Well it's time for another update but I think it's 3 days earlier, the reason for that you will come to know as you read.
The following are not in sequence but in random order, because it's tought to recollect so many things in sequence.
1. Forgot SAM's birthday (21st Nov), will never forget this day in my life...So called her up and said infinite sorries...and she agreed by the condition that I would send her a song written especially for her.(Started writing the blog after the call :) ).
2. Well to start off, went to Divyansh's and Ashwini's bday party at china valley( total bill was 10,000 !!!) :P.
3. Went for shopping in vashi's raghuleela where rishabh took 4 hours and bought nothing and I took 30 mins and did a shopping of 4000 !!. Divyansh was the sufferer who was the audience for the whole time. Mohit and Ajeytaa were also there.
4. Finally going to hyderabad for the Ascend Program by Jet Airways flight on Monday. Our whole batch is going to stay in a 5-star hotel for 2 days and 2 nights :), so just imagine the amount of fun.
5. Bought tickets for the India-Aus cricket match which was going to be held at DY Patil Stadium but the match was washed out due to rains. :(, but the tickets got refunded and instead of the match we hanged out in vashi ( We = Me, rishabh, tanvi , ajeytaa , divyansh, mohit , vaibhav). We played pool,ate ice cream at hokey pokey's and food at bhagat tarachand, awesome maxxx food, reminded me of Jodhpur.!!!(This was the first day I went by car to vashi officially, informing my parents about it :P).
6. Went to tanvi's house (in Tardeo) for a night out, where we played poker ( I won the max , doubled the money). Tanvi made awesome burgers for us, in which we helped her cook. I ate three of them :).I, rishabh and tanvi did a marathon walk to marine drive because tanvi wanted to prove that her house was 10 mins away from marine drive, played dumb-charades and ate at chowpatty, I and Tanvi did a bottoms up on a jaljeera soda in which I won :P, travelled ticketless in train from marine lines to Grant road,watched the movie "Exorcist", slept only 1 hour at her house, and went back in the morning. We called up ajeytaa at 4:30 am from tanvi's house(she was awake !! at that time), I decided to act like I was drunk and she totally fell for it, once again proving that ajeytaa is dumb as usual. :P (People involved in this trip :- Me, rishabh , tanvi , divyansh, shashank , alpita)
7. Then one day went to rishabh's place for a night out.Since we were engrossed with carrom in office, I brought my carrom board to rishabh's place. we also played poker, in which I won a few bugs. Tanvi and I defeated rishabh and Divy by 4-0 in carrom :).Later we went to drop Tanvi at her house which was a interesting journey, we played "make a story" and later we all discussed our bucket list (the things we would like to if we knew we are going to die in a year) and we all became senti types :) but soon returned to normal.Ajeytaa joined us at Bandra station, where her phone went dead and I had to try hard to find her in the crowd. Dallas joined us in marine drive after which we( Me, ajeytaa, rishabh, divy and dallas) all went to flora fountain and ate the most infinite maxx awesome sizzlers of our lives.
8. Then again one day, we decided a night out at rishabh's place. Again we played poker etc. Ajeytaa joined us after her AIMCAT.Again we went to drop Tanvi, but this time through Bandra- Worli sea link :). (Awesome feel....).
9. Finally made a facebook account that only to add work friends and play online poker and nothing else.( not adding any IIT "friends" etc.)
10. Finally got a billable project after I talked to Amita in a sarcastic manner. The new project is Johnson and Johnson (based on informatica and kalido and right now working on A+ module of the project with bhushan). I did some SIT(system unit testing for the CTR module by which the project manager was impressed to see my dedication). Basically now I am going to work on a new tool altogether - Informatica, which further expands my skill set after SAP-BW.
11. Reguarly going to society gym at nights after 9 pm(because nobody is there after that time). Feeling quite fit now-a-days, have reduced 1 kg already and feeling something heavy on my biceps :). I regularly praise about my biceps etc but people like ajeytaa and tanvi bring me down to earth when they poke me at my belly :(. Still lot to lose, hoping I would succeed.
12. Watched ajab prem ki gazab kahani in vashi with rishabh, tanvi , ajeytaa and divyansh. Enjoyed a lot, few scenes were god like. (Some people tried to apply brain in this movie so they would certainly hate the movie :) ).
13. I, rishabh, ajeytaa, vaibhav, mohit, tanvi , janani, we all went to nirmal lifestyle one day. There , we ate at McD, played pool, bowling, watched the movie "Julie and Julia" which was all about food and food. ( We all felt so hungry in between the movie that in interval we all went out like hungry tigers and bought everything possible to buy in those 5 mins and ate all those throughout the movie :P ). After all this, since everyone didn't pay at once, I prepared an excel sheet with color coding and graphical depiction of all the expenses (activity wise and individual wise) and also the due amount of each person. They started calling me excel God since then :P.
14. Went to Yokos sizzlers with vandita, srijoy (My SAP-BW buddies), divyansh, ashish mangal, and dallas. Played dumb-charades there. (Vandita is awesome in dumb-charades).
