My Experiments with “BABAJI KI BOOTI”


Marriage season… Yes, you heard it right…Marriage season... that’s what is continuing from the past 4 months and it seems, it’s going to continue for the next 2 months.

One of my friends has rightly said” The kind of pressure Facebook is putting on us, our parents have never put on us”.

Boooty… Babaji ki Booti……
Boooty… Babaji ki Booti……
(That’s my mobile ringtone: P)


Hello…

Hey dude…It’s me Krishnan

Oh, Krishnan... What’s up man? How are you?? It’s been long…

Dude, just called up to spill over good news...

Good news?? Plz don’t tell me that you are also getting married… I am bugged of all of this now...

I am sorry to disappoint u man… but it’s true!! I am indeed getting married …

Kya be saale… U also caught this infection … haddd hain…

Btw who is this unfortunate girl?? (: P)

What unfortunate saale... She is the luckiest girl in the whole world… (Krishnan was as usual a big narcissist)

(This boring talk went on and on…talking about the details of the girl and how they met and all….)


Oh btw, I am Murthy ( Naam tho suna hoga :P ). A normal human being with no big dreams (actually too lethargic to dream one), a bathroom idol…. live and let live is a simple funda of my life... I love peace….and yes, a piece of cake would also do. : P

I was invited to my friend Krishnan’s wedding which is scheduled to happen in Coimbatore….
 
But there was a bigger problem lying ahead for me… Asking for leave from my boss... I have already availed all my leaves citing all kinda excuses for the bunks I have done.  After mulling over a lot, I decided to tell my boss the truth for taking this leave.


Me: Sir, I was thinking if I could take a leave?

Boss:  Leave?? Hmmm… What reason do you have this time?

Me: Sir, my best friend’s wedding.

Boss: how many best friends do you have? For the past 6 months you had 8 best friends’ weddings.

Me: Sir, this is the 9th one. I mean, this guy is my ‘Real’ chaddi buddy. We grew up together Sir. If I don’t attend his wedding, he will feel really bad. I am sure he won’t go for his own wedding if I don’t attend his wedding. (I put a sad face). 

Boss: Hmmm…  I see… ok no problem…

Me: (excited) Thank you Sir…

Boss: But… (There is always a ‘but’) … you are working on this weekend and complete all your work before you leave for the wedding.

Me: But sir, it’s lot of work to be done…. How can I …. (He cut my sentence in between)

Boss: Can’t you do this much for your Best friend??

I nodded and came out of his room, cursing him from the bottom of my heart. But the best part was that I got a leave. Immediately, I called up Sudhan (a partner in almost all my crimes) to ask about his leave thing. He also got leave.



Finally… the D-day arrived when I had to catch a flight from Delhi to Coimbatore.

Sudhan caught a flight from Baroda to Coimbatore.

I reached Coimbatore in the evening and in a gap of an hour, Sudhan reached.  Krishnan came to the airport to receive us. . Reunion is always the best part of life. We all were together probably after a gap of 5 years. 

Krishnan drove us to a hotel, which he booked for us. It was around 8 PM. After that Krishnan bid us adieu after threatening us to be on time for the marriage.

Marriage was at 6.30 AM. Yes, it was morning 6.30, the next day. 

We got freshened up in the hotel room. I was changing channels on TV in my room when suddenly Sudhan comes in and splashes his bizarre idea (as usual).

Sudhan: Dude, wanna have some drinks.

Me:  ok!

Sudhan: how about some ‘BOOTI’ as well (winking)?

Me: Are you nuts. Krishnan has warned us to be on time.

Sudhan: C’mon don’t cry like a girl. We will make it on time. Trust me.
(Whenever he says “Trust me”, we always end up in trouble. Trust me.)

Me: But from where?

Sudhan: Don’t worry; I have a ‘Jugaad’ here.

Me: (perplexed)

Sudhan: Don’t even think about it. You won’t understand. Just follow me.

He talked to someone over the phone and the next thing I see, we are entering a moderately crowded fish market some 4-5 kms from our hotel.  We entered a shop where Sudhan had a small conversation with the shopkeeper and we got a packet in return for some money. 
It’s indeed true…. India is a country of “Jugaad”. 

