Sometimes we can laugh on Ourselves :D

Can we ?? Yes actually… Atleast I can, there’s no other option, you guys are correct, you can call me stupid, idiot, hopeless, senseless, duffer, whatever…
Fine, you can even laugh after reading the below scenes where I have unfortunately proved my dumbness :( :( :(

Scene1 – What a Skoda, woooowwwwww!!!!!!

BMW VS SKODA

A trip to Mumbai at my Aunt’s place, she stays in Textila Society on 4th floor. One of the walls in her Drawing room has a big sliding window, which covers almost the complete wall… So what?? We all had a habit of poking our nose into what people are doing in the parking lot, the garden and the walking area that was visible from that window. At the coffee time in the evening, we were waiting for bhabhi to arrange our coffee mugs with some muffins on the dining; meanwhile I just walked towards the window to get some air. And saw a beautiful car parked down in the parking lane, I started admiring its beauty, its colour, the length, the sun roof, everything actually. I told my sis who was standing next to me, “See the car, what a fab, I guess Skoda’s new model, but which one?” She just smiled. I called my Nayan bhaiya and told him; “See the Skoda yaar, which model is this??” He started laughing and told me, “Duffer this is not Skoda, It’s a B…M…W…”
OMG omg omg… How could I be so so so dummmmm… I know many times I get confused with their logo’s (both circular), but after admiring so much I should have understood it’s a BMW and not a Skoda…
And after that whenever we were roaming out and anybody saw a BMW, everybody used to say – “Look that, it’s Appu’s Skoda…” :(
Fine, it happens, even you can laugh…………………


Scene2 – Where’s the relevance of Wednesday in the movie!!!!!!


Hijack VS A Wednesday


It’s about the movie A Wednesday; I would never forget the name of this movie ever in my life. This was one of the biggest poo poo that ever happened to me in my life… :(
The movie Hijack also got released in the theaters on the same Friday with A Wednesday. I had already heard bad reviews for Hijack. Sunday afternoon, one my friend asked me for the movie; I told him if you could book the tickets for A Wednesday then im coming, otherwise im not interested in any other releases this week. I knew Wednesday is having wonderful reviews so it was impossible to get the tickets for Sunday evening. He called me in some time and told that he got the tickets and that too some C or D row. I was surprised but still trusted him. When we reached the cinema hall, I told him that show me the booking message I will get the tickets till the time you return from parking. But he told me that we still have lot of time for the movie so its okk if we park first and then take the tickets. When he took the tickets, he didn’t even passed them to me rather kept them straight into pocket. I was surprised but took it casually. Then we reached the screen and took our seats. When the name of the movie was going to get flashed he told me to put his jackets on the next seat that was empty and I got busy arranging my purse and his jacket on the next seat and missed the movie name. I was flabbergasted while returning back; there were so many questions in my mind. And then I asked him that, “ The complete movie got over and still there is no relevance of Wednesday in the movie; rather the complete movie was based on a plane hijack and they didn’t even mentioned that the hijack was on Wednesday or something; Howz that possible? I had seen The Missing Sunday some time back and the complete movie had the significance of its name.” He kept mute. When it was time to say Byee; he started laughing. I asked him, why are you laughing? He told me if you won’t thrash me down, I will tell you the truth and showed me the tickets. WTF… The name of the movie on the tickets was HIJACK; and me, was proved to be the most stupid girl in the world. I wish if I had seen some trailers about the movie or atleast while walking into the theater would have shut my mouth and paid attention to the big big movie posters; then nobody would have made such a big popat of mine. But my friends know what a brainless girl I am that it’s so easy to make fool of mine… ughh…


Scene3 – Ohh crap, it’s not a Shivaji statue!!!!!!

