My Ardous journey from Ajmer to Delhi(1)........By Komal Arora

I woke up in the morning with lots of excitment...afterall it was my 1 st experience IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY...WAS REALLY EXCITED 2 MEET MY HOST FAMILY ,SERAFINA -MY EXCHANGE PARTNER. and yeah my german teacher Frau Kully. Actually, my life was going on so smooth..got selected easily,then my parents allowed me to apply for this programme but nothing is complete without an adventure.My journey from Ajmer to Delhi was an experience which is unforgettable. I got ready to go to the railway station for the train which was at 10.35 a.m. My father called up at railway station to confirm the train timing and we got to know the train was an hr. late. You know indian railways-'ALWAYS LATE'. Then we reached the station at 10.00 a.m. After reaching there I realised that I had forgotten a book of mine. So I called up my uncle and asked him to get that book for me. So he got the book for me.....after a few min. my dad remembered that he forgot to give me a card which he was supposed to give me.. So then he himself went back home and got it for me..so this blunder happened before boarding the train.after boarding the train another blunder happened.the train changed its route..due to this our train had to wait at every stop for a long time so that the trains of that route go 1st and then ours..the annoncement about it was done at Jaipur station but we didn't listen..if one thing goes wrong then automatically others too..the train travelled slowly and I couldn't report on the airport at scheduled time.everyone ,my dad,mom,my sister and I got tensed..it was the worst moment of my lyf..it was lyk someone was taking away something I desired so much but I couldn't help it..we planned to take a taxi from Mathura but a person at the railway station adviced that the train will reach delhi 1st rather than taxi..so we dropped our idea..we had our fingers crossed..from Mathura the train started at a pretty good speed but it decreased its speed thenafter.It stopped at places for 15-30 minutes from were taking a taxi was difficult.
