THE YEAR THAT WAS........

Hi all....

I hope everything is in place and doing good.....Now I've stopped criticizing myself about not being regular in writing my own blog.....but hey..!!! wait.....I just did that.......anyways....after a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time ........Here I am.....

From my last blog things have changed a lot....and its really a lot......from 57 to 66 kg... :) and now to revisit and recall between my last blog posting to this....I'll do that in a jiffy. ........

I did my summer internship from Cadbury India Ltd.Malanpur-Gwalior....had a nice time there....then a small stint in a good HR firm....and then I started getting busy in my ongoing term of MBA...participated and won in some events of marketing ......things just happened and happened and happened ....and happenING..........

Whenever incidents occurred i decided to give them a place here itself....but....huh.......only God knows why I was doing nothing in my MBA......

I also travelled a lot..... in spite of various locations.....the frequency mattered....and I noticed and realized that whether the distance is 1km or 1000 km....the journey is only a journey...and which is best when you enjoy each and every moment of it.........

I know I am getting philosophical but theek hai......padh lo yaar....

From a damn damn damn beautiful young lady from Israel....a Swedish gardener.....a beautiful Negro female.....Hindu extremist....Muslim extremist......free advice givers....self made entrepreneurs....teachers......some chutbhaiyye Neta's...some couples...young and old both...some alone travellers...painters......sculpture artists....doctors.....engineers... villagers.....to some sweet little children.....I met a whole lot of people....enjoyed a lot......learned too......

uuhhhmmmmmm.........just smelled the delicious food prepared by Maa...lost all my senses....rest in next posting....and this I will definitely write it as early as possible....and like Chinese people are celebrating the coming year as Year of the Rabbit.....inspired from that....I also declare 2011 as Blogging Year for myself.....

May this coming year bring 2011 reasons of happiness for everyone I know and who know me....

Yours,

-Aditya.......

Observations.....

hi all....

I always wonder why we wear clothes...is it really for protecting ourselves from the cold or heat.....or is it just for fashion........for both the above reasons...or just for being comfortable.........

anyways before I say something more...since its my personal blog and I want it to be read by my future generations.....I definitely want my grand grand children's to read how I used to spend my exam days and also the days after the exam......

here I go.......

Alarm 1 rings@ 3:30 a.m...........
Status........Sleeping(Me.....)...........Awake(My room partner.....)
He puts the alarm off and tries to sleep..........

Alarm 2 rings@4:00 a.m. ...........
Status.........Sleeping(Me......)......Awake(Now the room partner is awake but trying to sleep.....by covered his head using a pillow....Cursing me........!!!.)
Alarm rings for 10-12 times and stops automatically.....
....

....
Alarm 6 rings@7:00 a.m. .....
Status...........!!!!!!!!!!!!Err.......shit man...........aaj toh paper hai.......!!!!! chal be uth.......

Now at 1 p.m. .........
Me:- Yaar bhai ab phatt rahi hai....kya kare..........
Him:- Ha yaar....lekin ab kya.........Chal Dev D dekhte hai.........

At 6 p.m........
Hello..!!!! Mummy........ha bus de diya.......
ha theek gaya....chalo abhi next paper ka padhna hai phone rakho........
bbye.....dhyaan rakhna.......


( My university is having the most weirdest time slot for the MBA exam......scheduled at 3-6 p.m.)

At 7:30 p.m. .......any Movie will do the work of washing away the bad memories of same days paper.......

alas.......anyhow I/we managed to give all our exams on time....(God knows the result.....)

Now I am in my home and yesterday experienced the most boring activitiy on earth....)...that is to go shopping.............

But this time I rather enjoyed it by noticing others .......

A teenager boy with a huge belly...walking as if his back side is bandaged.... came to but a T-shirt with her "Maasi" ( The maasi was looking like a retired bollywood heroine.....wearing revealing saari and talking on her Nokia E series......in a bad good......good bad Hinglish......)

Boy: Maasi ye kaisa hai........
Maasi: Theek hai betaji......lo ye 4-5 aur try karo.....

later....

Boy: Ye Ed Hardy wala le lu........
Maai: Ha...aur ye 2 pink colour wale bhi le lo...,aajkal Betaji Pink is new colour for Men.......
Boy: Haanji...
Maasi:- ye Provogue wala Mirror print le lo ek.......suit karega......