We returned to our hotel room and ordered a bottle of Blenders Pride and then what, we started.

After an hour of drinking and fagging ‘BOOTI’, I was almost high but Sudhan was still in his senses.

Sudhan, I think we should meet like this once in 2-3 months dude. Now this is life man…This is life…  I hate my boss… I don’t understand what’s his problem.… why does he always cry on granting leaves. Arey   I have leaves left and I wanna utilize it. What’s his problem?? He only sees how many leaves I have taken rather than seeing how much I am burning my ass and working late nights,  ‘Jerk’ saala…
Btw what’s the time dude??

Sudhan: it’s 3AM dude.

(I panicked)  Fucking A**H***, we have to be there for the marriage by 6.30 and it’s already 3AM. I told you not to have all this but u don’t listen.  (My head was swirling and I felt like puking).
I puked and dozed off (don’t know when). 
Sudhan was usual relaxed and continued fagging. And then he also slept.

We had an awesome sleep. But the only thing which bothered us was when we woke up.

We woke at around “2” in the afternoon.

“Holy Shit” It’s 2 PM saale. Wake up L****.  The wedding is over. We are still here.
They must have left for Chennai... I told you not to experiment all this a day before the wedding especially when we have come so far to attend the wedding.

Sudhan was as usual; calm and chilled out. Not worried.
Sudhan’s only statement was “chill dude. Atleast we had fun. We would apologize to him. He will understand. After all we are wishing him the very best from the bottom of our hearts. Because of him atleast we took time out and had fun. That’s what is needed in life. So chill”.

I was totally puzzled after this statement. I can’t understand him. He is mad.
We packed our bags and headed to the airport. My Flight was in the evening and his was at night.

During my flight travel, I was lost in my own pensive thoughts…… "I took leave for the wedding …worked overnight to take the leave… Spent so much of money for the flight tickets…came till Coimbatore to attend the wedding and finally I didn’t attend the wedding. I think I have touched the peaks of madness.

What will I say when my boss asks me about the wedding? That I went till Coimbatore to have a bottle of BP and a packet of ‘BOOTI’ (which was indeed awesome btw: P)."

I landed in Delhi and reached home.

But gradually I realized that Sudhan was right indeed. I enjoyed thoroughly. It was indeed the best and weirdest trip of my life.

I know I have to call up Krishnan and cut a sorry figure but it’s Ok. He will understand.
 I was indeed giving him the best of wishes from the bottom of my heart.

“May he & his wife have a wonderful life together and have all the happiness throughout his life “

Finally, Switched off all the lights and went to sleep!!!




PS: I have written something after a gap of 3 years probably. So, Padke acha laga tho comment karna… nahi tho main waise bhi khush hoon: P

Boredom To The Core


Sitting on the 6th floor of my office,
Watching outside the glass pane!
Waiting for the time to crawl pass by
With the emptiness of my brain !!

All my work has been completed,
I have nothing to do!
Sipped 2 cups of coffee,
And tapping on the floor, my polished black Shoe !!

Nothing interests me today,
Not the internet,
Not even my mobile,
I guess, it’s time for me to introspect !!

I try to talk to my colleagues,
And also I call my friends!
But all are busy,
I think it’s a conspiracy,
I guess, have to  follow the trends!!

 I feel tired,
Tired of doing nothing,
Tired of sitting idle & Think !!
.
Feel like dancing around,
And shout on the top of my voice!
But I am bound to maintain decorum
I don’t have any kinda Choice !!

Finally, I write a poem
And put my brain at work,
What else can I do?
Even though I’m going berserk !!

Campus to Corporate

"Writing poetry without a rhyme
Seems to be an amusing pass time”
The more the work, the more you are mired,
But without work, your mind feels more tired!!

Coming from college directly into corporate,
You will find people of various kinds,
With whom we gotta work, learn and cooperate!!

Gone are the heydays where bunking was fun!
And yes Placement committee, how can I forget,
Not even a day passed without any strife!!
But now, reports, excel sheets, policies & Customer meets,
Have become a part of life!!

