Hopes!!!
I saw a pretty weird dream this morning. I saw my history teacher, Ms. Neena Mathur. This is weird since I have never been in touch with her after school, but yeah tried many a times to know about her. She always used to get confused with my name and called me Kanakpriya who was my classmate.
Yesterday also she was calling me, saying that she wants to come back to India. She is not happy in foreign land. I called up my schoolmate to know about her and she told me that Neena mam is not in India. She took retirement and left to stay with her kids.
I don’t think she even remembers me, but I really like her very much. She taught me since 5th standard till 10th standard.
I hope I find out about her pretty soon. Please pray that she is fine.

KADWA SHOT
Today is Karva Chauth. One of the days people associate with atrocities on women.
I, of course, kept it. My reasons are:
1. Pray to God to give Andy lots of patience to jhellofy my stupidities all my life.
2. A reason to get gifts. (BEST part)
3. He has to close doors and lights one day before karva chauth. Arrey baba I have put Mehandi na… :P
4. He can come early from office officially. His colleagues pity on me and allow him to leave by 8.
5. I can leave office early. YAYYAYY!!!!
6. My mother-in-law scolds him if he says anything against me today.(fluttering eyes)
7. My father-in-law scolds him if he says anything against me today.(fluttering eyes)
8. My sister-in-law scolds him if he says anything against me today.(fluttering eyes)
9. And of course, all of them get gifts for me. :))
10. Last but not least, I fall in love with him all over again seeing him handling things so well for me.

Hide n Seek
Life is hard, terribly hard
Full of surprises
Each day teaching a new lesson
Do not trust life
I trusted it
For people told me that good deed repays back
But forgot to tell life has its own gamble
It loves to play hide and seek
I never loved that game in past
Neither do I today.

Life ho to Aisi!!!
Me back!!!
All these days in Jodhpur seems to be a dream. The whole time in Jodhpur was spent in sleeping, eating and sleeping. Mom was almost occupied whole day in kitchen to feed her 3 hungry children!! :P
It was so good. I didn’t felt even for a second that I am married and I am here only for 3 days. Living with my own family again after so much time brought back my old
memories. I loved watching TV with them, since most of the time my sis and father would fight for the channel. I loved standing in kitchen next to Mom, doing nothing but just talking. I loved when helped her with laundry. I loved fighting with her over those small money issues. I loved feeling so relaxed. Life was so slow compared to Mumbai life. I could live each and every moment. I enjoyed those 7 pani puris in just Rs 10/-. I really miss them now. :((
I wanted to do so many things but couldn’t find time to get up from bed and go out. I wanted get mehandi done on my hands. :(
I wanted to roam around in market and buy bangles and jutis. Missed Gudda a lot, she is my partner in crime while shopping and bargaining for such things.
I wanted to cook something special for family, but every time mom had some nice meal planned for us. And I would get selfish to eat them.
I wanted to stay there for many more days, didn’t want to come back. But time flew and I had to return.
But still, this trip meant a lot to me. For the first time I went all alone in train. Met Swati and his adorable son. Though I admit I got so busy in talking to her that forgot to take pics.
After my marriage it was for the first time that I went home just to stay with my parents for no specific reason. So, I could save myself from visiting those unwanted relatives.
On 24th I am going to Jaipur for Diwali. This trip is going to be damn hectic. Andy is also coming and we would have to go for hundreds of dinners and lunches and invite many of people at our home. I will have to do many things out of my wish so that no one gets angry.
My brother and sister won’t be there on Diwali, Though, I am expecting Mom Dad to come over to Jaipur. But I am still so excited to go there, since I will meet my in-laws. I and my sis in law are planning the places to go for shopping. I will meet my 1 year old nephew. I just adore him. My father in law will get all my favorites sweets from various shops in Jaipur.
And of course Diwali means shopping!!!! So fun time….
But still I am feeling so dull today… I don’t know the reason.. :((

Bad Day.... Not Today.....But yes!!!!
I hate everyone around me at this moment. People are so diplomat, egoistic…. I don’t understand why cant they always smile and bow a little in front of their so called friends. In past one year I have realized a lot difference between frenz, real frenz and true frenz.
Today was supposed to be one of the best days… It is Andy’s bday…But my mood is all spoiled becoz of some stupid nasty people. I am planning to delete all my phonebook, so that I can stop contacting them.
I am sorry Anand, it’s your bday and I am not in best of my moods.
P.S: They are my ramblings….and so no comments for this blog.

