Mere saathh aisa kyun hota hai.....

It happened in College
It happened when I went for MBA
It Happened yet again when I started working.....

dat makes it 4 + 2 + 1 month (almost)
Basically just over 6 year continuosly....

and wat is this "IT" in the above sentences.....
The "IT" stands for making of Plans to Kill me.

Though these plans have not yet materialised...(how could they ever)
Well....my ability to crack PJs or seriously pull someone's leg to extremes has led to this scenario. But, luckily I do it mostly with close friends....

But then its been fun for both sides....they miss what I did when we were together and same here I miss what I used to do....

When I meet up with old friends....esp. those who made plans....same plans r discussed...and the exact reason why that plan was made....

Ah SWEEEEEEEEEETTTTTT EEEMMMMMMOOOOOOOTTTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSS

DID I EVER IMAGINE.....

- People who know me will be amazed to see the daily schedule I now have. I never used to sleep at 11 PM...I just could not....there was no way I could wake up at 6am after sleeping at 4:30 AM....BUT guess what I am doing what I never imagined...

I AM WAKING UP AT 6 AM, SLEEPING AT 11 PM.

- There was a time, when Rock Music and Gaurav Gupta went hand in hand....where there was Rock music there was Highwaystar, or where there was Highwaystar there was Rock music.

AS OF TODAY, IT HAS BEEN AGES SINCE I HAVE HEARD "SMOKE ON THE WATER" AT THE HIGHEST VOLUME I COULD. :(

- Had any of my friends ever seen me having rice (in any form other than Chicken Biryani/Biryani)in XIMB. The answer will come as NO.

BUT THIS IS LIFE. ITS NEVER FAIR TO YOU. I AM HAVING RICE DAILY WITH SAMBHAR. BUT THEN GOOD THING IS THAT I ALSO GET TO EAT THE FRIED PAPADWHICH I REALLY LOVE.

-There was a time when I would be regularly coming out with too many pics from my digital camera

TODAY, I AM NOT CARRYING MY DIGITAL CAMERA, BUT INTENDING TO GET A PROFESSIONAL ONE SOON. HAVEN'T CLICKED ANY OF THE GREAT SNAPS I USED TO WHEN WAS IN CAMPUS

Change is truly the essence of life...
It was truly one big fun time while on campus. Miss those friends now.

But, then now that I am settled out here in Chennai, everything is getting into a smooth roll here, lets see wats in store now on....

RAINS.....

FINALLY, IT RAINED.....
Well....its been humid and fairly hot in this part of the country...but today evening sitting and working on a PPT....that particular amazing smell of mud - the smell which comes when it rains or is about to rain was quite prominent and then looking out of the window one could see the small droplets coming down which slowly increased in speed.....and by the time I realized it was raining.....finally the Monsoon showers happened.....Having stayed in Bhubaneswar for 2 years.....I was missing rain so much....It was then I realized that I don't have a car to go back home....so the best thing which came to my mind was - WHY NOT GET DRENCHED AND THEN REACH TO MY APARTMENT and I did just that....

I really love rains....I hope my coming to Chennai brings much more showers to this city. And tonight the weather seems pretty cool.....worth taking a walk or lazing around on balcony - Ah! those XIMB days....

Waitin for more rains....and right now fod waiting at home.....

Chennai Reports

Back after a real long time. Now am in Chennai. Its real hot (not as hot as Delhi) but whats worse is that its way too humid. Trying to adjust to this climate.

Have joined the company and induction program is up. We were also taken to Bangalore as part of induction program. Bangalore climate is amazing. Now I know where to go when I need a break.

The first thing which can happen to anyone landing in Chennai was experienced very well by me. I paid Rs. 180/- for a taxi ride from Airport to my guest house - and the distance was only 5 - 6 kms. Moreover this fleecing was done by Pre-Paid Taxi Counter. What a start....

So now its final that the stay in Chennai is going to be a long one, so we are getting our house in order. Now waiting to get some time and roam around the place also. The biggest problem which will be faced now is Income Tax - need to minimize it for my Digital SLR Camera.

Rest all later.....

A New Step being taken tomorrow....

Well come Friday the 3rd of June and I once again leave my home....ah the Paradise City of Delhi yet again.....but this time for Chennai. Last time when I left this city had gone to pursue MBA at XIM Bhubaneswar. This time its not studies but for a new phase - a phase where i start working for the first time. Let us see how this part of life kicks off. Will be meeting new people and some old friends who are already in Chennai. Am kind of excited to reach there - I think two and a half months spent lazing around after convocation does this to almost everyone. Will update later on after reaching Chennai.....and maybe it might be about the weather there...since that will be the first thing I will come in contact with there. Delhi is right now enjoying cloudless sky with sun successful at keeping Delhiites indoors with ACs on causing overload for the BSES and thus some hours without power - end result - ITS BLOODY HOT IN DELHI.
And now its again time to pack.... :)