Even though I miss my college days,
Corporate life has its own share of charm!!
It had inculcated in me, the habit of waking up early,
Without putting any kinda alarm!!

 I have become matured & Responsible!
(Ok...... fiiineee..… To some extent)
But yes, it is indeed possible!!

Corporate life has instilled in me,
A passion to pursue my hobbies!!
But my memories still linger,

In those unforgettable Hostel lobbies!!!

YE 'S' - 10


21st July,2011

Venue: World cup final, Mumbai
We needed 6 runs to win the world cup and last down.1ball remaining and 6 runs needed. I came out in the middle. The whole stadium was impregnated with tension. Malinga was bowling the last bowl of the match. Malinga had a fire in his eyes. I was lil scared but was having full confidence in myself. Malinga threw the ball. I came lil forward and hit the ball high in the air. There was a fielder in the boundary, but the ball left him way behind. It’s a six. I couldn’t believe myself that I did it and won the cup for the country. Everyone ran towards me and lifted me with lots of applauds and accolades. I felt very proud of myself.

Venue: Rock-show, Bangalore
I was playing a guitar in a rock show. Girls have become crazy about me, shouting my name “Murthy, I Love You” and fighting with the security personnel to come on the stage to give me a hug or probably a kiss (heights of optimism).

Venue: Secunderabad Railway station
I was in Chennai express leaving to Chennai. I stood near the door of the coach and saw everyone waving their hands to their loved ones as the train leaves the station slowly. Suddenly, what I see is a beautiful girl in black jeans and pink top with her hair fully open, running to catch the train and shouting “ MUUUUURRRRTTTTHHHHHYYYY”. “Did she… did she just shout my name?”asked to my fellow passenger . Adding to my joy she was running to get into my coach. This reminded me of SRK and Kajol in DDLJ. Without any further delay, I leaned forward to provide her a helping hand. I got hold of her hand and pulled her in. She said “Thanks” and we were happily smiling ever after.

“Murthybabu come n take arti and prasadam”. It was my grandma.

I was in Hyderabad to attend one of the bhajans organized by my grand- parents for something I have no idea of what. And yeah, this is what I do... “Day- Dreaming” whenever I am made to attend any of the religious stuff and trust me, I am very good at it. And btw these are my dreams which I am waiting to happen actually except the 1st one which is impossible at this stage.

My train was at 5P.M back to Chennai. It’s been a really boring two days in Hyderabad.

I reached station at around 4.30. My train was standing on platform. I went near my coach and saw the chart (the first thing I do before boarding a train). To my disappointment there were no girls of my age in my bogie. All were either way older or oldest. I don’t understand why it always happens with me. I always share my compartment with oldest of aunties, snoring uncles and wailing infants. Yes , all the time.

The train journey was smooth and boring till 1.30 A.M.
At around 1.30 AM, I felt very thirsty. The train stopped in a station named ‘Kavali’ near Nellore.

I got down to buy a bottle of water. Quenched my thirst and came back only to find out that the door of my coach was locked from inside.
I tried to open it but in vain. There was no one around. Everyone was asleep. I ran to the other coach which was also locked.

‘WTF, screwed’ I thought.

I was shuttling between the bogies. Ran from S-10 to S-2 in a hope that at least one of these bogie’s door would be open but to my dismay none were open.

I started to panic now as the train was given signal to move. My luggage was in there.
I ran in search of general bogie. It was in the other end of the train. I didn’t know what to do… I was also searching for emergency windows so that at least I can try getting in and face the consequences later on. I gave up my efforts and decided to catch up the next train or something. I was literally cursing the guy who closed the door of my bogie from inside.

The train started to move. Then suddenly in S-8, I saw a police-man doing his night patrolling I guess. I shouted out to him. Explained him whatever I could while running and literally begged him to open the door. He was lil reluctant in the starting but then I guess, he saw my cute and innocent face (that’s what Girls say :)) and opened it. The train was catching its’ pace. Finally, He opened it. I was running and somehow got into the train.

I thanked him. Explained him properly. And finally came back to my compartment. Was fully exhausted mentally and physically. I thought I could never make it but by God’s grace I did.

