Happy Diwali

Its time again to celebrate the festival of Light. :)

The best part is that everyone is busy with one or other thing shopping, cleaning, rangoli, sweets, new dresses, crackers etc. all this are the soul of Diwali.

HAPPY DIWALI

27/10/07

I have been thinking about writing this post from one week. Actually it’s nothing special as such, but it was special to me.
I have been going out with friends for Birthday Parties, Friendships day, Valentines Day and all other days, which are meant to be special.

Even 27th Nov, was one such day Then what make it so special that I am writing this blog. It was my office Diwali Treat. My first ever office party. I heard lots of story about office trip and parties from my friends and seniors but never got chance to experience myself. Now even I can share my opinion.

We went to a place call ‘Forest Café’, a very nice place. But the best part was that it has a DJ playing all rocking number. As I love dancing what more could I ask for?
The food was good, I got to try different cuisine, and as long as Chinese cuisine is there I don’t have any complain. I had a blast.

Plus point was that I came to know more about my colleague in other department. Usually we are so caught up in our on department that there is not much interaction. So, these kinds of opportunity break the ice.

And to add Cherry on the cake it was my Director’s Birthday.
So it was a double celebration for me.

;)

Thank you for being a part of my life

It’s been many months that we have been together.
We have gone through many things.
I have known you more with everyday
We have our happy days and not so happy days.
But the best part is, We are still the same

Still remember the first time I heard your voice
First time I met you
Remember the first time you say “I Love You”
Felt that the best thing happen to me
But the best part is, You always surprises me

Days turn into weeks, weeks turn into months
Sometimes we don’t have much time for each other
Sometimes distance plays a negative role
Life seem quite busy, still life goes on
But the best part is, there is sense of belongingness

Just a word from you bring smile on my face
Being with you, I enjoy the magic of Love
Realize why it is call as falling in Love
Toady, I love You more than yesterday but less than tomorrow
Because I fall in Love all over again with
‘ You’

“Thank you for being a part of my life,
whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime”

Stuck Between College and Work

Its been really long that I haven’t update my blog. Many people are even complaining. I never knew that complains can be good at times, as it help me know that there are people who like my blog. Actually, I always make an excuse saying that I don’t have anything to write about, but honestly speaking, I have so many things happening in my life that it become difficult to decide which topic to start with.
Ok let’s start with Work. Now it has become my necessary evil. New place new people (I am talking about my work place when I join, now its almost 5 months). Feel actually very different, different from what I see and what I thought it would be. To start off my career, I think I came to a right place. Small Company always gives you more responsibility and in return, learning is more. I joined the company in hurry, as it’s a part of my MA part 2 to join somewhere in HR. So this thing again prove that “You always get what you deserved” (my all time fav saying).

Coming back to work, I joined as a fresher.
Initially I was kind of scared, because everyone keeps on telling me that it will be different this and that… It’s not like what we use to do when we were in college. First one month went on learning. From next month onwards, work on full swing. Within two months I came to know a lot about the Service world.
In my current organization I feel I am still part of my college group because in my team everyone is very cooperative and ready to help at any point of time. Yes, like any other workplace work pressure is there, stress is there but it’s not too much.
People keep on saying about the work profile and all in an organization but I feel that work environment is also very important at the same time.
And one more thing is ‘How supportive is your Supervisor?’.
This is one plus point about my organization.
I will keep on talking about my work now and then but for now its enough.

College has also become very demanding as it’s my final year. Projects and more projects. Presentation, more books. In my First Year “Mocha’s” use to be my classroom but now I came to realized that my college has very good Library too ;).
Really I am stuck in between college and work.

:)

Waiting for you forever…

As the days to be with you are nearing
Each day seem like a year to me
Sometime I feel that it was just yesterday
But again I feel like I have not seen you for years

Feels like I have never waited
Never waited for anyone like this before in my life
Waiting for the days to be with you again
Everything seem so new
Everything seem quite exciting

Just the thought of you brighten my day
There is a kind of glow in my face
I don’t need a reason to smile when you are near me
As you are the smile of my life
You coming here will bring my smile back to me

I feel so lonely without you
My world is incomplete without you
As you are the only one
For whom I can wait for this Lifetime.

:)

A sense of feeling which came with someone special

A kind of feeling no one has ever make me felt
A kind of trust which I always long for
A kind of belonging which make be so complete
A kind of Love… Yes Love.

