About holidays and its futility..............


I always believed god has a great sense of humor. And when I see things around me, the way they are it makes my belief stronger.

Me getting philosophical ? Yeah sure why not? I ain't got anything else to do. We all waited for spring break with great zest. Little did we realize that we would spend it sitting idle and doing nothing. Thats why I say that god has got gr8 sense of humor. To have a rocking holiday u gotta have your finances in order and to achieve that you should be working. But, ironically when you start working you don’t get any kinda spring break.

Well, thats life and gotta take it all in your stride. I would have loved to fly out to my sister's place and spend couple of days with her but like i said for doing that you gotta have your finances in order.

Even though holidays are boring I at least got time to chill and relax. Also there is good news chinmayee's health is getting better and better by the day. I hope the gal pulls it off. I try and call her up every week, just to cheer her up. Meanwhile, sachin is going through rigors of Job training at banglore. When I think of both of them together, i always think what could have possibly come up had Chinmayee not been a bit stubborn. I have seen sachin really caring for her .They would have made a lovely couple but that was not to be.

As I said god has a strange sense of humor. Or may be I am too naive to understand complexities of life.

Nehal's Bday and Telegu Onslaught


It was nehals bday and the day began with home cleaning drive .Had we known that all our efforts would be in vain we would not have invested so much time in it.We decided to do away with pizzas this time and have some "bhajias " instead. It was physical exhausting to make bhajias for so many people and Khemkaji by having couple of beers made our task all the more difficult.

At quarter to 12 the telugu party arrived and seeing so many of them on nehals bday did surprise me a bit.At the stroke of midnight we asked the bday boy to cut the cake .All it took was few seconds before telugu party swung in action.Most of the cake could be seen on nehals face and still more was to come.Had he known about the amount of bday bums he is gonna receive nehal would not have returned home.

Initially, we joined them in beating him but as we realized that couple of guys are in inebriated state we had to become Nehal's "saviors" so to speak.We got opportunity to lay hands on Laxman and we did exactly that,not once but twice .After all we could not lat these guys away with what they had done.

Little jam and dance session at the end of party was rejuvenating. But all of us knew that most part of our sunday is gonna be spent cleaning the house.All in all it was good fun and we were happy that we got chance to get even with atleast one of the telugu boys. After all we could not let our roommate get beaten by guys who probably would not recognize him in campus.

Can't wait to go to bday party of one of the telugu boys.............
