Long since i penned something into my bloggie. The new year passed. So did my birthday and my blog’s birthday passed. No, I didn’t forget any of them, but wasnt in any mood to celebrate any. Year 2010 was a very good beginning. A lot of first timers happened with me. Some i was excited about and some I lost hope on.
The year began with one I wanted to experience always. I wanted to see the solar eclispse. And this year gave me an opportunity to do so. One Ms.R in office was generous enough to explain in the style of the character Dushyant of ‘Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai’ Fame, and explained me the day starting from the dialogue ‘Let Me Explain…’. We had a gala time in office that day, since we had less work and many didn’t turn that day to office since they had added this day also as another day to their long weekend. Ms.S had hired my goggles to catch a glimpse of the solar eclipse and was running in and out of the office raising questions to her mom on phone saying ‘Suno Mummy…. Dekho.. toh..’ al the time. Finally we decided to take a chance and Ms.R and I accompanied her to the cafeteria in our building, Just when we reached , we watched a big cloud passing over the sun and could see the eclipse clearly on the floor of cafeteria. Wow, that was some experience.
We all came down and again Ms.R started ‘Let me Explain….’ theory of explaining it to all about our experience. Both me and Ms.R had lot of issues with the test environment and decided to stop working for the day, because nothing was working in our favour at work
The next one was my birthday. My sis surprised me with a big hand-made album with all my pics from my younger age till now. Got lot of gifts but this one would stay special. No matter how much we fight, for one day i forgot everything. S brought me the most special gift and wished the most wonderful wish one can ever wish for someone. I havent seen it in movies ( it even isn’t in a writer’s imagination), the most beautiful wish ever..
Then there came the day, when the moon would seem the brightest and biggest of all. S called me in the morning and told me about the moon. I was quite excited about the fact that, he being interested in photography would surely take some shots. But both of us were in no mood to get excited about it. Still i didnt want to miss it. I wanted to see how it really looked. Moon had always been my dreamland from i dont know how long. I used to imagine so many things as a kid and end up saying a ‘na… not my types…’
Then poured the wedding cards, invites and reception gala.. for year 2010. Out of 100% of people i met throughout my career, about 5% got wedded with parents’ approving their son’s or daughter’s choice thinking that’s what would keep the kids happy and will keep them happy seeing them happy. Whereas 95% are still struggling to either find the right match or struggling to make their parents agree to the match. So this shows i have a lot of company
Mrs.V in my team is a expecting mom, and she’s having the most beautiful days in life. She placed my hands on her itsy witsy tummy and asked me to stay calm for sometime, and boy!! did he kick hard..!! Me and Ms.R were so excited. Ms.R was like.. ‘isnt it weird, a person is sitting, and something is moving inside kicking from inside’
but this was the first time, i felt some baby from inside a tummy kick me
God bless the mommy and the baby
Last but not the least, I met my blogger friend who blogs here. Ladies and gentlemen, thats Shylu for you. We both work in the same organisation and got lucky to meet each other. It was the very first time I was meeting someone out of web and I’m so glad about the attempt. Though i was a little skeptical about it, and kept my terms and conditions to her before we met, She happily broke all the rules and conditions applied
jus kidding shylu..
We had a good time, spoke for long. The best part is we recognised each other the first attempt itself without exchanging phone no.s.
After all these happenings I still feel quiet lost. Something somewhere is missing . Unknown of what I’m seeking for. Seeking what my karma is.. too much in just two lines.. i can still go on..!!
Will come up with a travelogue very soon, Also with some pics of meet with Shylu.
Edited to Add:

Yup..!! That’s me and Shylu:-)
Shylu: Please dont scold me for the modifications with butterflies… and borders. That was to suppress the double-chin and colgate ad.
