There are connections which seems to be lifeline at one point of time, and you feel you can't survive without those. But time and work makes survival possible even without those.
Life has been very happening lately, witnessed many new things. Don't know whether I should write or not. But anyways I have to express it somewhere, If not to my closest friends then at least to my diary .... my blog. Here it goes .... One of my best friends came back from his onsite. Since morning I was in regular touch with him. Although I was in office but for the greatest invention of man called mobile I was in touch with my friend, or you must say this was what I assumed. Then, at 1'o clock he let me know that he has locked himself out of the house and he can't enter. Actually my house has a strange locking system identical to cars. If you haven't taken the keys out of the house and somehow the gate gets locked then you have no way to enter the house. He stepped out of the house and due strong breeze, a blessing of Bangalore, the gate got locked. He called me for help. I told him to ask the security guard who is small enough and can easily get into the house throu...
This is from the time when I didn't know how to swim. I can recall two incidents from that time which are worth mentioning. The first one was at chhatth'2000 and the second at chhatth'2001. In our village we used give aragh at the bank of the river opposite to our village as that bank had sand. We used to call it baluahi ghat. So, the day before teenagers from our gaon used to swim across to decorate the other bank. Decoration was a symbol of reserving the place for us. We used ribbons, series bulbs, banana trees etc, to decorate the place. Back to the point, it was the day before the festival. All teenagers were crossing the river. There was a boat also and as I was a novice swimmer(that would also be boasting, I just used to throw my arms and legs), I was on the boat. As the boat reached the mid river my uncle asked if I knew swimming. I don't know what occurred to me, I nodded in yes. Then he just said jump in the water why the hell are you on the boat, enjoy man. Wi...
Last week I was at my home town. I had went there to enjoy my holidays but to me and my family despair, typhoid caught me on the first day and didn't leave me till the holidays were over. I had to attend one of my senior's marriage but couldn't go in that also. My chance of meeting with friends and having fun were also lost. After 3 days of fever I was taken to the nearest doctor. After examination his very first question was if I've been outside my hometown in the last fifteen days. The obvious answer was yes, I live in Bangalore and have come here just three days back. Hearing this he opened his Pandora's box diseases starting from malaria, typhoid and reaching "I don't know what" disease and added precautions he takes from patients from Pune and Bangalore after the swine flu stint. He was looking for his mask but couldn't find it. He did his best to create panic in my mind. He gave a huge list of tests to be done. My father was familiar with thi...