Rani Laxmi Bai VS Shivaji Maharaj

Im so sorry, I just hope those two immortal statues didn’t have a fight amongst themselves because of this idiot creature of the earth. Yes, im talking about Myself.
This happened when I was new to Pune and new to my job. The company bus used to drop me near a statue which was on a road perpendicular to my hostel lane. I never admired that statue or read the name carved onto the rock below it; I just used to see there’s a horse, but never gave a thought to who is riding that horse. My stupid brain that has a habit of reading the first or first few alphabets and guessing the complete word did the same this time, but with a statue. Daily I used to tell the driver to stop the bus near the Shivaji Statue and he used to put breaks. Some of my friends who used to get down on the same or the next stop always came forward with me near the door and gave their ears to my conversation with the driver daily. This went on for a month or so. When they had a stomach full of giggling, laughing, joking on me; they opened my eyes…
Frnd: Did you ever see that statue properly?
Appu: yes, what’s in that, it’s a Shivaji Statue.
Frnd: Are you sure?
Appu: yaa, but why?
Frnd: see again, it’s not a Shivaji Statue; it’s a statue of Rani Laxmi Bai
Appu: Whatttttttttttt (looking at the statue and laughing)
Frnd: (laughing laughing and laughing)
Appu: stop laughing… yaar, I always saw the horse and thought that it’s Shivaji onto it; never gave a second thought to check that it could be someone else this time.
Frnd: Ohh, look that… (Pointing to the statue)
Appu: what ??????????
Frnd: The baby seems to be now 4 years
Appu: What are you speaking?
Frnd: Last time I saw this statue, the baby was just born, this time it seems to be grown up; I think next time the horse would start flying, right? (laughing)
Appu: Just shut up, okk? Fine, it’s not that big deal… and dare you tell this to anyone…
Frnd: Everyone already knows about this… he he he
Appu: Noooooooo….. S@#&...
After this scene everybody used to tease me, whenever we crossed that statue, they used to shout “Shivaji Maharaj ki Jai” :( :(


PS… What are you thinking, should I go and get myself drowned in some “chullu bhar pani”… No ways……….. Better i get some new photographs clicked... wink wink :P

How about this one ??? :):):)

Belated Happy Birthday Appu...

Wish me welcome back... :)
Sorry, Appu was away for long... yes!!! I was not well, hospitalized, however im back to routine again...
But something important did happen in between, something that I celebrate every year as a Festival... Correct, it was Appu’s b’day on 24th October... 25 pats on my back; Appu completes twenty-five years on this God damn biggie earth. Dare you call me Dharti ka bojh :XX
Well, there’s a story behind my b’day. Before you read the next lines, promise me that you won’t laugh... :)
I celebrate my B’day for 3 days, 22, 23 and 24 October... Actually I was born on 22nd night 12 past 5, so that becomes 23rd... My birth certificate, school docs, every where the date is 22nd, and in that God wala booklet (we call it Patrika), its 23rd... But donno why my b’day is been celebrated on 24th from my childhood, so im in love with that date and I love people wishing me on 24th and for me that’s my birth date for sure...
I have a habit of sending SMS as a reminder of Appu’s B’day to all my friends on the day prior to the b’day... This year’s text was –
“Back in the eighties, on 24th Oct, a cute little baby girl was born.. Birds sang, Peacocks danced, Angels smiled, Parents named her Appu.. Don’t forget to wish her.. Happy Birthday to me.. :)”
Okk okk.. Stop laughing, its not that funny...

However, I do start having my cakes right from 22nd... wink wink
This year I was not well, unfortunately. It seemed like all my fantasies, my dreams for my b’day were already in the dustbin; but my darling family and darling friends proved me wrong... So happy to get proved wrong... wow wow wow.

Now here I go with this year B’day cakes and celebration story!!!
On 22nd we got some pastries to eat, just to compensate for a cake.
Next...

## Cake 1 – On 23rd evening my Masi brought me a cake of famous Kayani Bakery, which was actually my first cake for my 2010 b’day. Everybody was at home at that time and Appu heard her first B’day song... yippee. ## Cake 2 – On 23rd night at 12am my dear cousin Rohan, brought me a Mousse cake, it was so yummy, just 4 of us ate 2/3 of the cake.
## Cake 3 – On 24th, Afternoon time, bell rang, I opened the door and heard what, a shout – Happy Birthday Dear... woooowww... some of my college friends gave me a surprise... We did cut the cake, had lunch and did lot of bitching... ## Cake 4 – On 24th evening, we went out for a party at Hotel Desi Tadka with all Mummy side wala family and there I did cut my fourth cake which was a Katkat cake. You are correct; I was looking sexy even though I was not well...
## Cake 5 – On 12th November, (after returning from the big sick leave) all my team mates at office gave me a surprise party at Hotel Mezza9, they booked a canopy over there, got it decorated like the one we have in Ekta Kapoor’s K-series... and again a Mousse cake, a real yummy one... woo hoo I was so happy... it was a gr8 surprise. I don’t remember if I had both my hands (I mean just the palm) on my mouth and expressed like the way Sushmita did when she became Miss Universe.

