Getting a call from one of my dearest friends! Checking out things at Odyssey i see my phone ringing. We talked for a long time ,30 mins or so!i was wandering through each and every space between the book shelves but i was doing the most unsual thing that people do when they go in a book store. Instead of checking the books i was happily and loudly talking over phone.Some people looking at me as if from wherein this alien come kinda!
One week later i call her again and to my utmost shock i realise that the day when she called me at Odyssey was her birthday eve
Oh god! she pulled my legs like anything and then on i decided , next time i wont even miss any of my dearest friends b days.But how can i do that?! Eureka ! My good old middle aged(yeah its been 2 yrs since i bought that )Sony Ericsson w1200 is the answer
I go to put a note on every b day eve of my dearest friends and set a reminder for me to call them
The first one was Mr Karkhana.The b day eve morning i call him up .he was sleeping. and i left it there. He calls me back after sometime and we talked .I wished him . Call ended
11 30 in morning my collegue near my desktop hears a startling sound.My mobile is ringing .Its the reminder !Yeah i put the reminder as 11 30 AM instead of 11 30 pm.
I got attention immediately.People started asking ! is it your wake up alarm in office? bla bla I gave a faint smile
Next was the turn of Miss T,i put my mobile on silent mode on the day morning at office and again it was " AM " and not "PM"
Thankfully this time reminder didnt create any prob. I called her up for a brief talk and i told her i ll call later.( i thought 11 30 at night).But i ended up calling her at 1 30 in morning when poor thing was almost half asleep
Next Mrs T. People say humans have a tendency to behave in same way as their companions.But i want to add one thing to that . I discovered that not only human but also mobiles have the same habit! Yeah i never knew my mobile inherited my forgetting habit. First of all I created a reminder for July 6, thinking that it was on July 7( i forgot again) and my dearest mobile didnt give me a reminder on July 6 . And Mrs T b day was on July 10 and i realized this only on July 13th by asking her ! Ahmm by the way i think i forgot your b day when was it?! Thank god she was not near me
Two more b day dates is still in reminder!
But before that there is an important date! My parents 35 th wedding anniversary!.What should i do not to forget that!
By the way i m planning to change the mobile ! Beware friends (the ones whose b days are pending) there is a warning: I may forget that also!
But one thing is sure i wont forget the love and care they ve given me !

My Moments in Satyam
When i write this blog today, my company is in news for all wrong reasons.The clouds of grim future of this company and my job is slowly covering my dreams wishes and hopes.When i look back at those one and half years i had in Satyam, i had some great moments.But today i am writing of that wonderful, yet short, but lovely moment i had some months ago.
It all started with shifting of my office to another location.
Me and my team member ,who is also my roomie and my best pal, got workstations in a cabin near to the lifts in 8 th floor of this building.
Things started to settle quite normal for us.The pros and cons of getting cabin as workstation was many.
We were isolated from my other team members and colleagues.The pros !!! heheheh ! it was also a great stress reliever, you could watch all those beautiful girls coming out and going in to those two lifts
Bird watching( the technical term for checking girls,according to me) was one thing i always loved.
You are quite sure that you wont get the girls you watch and you need not be sad that she s not yours.Just need to check those beautiful creations and carry on your with your life.
I don't know when it started but during these bird watching sessions i started noticing one girl in particular.Why i started noticing her!!! i don't remember!! oh ya she always used to come down from cafeteria after lunch between 2 20 pm and 2 30 pm she was never too late and never too early.
She was not that sexy hot chick which makes a guys' heads turn.A normal girl , with a cute face, lean, short and a little long hair.Her only other noticeable feature was her spectacles .
I started noticing her and so she !!. It was the fun.She used to come near those lifts. She would first go to the right lift ,press the button and she would turn a little back and stand and then she will look towards my cabin.
My seating position was perfect for noticing all her actions . The best part was the cute glance she used to give me after pressing the lift button. At first she didn't realize that i was noticing her. One day she did the same chore.But that day i looked at her, and made her known to her through my eyes that Girl i am admiring you.
