life's a pArty!!!!

Just got done with my mid terms of 2nd term and gosh life really is a party!! Well mid terms might just seem to be the obvious reason but read a bit here and bit there, mebbe u have something more in between to read.

i just got my pack of visiting cards and gosh they are cool…I mean the feeling is great, Mebbe for most this might just be the last of reasons to get happy and enjoy; believe me the same goes out for me ;).


I am happy!!!


The feeling is just so strong that I can’t resist….gleeeeeeeeeeeee to be precise!!! Soon I am going to purchase a new cell phn with latest cutting edge technologies (written too much read less, its not that gizmo which 007 could have potentially used in the latest flick but anyways, jus a normal thingy) but then the “why” question still hangs on…


This is not going to end so easily… I can keep circling on and on and onnnnn…..but is that which is making me happy. God I am not sadistic and am sane not insane…look for better reasons


But then what is it????


Help me figure out….would you…sure I think you just could help me….then y shouldn’t u…..i think there is no reason that you don’t….for I would then precisely tell what it is.

How couldn’t u figure out yet. Just a hint for the uninitiated: See the dates of the previous posts…….an eternal time spent…..

You are heading the right way but I see you wouldn’t settle for it till I give to you the reason in writing….so here’s it of course for me this is the joy of writing!!! The joy of being with you all again ;)

And by the way if u are convinced you jus better be coz u didn’t read between the lines. Ok so what that you have decided not to get personal and ask what it is I would tell you, that would surely be the very one, singled, secluded, isolated reason that life’s become a party.

If you still just couldn’t read it…well just to inform you I got my summers at MNYL – a JV between Max and NYL – a Fortune 68 company to be precise!!!


Thank God you figured out the real reason, but keep that unto yourself…let others try :-)



PS – After getting out of touch of writing this relle had to be arbit!!!!

pOlitically cOrrect

well i think i made a politically correct promise in the last post and i must agree to my disappointment that time management is becoming a huge problem here....most of the time is spent planning "how to utilize time" which again consumes time and leaves me....well i guess that u'll guess right. OK enough juggling of words i dont wanna waste this lil time available explainin my reasons which anyways dont amount to much....excuses are not a part of a manager's personality profile....oops my OCPS (business communication) concepts....must have been awake in class then!!
now i would briefly touch happenings here in a week tht come bak to my vivid imagination....
My Mentors B'day
well the first of b'days here, much to my consternation, happened to be of my mentors....well stop wondering y a b'day can be of consternation to me....here's how....
time 23:30
location: room opposite my room (all my neighbours' rooms are tht of seniors!!!) so pratically in the seniors room i see my mentor n some kind of weird activity going on.....i step in...asked abt his preparedness abt the b'day bash....well of course he was getting ready....infact even i should have....other seniors there ask my name and have a casual talk that revealed nothing that was going to come....unawares i m happy for my mentor and anxious to see how b'days are celebrated....this being the first one...excitement grips....
meanwhile there is commotion all over hostel, ppl being verbose and mobilized to churn out the max no. of ppl afterall first b'day must be celebrated with max no.......to make the max impact...
time 23:55
commotion at its peak, ppl start collecting in front of mess....a table is being setup....hysteria and anxiety in batchmates abound....b'day bash starts as the clock strikes midnight....n then dhoom dhishum dhadaaak.......uuuiiii....dhoom dhishoom dhadaaam......chhodddhh do....nahin abhi nahin...dhooom dhisshoom dhadaam.....ab to jaane do....aise nahin....cake all over face....this is my mentor!! then i roll in from within the hostel to the outside....seniors screaming where's mentee shobhit everybody screaming and i like a meek cat try to run away and there i am spotted!!! n then again jus like my b'day i get the bumps....ooh aah ouch....meine kya bigaadaa hai.....dhishum dhishum dhadaaaam.....uuuiiiii.....chalo yaar chhoddhh do ab...
revenge - i get my hands on three ppl... interesting relationship to get bumps for someone elses b'day but then....who can help when whole batch closes in on u....
my roomie also get bumps coz being mentees roomie n then the most hilarious mentees friend ahhh spells like roomie but is ronnie....he also get the bumps but his getting bumps has become regular feature here....we all enjoi getting our hands on.......keep wondering why?
well after all this we dhishum dhishum we all proceed to the canteen for the party....compensated well for the bumps...jus jokin...but ya had coffee maggi iiice T and last but not the least FUN!! thanks to my mentor vivek gawri!!!
this is it in the b'day section!!!
last sat nite we had freshers and another memorable party wen we danced till 430am n still didnt want to go....bunch of enthusiastic ppl here!!
bschool life is so much different so much fun and so much work all together...
yuhin chala chal raahi yuhin chala chal raahi
kitni haseen hai yeh duniya
bhool saare jhamele dekho phoolon k mele
badi rangeen hai yeh duniya....

tHe gReat eXperience!!