So that’s how Appu’s Silver Jubilee was celebrated... Got loads of gifts and chocolates, was really happy and gay (please take the older dictionary meaning of gay). :D

Yes, I am not forgetting my return gift, a coffee mug from Westside :):) People, who have not received it, can use this e-mug and sip in a yummy coffee.
And following are some pics of Cake4 party with family...

Thanks for the Compliments, i know im looking S***... :):)


PS... For all of them who have not wished me – Sing Nowwwww...
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to Dear Appu,
Happy Birthday to you...

The Khadus Devils can continue with this –
Happy Birthday to you,
You live in a Zoo,
You look like a monkey,
Happy Birthday to you...

And the Darling one’s can carry on with this –
From good friends and true,
From old friends and new,
May good luck go with you,
And happiness too...

Ha ha ha ha... Thank you all for making my Birthday so Special... Muaahhh.

PSS... Not to forget the terrible, horrifying, scary tray of tablets, liquids, injections… (Sounds like missile names to me) here in the pic, it seems very less, however Appu did eat 20 plus injections and don’t make Appu count those tablets and liquids… And I promise I won’t complete that bottle of B-Protein, Dad I never asked you to get that big one, it tastes pathetic and I don’t want to puke daily after having it with milk… Im fine with Bournvita… :(

closely.

Jenifer - ajab prem ki gajab kahani--- no.
:) Nikita – U R Geet – Jab We Met... Appu is a girl with a lot of confidence and masti. She is a very straight forward girl with a lot of great expectations and the will to explore new things. She has learnt a lot from her own good and bad experiences. She now has the guts to face many things in life. She is the most favorite in her group as well as her office. Cheers to her and all the very best for her future...

One part that i know is definitely Kalpana because you are such a humanitarian, philanthropist and nature loving person that at one of your B'days, i remember, i wanted to gift you a movie called 'The Inconvenient Truth' as i knew you would be the right contact to spread that message world around. You love life, which is the most desirable characteristic of the hour and also you have got such a loving nature!!The second part is Aditi since i have not seen Jaane tu so i don't know Aditi well just like i still don't know a big portion of you Appu after sooo many years of being around you.But, for sure, any one of the above characters in the question could not have completely described you since you have a lot more Aura than just any single character above so i chose two of them. Believe me, i can write pages and pages on what you are but for now i think this should be enough.
:) Avishek – Your rooted family values makes you like Poonam..Your energy can any day can give Aditi a taste of her own medicineThe way you talk and have all the solutions in this world makes you so much like GeetYour style quotient is the most remarkable and there's Jazz for you in you..Ohh how much you love Shahrukh and still beyond that you believe in Love a lot..and also easily transform yourself between traditional and chic..that reminds me of Anjali..Kalpana because inspite of all your shouting and vibrancy you are at peace at heart and have a wonderful soul..Mira because you are practical and modern to the core. Will always have your way if you believe you are correctJennifer because you are cute and still just like a small girl..
:) Gaurav – mixture of Geet/anjali/Poonam… like Geet you are chulbuli .. like anjali you are true but attractive and like Poonam you are gentle(but not kind .. :D)
:) Kapil – Teena from k2h2.. scrool down……. Ur my friend Aparana and Teena is like you not that u r like her
:) Prajakta – Its Geet my dear….Kyon!! to tu bohot batte karti hain…bas jo tereko accha lagta vo karti hain…full of life. :)
:) Vishnupriya – u r Aparna, I know that u have a unique character

So what the graph says ----
So what am I exactly?????

PS… Thank You, my dear dear dear darling ones… You all made me so happy with your super cool replies… Love you all… :)

Work From Home (WFH)...

