Coming BAck......yet again

Have come inafter avery long time......dnt exactly remember y i nvr blogged in during all this time....there have been times when I've started writing....reached halfway...remembered smthing else and left tht blog nd gone away........so much has happened during these 2 years....i've grown..matured (ok...smwat may be!).....seen so much...learnt so much...nd still it feels as if the journey hs just strtd.........finished college....went to work...left a company...joined another...the transition happened without much emotions or drama.......immersed myself in work in this new company...keeping it a priority above everythng else........days pased......the work continued......months went by without a break...with the occasional hi - hello to friends....and meeting up wid them occasionally....all in all..a very busy time.......seem to have lost a good number of friends maybe.......people hu were really important at some or other point of time....seem to have drifted away....and attempts to bring them back...get bak in touch seems like a huge effort......but yeah...somewhere down the line...i doregret losing them.....going so far away that coming back really does not evoke much emotions......an extension of the customary formalities......and the conversation seems abrupt....with awkward silences that leave me wondering why did I even think of this being a great reunion.......a lot has changed......the people who matter....the people who do not matter... but are still there so u know there's a crowd if u wish to lose yourself into one.......crowds of countless faces you meet everyday...speak to ever moment...yet do not understand where they fit into your lives.

Hi…this is that time of my life(nothing new…happens with just about everyone who comes to this earth!) where I move from one world to a another…..time when I’m about to leave the hallowed halls of college and move on to what I was actually here for in the first place….yeah..no prizes for guessing this….work…career… and this is where you experience the difference….and look back on all those nights you’d stayed up studying for exams..and hoped (lesser mortals like me did…yes!!!) that the the exam room will blow up…or the papers would catch fire…or there’ll be an earthquake…..and ..most simply put..the exam will get cancelled! And now you wish you these days weren’t getting over so soon…and maybe you could spend a little more time faffing with friends…and those awesome teachers (only some of them…mind you...I believe there’s a kans mama like sir….or a bindu like ma’am everywhere!) who actually treated you like kids…..a little more time in the canteen…..guffawing about the new “beings” in ...

Rainy days!!!!

So...where was i?? yeah.....those rainy day one - liners...and then you have the people trickling in...."My!! what a weather!!!" or "the rain water came up to my knees".......the more dramatic ones like "You know what????i fell into a manhole"......"puray engine mein paani ghus gaya tha"......desperate ones ( i mean...the more committed ones) "no taxis coming this way........the one that did charged me double"...bla bla bla............I know there's nothing new in this blog yet....probably happens every time there's a shower.......and probably would happen in all the years that I'll stay alive for maybe........but the thing that actually made me write about this was because it just occurred to me that I'd probably hadn't heard anyone saying anything nice about the weather today......or the other rainy days, for that matter.....true.....it is a bother to have the rain when you are going out somewhere.....and it is a ...

2 states - a look through

The first thing I realized after reading this book was that it had the exactness of a powerpoint presentation. Just the right number of characters that people can remember and would be turning back pages to find out who they’d actually reading about. Quick witted humour laced with sarcasm, delicately bordering on insolence. From a practical perspective perhaps, there’s not much. A boy and a girl meet, fall in love, overcome some resistance from families, but eventually get married. There. You have the story. But that would not be right. It just isn’t that simple, not yet. There’s a lot more to it, still. The obsession of north Indians with food, and of south Indians with education. The brawls in a Punjabi family and the solemnity of a madrasi home. You could almost end up doing a comparative analysis of the two. Generalizations galore, yet underline the uniqueness of the human mind . The simplicity of the emotion called love, the subtleties of which make you smile, probably compare yo...
