Bundles of Joy !!!!

A hectic day at work, drooped amongst excel sheets,data analysis for the year,confused and muddled up to the core.Eventually fought with one of the closest friends. Poor friend :( did not even know the reason for my peevishness. I cancelled all plans for saturday evening but thank goodness some sort of inner wisdom came to my rescue and i landed up to the friend's place. Poor fellow,disappointed by my behavior was to start for some cafe with two more friends. I joined them but stilll the whole day's work was dwindling in my head.
Waiting for ordered stuff to come one of the friends noticed "UNO" cards being played by another group.The kind of inquisitive being he is, started gathering experiences to when we played it the last time and ultimately gathering the tit bits of information about rules by guesswork and the internet ,we had a gala time playing "UNO",the extent of which went up to even asking the cafe manager to lend it to us for the night since we could not find any toy shop open till 10:30 at night so that we would buy one for ourselves.

I am still in college, overloaded with project work which was not moving ahead according to expectations,fed up of the connectivity of internet in my hostel room,the deadlines to be met, and since these are last few days of my stay in this hostel,thousands of other chores to be completed before leaving. Its 6:30 PM and i get a message on my phone,"Chai?",a smile comes on my face and i reply instantly "Coming in 10 minutes". i walk up to the neighbouring "Chai centre", eyes searching for two friends who assumingly should be waiting catching hold of an extra place for me. I walk up to them ,share half an hour discussing the day's proceedings, share a laugh and come back to my routine.

I am working at my desk for some difficult task that I am trying to do since morning, not being able to accomplish even 10% of the same and its 1:10 in the afternoon.Friends calling up for lunch, i get up and walk straight up to the pantry where i hear giggling sounds from a group of 8-10 colleagues,i enjoy lunch with them,sharing a joke,discussing each other's lives,work,pulling each others leg. Most of my colleagues in office are girls within the same age group and we share excellent camaraderie.The kind of fun we have is difficult to find in one's professional life,makes my life at work a little more interesting,a little more fun and a little more exciting and I am back to work relieved and refreshed.


All the above are tit bits of my life at different stages, all being made a little more perfect by bundles of joy,called "FRIENDS",i meet some of them only once a week or  in a month or even a few months but sharing a laugh with them,discussing life and problems makes life simpler and happy. I am blessesd to have such people with whom life finds a new meaning and there's always something happening and exciting to look forward to.Thank you God for these wonderful people with whom life becomes a celebration without reasons.:):)




Happy Birth Day Maa !!!!

I have been waiting to write since the day i started blogging and what could have been a better day to write about my Mom,than her birthday...(although its still a week to go,but as i said i could not wait more..:)

Its been said that God creates mothers because he could not be with all his children(God you could not have made a better version of yourself....:)).Its been close to 7 years since i have been living away from home and the only thing that keeps me going is "You", Ma....I still remember the first day of hostel life when i waved her a bye. The first few days my seniors and batchmates did not utter the word "Mom" because being a cry baby,I would start shedding tears(though i can laugh about it now but i remember the pain it caused to live in another town away from Ma....)although the strength i gathered to stay away came only from her.

Since childhood, the thoughts of being self dependent, innovative, being with us(me n my sis) even when we turned out to be failures at times,encouraging us to experiment,learn and apply be it anything...reading, singing, dancing, sports. I remember whenever me and my sis were to face any competition or an exam,she would be the most active on our food habits,forcing us to eat and sleep on time,She would even not speak(Maun Vrat ;) until we would come home and tell her how we did..(even forcing us to study and study which at times irritated us too but if it would not have been there,i dont know where both of us would have landed ;)

She has been a friend always, I could share crushes and proposals,dreams and fears, and she would explain things to me in a manner that they did not come as imposed upon me.She would have her say but would leave decisions upto me. With all these,there came strictness where it was needed,(i remember the parties i missed because of one party i came late from ...;)

You have made us what we wanted to, we know that hurdles and cribbing will be there always but you have taught us to deal with everything and come out as a happier and better human being.
Sacrificing your own dreams and ambitions ( U could become all you dreamt of  but I am glad you chose to be our mother :) :)),you have made us realize our dreams . For us, you are the best cook, the best singer(even better than your favourite), the best opinions come from you.You are the most beautiful woman on earth and we are proud to be your daughters and its a promise,You and Papa will be proud of us always.....Wishing you health and happiness always...May all your wishes come true......Love u Ma....:)Wishing you a very very Happy Birthday !!!!!! :)

The day arrived !!!!!! :)

Hi All,

The title to my first post is just because i have been procrastinating this blog since 3 months,i guess......when a  friend started hers,introducing me to this amazing world of putting your thoughts via your keypad n screen to the world. Not that i never read one but ya,never thought even i can put thoughts to words ........:)n am finally doing it !!!! Takes me back to my childhood when i was intoduced by some teacher to the idea of penning down thoughts in a diary!! The idea caught my interest and the diary became a reflection of thoughts,moments captured through words..........the blog would be an extension to the same....ideas, thoughts, views,sometimes those odd moments of lots of cribbing and sometimes those moments of happiness that knows no bounds........would love to scribble about everything. Since I am a starter,would welcome criticism and suggestions from all those who would spend time reading my thoughts.........
Hey, did not mention the friend's name who has put this thought in my mind........Anjie:))Thanks to you,atlast the lazed out time comes to an end......

Last but not the least, wishing myself Happy Blogging !!!! :)