The Ayodhya Verdict on last Thursday gave a golden chance to all my team members @ office to work from home; so that we all are safe if there are any riots in the city.
What we three gorgeous team mates did ??? Something like *mauke ka faida uthana* !!!
Before going on with my chatter patter, this is indeed a bad news for the next Gen children... You all are going to have a new chapter added in your dreadful History text book, entitled as ‘The Ayodhya Verdict 2010’... Like as we had "Jallianwala Bagh Massacre ", a big big chapter to Learn and Write Exam... I am sure, after reading this; you will have a deep painful memory of that percentage graph which always went down because of the weak score in History...
Phewww... How I Hated this subject!!!

Coming back onto the track...
The Verdict was at 3:30pm, so before that we three Musketeers collected all the stuff that was needed for our survival for one complete day as we were going to home arrest ourselves in Appu’s house... As it was a WFH not a holiday, Laptop was the most important stuff to be carried...
My friends arranged their belongings, got adjusted a bit to my house and made themselves comfortable by changing into their loose pants *gharke kapde*; then we ate some Indian burgers (Vada Paw yaar) to fulfill our Tummy calls... We all went online at 5:30pm, this is the time when we start our work, US business hours... Yes, the client I work for is ATT; American Telephone and Telegraph... (jaise Indians ke liye BSNL vese Angrejo ke liye ATT, samjhee)


Collage of some pics which would explain how much fun we had...
***** 6:00pm, Chai (Tea) and bread-butter time; we all circled the stove, Namrata prepared tea and I was TRYing to toast the bread and all ate that simultaneously...
Back to work again, with all the gossiping... We watched all my older photo albums **I love to print photos and arrange them into albums without breaking the sequence of the day, year when I had clicked them**... I was explaining them each and every photo, with all the background, actions, expressions; well, they were actually listening patiently (2 hours I guess :D)

***** 8:00pm, Dinner time; we three are so much illiterate in cooking (worst is Me) but still tried to get our supper ready by ourselves... So what did we prepare??? You can call it a Pulav or a Biryani or a Khichadi whatever!!! As it was not a single recipe, with all our little awareness about cooking, we just mixed everything that we knew and tried getting those rice cooked... However, the special item that we prepared was by mistakenly good in taste, lol... we also made some potato veggies (Im mean Batata bhajiya), Tejal was pouring the batter with potatoes mixed into the pan containing hot oil and I was trying to sautĂ© them... Don’t get surprised, we actually succeeded in cooking or browning and getting our bhajiya ready to eat... We garnished the yellow rice with some coriander leaves and placed the bhaji onto a newspaper to make it less oily... Atlast the Bhukkad (hungry) gang had their yummy dinner... back to work again...

***** 2:00am, Coffee time; Appu’s specialty yum yum yum Beated Coffee... It’s not about praising me but people are crazy for my beated coffee... this is the only thing that I can prepare and prepare at its Best...

***** 4:00am, Sleeping time; we all went into our naughty dreams, with the alarms on, so that we wake up early in the morning...

***** 8:00am, Waking time; I woke up and called R Deccan; the new recliner seats theater in Pune... The guy at the other end told me that yes; they are screening Anjane Anjani at 9am on screen1... By this time it was already 8:30, I slapped my friends multiple times to wake them up... They woke up in terror and started yelling on me as I had poured so many slaps on their face... Truly speaking this is the best way, try it out. :D

***** 9:00am, Movie time; Amazing, wonderful, incredible, magnificent, astonishing blah blah blah; this is how R Deccan looked... The food counter had a rounded mirror ceiling, mirror walls, gave a casino like look; Lounge had a red velvet flooring with Red and white sofa’s and the cinema hall was all red with red recliner chairs... where you can sleep and watch movie, unfortunately single person can sleep on one chair... wink wink... sorry, we forgot our camera, so I don’t have any pics; however I will visit the theater soon with my cam and have supercool pics clicked, till then you have to wait... Movie was okk types, but still we had a blast... Girls in gang can have a blast any time any where any moment, right??

***** 11:30am, Back to pavilion; Our day that started yesterday afternoon did end over here and we all went back to our houses smiling, with a heart full of fun and masti...