She realized it and she moved backwards so that i cant see her from my cabin. I waited.
All these bird watching experiences have taught me one thing.Be patient!!
If she is interested she will come again.That s exactly what happened .She moved to the front a little while later.But she did one foolish thing !! she looked straight at my cabin.There i was catching her glances .She knew she was caught.Smart girl she is she went towards the other lift , the lift near to me .Pressed the button and stood in front of that lift.Now that made my life a little difficult .Because i needed to look towards my extreme left , a little painful for my neck.
I decided i wont turn my neck.
i just kept my vision straight .Waiting for her next response.But i was unlucky .That damned lift opened and she went in.
Now from that day the real fun started.Next day i made sure that i am there at my seat anytime by 2 15 pm after the lunch.But i was little skeptical.The reason was that ,Cafeteria was at 10 th floor and she will get a lift from 9 th floor.There is no reason why she should come to 8 th floor.
I waited the next day , 2 20 2 25 2 30 .She didn't turn up .I thought -mm just that one among those bird watchings. I opened my cabin door and went toward vending machine to get a tea.
I walked and landed in front of her. She has come back and she was walking towards the lift
Now that made all my plans in frenzy. I cant turn back and go to the seat.Then she will understand and it may spoil all the fun.What should i do!! i thought.I decided i will get tea and come back with a ray of hope that she will be there near the lift
When i came back she was still there .Oh ya i am was happy .But guys it was not because she wanted to see me again.The reason was the two lifts were taking some time to come up.
Nevertheless i was happy i could see her again.
This continued almost for 3 weeks with she coming almost at the same time and me catching and responding to her stares from my cabin
In between i also saw her when i was coming out of office. Sometimes in lift .Sometimes when i was swiping my card to get out of my office
Those days were wonderful
But all wonderful things wont last long.My team changed .That mean i need to vacate my cabin and move to 9 th floor
I was very unhappy coz i wont be able to see this cute girl talking to me through her eyeS I will be missing thosewonderful moments.
I moved to 9 th floor .For one or two days i came to 8 th floor at the same time to catch a glimpse of her. Unfortunately i couldn't see her.
Slowly i forgot her. One fine day , one week back i saw her again in the cafeteria. I didn't waste any time i made sure i was visible to her .she gave a quick glance and went as if to show"You forgot me i wont look at you again!!!! kinda look
Then again one day to my utter shock i realized that she has started taking lifts from 9 th floor instead of 8 th floor .
Was she searching for me again?
Why did she start taking lift from 9 th floor?
Has those wonderful moments ended? or will it continue ?
A whole lot of questions came to my mind
In these difficult and uncertain times , she still manages to give that wonderful glance to me.
Event hough it may be for a second or two
She still remembers ! May she might have enjoyed like what i enjoyed
Don t know .But how much i enjoyed and how much i yearned for those moments i cant say.
It seems to be seen whether Satyam will still be running and me still be working in this company
But one thing for sure , this was a wonderful moment which I cherish.!!!

A dedication
t was half past 5 , i came back to my workstation and logged on to the system.4 new mails have come.One mail immediately caught my attention.It was from my friend.
"I m getting engaged " the matter starts
I read the mail and i was very happy.Now she s going to enter into a new phase of life. But at the same time i became gloomy. She s gonna settle abroad after marriage.That means i wont be able to meet her after marriage
I never talked to her that much when in college . We ended up in same company, same unit , same room in officei called NOC room.
The friendship grew inside office and also after office hours, when at her home through little chit chats
But destiny had some other ideas .We had to move to another location.But she didnt join us to our new place,which meant no chit chats at home.Even though i used to tell her jokingly , i would come to your place and you should introduce me to your hot roomies, i actually wanted to see her.Ensure that she s happy.But it never happend. Laziness,Work But still i wished but never been able to do that.
But we got connected again through blogs.Never knew she was an avid blogger
Then i started to talk to her not daily , but at frequent intervals with her through my office communicator.