Love itself is such a big word, people who are lucky in love says.. Love is so Beautiful and people who are not so lucky feel love is such a waste of time. No matter what, for me Love is Sacred. As only, love can bring meaning to your life. You have to fall in love to experience it. Don’t be scared to fall in Love. I am not saying that Love is always Beautiful. If I have to explain Love in a word then its “BITTERSWEET”.

Many people come in my life; people leave me alone with time and place.
Things change, people change, feelings change.

But a kind of feeling which came with someone, it’s so different. At one moment I feel that I can do anything and the next moment I feel lonely. Sometime I feel alone in the crowd and sometime even when I am alone I can feel his presence.

For the very first time in my life, I think twice before doing anything. First I think whether he will like it or not. How will he feel? :)
Feel like asking him for every small thing.
But this doesn’t change me as a person. I am still the same. Its just that the feeling is so different, I become more confident, there is always a feeling which make me believe that he is always there for me, in heart if not physically.

I can’t even think of hurting him in anyways. As for me, Love is all about loving the other person more then myself. Just being with him makes me believe that life is not so bad.

The End or The New Beginning

“Journeys end. Friends depart.
Every phase of life comes to an end.
But every end is also a new beginning.
It is a new chapter waiting to open.

It’s up to you what you want to think about,
The End or The New Beginning!”

These lines inspire me to write, its quite sometime I haven’t written anything.

It’s so true, every End is a new Beginning. Sometime we are so lost in the ‘End’ of something that we are not able to see the ‘Beginning’. I know it’s not easy to be happy when something nice end in our life, I was really lost when I first came to Mumbai, no friends at all. That too, after living only with friends for 3yrs in hostel. But slowly with time, I know what to do and where to start. But the initial days were so bad. I use to miss my college, which I never thought . Miss my entire hostel as well as college friends. All of them have move on in life; I use to think I am the only one stuck out here. Whenever they call up, they will tell me about their new friends and all. They were happy with the New Beginning and I was sad because of the End. So later on I came to realize which path to go. Now I am happy with the New Beginning, new friends, and new way of life but yes the same old Dreams. How can someone Change their dream.

Life is all about choice. It’s up to you to decide. The choice is between the End and Beginning….. Everything changes with time. Which seem important at this point of time may not be so important later on in life. But we have to go with the flow.. This is what life is all about.

Happy Birthday to Me 6th May

I am a year older; but I truly agree “we're older but no wiser For in our hearts, the dreams are still the same” Dreams which sometime seem impossible. But still dreaming about it and hope it will come true someday.

Let’s come back to reality; My Birthday was quite nice not because I celebrate it with full swing. It was just like another day, some bit of shopping, went to meet one of good friend as she was not well, then at night went out with my cousin and friends. But the feeling was good, happy I guess the only thing which say ‘happy’ birthday make a person happy.

Happy because I start my day and end my day the way I wanted but still, was missing someone badly. Happy as my mom, dad, bro, sis and all my friends whether old or new make me feel so special. Another year has past, when I look back I am quite happy, the way i had come but its just the starting.. still a long way to go.

“A miles to go before I sleep
A miles to go before I sleep.”

: )

Thank you all.

I got this fantastic idea from, one of the best writer I ever met in my life. As soon as I read his post I was like I have to do the same thing for people who matters.

The whole idea to this post is to thank some people for good things they did to me or to other people. At times you want to thank them but you really don’t know how to do it. So, here is one of the options. These few words may justify their good work but I will try my best.

I really want to thank, appreciate people whom I have met in school, college, work place or maybe in the part of so call ‘Life’.

THE IDEA

The idea is to follow a simple baton carrier mechanism to review or interview or recommend a person whom you know personally, or have met online, or have interacted for professional work, or have been a fan of his/her profession, or you just have a crush on him/her.

WHY?

The reasons can be

• just for fun
• to appreciate a person for his work
• to let others know more about the person and his/her work
• and much much more

You can see some simple rules!

Here are my Recommendation, Reviews and Appreciation of the following people

Bidya Takhellambam

Where to start about this girl? She is gem of a person. I am so proud to say that she is my best friend, I don’t make friends easily, and best friend…. I have known her for more then 7yrs now. In this period we have learned from each other, grow together as a better person. She is a beautiful person; I don’t mean the physical appearance. I will call every person lucky, who got a chance to know her. That’s make me lucky too ;). She is a person who believes in herself more then anybody, who know what she want I in life and who is always ready to take any kind of risk to fulfill her dream. Once she starts talking there is no way you can stop her. She is the only person who understand my silence more then my words, and the only person I can believe blindly. Best part of her; give her a piece of cloth she will come out with a dress from that piece of cloth. I meant she will design, do the cutting even stitching that too with only her hand. Isn’t it amazing?