‘Never ever, I would get down at midnight again’ I thought.

After that incident I woke up at around 6AM only to find out that the train halted in a station named ‘Ponneri’ for more than an hour. It seems a goods train got derailed. So, all trains were stopped. I was waiting near the door; (yes u heard it right, again near the door of S-10)

There were talks going around that it will take another 2-3hrs for the trains to get clearance. I was waiting near the door. It was 7 AM then. Suddenly, out of nowhere one hand was approaching an area of mine (on which only I had access to) from behind. I made a quick move and protected myself. I looked around to find out 2 eunuchs.
Honestly, I am very scared of them.

They were asking for money.

I replied I don’t have any “bhaiya” (stammering).

They were like “bhaiya kisko bola re” ( whom are you calling brother) in their typical inflection and were coming near me.

I told them Sorry and gave them 50 bucks. Thank God they left. I had a sign of relief after that. Seriously I tell you, now days, guys are also not safe. We can’t even travel alone in trains. God bless us. 

And yes, it also happened near that S-10 coach door. (I guess there was some kinda last birth connection between us) 

I was losing my patience. Then I decided to catch a bus and go. So, I took my luggage and got off the train.

I came out and caught a bus to Chennai which was worse than train journey.

As there was huge rush, I could not get a seat. That’s ok. Standing is not a problem. I can do that.

But standing in the same place and in the same posture, not even having space to even lift my hand and scratch my head, is something u should imagine.

Yes, I did come like that. Imagine my plight there. On top of it, sweat odor from everywhere. Was feeling suffocated. But there was no other option.

I stood like that for 3 and half hours . Finally, I made it Chennai somehow.

I called up my boss and took leave. Rested the whole day.
The first thing I did was to take shower for around 1hr.

This was the worst journey of my life. Never even dreamt of like that in my wildest of dreams.

God Bless me!!

P.S: -
1) it’s been a long time since I posted anything.

2) had nothing substantial to write, so wrote something . kindly bear with me and yeah, don’t forget to leave the comment. A good comment is appreciated even though u didn’t like it…. Hehe..

3) And yeah, always carry your deodorant or perfume wherever u go. U never know when u might need it.  :)

CAT-'A'-CLYSM

“Its July 2010 dude… we have completed 1yr in job… what do u wanna do in future?” Vineet was asking me, Harsha and Satish. I told i wanna go for MBA as I was no more interested in Engg. Subject. And I was pretty much interested into Marketing as you get know more people and stuff. Vineet, Harsha and Satish also concurred with me and said they also wanted to go for MBA. Seriously yaar, wanna get out of this shitty job. I am not at all enjoying it.

We went back home that day and surveyed about the prospects of studying from an IIM and the kind of pay packages they get in hand. We were totally into it and started dreaming of what all stuff we can do and buy with that much money as if we have already got into IIMS and also got job offers from there. Dreaming was at its peak.

We took an oath that we would not go to any movie nor to any concert till our CAT exams were over. We took an oath to study at least 3hrs at home after coming back from the office. We started our Cat prep seriously… Started doing all quant, verbal and DI questions.

I can assure you we didn’t watch any of the movies which got released last year …. No... not even by downloading it. Our full concentration was on CAT. We didn’t even start watching “how I met your mother”. Trust me we don’t know how who met, God knows whose Mother. And not even 10 seasons of “FRIENDS” – twice.

We joined the TIME test series. It was going great... We all were scoring great. As far as I am concerned, I never scored in 40’s and 50’s percentile which kept me going and in fact boosted my confidence. I filled all the application forms like MDI, IMT Ghaziabad, S.P Jain etc as I knew I can easily score 90 percentile as I was scoring in my Mock test series.

Finally, my CAT test date came. I went and wrote it calmly without any kinda tension. I attempted around 35 questions. It was good overall. Finally, as per our oath we went for the movie. Enjoyed our December like anything.

Finally new year…. Year 2011… yeah before I forget Happy new year to all…

Finally today, our results came… I got 99.97 percentile…. Call from all the IIMS. Almost same was the case with my friends-Harsha, Vineet and Satish. I called my parents and told them about my result. They felt very happy... They felt very proud of me which made me proud of myself. I called and told all my friends. I was on the top of the world.

