Welcome 2010!

Just back from party at Jinie's place. Affectionate he is, no one can say no to him.. Disclaimer: Not many people know each other here, just a crowd of strangers, so dance and be merry.. The second perfect thing was the host whose house was actually used for the party.. He is the best possible entertainer anyone would have come across. Some people are so lively that they can infuse life is anyone who even brushes against them.. :D Music was coming from the laptop of host, a hut like dance floor.. Songs like Scilia, kajrare, punjabi numbers.. Ok!! i know there is no trend, but then who cares.. :) 2 hours of good fun and yes we have those cheers smiley happy pics captured.. a new year with unknowns and yet so lovely..

N, S.. I miss you guys as always.. You have been with me since my childhood, the years when we had no money for parties, no fancy clothes, no loud music, just the peanuts, gajjak, rajai, some games and lots of innocence and love for each other.. Every little thing made us happy.. You know what? Nothing can beat that. Right at mid night, amidst loud music, all that i could think of is those wonderful days.. Its not the perfection, its the little fun talks we shared, dreams we nourished and plans we made.. This year sees N in Los Angeles, S in London and me in Blore.. i am happy that we all have moved on for better in life, our plans did not go waste, but we should rewind and relive atleast one day this year. :)

Bye Bye 2009

My Dear Blog!! Love you, you have been the cutest of all things i value.. And as i bid goodbye to 2009, i want you to know that you will remain to be my fav. So, do you know what did i get on new year eve?? A t shirt "I will try to be nicer to you, if you try to be smarter".. A lovely yellow t shirt saying " happy fish"... A pink eye pencil and lots of other stuff.. How much i love being a girl.. :) I loved the year that went by, and i thank God for the wonderful moments he gifted me with.. I am sure 2010 will be even better, after all its my life, it has to get better and better and better.. :) And yes, i am heading for the party, else we would have had a nice long walk down the memory lane..

Sorry, i forgot to tell you about the earring!! they are good too.. give me loads next year plz... :D

Addiction..

They say nothing succeeds like success. It gives you the kind of high which diminishes all other aspects of life. But then how about someone who has always been on a high?? Is it not dangerous to face the fact that life is not always same?? I met someone like that today, who probably failed for the first time in life.. Totally unable to let go.. I somehow lost respect for all the glory around the being.. If you cant take success and failure with equal grace then you are not educated and you are not matured enough to lead and grow.. Life will never show same colors, it has to give fair deal to all, if the deal is tilted towards your side, feel good, but dont take it for granted.. Success is niether a habit nor an addiction, it can very well go as it comes.. Do your best and understand that sometimes others best might beat yours.. If you are anywhere near successful learn to smile and improve and grow, dont give up..

New Year Grows...

I was wondering what possibly could be the best things to do on new year??
- Travel - Visit some cool destinations
- Party - Choose the best party in town and just go and have fun
- Cake at home - This might sound boring to most, but this is how i spent most of my new years in childhood days, watching the new year programme on TV, cuddled in a rajai, cake and food and with papa.. Trust me nothing in this world can match the welcoming new year that way....

So, i start with Travel - one of the most favoured destinations in India on new year is Goa and 2 years back we went to a place called karvar near Goa to welcome the year.. Since it was slightly off Goa and we went for a camping trip, it was far away from madding crowd and an aamzing experience. The water came till our camps during high tide and the dance floor was right by the river side. It was awesome fun. Got to do with the people i went with and also the location we chose. Next year was ISB, and yes we did go to the cruise party(dont ask me where was the cruise:P), the ship had a dance floor, NO, it wasnt great, but we all together totally enjoyed what was on offer.. :) Though not on new year, but this jungle resort type of place in Dandeli could be another place to visit during new year.. The place is again established on river side and in general very calm and peaceful. Kerela could be a place to go to, but i dont know why, i feel its too talked about nd everyone is always there.. Next could be LEH, Ladakh.. wooooo.. i so badly want to visit ladakh.. Next Year, i am going there for sure..

Party- So, this is usually the most difficult part.. You want to stay in city, you dont want to stay at home and you dont want to go to a party which is not your type of music and which has cheap and drunk crowd.. Difficult choice.. Specially music can kill the point.. If the DJ is bad then you have almost spoiled your evening.. This happened with me once.. Some of the friends got booking done.. I followed like a loyalist.. I realized the music was bad, food was even worse and people were looking at you as if thats their only focus in life.. Finally, we decided to move out of the place and come back to home, watch movie in my friend's home theatre, ordered domino's pizza and talked our heart out about everything..

So, whats the safest bet?? I want to go back home and spend time with my family, play with my nephew and begin new year with people i love the most.. However, if that does not materialize, i would want to stay with my best pals and probably welcome the new year with them peacefully, does not have to be a fancy travel or party this time, i want to save these moments for life..

