I’m another year older :( But blah… It really doesn’t matter :) Really… Cos I still look the same, haven’t done anything great in the past 1yr, and am still the same old Technology Consultant with HP… So… It really doesn’t matter :)
Friday (April 17th 09)
It was a very quick day… Started with me getting up late after all those late night calls from people wishing me at midnight… Since my phone was constantly busy, after a point of time people stopped calling :( and I had to return the missed calls to get my wishes… I know!!! I had to literally drag myself out of my bed at 7.30 in the morning… Then had a good shower… Took some time ironing my new dress… Made a quick visit to the temple… Got back, had a good breakfast and zoomed to office… Man it was sooooo hot… I was cursing everybody on the road and also the scorching sun…
Once in office I decided it was gonna be like any other day… As the day progressed slowly there were people coming to my desk, taking sweets, wishing me… A couple of my school mates called and wished… Feels nice to know that they still remember…. Had a couple of sessions after lunch… I was so embarrassed walking up and down in my new dress as the beads on it kept clinking and people kept turning to see who was making the noise :( Soon it was evening and by the time Bhu and Priya came to my seat I ran out of sweets :( :( Went with them to café, treated Bhu with a watermelon juice and got chocolates…By 6, Logu called me for dance practice… Told him wont stay for long… The moment I entered the whole gang was there including a few new members too… I wasn’t expecting them… And then I see hidden behind the pillar were Subi, Jannu and Uday and also a huge chocolate cake… I couldn’t stop smiling… It was cake cutting, then a mini photo shoot and a lil bit of dance practice… It was a great day…
Thanks to all those who wished me, Arun, Bhu, Girish, Arvind for the gifts… Logu for the wishes in ERGO and the dance club cake cutting…
Wait wait… I’m not done yet :) the best it yet to come... I got back home and people were still calling to wish me… Was having a terrible headache and eyes were burning like crazy… Guess it’s the heat taking its toll on me… So crashed early…
Saturday (April 18th 09)
I woke up early and felt groggy… Apparently I slept like a log and hence the feeling… I was reading paper and thinking about what to buy today as I had made plans with Jannu to roam in Pondy Bazaar and Landmark… Was planning to check out good books to buy in Landmark… I was very sure Jannu would wake up by 10 or 11 and I can aaram se have lunch and go… Suddenly I get a call from her @ 8.45… She said we’ll meet up at Isphani by 11.30 as she wanted to go to Landmark… I tried telling her we’ll meet up after lunch but in vain… She sounded desperate to be there by 11.30… I thought maybe she had loads to do there and jus shrugged ok… Mom needed sometime to make lunch so called her and said that I’ll be late by half an hour… She dint have any issues… I have never seen Jannu being so time conscious so was very surprised thinking why she badly wanted to meet up so early that too on this hot day… Whatever I got dressed in a simple polka dotted green shirt and spaghetti (never thought I will regret this choice of dress later) as I was jus gonna roam around Pondy…
When I got down at Isphani she called me inside as she wanted to get a drink… I went along answering a call from my dad and entered Marrybrown… And my-o-my there is this huge gang there… I was surprised and shocked… It was a SURPRISE party… Man… I wanted to pinch myself… Subi, Girish, Balaji, Arun, Logu, Arvind and Vijay were there… I was so so surprised… I have no words to describe it… Then there was this completely out of the world cake that I had to cut… It was yummy and amazingly soft… I gave everybody a piece… Then we ordered food… Then came the next surprise… It was big bag full of goodies… Things that I have always loved… There was this amazing scrapbook made by Jannu… It was so beautiful… It had my pictures, messages and wishes from all my close friends… I was shocked to see messages from a lot of really close people… It was cho chweet of Jannu to take so much effort to do such a thing…. I Love you Jannu… The other gifts were a painting kit containing – a drawing board, a beginner’s guide to water colors, a box of poster colors and a set of 7 paint brushes… Then there was this set containing two coloring dolls and a puppy from Littlest Pet Shop… They were all cute stuff I’ve always loved… After eating we guys planned for a movie and went till Sangam but ill luck no ticks were available… We all headed back home after that…
This is 1 memorable event in my life I’m always gonna treasure…Thanks to all those who made it happen… Love u guys…