We four decided to bunk office today which we did and went to party hard. Firstly, we went for “NO ONE KILLED JESSICA”. At around 1 PM to Escape IN Express Avenue mall (which is actually the biggest mall in Chennai and also where beautiful chicks in and around Chennai hang around and the only reason why all the guys always go there). Our movie was over by 4.30 P.M we had lunch properly which we forgot to have in the sheen of excitement.

After sometime we were kinda jaded so we decided to go to Marina Beach. As soon as we went there, we saw some foreigners were playing beach volleyball. We went up to them and joined them. They were from U.S. They came here on a tour, it seems. There were totally 3 girls and 4 guys. Trust me people; those girls were the most beautiful u must have ever seen. Milky white complexion, red lips and brownish hair. They had brown eyes. Gosh, they were beautiful.

I totally fell for Rose (one of the three girls in my team) not only because of her beauty but also for her name… Rose….. Rose... Wow what a name… it’s like, an electric current is passing through my body whenever I take her name. ‘Rose’… See I just got the shock again… :)

We started playing the game. After some time, rose asked me if I wanted to give her company as she was tired of playing and wanted to rest near the shore. I was jumping from happiness that out of all people she asked me… Although, I didn’t show any of my emotions. I winked at my friends and went with her.

We went and sat near the shore pretty much close to each other… we were seeing the sunset. After spending some time together, my heart was cajoling me to ask her out. I wanted to but I was lil scared. But I had to do it as if not now, I can’t do it ever.
I took a deep breath and asked her out. “Rose, I love you” I am totally lost in you. I can’t imagine any other girl other than you”
She seems to be very happy. She said” you are so sweet” and was about to tell something when suddenly, I couldn’t hear her… her lips were moving but I couldn’t hear her voice.
Then suddenly, one slap from her. I was thinking “what the fuck is happening”?
She threw some water on me and was telling me in slow motion…
“ waaaaaaaaaaakkkkke uuuuuuuuppppppppppppppp”

'What' I said?

She again said “waaaaaaaaaaaakkkke uuuuuuupppppppp” and again threw water on me….

I woke from my sleep. It was my roommate who started throwing water on me…
Wake up dude, wake up… its 7 AM. Today CAT results are coming. Get ready to see your results.

I was like “What… we already got our results yesterday rite?? Btw what am I doing here? Where is Rose”???

Satish was confused and told” Dude u must have had a dream? And btw who is Rose? “Asked with a sardonic smile….
Oh shit… It was just a dream… just a dream…. Shit man…
I woke up and got ready by 8AM. Then four of us sat down to see our results.
First, Sriharsha- 92.75 percentile
Then, Satish – 93.5 percentile.
Then Vineet- 97.5 percentile.
Finally I saw mine and was devastated. I got 90.15 percentile…

All four of us were screwed... No one got calls from any of the IIMS… Screwed really…. We wouldn’t even get calls from other institutes as we didn’t apply to any... Thanks to T.I.M.E for boosting up our morale…
We all should have stuck to our oaths…

Shiiiiiiiiittttt…………

We calmly went to our office without speaking of anything about CAT. I was disappointed about CAT but more than that I was missing “ROSE”….
God Damn…. Shit maaaannnn….. 1 more year in the company…. 


P.S: All my fours friends’ names are real and have not been changed in spite of their request.

The Most Humorous Post ever written in Blog History

First of all!!! a big "HIIIII" to everyone.

It has been a long time since, my last post was posted. I wanted to write but there had been a series of events which bamboozled me and put me in a state of comatose and moreover no net connection.

Now, that I am stable (not that I was delirious) and acclimated and on top of it, a high speed net connection would like to pen in the series of fortuitous events which happened in a span of 3 days.

So 'guy’s n gals' fasten your seat belts to have a roller coaster ride to venture into my weird world.