3 idiots!!

This movie is a must watch for some of the most cheeful moments. Best fun was, today was another day, when i reached the movie hall last minute with friends. I had got the tickets done online and the transaction was successful, while the money was taken from my account, i did not have th tickets booked. I have a simple philosophy in life if i have come to watch the movie, i better watch it. I just told the ticket counter guy, we need to watch the movie, whats the option and i just have 10 mins. The guy guided me to a person on front counter. I had a small round of negotiation with him, he directed me to a small gallery behind the cinema and i discovered that behind running of all the gold class and super hot malls, there are simple doors where people sit to make these operations smooth. On the oldest posible computer, he booked some tickets for an audi which was added last minute to adjust such goof ups. I was amazed at the customer service of PVR today.
I ran with the confirmation numbers got the tickets and we barged into the movie hall. After all the run, early morning wake up, the movie was every penny worth it. Amir khan was at his best and the humour was a total connect. All in all, must watch and yes please do goof up with systems, thats when you get to know what keeps the perfect systems running. I saw a lot of things which back the running of PVR, thanks to the goof up.

The Countdown..

So, this was a fun night.. nothing new.. as always, nandi, shiks, me and trust me aunty is spoilt since she has come here, she laughs her heart out with the crazy gang.. (Caution!! We can make a corpse beg to Hell Master to give him some life to laugh.. ) The topic of discussion was the fact that i had booked the ticket of movie 3 idiot for 10 AM on a holiday.. :D (Yours truly, you have to be sincere and on time when it comes to movies, akhir life mein har cheez time to time honi chahiye).. Well, the issue is - the movie is shot in IIMB, i like Amir khan( no, i am loyal to Ranbir Kapur and Tom Cruise, and.. OK!! I know i am using the word loyal, but then i like all, i always like all things without bias.. all goooood things i mean.. :P).. and then its supposed to be a fun movie.. I mean, its ok to getup at 7 AM on a holiday and watch movie.. Its all alright!! Why do you live and earn? ( I am not expecting the reply to be " to watch movies", but then something like that.. ).. But then i got into my serious convincing mode, such that anyone would ahve thought that the only motive to live is to watch this movie at 10 AM in morning, if you dont do that world will come to an end before 2012.. Shiks just gave up, knowing me she knew i could make a case around it and this probably is the best movie anyone could have ever watched even before its ratings came out.. having settled the movie part, we moved on to my relocation part.. I mean when will i go, what date, how, from where? Imagine! Did i ever think so much about life?? I will go, one day, somewhere, sometime to someplace from someplace.. The food has to be asian veg and yes i dont drink alcohol (thats kind of certain :P, some things i know, dont have to struggle with that) ..

By the end of the day, we all live to have fun and sleep with a smile, and i have seen that most arbit and senseless things have maximum value in life.. I know these days are may be last 15 days of my stay here, but i will live them to the fullest..

Here this day of my life is dedicated to my fav song these days - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTuY6JCsK-M

"Did you notice the Alisha's voice in this song??"

Change..

They say change is inevitable, a part of life.. I kind of understand it and adapt to situations.. But some places give you such fond memories that despite knowing everything you want to stick on to it.. Bangalore from may to dec 2009 is one such part of my life.. In Kris Gartner's style i would say, "this part of my life is called happyness". :) I loved my batch and everyone in it from the bottom of my heart for all the smiles and laughter which i so badly needed in life..15 of us from different IIMs and ISBs. No connection to begin with and slowly we became a part of life.. Lunch together, houses around, office discussions and help at every step. I have this nasty habit of asking the same thing 100 times, i am sure people thought that either i was dumb or i irritated them, but they took it with a smile.. Its getting over, all are moving out.. Everytime someone goes, i have this feeling that its all getting over and somewhere i wish i could stop it but then i know things have to move on..
It was not just the batch, nandini, Shikha, my neighbour, hampi travel group.. everyone just added to the memories.. The thought of getting away is quite challenging, the change i want to resist, but my mind says you need to move on in life.. Everyday night for one hour i struggle with this..I know things never remain same, but these were good times and you just want them forever.. Future's uncertainity is always difficult on us.. I know on papers everything about my future is good.. But i will miss the fun i had here, i am not sure if i will get so many people of similar mental level to talk to and crack jokes with.. My home which was always a weekend away for me, will be very far..
I am resisting a change which is good for my life .. everyday i just pray to God and think that some miracle will happen and same life will be replicated in my new location or he will just keep me here.. something.. God, "This part of my life is called praying to you, i really really leave it all on you as always.. "
