The Most Boring place on 'Earth'
Have you ever been to Anderson Street,chennai 600001..if u have then u would know that it is one of the world's most boring places!!,my mom and dad wanted to go there to get some stuff for my cousin..since i was free they forcefully dragged me along with them...(it was an invisible chain tied around my neck called emotional black mail :( )..like a puppy following its master i just ambled along behind them, that time i had little knowledge of what was awaitng me..:( .When i reached the place i was awestruck!!!,it was truely a fantasy land for
1)Rag pickers,2)People who wanted to print invitations 3)for nerds who always ran out of stationary and 4)People who own stationary shops in the city!!.
The stuff my parents got from there was..1)Assorted Rubber bands of hig quality and different colors( RGB :P)..2)higly durable gem clips and 3)Long lasting cello tape,but these were just side attractions..the purpose of our visit was to order jute bags for my cousin,this dint take very long as there was only one shop which even supplied jute bags at a reasonable rate..so we could wrap that up pretty quickly.
After that we went to a sweet shop called 'Agarwal bhavan',it was supposed to be the best sweet shop in 'paris corner',and i guess it is the best, because inside the shop there were abt 200 people and i guess the total 'moving space' inside the shop would have been about 400 to 700 sqft!!!..it was one of those places were if u drop something on the ground then u should consider it gone for good because when u bend down to have a look,you would only be able to see about 100 pairs of feet !!:p.So after having managed to have 'badam milk' there,we finally muscled our way out.
My dad wanted to go to other places aswell..but i told him that i had enough of touring 'paris corner' and wanted to go back home as soon as possible..i guess he was also tired after the stint in agarwal bhavan and so had to give in to my will.
Over all it was a 'once in a life time experience' for me..because on the way back home i took a pledge that i would never come back to that place ever again!!.
I have uploaded some picture of the place..have alook to come to ur own conclusion!!