.You need not have any subject to talk to her, She will make you as comfortable and she will never bore you
I was never close to her but still i feel i will miss that girl's presence
But friend whereever you are , i wish you a very prosperous life with lots of children and lots of love from your partner
Anytime you feel wanna meet me!!! come to my blog I m always here ,Wandering like a nomad and acting my part in the whole drama called "life"

Eyes- Part 2
What Next!!!! Yeah i thought i walked towards the entrance swiped my card and got out ,crossed the road.Now its time for the real adventure, getting into a cab , or should i take an auto?.My sensible mind said, Take an auto!!!!.But here i have to bargain with senseless autowallas.
Luckily i got one , and that too which run on meter!!!!!!!.Now i should be careful as to which one runs faster"Meter!!!! or Auto!!!
Things went on normal and to my luck auto ran faster than its meter and other vehicles to reach station
I got in to station scrolling my eyes on the digital screen. I could find out , it is in platform no 3 . I looked at my watch 15 minutes is still there.
I started moving towards the platform. Suddenly one hand touched me from behind. I turned back ( a grim hope it wud be her) and saw a guy instead!!!
I have seen the face but couldnt recollect
Hey " U here' dont u remember me!!!!! i am Sabarish , your Schoolmate
My mouth was wide open. I have heard the name but i dont remember the face
Anyway i said Hello!!!!! .He started talking , Are you going home? he asked!!!!!!
"No" i said
"Going to meet your girlfriend or seeing her off"He asked
I wanted to say "No , and wanted to say "friend"(but i didnt reply , because even i say its guy, you never know what he will say next as these days are "Dostana" days)
But eventually i said "Friend"
He seems to be in a mood to talk and i was in noo mood to listen as my eyes were stuck on the clock 10 minutes more and train will leave
Hey How long you ve been in Hyderabad? where are you working? what did you do after school? Are you married? Isnt it high time to marry? Hey do you know whether any of our schoolmates are here? Do you have contact with any of our school mates? You are still the same small guy but you have put little weight!!!!! Drinking Beer a lot ha!!!!!!!
Man , my mouth was wide open.He is not stopping and not allowing me to reply also and to make matters worse he is holding my hand so tightly as if i m a thief in clutches of a policeman
5 more minutes !!!!!!! i have to climb stairs and meet her
He seems to be talking a lot and me, staring at the clock totally lost.
I regained my composure and i got myself removed from his clutches .i gave him my number and i started running
Forgot to say bye!!!!
I ran and ran and missed the stairs down to 3 rd platform , i crossed it and i was moving towards 5 th Platform
I stopped turned and started running back. 3 more minutes
i ran down the stairs and was vividly looking at the Sleeper class compartments,
My eyes caught what i wanted( not any girl but the compartment)
i checked the reservation chart i found her name and then i looked up near by!! saw a huge girl .
Oooo!!!!! Is this? nah? She started walking towards me.
I wanted to say Nahiiiiiiii i am not the one!!!!!!!
She walked passed me and i had a big sigh of relief. I need to go to other side of compartment as her seat is at that end.
I started walking . i heard a HEY. That was the voice of a girl
i turned to my left. The girl smiled
"I thought you wont turn up" She said
I couldnt say anything !!! half of my breath was gone after that running and was trying to regain my composure.
I smiled.
A slim girl with a round face - I noticed
She immediately gave me a Dairy Milk and at that moment her eyes twinkled
Cute i thought
The train started moving now.
"i will meet you when i come back" Thanks for coming" "This is my number" .
I didnt know what to say . I smiled again
" Bye,We will meet again"
The train started moving faster .I could see her hand waving .
I turned and started walking .
Not bad at least i met her and got a dairy milk as bonus i thought
NOW
"Excuse me" i suddenly became conscious!!.The old lady sitting next to me said "Could you please help me in lifitng the berth?"
Oh ok!!! Its time for her to sleep i thought . i gave her a helping hand
I checked my watch its 9 30 .Need to sleep now, i thought
I made myself comfortable in the Upper Berth .