How can I forget the first time I met her. I swear she will never forgive me for that. A dark beauty who know how to laugh, you know what I meant. When she laugh it’s seem like nobody in the world can be as happy as she is. A software engg by profession but a person who will only read about art and philosophy, maybe that’s why we get along very well. Best part about her is that she very dedicated to whatever she does, she may not like it but she will always give her 100% to it. She is one person who can get along with anybody and everybody. I friend for lifetime is what’s best describe her.

I took the baton from

• Brajeshwar

And I am passing on the Baton to the following

• Minnie
• Vasu
• Arun Gokul

For someone special.

The days are quite challenging, the nights are too long
Every single day is like a year to me, when you are not near me
Still smiling, still waiting, and missing more then before.
Because i know somewhere somehow you always give me hope to go on.

As, Sometime your silence speaks louder than your words.

But your words, your voice is the only source of strength
The strength which make me believe that you are always with me.
No matter how far you are, but in the matter of heart you are so close.
So close which make be feel that nobody can ever be so close with me.

I long for; the days were you pamper me like a baby.
I long for, the way when you shout at me when I make stupid mistake.
I long for, the time I had with you, only with you.
I just can’t wait to be with you.

Till then, let your words, your voice give me strength
The Strength which I need till I see you again.

Heart Vs Brain

Today one of my friend told me, listen to your Brain. I just told him.” Let my brain do their work in my studies and office work” I don’t want to involve my brain in the matter of Heart. I was wondering ‘Is it really necessary to listen to Brain in every aspect of life?’ Why can’t I just do what my Heart want? Here I am not talking about any particular thing. Almost all my friend says ‘don’t be an emotional fools’. As I used to take things quite seriously and I used to trust people easily but not anymore. They think that if I do things, according to my heart wants, then I am not being practical. I do so because I don’t want to lose the touch of innocence by trying to do the entire thing in an artificial way.

What does Brain actually do? It helps you think, make you see all the good and bad side of the thing and lastly it help you decide what the best for you. In doing so, you are just being on the artificial side of so call ‘The norm of living’ and not doing what your heart want.

I am not trying to say that it doesn’t help. It help in all the ways but the only lost in it, is that you become the victim of the situation. You forgot to enjoy life in real sense.

I don’t want to be like this, like any other person. I know by listening to my Heart I sometime end up crying because I can ask myself to listen to my heart but I can’t expect the same thing from the other person.

Whatever the situation is it’s always good to look at both the side, I meant Heart and Brain.
For me it’s the Heart which rules but yes I will still say ” Let my brain do their work in my studies and office work”

Can you keep a secret???

‘Can you keep a secret?’ Is the name of a book by Sophie Kinsella, actually my current favorite of course after ‘Harry Potter’. It’s a delightful novel. Sophie Kinsella is a former financial journalist and author of the bestselling novels Confession of a Shopaholic, Shopaholic Takes Manhattan, Shopaholic Ties the Knot, Shopaholic & Sister, and The Undomestic Goddess. I haven’t read any of the above novels but yes after reading this book, I will surely read all of the rest.

It’s a story about Emma Corrigan, a young woman with a beautiful heart, an irrepressible spirit and a few little secrets…like
Secrets from her Boyfriend
She always thought her boyfriend looks like Ken. As in Barbie and Ken
Secrets from her mother
She lost her virginity while her Mum and Dad were downstairs watching Ben-Hur.
Secrets she wouldn’t share with anyone in the world.
But she spills them all to a stranger on the plane, thinking that she will die and he was the last person she ever sees. She thought he was a stranger…. Until Emma comes face to face with that stranger, Jack Harper, the company’s elusive CEO, a man who knows every single humiliating detail about her….

The dialogue is sharp, even the minor characters are well drawn. She witty takes on mundane office and family life will really make you laugh out loud.

So if I ask this question “Can you keep a secret???” Many people many opinions. Some says yes and some said no. Or should I say should we share our entire secret or not??
For me I feel that if it’s going to create unwanted tension it’s better to keep quite.
But on the other hand, like Emma from the novel she remains the same person after all.
I just love the whole idea of love and trust in the novel. That’s very much important in any relation. Whether you have a secret or not.. it doesn’t matter as long as you love and trust the other person. Everyone has their on little secret in life. You shouldn't force the other person to tell their secrets even if you are her/his boyfriend/girlfriend. Trusts the people you love, forget about the secret.

For the SAKE of it....