BTW, I AM VERY SORRY ABOUT THE POST TITLE. I LIED…. :) :) :)

To start with:

FACTS:

1. It’s true that we, residents of PETRONIWAS (our bungalow) have avowed to our house owner that we (8 out of 8) will be vacating the house by July end.

2. It is indeed, true that I forgot my mobile in my jeans and put it in washing machine for surf excel wash.

3. Our house owner is an avaricious guy. God bless his tenants!!!

INFERENCES:

1. Yes, u got it right. It was the end of the July month and we didn't search of any of the houses and that means we are literally on roads.

2. That means, we are “SCREWED”.

3. About my mobile, yeah, it has become clean, not even single dirt on it. Seriously, Surf excel works. And regarding the working part, you will get to know eventually.


29th July 2010

Around 6pm

We were all sitting in one room and discussing the possible options. We even tried to abjure our owner to let us stay in the house for 2-3days ,so that we could find a place to live in. But Thanks to his greedy nature, he rejected our plea saying that the other party is gonna occupy from 1st and they had paid the advance.

We had no other options, Thanks to our laziness of finding houses. Trust me; I am sure majority of the guys hate it.

Everyone was trying to connect to some or the other broker, trying their level best to get some kinda relief from somewhere. Even I was trying to call some of my office friends to ask them if it's possible for some of us to stay with them for 2-3days. I was trying to call my office friend but the call used to get connected to someone else.

I tried calling my Office friend but it went to my roommate Vineet and imagine we talking over the phone staying in the same room.

I again called but this time it went to someone else.

On this, Vineet was telling me to keep on tryin so that we can get a girl's number at least. we were laughing but deep inside everyone was cogitating.


30th July---

Today, we all went to office feeling somnolent as we didn't sleep the whole night thinking of all the possibilities. we had to vacate the house the next day.

Thankfully, our colleagues have come to our rescue. eight of us divided in 4groups and planned to stay in some of our colleagues houses but the bunglow matter didn't close yet.

Our house owner gave us half of the advance ammount which he took from us in the starting, which he said he has cut it for some maintenances and other crap.

Seriously, we were cursing the person who started the advance system. People like him would eat away all the amount.

In the mean time we were talkin to all brokers and lookin into the house matter. As usual my great phone was connecting me to different varieties of people ranging from old people to children except the number which I wanted to reach. And also it took great care, not to connect me to any unknown number of a girl also.

Damn!! my God damn phone...


31st July----

Finally the day has come. We had to vacate by evening. We took leave from office shifted our base to our friends house bidding adieu to our beautiful bunglow. In the afternoon, we were again trying to call brokers.

This time i wanted to try out from my phone for the last time.

I called!!!

Ring was goin on....

i was praying... Please God! Not this time please...

Suddenly, someone lifted the call....

It was a lady's voice....

Oh God not again....

But this time guess it was destined. The lady, who picked up, was also looking out for tenants and then what, in no time we were in her house. We liked the house. Paid the advance and were quite relieved.

But the day didn't end there...

In the evening, when everything was over, we went for a movie to feel good again. We went for "INCEPTION" in PVR.

In the interval, I came out of the theatre to have a drink for myself. i was feeling good that finally we got a house but my mind was preoccupied with something don't know.

I went inside the theatre and took my seat. It was more than 5min over but the movie was not starting. some Tamil movie trailers were goin on. Then, suddenly a beautiful girl comes near me and says “Excuse Me”.

Me, in style after looking her.—“Yes”

She was wearing Black gown with black stilettos (That’s what it is called I guess) with a comely appearance.

Her –-- "you are sitting in my seat".

I checked my ticket and told her that it was my seat.

She saw my ticket and told me that I had come in the wrong theatre.

Then, I looked around. None of my friends were there.

Shit!! I came in screen 3 instead of screen 4. And those were not Tamil trailers. That was actually a Tamil movie being screened.

She started smiling at my unfortunate circumstance.

I told her sorry and ran towards the exit repenting -why the hell didn’t I book for this Tamil movie.

I came out and went in the screen 4 and this time i was careful.

I took my seat. Was relieved seeing my friends around.

When I told what happened during interval, everyone couldn't control their laughter. Even the ones who were waitin for the local were smiling.

