Wondering what is this?This is my train ticket status which stopped WL/14.Somehow reached the railway station and went to passenger ticket status Q with a hope that I will get my ticket confirmed.Trains departure time is 22.30 hrs and it was already 21.20 hrs,when I reached the counter,my ticket returned to me still in the status of WL/14.My mind struck,heart beat stopped,eyes out of my wet face,all these are the signs of tension.

In spite of giving
EQ for confirmation,nothing happened.Between all these my mobile receiving messages from My hero regarding confirmation.Then called my uncle working in railways who gave EQ for my ticket,he thought that my ticket would be confirmed.But as I called him and told that my ticket status is still in waiting list,he was worried.Then he directed me to station master,then he directed his subordinate to check any berth for me,I also requested for up gradation to AC coach if available.The time now was 22.25 hrs where I was running out of time and the train was scheduled at 22.30,I still didn't board the train.Then subordinate of station master took me to the coach S9 because there was a berth available .I was some what relieved and comforted myself in the berth alloted to me.


My request to all and especially to the girls travelling alone in night is that not to start their journey without confirming the ticket.Also when there is waiting list in the train it is advisable not to book a ticket,even if you have a hope of confirming the ticket.As I love to travel a lot I should now on bear in my mind to travel safely with booked ticket.Tickets teach me good lessons and hope not to continue in the future. Some mistakes correct you to lead a happy life.