It seem like everyone is in love with this movie “Namesake” by Mira Nair.
Anywhere I go or any friend I meet or any blog I open, everyone is either writing or talking about the movie. Even I have seen the movie. I just loved it.
But I don’t want to write the review for this movie as I think I will not be able to give a justified review and on the other hand I don’t want to write just for the sake of writing a review.
After watching the movie I would love to read the book someday. If the movie is so good then I am just wondering how the book will be like.
Movie has its on plus point but you can never competed with the book. I have read all the Harry Potter series and Harry Potter is my favorite book.
Even I like the entire Harry Potter movies but there is a huge difference between a book and a movie. Till now no movie has come up to its expectation.

This maybe because when we read a book we picture everything in our mind and when that thing doesn’t match with the movie then we feel disappointed.
People who love reading will always go for book as it give them the freedom to imagine and picture the whole story, the way they want.

So, coming back to the movie, I think is really a great movie. Like almost everyone acting. I won’t write more as I already said that I won’t write the review.
But I will definitely say that if you haven’t seen this movie then you should go for it.
It really worth watching, you won’t regret it in any ways.

: )

In the path of Life……

I have certain thoughts
Certain kind of thinking about everyone I care
I care for them because they are mine
Mine because they will be there for me always
Always? Sorry I am wrong
Wrong very wrong in judging People
People who matter
People who make a difference
All in the path of life..

How do you feel when you are Hurt?
‘Hurt’ by People whom you always believe
‘Believe’ that they will always be there for you

For me I feel lonely
I lost trust
I feel that I don’t really know them
I feel that there was a reason for everything
A hidden reason for their ‘care’

Learning from my mistake
Mistake in making opinion about people
Especially about people who are so so close

Will I stop trusting?
Should I trust them again?
No, how can I trust them when they have hurt me deeply

All I have to say is that
‘Dont hurt somebody so badly that the person cries from her heart’
Or should I say that this is all in the path of life…

Friday Night Fever…

Today it’s Different
Here I am not talking about some party or disc.
Today is the big day for the Indian Team.
Today as everyone knows this match will decide everything.

India is a country where cricket is not only a Game.
It’s a Religion. People worship cricket.
It’s kind of funny to think about it I meant our national Game is Hockey but it’s always Cricket which create wave for everyone.

Even I love Cricket but only when India is playing.
Today it will be fun only if India wins the game.
It’s a do-or-die situation.
Different people different views, some are skeptical and the others feel the team Rocks.

I am praying for a Miracle.
I just want to wish the Team Good Luck.
We must support our Team and their talent.

: )

Changing Phases of Life.....

‘Never expect anything from anyone’ is the best thing everyone should learn in life…

Life would have been so much easier if I had known this from before…
For me it has always been that do good thing and expects the same in return but it’s not like that in reality.

And one more thing, people change according to there need and profit. So beware of people who are extra friendly to you or who act as if they love you without any intention (in reality they don’t). I am an emotional fool. I trust people easily without realizing there hidden intention and at the end of the day it’s me who gets hurt.
I don’t blame any one for anything, as I take it as changing phase of life maybe I deserve it. It’s all a part of life.
First it was a phase of showing that they care for me and now is the phase when they are tired of me. It can’t be the same Right!

Life itself is a great teacher. It teaches you everything.
Sometimes the people whom you have known for years will act as if you don’t know them. You have certain kind of opinion for these kinds of people. But when you come to realize that whatever you think about them is wrong. It feels like it’s the end of the world.
With things like these, sometimes I feel so lost and my confidence is shaken. If people whom you have known from years turn out like this then what will you expect from people whom you have known only for some months?
That’s why I mention the very first line in my writing.

People change with their requirements. No matter, whether you know the person for years or months. But people like me who think that they are always the same people are the one who is affected. Ok excepted… maybe life was meant to be this way….
This is what I meant by the changing phases
Whatever I am writing now is also a phase of life maybe in my next writing it will again change….

Changes keep life going…

The so call Valentine’s Day

The day where everyone is lost in love..
Or should I say Love is in the air again..
For me love is all about loving the other person more than myself.
Why am I saying this?
Because if you can’t love yourself, you wont be able to love anybody. Try to appreciate the goodness in yourself as it’s the only way which will help you see the goodness in other person.

"If I love myself despite my infinite faults. How can I hate anyone at the glimpse of a few faults"

-Vivekananda

“He that falls in love with himself will have no rivals”

-Benjamin Franklin

Oh! coming back to my topic.. I almost lost my track.

For me Valentine’s Day is always a special day.
Here I am not say that I need a special day to celebrate my Love but to have a special day once in a year is always wonderful like Birthday.