Next Day Morning
Train reached Chennai, i got out of the compartment.
'Achaaaaaaaa" i heard a child cry.I turned .There it is my sweet little kid along with her even sweeter mother
i smiled walked towards them
She jumped towards me
Just started to tell achaa amma,but managing it quite well
I took her .She had something in her hand. It was a"Dairy Milk"
She gave it to me with a twinkle in her eyes
i looked at my wife. i saw the same twinkling of eyes
i held her hand and started walking
Luckily i got one , and that too which run on meter!!!!!!!.Now i should be careful as to which one runs faster"Meter!!!! or Auto!!!

Eyes -Part 1
Its Friday and i am eager and happy like a school kid, ye i have 2 days holidays hehehe.Every one here is thinking of partying , whereas me!!!!!! i am thinking of catching the 6 45 Charminar Express to Chennai. The Train which takes me to my lover girl of 3 years , yeah my wife !!!!!!!!
3 years ago
It all started one Friday evening. i got a call from my mom, hey you go and meet a girl, got photo buti cant send it , you will get a call from her , talk to her and meet her !!!!!!!
I said"Mom, Are You crazy !!!!!?how will i identify her?
"No worries leave it to her, she will find you." She said
That's t , call got disconnected.
Time for a break i thought .
When i came back i saw 3 Missed calls on phone.Apparently i left my mobile at the desk.
2 different numbers with one repeating twice
That must be her!!!!!!!! I thought i dialled the first number
Goodevening Sir!!! was the reply from other side( a sweet female voice)
SIR!!!!!!.Hmm,why should she call me sir!!!!!!!.
Then came next" What can i do for you Sir!!!!!!!.
" Hey I wanna Marry You" thought of replying like that .For one second my senses were out.
"Do you wanna talk to our Customer Care Officer!!!!!!" voice asked again
Just then i realised , it was Some Insurance Co s number from which i got a call
"Nothing!!!! Thanks i got a call from this number want to know who t was!! "
I hung up
Then i looked at next number !!!!! which repeated twice
I dialled that number, expecting that voice
It got connected and zoom came the voice.
"Goodevening Sir this is from HSBC personal loans , you told me to contact me after 5 today Sir!!!!! So what type of loan do you want....................................... .
he spoke non stop for 1 minute.
I hung up the phone
Just stared at my monitor for sometime .
I wanted one more break!!!!!! i stood up and walked towards my buddies in next wing.This time i took my mobile with me.
When you expect something, your mind is so pre occupied that you are lost. I got lost .Instead of going to buddies wing i took the other way,swiped my id card and went out .
Just then my mobile started ringing.Should i pick up? Is it her?
In a hurry topick the phone from my trousers pocket, it fell down
There it goes ,batterry to north Mobile to the south.
To make things worse , i was near the lift !!!!!.
Just then lift opened , and a large crowd stepped out !!!
I found myself searching for phone like a mad man in between the crowds
Oh !! i got the stuff at last . I managed to assemble it.
Switched on the phone ,Took a coffee from vending machine and went back to desk .
I started working on the excel again.But Alas!! my eye balls were fixed at the mobile
I couldnt work.
I stopped ,and started looking at the mobile .Call Call!!! i am waiting for you. I wanted to shout !!!
Nothing happened .Half an hour passed .No calls .To my utter horror ,i realised i m on the same excel sheet for the last half hour
I was about to get things in order,but again my mobile started ringing.
This time i was not eager but i was angry !!! i picked it and was about to say "Who the hell"
Just then voice from other side said
"Hello , I am Dhanya, you mom might have told about me.
Sorry just wanted tomeet you .
Would it be possible to come to Secunderabad Railway Station?. In fact ,i am going to Chennai by Charminar Express at 6 45 pm
S3 45 is my seat or i will stand outside S3 .No need to search for me,I will find you , i have seen your photo. "
I said" Ok.But" i was about to say ,but phone rung up
At that moment nothing worked .
