' came to him from the shuttle court. when we were playin doubles game, he repeatedly got the second hand serve. while sayin the scores, i said fast 'second hand ramasamy', which stuck on him. dont worry da ramasamy, u'll now be famous with that name,and thank me for all the fame you've got  out of the name... but am damn angry on this guy for one reason... howmuch ever cigarettes i buy for the night, and wherever i hide them in my room, he would find them and donate them to the smokers...  he has sponsored 'kodari thailam' when we needed it while smokin... but ganja would be even more angry on me and ramasamy for converting his room into a massage parlour...