V Day is all about Love, all different kind of love, not necessary that it should be only your BF.
People have a wrong concept of V Day that it’s only for couple.
I maybe wrong but my idea is very different. My best can be my Valentine; my parents can be my Valentine, my bro can be my Valentine. It’s a celebration of love so it can be anyone, it can even be me.
I just love the atmosphere of Love all around.

I don’t have anybody in my life whom I can call the Love of my Life or my Valentine but I do have lots of people in my life who loves me so much that they don’t even give me time to think about someone special in my life.

Like my best Friend Bidya it’s really an amazing feeling to see her so so happy, her BF is in Bangalore so I have to buy gifts and flower for her on the behalf of her BF. So when she saw the gift she was shouting laughing : ))
And another one my Bhabhi who is more then happy just because she is with my bro she doesn’t want anything more.
And yes she was the first one to wish me.

Yes definitely I would also love to have someone special in my life but at the same time I don’t have any complain too as I know even my day will come… One fine Day ;)

Till that time will celebrate my V Day with my near and dear ones.

Wishing you all a very Happy Valentine’s Day.

This New Year ;; ))

On the very 1^st day when everybody was celebrating New Year, I was busy shifting. But it’s ok as I like the new house more then the old one, so it does start with happy note. I know New Year come with a new beginning but this year its kind of different. The good part is that I am with my Bhaibheji who is more like a sister(touch wood).

Met someone for the first time on 2^nd Jan 07. I never expected that it will turn out this way. Life is full of surprises (maybe this is one of it). Lets see which way this meeting lead to. I think a lot for every small to small things but sometime its better to stop thinking too much and ‘Just do it’ attitude is much more better.

Finally done with my Root Canal which I have been neglecting for past so many months. Going to Dentist is like my regular routine for this month. It hurts, but was not that bad. Everyone around me scares me so much that I keep on postponing again and again. Finally it’s done. Now I just have to go for my final check up.

Seen almost all the movies which were release, from ‘Bhagan Bhag’ to ‘Bable’ to ‘I See You’ to ‘Blood Diamond’ to ‘Guru’ to ‘The Covenant’. As it’s the beginning of the year I don’t have much work to do so end up watching all the possible movies. I like Blood Diamond and Guru the best. Now waiting for ‘Salaam e Ishq’

SHOPPING Wow!!! I can’t do without it. My life is not so complete without shopping. Bought dresses, chappals, bags, earrings and other stuff like curtain and all. My best Fren Bidya is the ultimate partner for shopping. It’s went to all the shop possible. Ya how can I forget my Bhaibhiji’s Saree. It’s really awesome.

Went to Shidhivinayak Temple. I have been dying to go there from the time I have landed here in Mumbai. I think it’s after one and half years that i got this opportunity. For going to any temple I believe that its in God's will, how much ever you try to go, if God doesn’t want to give Blessing you will never reach the temple. I have been waiting for this, from long time. Thank you dear God. Patience really pays.

Best one I clear in all my papers. I am So happy : ) I know how I prepare for this exam. I was stuck between work and coll. How much I was struggling at both the ends. On the last day of my Theory paper I lost my mobile phone. When I enter the examination hall my mind went blank still I manage to write some good answers.

Met my fren Pavi after one and half year. Feel so good. Happy that I have friends who are far from distance not from our friendship. We were not in touch for so so long time but when we meet it’s like the same old days. Talking, giggling blah blah blah.

Vasu is finally coming to Mumbai. She is one of my Best fren from Bangalore. Actually she was senior in the hostel. Now she is working in Pune. She have three days holiday. When we are together every moment is like celebration. So now is Me, Bidya (my school fren) and Vasu. Hope the society people won’t complain as we will be shouting and laughing all the time

Partying.Yeah!! From the beginning of the year I went clubbing every week
(Love dancing) Now it will be more exciting as Vasu is coming.

This year start with positive note. Or maybe, I become more mature with time as till now I don’t have any grudges, no bad feeling for people who hurt me who betrayed me. Or maybe I have decided to leave the negative feelings with last year. I can forgive all those who hurt me but I will never forget. All this help me become a better person. So it’s better to learn and go on in life. As I can’t do anything to change the Past but I can always plan for better Future.

To have someone who is always there for you is the best thing. Now I can also say that I have someone who is there for me in whatever I do. The one who try his best to make me smile all the time, help me in every possible way he can. Quality time with close ones and with all my best friends are the moments to be treasured. So this year start with all my near and dear ones by my side including new people in my life.
