5th Person

The 5th person arrived yesterday. i mean my 5th room mate. we were only 4 till now but the rule in all indian student apartments is utilise each n every space in the house , adjust with how many ever you can ...all this to save money. more the people less our rental bills are. The person who came is a lucky guy, i meannot everytime a bunch of guys go to recieve a person from the the airport ..? . The normal routine is that people usually take a " bart shuttle " from the airport to reach here. nobody gets a royal welcome. Bart shuttle is nothing but a shared taxi and they charge quite a lot about 60 $. so yesterday about few guys drove down to St Louis airport ( this is 2 hours from carbondale and only closest major airport ) to pick him up. With his arrival our house was complete. we are 5 of us in a 2 bedroom apartment which is little smaller than the dda flats . One bedroom is little bigger than the other one so three of us are gonna share it and the other one by the remainig two. I am gonna be in the bigger one ( lucky me...!@#!@ ) sharing with two other hydbadi guys . There is one abcd from pakistan....hez like born in pakistan , but brought up for a quite a few years in US. He is doing his bachlelors in aviation & management . He is into a lot of rap music , cigars and stuff. But the good thing about him, he has a car. so when ever we need to buy grocery and stuff we go with him. otherwise we take the University Bus which keeps circling around the campus and the town. Its free for the students but it does go to a lot of places and it takes a lot of time...

now coming back to the 5th room mate. we dumped his luggage in his room. Heated the food from the fridge , served it with a glass of pepsi and some mango juice all part of the first few days luxury that he would get . he was pretty happy good tasty food ( made by me..oh thank you very much ....cooking is ..u know quite easy for all of us ) . he finished his dinner ,left his plate and walked away to the washroom to wash his hands. We called him back and said " dekho bhai yeh khana juice yeh sab hum log karengee,lekin boss u need to wash your plate " i mean its good for him that he gets into the routine as early as possible. poor guy was little embarresed but then what do we do all of us washed the plates after we came. Its like a simple rule here in all the student apartments. " jo khaye wohi wash karen"