Goddamn!!

Went home i.e. my friends house, and slept well after three long days.

The next day we shifted to our house. But the worst part was, we spent we spent almost the whole of salary for the advance and other settlements.

It was just the starting of the month and we were out of money.

The whole month we ate in dhabas saving each penny and didn't even hit malls till today.

Eagerly waiting, for our next month's salary, to start living properly.

Seriously those 3days were horrible...

Now when I look back, I think everything happens for good only.

P.S:- 1. Till now i didn't have my call connected to a girl. It is still uncles and aunties pickin up. "God! MERA NO. KAB AAYEGA".

2. Next time, anyone by mistake goes in other theatre, make sure u don't tell anyone... Otherwise u r screwed like me...Now, i double-check whenever I go for any movie.

3. Washing your phone in washing machine (with Surf Excel) removes not only dirt on it but also its inside memory. Don’t know about other washing powders. Just try out…. JJJ

An Apple a Day keeps All Your Worries Away

In MY Office,
Chennai,
Around 3PM.

Today, I was in a meeting room attending a so called "MEETING" with my seniors and colleagues. I was not at all present in the office today, the whole day, Mentally.
I was lost deep in my pensive thoughts.

My senior was telling something but nothing was going into my head.... I was sad, don't know why.... I was not able to concentrate anywhere or to anything nor was I talking to anyone. was quite the whole day.

"Why am i sad today?? what has happened to me?? why am I so frustrated today? ". I was not able to figure out answers for this.

"What was I and see what have you become today? "talking to myself like a soliloquist.

My school and college days were good in fact awesome... I had loads of fun, Masti and action in my life. No responsibilities and no worries... lots of happiness and yeah, of-course Academic pressure which, now I feel was fun...

lots of night-outs with flasks and flasks of Tea and Coffee gulping down... I remember,in my school days, my Mom used to stay awake the whole night during my exams and keeping an eye on me and waking me up whenever I was somnolent. I have to agree My mom did more of hardwork than me.

"Where have those days gone?? Why have days moved so fast? why don't I want to go to office everyday ? Why am I not liking this corporate world ??

I remember, In my school days, we used to go to school no matter what. We wanted to to attend classes not because of the subjects i guess, but merely because of friends , with the thought of having fun in class and yeah of-course to meet 'GIRLS'.

Even though the lectures were boring , we used to make it interesting with our Book-Crickets,Gossips,Chit-chatting etc..etc... And yeah, how can I forget about the long chatting session over the phone after school.

No... Not with the girls... With Sudhan and Ankit, about girls,making strategies,thinking of pranks etc..etc...

(PS: This doesn't mean there is something wrong with us... We are very much straight ...It's just we are the best of buddies hanging around.. :))

And in college, we used to bunk classes and assemble in someone or the other's room and do some random stuff. We used to be there only the whole day ... Together...having loads of fun...

But, now life has changed... People have become busy... All are in their own world...

People say , we have grown up... we have great responsibilities now... People have become Career orientive.

Even though, I have got all kinds of freedom , earning and spending my own money, I feel I am Devitalized.
Life has become Monotonous or you can say mechanical.

I wish ,I had a TIME_MACHINE... i could have gone back to the golden era of my life.
Now , i know why people say "school and college days are the golden period of anyone's life".

I was cribbing the whole day until I came home and had a glass of lassi and an Apple ,which took away all my worries,...

I was chilled and was feeling exhilarated now...

I was laughing at myself for that whole episode in that office...

I guess, sometimes we feel low for no reasons.. You keep on cribbing for everything.

As people say" AN IDLE MIND IS A DEVIL'S WORKSHOP". I guess that was the case....

Now, I am relieved... Very happy with my life with the way it is....

And yeah, trust me guys... I have become responsible even though li'l childish at Heart... I don't mind being like that...

Hoping for a Wonderful day tomorrow with loads of work and fun...

Sorry everyone, for bugging you all... Venting out my today's frustration...
I felt like penning it down, so, I did...

P.S- I appreciate you all for reading the whole episode patiently and wasting your precious time.....


Anyways i am signig off now....
Ciao-nara..