The boy looking horrifyingly khatarnaaak when he walked out of the changing room.....doing a even more Khatarnaak Cat walk.........wearing a black t-shirt ...having Provogue printed in Mirror like material....
The print was exactly on his belly...making it look larger then ever.....

Maasi:- Waah betaji.........teri Girl Friend toh dekhte hi reh jaegi.....

This was the Hardest part to hear..........
( I don't have a belly........I don't look that much Ugly........and that Rs.900 mirror print shirt must have suited me more than him....)

But truth is truth....Girls are girls.....Mysterious as ever..........(Recent study says......in 60% cases ....Dumb also...)

again...

Boy: Maasi ye 5 le li hai ...baaki apan Mufti se shirt le lenge......
Maasi:- Ok Betaji......

I huffffffed a bit....and carried on my search for a good tees...

I got the answer why Indian fashion industry is not that booming...and Indian economy is flourishing as ever..........Thanks to the retail giants and the marketing strategies......

Anyways apart from the boring shopping and interesting incidents like those......the only next good thing happened to me was.....

A young girl wearing a simple looking white top...having features like Megan Fox appeared next to me on the counter..............

With the thought of being regular in writing blog.........

14th February.........................

14 February.....Sunday..........a day after 13^thFeb......a day before 15^th February..........we can name that day using any of these.......aahhhhhh..Hmmm.....yes....it is also called now a days as.......Valentine’s Day.....a day of love......a day when you can show and express your feelings to any person you care and love.........and this....and that........

But....here I am....yes I am alone...aloof from the entire world this Valentine day.....

But....WHY......why I am alone in spite of my around 375 friends.....( This is what Orkut says.....about me...Facebook I did’nt cross checked....and LinkedIn ...I never noticed.....and Twitter...again......I never had any interest in noticing how my friends and acquaintances I have......)...so where I was.......

Yes......why I am alone in spite of my many many many friends.....in this entire world... alone on valentines day....far away from friends....parents....( love not yet found.....but experienced in breakups..... J) ........hey....1 sec.......I haven’t had a chance to bath today also........yukkkkkks................

The day started pretty nicely.....I woke up in Meerut....had a hard time cleaning my bowels after last night’s “T*tt* Chicken” at Abu Lane. Was enjoying a divine breakfast. Homemade Makkhan....Doodh....Wheat bread with powdered sugar and some of Alloo/Pyaz paranthas...( Yes...food for me... is divine...my good friends know why and how....)...........all this at my friends place in Meerut....chaos all around in the house because of his sisters marriage.....and me with Varun is busy discussing last night’s trip...and enjoying the paranthas............

Suddenly I am told you have to leave with the marriage party to the Grooms place in Delhi....in 2 minutes......Bang!!.....I like this....super fast deadlines........

I immersed my head in the cold water...took a towel and ready to go after applying little oil to make them look washed.....and shiny....(all this went in vain....as there were no one....hope you’ll understand.)....

On the way we three took a stoppage at some very famous eating joints on the Meerut-Delhi highway...........and anyhow we reached Delhi........

I was clicking the boring ceremonies of the marriage.......having heavy Delhi style lunch......and I had a conversation with kid...

Kid: - Bhaiyya.....Alto toh gai Meerut.....apan kab nikalenge.....

Me:- Kaun gai.....????

Kid: - arre bhaiyya ...alto gai.....tavera main challenge ....acche se piche baith kar.....

Me:- Alto....................!!!!!!!!!!!!! kaie gai aur kab....Mera eklauta bag usi me tha....

Kid:- ab kya karoge......aap toh yahi rukoge na Delhi main......ab kya..!!!!

So............this was my story.......I am here......wearing jeans...shirt...sweater...jacket......One wallet with a Rs.100 note....and a cell phone without charge...........and to travel and survive in a city called Delhi...................

Stop it........my mind said suddenly..... You've got a beautiful chance to experience the situation.......Enjoy.......

I enjoyed being caught by policeman while clicking the board which said...” CLICKING PICTURES IS PROHIBITED”...........

I enjoyed drinking the Lassi at Chandani Chawk.....................

I enjoyed travelling in the DTC .......and the argument with the Haryanvi conductor.........

The best of all.......I enjoyed travelling without the tension of having an eye on your luggage..........

This was half the story....and I will keep it half only...........I had a way of solving the situation......U think your own......it will be nice if you’ll share your point of view.......

So what.....if the people around me were busy enjoying the so called Valentine’s day.......

I was celebrating it with my Inner self..............try it once........!!!!!
