Mumbai- Seems strange

The city that never sleeps but what if I wanted to sleep

The life is so fast paced but what if I wanted it to go slow

A great career and professional life but what about personal life

A real challenge for the beginners and what then

A life full of commitments to others and no time for oneself

The trains the rush the crowd the madness the rains it’s all relentless

But I need time..i need to slow down..i want to feel..i want to enjoy

I want to live again

So little did I know it back then when I had left Mumbai 2 years ago for my high profile MBA at a premier college, I had always thought of it as going from Mumbai “the city” to Pune “the not so city” and also felt that I come from a better city with better life, now 2 years hence I find myself back in my Big City and yet somehow everything seems so out of place..

2 months since I am back here and the initial façade of being back has died down so now when I sit down and think about it I somehow miss pune. Soo I am thinking of paying it a visit soon

I want to live those memories again some time soon, Pune i am coming soon

P.S.: The Job seems to be taking it’s toll .. I feel insane 

Ohh I have soo missed Mumbai..!!

Coming back from pune to mumbai was an emotional moment...not the coming back part but the whole leaving a part of my life behind and stuff...
Although i come back as a learned man (probably that's what i think) but pune will have a important place within me..
1st day at work...in mumbai...1st day in feild...1st the in the humid climate...1st day in the locals...all my memories came rushing back...i feel like i have been re energized or something..
The rush..the traffic..the roads..the noise...the madness...i had missed it all for some time now..but

I am Back..

Not much hass changed apart from a few more flyovers...little more traffic...and some extra people...
apart from all this the city still feels the same...it breathing heavy...it's still fun...it's still full of crazy people...it still has places to hang out and sit idle...it still is a home to many dreamers out there....and still the rickshaw wala's are talkative and a source of all information....(i wonder if the Intelligence ever tried them out for information)..

But all in all the city is still Happenning...and i soo love it....
Mumbai rocks..!! as it always did...
I love my city and no matter where ever i stay in the future i would always want to be back....
Cause today i know in my heart i am truly a MUMBAIKAR...

a word of advice to my friends who have got their joining in mumbai...

Yeh hai Mumbai Meri Jaan

The very reason why you hate the city
from the beggars...to the locals...
the heavy rush...to the heavy rains...
the dirt and pollution to the slums......is what defines Mumbai...
LIVE IT.

..
P.S.: 1000s flock to the city everyday and yet the city absorbs everyone..
it doesn't differentiate....it loves everyone equally...the city is not the problem...WE ARE.. 

It Open's at the END

The last episode of friends is what came to my mind when i left E-3(our flat),
The empty flat just made me remember that scene.
It was probably just not what i ever wanted to happen but again i had to move on
Today i feel if i could redo the past 2 years with all my friends and my room mates i will so happily do it,
I almost cried when i had to leave my home,everybody had already left and i was the last one,
Packing my stuff and sitting there in the dust with a few closed ones is when i realized it is really the end to this amazing journey of my career,SBS ends,MBA ends,student life ends,and so does a important phase in my life,
Got a job now,but no doubt learning will go on.

sipping a cup of tea i was thinking to myself,GOD please don't make me go through this ever again,but then am i asking him to stop me from growing,
Yes it is sad,so what.?
Emotions are very hard to understand,they don't show you the right path, they make you foolish, what has to be done has to be done is what i am making myself understand,
But so many memories
The way we talked together,laughed together,saw movies,had parties,fought and again came together,made fun of each other, will all be gone..i will always remember it...though I have many stories to tell.
But isn't life all about this moving on and going around telling stories..
"Woh jawani hi kya jismain kahani na ho".....but "kahani toh khatam bhi hoti hai na"

I don't feel good but i don't need to with time there will be a new story with new characters.
to enjoy and to,to breakup and again makeup is only human...so every now and then we are put to test...to see if we are still human..Law of nature...true story.."wink" ;)

It's been a wonderful time at E-3 specia..and today when it has all ended...i feel it has opened a emotional warehouse which i had been storing for a long time.
..
P.S.:    :(   :(   I am truly SAD

Many many Wishes...!!

