Mumbai=Delhi

This is awesome... the winters in Mumbai are finally awesome... the temperature's are finally on par with Delhi!!!!... its close to 9 degrees, in mumbai... sitting in my apartment on the 7th floor, its an experience to sit on the window , look at the highway below, and do the usual... its bliss!! I exist in 7 degrees... For a person who has lived in Chennai for the last, 8 years, where the temperatures, are hot hotter and hottest, wearing a jacket is unusual, the cold weather is unusual....They say the winters will run out by this weekend, i just hope it goes on and on, before the summers run in.... All say, that, Mumbai is a city of, surprises... finally the unexpected, weather, has proved all of them right yet again!!! I love this city of surprises, I love Mumbai!!!....

Cracked Life:::::

I have a fractured ankle, I limp to work...I asked for an off, as I needed to rest...I wished my injury would not aggrevate....But then since I had worked my ass off for 2 months...my boss wants me to work for another week...its nice to see that people would miss you at work, but should I really care???? how would you feel in my position....I feel pretty shitty as if my hard work has lead to them taking me for granted....I might catch a flight bak home tom!!

It's Been long::::

It's been long since i wrote a post here.... frankly i have not had the time.. life s brought about a lot of surprises, over the last 2 months...

I have finally got what I wanted, my frnds back here in Mumbai would know what I am talking about, I am living it up... loving it, though life's all of a sudden become more hectic... MOre is not the word....

Man Utd. are on a high, with Ronaldo, signing his contract again... we will be rocking for years to come.... Indian teams in a mess... sad that their loss to Bangladesh spoilt a night of my trip to Goa, but finally, who cares, they don't why should we????

Mumbai's the place to be... I used to wonder when Sweta used to say that people, who have been brought up in Mumbai, will find it tough to survive elsewhere...I got my answer.. she was right....not for the first time....

Abhi-Ash seem to be on the front page of every paper, things will never change yesterday's breaking news informing all where the laddoos for their wedding wil be brought from... thats how life is... Life's a bummer as I used to say....it's very true...

Someone's being telling this to me now for long, that I have changed a lot... that someone was right i guess...

Its time to make one more trip back home... meet the loved ones, but I guess coming back this time will not hurt as much as the last time did....I know why and a lot of them know too :)

When the going gets tough.......

It's not been the best of days for me, the last fortnight being terrible, and Giri's tranfer news to Chennai, its sad that I have experienced certain things I never wanted to..... As this life of mine rolls on, there s a lot that I miss, a lot that I wish I could do, a lot I hope for....

Just typing out a few things I so badly want to do:::

* A smoke with Jagdish at Sai

* A dinner with Durga : Cos she makes me forget all

* A talk with Manish at the temple; I am pretty sure he knows where this place is

* A drink with Dad, before dinner, would love listening to his stories

* A pink lemonade a Shreya's place, she makes it damn well

* Pulling Neha's leg, that tops my list

* A chat at Rado with Rohit, Manish, Navneeth

* An SRK movie with Shweta, you bet, that's number 2 on my list

* An aimless 11.00 drive to Ascendas

* A late night hookah at Mocha

* All of us at Speed at saturday night

The consequences of a belting given by Mumbai apart from a lot of fun that I have had........

Annual Day 2007::: A lot of fun amidst a lot of confusion...

Ok!! Annual Day 2007, an event that I shall never forget not because it was not way too awesome, but for the fact that it was the first ever Patni Annual Day I had attended....I had a nice session across the table with Sai and Giri the night before....and it resulted in the usual...breakfast at 11...
To add to my miseries, I had to leave at like 12.30ish as I had to get there 2 hours before time, in order to get some details on what I had to compere upon..neways a bus ride to Borivali and a train ride to Jogeshwari, wasn't too exciting...My co-host Deepa, landed up late, and I am not blaming her for that, it's the company.....She got there, and it was 4, and by that time Vinod had also come along with Snehal. Annual day had started for us as soon as the drinks (ah ah drinks were cold-drinks) were being offered, and the three of us(Vinod, Snehal and I) gulped down 3, 4 glasses of all available.

Then I had to do my job, but the mikes hadn't arrived...finally it did, Deepa and me finished our job amidst all confusion....My group came along, and they were mostly found near the beverages stall...All throught the evening we kept on losing each other, amidst about 8000 people.....but finally managed to gather together before the DJ event...As the evening went ahead, along with food,boring speeches,awards,and a lot more, it was dinner time soon... The lines at the counters could probably cover the distance between Churchgate and Borivali, if all of us were made to stand in a straight line...After dinner was DJ time....Although the music was not that good, we had a lot of fun.... danced our hearts out for an hour....did a lot of shit that I cant mention about....newayz, Annual Day 2007 was an experience...

Finally at around 11 we all departed to wherever we had to go...105 patni buses going in different directions across Mumbai...All I knew was that I reached at 12.15 AM, as the ride back was home was an opportunity to catch up on a lot of lost sleep....

Cheers!!