15. Well as mentioned in above posts, everywhere we played dumb-charades whenever we got a chance. Like in marine drive, our team(rishabh, me and divyansh) defeated (Tanvi, alpita , shashank) where tanvi was known as a renowned player. Ajeytaa's acting skills are horrible in dumb-charades. Divyansh is the worst (He is although good in giving names of movies to opponent, one eg:- Blizkrieg). I and rishabh make the perfect team. I can act well and he can guess very well.We even played it in office (canteen , breakout area, near divyansh's desk).
16. The sports meet of deloitte is going to be in Jan, I am the volleyball SPOC (single point of contact). I may also play cricket in this (My long lost love :)).
17. I and ajeytaa had a serious fight when I somehow managed to find an old photo of her in which she had a pony tail( Hahahaha:) ). She was very happily laughing and constantly waking me up in the bus, but when we reached office and I told her about the pic, her mood changed and she started saying - " Arey yaar sorry naa .. plz dont show this pic to anyone.. plz.. dont mail it.." and when we went to canteen, she stopped talking to me or anyone. The whole day she didn't talk. Then when we were going back rishabh and divyansh were already gone by 5:30 bus, so only me and ajeytaa were left. She finally talked and asked me whether I was coming or not. I was relieved and realized that ajeytaa in deep is a good girl, she forgot everything as if nothing happened. On the way back, I taught her few lines of bengali, listened to songs, and so everything was normal and I was happy. This incident made our friendship more deep. Unfortunately she may leave us next year because she is preparing for CAT this year and she will surely get through it. I, rishabh and divyansh would miss her the most ( humare belapur bus ki shaan - ajeytaa ).
18. Well apart from ajeytaa, there is Tanvi who is like this violent girl, who has her own way of saying what's up(waddup ?? :) ). I always have a "chattis ka akda" with her. She is my carrom buddy in office after rishabh, rival in TT(I always win :P), if by chance we are in a elevator with no seniors around we would start fighting (Yah real fighting - kicking , slapping , hitting, everything ). Ajeytaa accompanies her when she needs help :P but in vain. Rishabh, divyansh have also witnessed this when we go for breakfast to canteen. I told her to sign a peace treaty with me but she doesn't agrees to it.
19. Continuing with fights, another girl - Janani aka Mate aka Freak. She is the freakiest person on earth that you can imagine. She needs a reason to fight thats it. (actually the roots of fight go back to diwali practice when I kicked her when she was not singing properly :P .. ). From that day till this date she calls me her slave and gives me instructions which I never follow. Side by side I am giving her guitar lessons, on gmail voice chats and in general too :P.
20. After all of the above experiences, now comes the most enlightning experience of this month. If you look at this as a third person who might see anything substantial but for me it meant something. So one day I was all happy and smiling, went to office, played guitar, did work and came back home. Suddenly I noticed my wallet is missing. Ohhh my God - I recalled everything that was in my wallet - 2000 rs, driving license, ATM/debit card, My IIT Alumni card, IIT madras's opeth concert ticket, few memorable coffee beans and "one memorable hand-made bday card". I was devastated. I was so angry on myself for being careless. So many memories attached in one wallet and they went away in a flash. I tried to search for it everywhere but in vain. I even checked in the bus in which I came back, my bag, everything but it was not there. I blocked my ATM card by calling customer care. My mom and dad were also angry on me. The driving license is tough to get, also the alumni card. I thought in my mind everything can come back but not the opeth concert ticket and the bday card. I had lost all hope, when I decided to call up Tanvi who was still in office. So I called her up and told her to search for my wallet at two places - my desk and the healing room, is she doesn't finds it then ask the security guards if they have found one or atleast report it to them. She agreed and told me that she would call me back. After about 45 mins, she called and said - "sorry soham ! mujhe nahi mila!. I said- "Security walon ko bola?". She replied - "Haan bola to hain, but keh rahe hain ki aise milna mushkil hain". I agreed. She added - "Kitna cash tha wallet me? " .I said -" Cash ki to chhod, bahut kuch chala gaya saath me :(, driving license , ATM card ". She said -" Ohh ATM card bhi, tune block karaya ATM card ko ?". I was going to say the next statement but she interrupted by saying - "Block karwana bhi mat kyunki I have it with me !!!" . For a moment I thought she is playing a very bad trick with me, so I asked her in a very dormant volcano mode - " Agar tere paas hain to bata kya kya hain uske andar? (I feared she would find the bday card but didn't care that time)". She started by saying - " ATM card, 500 ke note hain, Driving license with a very bad photo of mine, two photographs, IIT ka I-Card..", and I stopped her there only and said - "Wow, I believe you !!!!, awesome max.. thank u thank u ......you dont know how much trouble u have saved me from, I am your slave now, tell me what u want, just tell me... Wow ... thank u thank u ..", and I went on saying things even I don't remember now. This incident just made me realize how easily and how fast one can lose something very close to one's heart, it reminded me again of the importance of remaining satisfied with what we have, we may not value the things which are very next to us but suddenly realize their place in our lives when they are not there.
Well now the reason I feel that I am writing this post 3 days earlier because we all are going to Hyderabad tommorow, and god knows what will happen when 120 of us will attack a 5 star hotel :P.