This has definitely been the busiest action packed, melodramatic time i have ever had.....or this just may be a prelude to what is going to be....whatever may be the case it is really gr8 spending time here and this is just getting better and better day by. And yeah me talking about my sojourn that began on 22nd night, my journey which has brought me to MDI - My Dream Institute!!!

Induction program was really great and well planned. The morning tryst of getting up, if at all we got time to sleep, relaxing thereafter with yoga and those 30-30 sec of naps in various aasanas was simply smart of us. Another set of activity was the Business Game where we had to manage a complete car manufacturing unit and i must admit being the CEO of that company gave a strange happy feeling, more so when we managed to pull off the highest profit levels after two quarters, and we came first. After that i also enjoyed the outbound exercises where we did many adventurous things like river crossing, burma bridge, trust fall, minefield, perfect squares and all. It was a great stress relieveing day with an awesome weather here. the treasure hunt exercise was absolute thriller and fun n i wont mind divulging a detail, we finished the treasure hunt sabse pehlea and it was awesome.

Now i would be more regular here, so keep visiting and be along in my journey.

finally!!

Its been two weeks when i started off on my tour :) muaaaaahhhhhhhhh (: must say fun filled two weeks, pretty hectic though, n tiring too specially the one in simla, did all sorts of things in 5 days dere, didnt imagine wud do all tht there....ok....ok.....i m coming to it.....stop cursing me for not coming on to the point.....but not as yet.....hehe.....ok i was wid my frens dere....though we had an arrangement of stayin in a flat dere...which i must say was good enough....it had the attraction of having a tv too dere.....however the only thing that played the spoilsport was water!!! The first day was rainin dere n it was damn cold must say in 14-15 degree celsisus region but i must say it was a welcome break from the heat of delhi. The neighbour dere who was a middle aged aunty told us that the water will come at noon.....n as we got all set waiting for water....our first encounter with water was phewwww.....we got shocked actually....it was white coloured frothy water.....that the neighbour claimed had air bubbles and thus was looking white......seems the simla nagar nigam arranges special water which can hold air bubbles for eternity.....coz the water was white even after an hr or so.......strange logic. After waitin for more time finally the condition of water comin in improved and we all got fresh with chilling cold water. Just as we were leaving for the mall aunty made another guest appearance with her lovely sweet daughter....the sight of whom was the only soothing thing about their presence and the much shocking news that was to come....aunty said "beta paani bhar liya na ache se.....ab paani parson hi aaye shaayad" in a husky voice. n we were lookin at each other blankly weighing and assessing the implications of the statement....was that white frothy thing water in the first place i asked myself and wondered if this white water was the reason behind her fair daughter.

leaving the water issues behind we took a bus to mall and bus tickets are so cheap dere in simla, the minimum denomination of ticket was Re.1, however mall was far n we took a 5 ka ticket for the journey till the lift dere. The Lift journey upto the mall was amazin too....we bought tickets tht werent checked inside lift and the lift journey was in two parts wondered what problems they had in constructing a single pillar upto the mall. However water still flooded our thoughts n we decided to shift into a hotel.....after much searching and ado we found a decent hotel however the hotel owner wasnt so.....we got insights into his doings from one friendly waiter of young age tht openly criticized his maalik and it was only his 9th day dere n wanted to stay a whole yr dere. since this is the on season gettin suites was difficult and we got a single room wid a promise of gettin a suite next morning......so we finally decided to settle the deal with a promise of 24hr supply of water....n we checked the same bfore takin the room.....6 ppl we were and tried fittin in the room....n we did coz our luggage was still in the flat. we were too tired to get it bak the same day.....so we decided to bring it in mornin and made an advance payment to tht uncle who soon was gonna become so khadoos we cudnt hv imagined. wen we were goin out for dinner he said beta 1030 se pehle waapis aa jaaana....we said WTH we r not gonna come bak bfore 1.....n then he started brabing "kya mein saari raaat jaagta rahoonga" told him plainly uncle chaukidaar rakh lo...we r not gonna move on ur sayings...we already began to had feelings ki galat hotel mein aa gaye...though much was left to be discovered wen we came bak...oh dont think on the lines ki hotel mein aane nahin diya...we got bak arnd midnight n tht sweet waiter let us in...wen we reached room n opened the tap not a drop of water was dere....that khadoos uncle had some valves in the control room thru which he regulated water supply....saw it for the first time dere.....though we got it opened raat ko.....n subah wen we came bak takin our luggage he was all too complainin ....said "raaat bhar light khuli chhodi.....ab paani bhi khatam kar daala" ufff looked as if we had shifted in some hostel where we werent allowed to move and werent allowed to use nethin...that was enough for us young tempers.....we checked out......and again the search for hotels began....it appeared as if we had come to visit all hotels dere at mall rather than the mall itself....