Meeting a girl who may or may not be your life partner, for first time ,in RAILWAY STATION!!!!!!!
Gosh ,What s all this !!!!!!!!1
I looked at my watch, its 5 45 already . If i dont leave now i wont be able to meet her
I shut down the system and started walking towards door wondering WHAT NEXT!!!!!!!!
TO BE CONTINUED

Nothing happened .Half an hour passed .No calls .To my utter horror ,i realised i m on the same excel sheet for the last half hour
I was about to get things in order,but again my mobile started ringing.
This time i was not eager but i was angry !!! i picked it and was about to say "Who the hell"
Just then voice from other side said
"Hello , I am Dhanya, you mom might have told about me.
Sorry just wanted tomeet you .
Would it be possible to come to Secunderabad Railway Station?. In fact ,i am going to Chennai by Charminar Express at 6 45 pm
S3 45 is my seat or i will stand outside S3 .No need to search for me,I will find you , i have seen your photo. "
I said" Ok.But" i was about to say ,but phone rung up
At that moment nothing worked .
Meeting a girl who may or may not be your life partner, for first time ,in RAILWAY STATION!!!!!!!
Gosh ,What s all this !!!!!!!!1
I looked at my watch, its 5 45 already . If i dont leave now i wont be able to meet her
I shut down the system and started walking towards door wondering WHAT NEXT!!!!!!!!
TO BE CONTINUED
SHE-Part 2
This lovely song from Simon and Garfunkel "Are You Going to Scarborough Fair" made me to put its wonderful lyrics , coz it took back me to her
Here is the Lyrics
Are you goin to scarborough fair? parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there, she once was a true love of mine
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Without no seams nor needlework, then shell be a true love of mine
Tell her to find me an acre of land, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Between the salt water and the sea strand, then shell be a true love of mine
Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
And to gather it all in a bunch of heather, then shell be a true love of mine
Are you goin to scarborough fair? parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there, she once was a true love of mine
Here is the Lyrics
Are you goin to scarborough fair? parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

Are you goin to scarborough fair? parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there, she once was a true love of mine

Life as a Train Journey
I love train journeys. Its a true reflection of our journey of life.You meet people , befriend them and next morning when you reach your destination you say goodbye to them .That s t.Think!!!!! of life as a train journey. When you are born into this world , you have a got a confirmed ticket. ye, ticket to live. You have started the journey of life. The destination for a train journey is Station and what s destination of journey of life???/ some people say death , some say self realisation, but isnt it soil our destination.???YE we rush and end up chaared in soil. Now you ve got the seat in journey of life, who are our co passengers in life?. Some already have boarded the journey of life ,they are our ,Parents. Then come friendsand life partners, they join us in every phase of life,like other passengers board from different stations.But each one will leave us when their destination reaches.We tend to remember some passengers in our train journey for quite a long time because we somehow are attracted to them. Likewise we tend to remember some goodfriends of ours even if we have lost touch with them .then comes our life partner- wife/husband.They shar e o ur seat in the journey of lifeat some point later , but you never know where they are headed to!!!!!!!! .We tend to be sad or disappointed when some pasengers whom we haveliked soo much in train journey . leaves us. Isnt the same sadness that will occur when our beloved parents and others leave us ??????. Coz neither we will meet the passenger or our parents again .Train Journeys are not without risks, thiefs may rob us.In real life also we have some ppl who are thieves who rob our happiness .Sometimes train stops coz there is no signal to move forward. Life also stops for a brief while,when we dont get the signal as to how to move forward. We travel through all sorts of lands, lush green paddy fields to barren lands, isnt it ironical that in the journey oflife , these lands depicts our phases of life?????
barren- when we feel bored lush- when we are full with energy.When the destined station comes we pack up but we never can predict when it will come just like we never know when we will end up in soil. But have we ever me the driver of train , in train journeys? answer may be NO , likewise in our journey of life, we ve never met the driver who takes us forward to the destination. Yeah we wud never meet God who s the real driver in this journey of life.