Seems like i have soo much to give but yet everything i do seems soo little..

I don't know what do u expect or what you want...but from what i can do...there's a little bit which you might be proud to have.

So this one's for you

 

Your birthday is a reminder,of just how special you are.

In a world that can be crazy,
You are simply a calming star.

You live your life in brightness,shining for all to see.

A positive influence,on somebody just like me.

Yes, you are special,and in so many ways.

That i wish i had you since the day i came,

So, I’m thrilled to be sharing,on your special day

This little rhyme which might seem like a pebble in a hay

May you live a million years,and keep smiling like always

While you live for all that while,do wish for my company like always

Happy Birthday!

Today as you grow a year older...i want to wish you for all the previous years when i could not wish you...

Well as i said anything i do will seem little but then this was the best i think i could offer....

 

..
P.S.: May God Bless You Dear.
 

Missing my Loneliness...

Once there was a time when i used to have a lot of time for myself and for all my
creativity(as if there was any)
But anyways i used to think i am giving myself a lot to do and a lot of my mind seemed to be utilised..
and this was not a lot of time ago..just about a year ago...
My loneliness always gave me greater insight into myself  : "me time" i called it..

It always gave me time to think...and develop greater skills like writing for example...
My blogs are purely a creation of my loneliness

But today again i seem to be very occupied and very busy to do anything that i ever wanted to do...
it's like i have again come back a full circle...
From nothing-to-do TO no-time-to-do.....
My question is how did this happen....where did all the time go...and given that college runs for lesser hours now...
They say "An empty mind is a devil's workshop"
so has the devil started working in my mind...??


Point is i will never know and i will never try to find...
but then i will always complain..

but then given my nature i will try to fuse in my loneliness within my busy schedule...
Will it work or not i do not know...

but then after so many days i have again comeback to write...have i not..?
So i guess thats how it's gonna be...
So staying lonely is the need of the hour..!!
for me atleast..


..
P.S.: How can i miss loneliness..??....strange is my mind..!!

Happy Birthday To Me...

To say the least thank you all for your wishes,the surprises.the chocolates,the greeting cards,the cakes,the gifts,the emails,the testimonials,the hugs and last but not the least the LOVE...

At 4am sitting in my room in front of laptop i am just in awe after reading a couple of my FAN mails...:P...
I am filled with so much gratitude and pride that i am not even able to sleep..

As i turn 24 i find it too hard to digest some of the honors and titles that i am being awarded with....and i just want to thank everybody once again...

I feel like i have achieved soo much already...without even doing anything....
When i sit and wonder i really doubt being the person that others claim me of being..

It's 4 hours past my birthday now....but m still feeling the trance...

I want to say soo much about all my friends...every single one of them but...then not today...
and not like this...

For now it's just a Big Thank You to all of you...'

P.S.:  Special Thanks to Shruti & Niharika...your testimonials made me write this......i know it's boring but....then it's my blog...i can do waht i want..

When I fly....

They call me self contained...
Some say i am self obsessed...
then there are others who feel i am arrogant..
and some say i am hard to budge..

To each and everyone of you i have just one thing to say..

I DON'T CARE...!!!


I am here for what i am worth and i will stay here as long as i want..
Cause I never asked your opinion nor i cared for it anyways...
So if you don't like me or if you don't understand mee...
I have just one thing to say...

I DON'T CARE...!!!

I may seem crazy...i may seem like a person with attitude...
i may be harsh and i may be rude...
You may wonder as to why i am always soo crude...
But to tell you the truth...which cuts through the prude...

Is just that....

I DON'T CARE...!!!

When I fly i am so fragile....
That i don't mind about what i say...
I don't know if this is , just the flight or the height...
Which makes me say with such sight...

That..

I DON'T CARE...!!!

My purpose is clear..and now it seems to be near...
So all i want to say is if you have a tantrum to throw...
Then...

I DON'T CARE...!!!

Having said that there are a few ones for whom i do care....
But then those few ones would know....as to what do i do...

WHEN I FLY...!!!
..
P.S.: I know i have totally lost it....but seriously....I DON'T CARE...