we cud have easily done our phd on simla hotels and were in a position to earn commission givin gyaan to people not saying ki we will take u to a good hotel but rather warning them ki dont go to this hotel....this was our condition.....though finally we got goood rooms at the ridge with 5 star quality service n more importantly water.....did so much for water dere......realized full importance of water in jus 2 days.!!! After the hotel searching spree we finally did horse riding, trekking, played cards, also planned to go to disc there RITZ the name was but the hotel affair had already made holes in our pockets n we decided to go to a disc in delhi only...finally arrived in kalka in mini train....that they say was connected to our kalka mail back to delhi.....though i had doubts abt the connecting issue....n was tensed as the mini train reached goood 15 minutes after the scheduled departure of our kalka mail but thank god our train was waitin dere....connecting u see.....n i heaved a sigh of relief....

but the journey was relle gr8...wid frens whom i spent quality time....n only god knows whether or not we all will be able to find such time in near future ahead....all ppl goin their ways....some in job n some like me continuiing as a student.....strange feelings of parting.....excitement about meetin new ones....all mixed up in my lil head.....though i manage well by not thinking abt all this n gettin along wid the flow....only to ravish unexplored shores :).....

sorry for the amount of blank space above but i was sifting thru al this blank space for 5 days ;) the next part of journey would be coming soon.....where i would highlight the worsening condition of indian rails....

cheers

sLow dOwn yOu cRazy cHild

A soundtrack from 13 Going On 30 -

Vienna

Slow down you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart tell me why
You are still so afraid?
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You better cool it off before you burn it out
You got so much to do and only
So many hours in a day

But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want
Or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
When will you realize...Vienna waits for you

Slow down you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be
Before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight
Too bad but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself
That you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
You know you can't always see when you're right

You got your passion you got your pride
But don't you know only fools are satisfied?
Dream on but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize
Vienna waits for you

Slow down you crazy child
Take the phone off the hook and disappear for a while
It's alright you can afford to lose a day or two
When will you realize...
Vienna waits for you.

But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want
Or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
Why don't you realize...Vienna waits for you
When will you realize...Vienna waits for you

Absolutely stunning song, beautifully sung and lyrics are awesome.....downloaded the movie for this song!!
Trying to flow wid the lyrics dese days....life has brought me in such a position....hehe was soundin serious....kill the joking line now....but ya very relevant to me....am slowing down but u knw i m gonna be the crazy child!!

Am going outta town for search of inner peace (ROFL hehehehe, man dat was the poorest of jokes ever....cheques and drafts welcome ;) ) going wid my frens so peace is the last thing expected...its gonna be a beautiful journey...to heck wid assgn for now.....so this is it there's gonna be a hiatus here....wld return on 12th and wonder when to post here abt the fond memories!!
till den God Bless us all and always!!

nEver eNding lOve

When i saw her i thought this -

In a world of her own –

She lives in a world of her own,
And she doesn’t want it to be known,
She has a different style and a lovely tone,
Slowly u fall for her and try to make her own,
But the seeds of love that you have sown,
U shall never see them fully grown,
I am warning you here, later don’t moan,
that I never told you she has a world of her own
And it better not be known
Because with time it will be known
to the person she chooses to make her own.

then i asked her-

The answer –

I asked her a simple answer,
But there was none to find,
And the whole thing just put me off my mind,
These series of events would never rewind,
May be she just didn’t know how much we were intertwined,
Just how much I had asked to find,
But her silence put me a blind,
There was darkness everywhere and none to find.

never relle had the courage to think ahead....have my previous answer with me

I admire those whom I hated
Because I know the worst is still awaited
I will also see that being portrayed
And I will feel all the more betrayed
My friendship was never made
And the love for friend turned into hatred
My heart was treated like a toy
And she used it as a ploy
Now the story is all clear
My eyes and heart full of silent tears

jaane kyun log pyaar karte hain, jaane kyun woh kissi pe marte hain,
jaane kyuuun, jaaane kyuuuuuun??

now waiting to rise in love rather than fall ;)
but the circle continues...