The Quality Tag!!!
I have accepted Nidhi’s tag.
So here are the rules:
There are 26 values stated and we have to write an incident depicting that value. Now, I have done a modification to the TAG. Instead of writing one full incident depicting the value, I have written how each of the value is embedded in me.
So here it goes:
1.Respect: In school, I respected all my teachers. Thus I never tried to prove them wrong when they said my handwriting can never improve. See, it’s still that bad.
2. Flexibility: I am flexible to work in office from 12 noon to 5 pm. I will not object in case my boss wants to give extra bonus for helping him by keeping one computer free for most of the time.
3. Love: I love sleeping. I can compromise with my shopping if sleep is given an option. You know I am flexible.
4. Trust: When I was a kid, my mom had full trust on me that I would be found sleeping under table or behind curtains…and I never did prove her wrong for even once....
5. Confidence: My hostel mates had full confidence in me that I would surely complete any novel in the given time frame, even if it involved bunking of all lectures.
6. Generosity: I am always ready to generously donate my whole bowl of daal in dinner to Andy, but he is not merciful to accept it :((((.
7. Mercy: It is a mercy that I never want to squash a cockroach. After all, he also has a life.
8. Obedience: Talk about Obedience and there can't be a better example than me , myself... Everytime my teachers would ask me to get out of the class, I would obediently walk out :) I only deserved it :)
9. Patience: I have enough patience in me.. I patiently wait for even a cyclist and an oxcart to go ahead of me while I drive the car :) I know Patience is the best VIRTUE :).
10. Caring: I always give only 1/3 of the pastry to Andy and eat rest; after all he is weight conscious.
11. Forgiveness: Sorry, I am not at all forgiving, so stay alert!!!
12. Excellence: Oops!!! I will have to think hard where I excel. May be you guys can help!!!
13. Responsibility: I consider it everyone’s responsibility to share their answers with me during exams; I do the same.
14. Orderliness: I care a lot for books. So, I always keep them intact till last day of Exam. After all reusing of things loses their shine. They are always found arranged on my table.
15. Enthusiasm : It can be seen when I am shopping or cooking : ))))
16. Honesty : I am honest to say that I am afraid of going to Gym. Those machines make me feel as if they will swallow me.
17. Peace : I am a peace loving girl, so during Viva time, I was always found maintaining peace in lab by not answering any of his question. (The silence never meant that I didn’t know the answer).
18. Humility: I have always been humble enough to take all the blames of breaking jars or glass windows or vase. Of course I never did them, it was the ball which did it.
19. Honor : I felt honored when Rawat Sir asked me not to come to class for next one week, since he wanted to teach a very complex topic of Wireless Technology. I was the chosen one from the class who was given the benefit of complete attendance for doing the honors by keeping away from the class for one week.
20. Self – discipline: I always made sure that I would go 10 minutes late for the first lecture in morning. I never tried to exceed than 10 minutes (neither decreased it :)).
21. Creativity: I always tried to give a different excuse for the above self-discipline stated.
22. Reliability: I am the most reliable company to go and eat PaniPuri. With me around, no one will have to eat all alone. I will accompany them from first plate till the Last one
23. Detachment: Though detachment gives loads of pain, but I bear it all. Everytime I am told to work, I make a sacrifice and detach myself from all the work.
24. Unity: I have always tried to encourage our whole batch to go for mass bunking, instead of only me enjoying and having the fun.
Statutory Warning: None of these characteristics holds true, if they are read my family members or office colleagues.
Sorry, couldn't write on two words: Justice and Assertiveness.
Now its your turn. All the readers have to do this tag. And of Course do comment me when you do that ..:))
Thanks Nidhi!!!! I have realized there are so many positive qualities are within me!!!

Why me???? - II
I am back with much more embarrassing mishaps.
This time we went for a meeting at Trident Hotel. And guess what…. I entered a men’s toilet….Hellllllllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How could I do that…..And cherry on the top is there was someone there who said sorry to me!!! And I didn’t saw his face. So even if for the rest of meeting if he was staring at me, I couldn’t recognize him. :)))
Once we left from there, Andy dropped me at the Hair Salon, I planned for the
haircut. I was asked to wait for 10 minutes. So, as I stepped to the lounge area, I heard a tinkle of pearl dropping. I looked down and to my terror, my waist long
necklace was apart, and all pearls were all over the floor.
Aaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!
(Best part: A firang handsome guy came forward to help me pick those pearl, though later out of frustration I threw all those pearls).
P.S. : Nidhi, probably I will agree with Andy being lucky to get a cartoon Network with him whole day. :(((

Why mee????
Is it my fault if I misunderstood a person in DMart as a salesperson if he was wearing the same color shirt and an access card?
But of Course it’s his fault that I tumble down and buy a Rs 100/- cell (instead of 10/-) and feel embarrassed for whole evening!!!!
P.S.: I had to wait for around half an hour for an auto wala to drop me home. I hate Mumbai Auto walas. :(((((((((