Thanks to the Neutral Verdict, we had a calm atmosphere everywhere and ofcouse thanks again as it gave us a memorable day in our life :)

So who WON???

All from my Quadrant, I hope you can see the Winners Cup in between

India is a land of variety, with different languages, religions, geography, lifestyles, and cultures. However we still cling to each other with an indistinguishable frame called Indianism. And this was the theme of the traditional day and Quadrant decoration competition that held in my office on last Friday…

My desk is on the fifth floor at my office and the floor is divided into four quadrants, you can say four rooms probably 5000 sq feet each, with some passages, cabins for higher management, conference halls and meeting rooms collating the four quadrants as one floor. The theme of decoration was four parts of India – East, West, South and North India. My Quadrant was East India, and people here made it so much over-decorated; It appeared to me as so much Jhanky panky... all golden, silver, red, yellow, green, blue… they made it something like the proverb “Leave No stone unturned” as in “Leave no colour unused”… We used all those colorful paper ribbons, netted cloth called as “chunnar”, specific items from East India were pasted on the pillars, we also fashioned a Durga Devi’s mandir which added some extra points and painted a Rangoli on the floor, every desk was ornamented with different flowers, and finally gave it an IT punch with a PPT presentation which was all time running on the 48 inches of Samsung LCD on the wall opposite the entrance door and was screening Unity in Diversity with beautiful pictures and information about East India… Well, Sorry I don’t have any pics clicked of my beautiful quadrant as Cams are not allowed in our office, you know *highly secured area*… :D

All the Quadrants were so marvelously decorated that I assumed them to look like an Indian Bride *Dulhan*, with all that blushing on her face…

Q1 – I called my Quadrant as a South Indian Bride, who wore so much of jewelry that it touched her navel…in short half of her body is glittering with so much of gold, that at the time of wedding, all the attendees would be busy counting how much kilos of gold she is wearing…

Q2 – Quadrant opposite to ours was a Maharashtrian Dulhan for me, born in a middle class family, having jewelry half foot long, just covering her cleavage… (Guess her parents working in my Techm, so the pathetic salary is not allowing them to soak their bride in gold)

Q3 – To its right was surely a wedding in a poor family who earn just to fulfill the 3 basic necessities of life *roti–kapda–makan*… Opps, are we forgetting the fourth necessity s** (plzz wait, don’t go into your dreamy world now, complete my post and then continue with your reverie) So my Q3, it gave the impression that bride’s family is not so well to do and groom’s family did not contributed in the wedding so it was so less decorated. :D (Imagine Bride’s family to be the poor employees like us and the Groom’s family to be the management guys *bade log*)

Q4 – And the last Quadrant was my frv8… it looked like a wedding in Church; Bride dressed up in a attractive white gown… waaoo… it was decorated with different colours of balloons, the colour combination was all decent and classy… you can say Ekta Kapoor’s party decoration theme was used.

So who WON??

Needless to say, Of course it has to be Appu’s Quadrant, right?? East India takes the cup… ha ha… one thing we learn from this incident… If you crave for awards, you need to be more glamorous and expose yourself as much as you can *Guys, don’t take the literal meaning*…

We also had awards for a lady and gentlemen who wore best traditional attire… You are correct, Appu was looking The Best… but she didn’t wear something that would fall under East India… and the award was not for looking stunning but for how authentically you get ready… however both the awards were grabbed by colleagues in my Quadrant… yea, but as to avoid the word partiality, judges made a fare decision by sharing the Gentleman award with a Punjabi dressed up guy from Maharashtrian Bride… So in short all the awards were lined up in Appu’s Quadrant… ha ha… winning gesture for me…

So here are some pics of traditional day, as I told you no camera’s so pics are not that good, however bearable… People having photogenic face would always look good (this is not apne mu miya mitthu)… wink wink…

Its Me...


Winning Lady - Anuja
Winning Guys, to the left from my Q - Swastid

Ethnic Walk ( with no Ramp :(( )

PS. It was all so Fun... A happening break from daily routine... :)

**Tring Tring...




Yesterday, I got to know that Friday is a traditional day and I have to wear a sari in office…
I don’t have any sari, my native is 3 hours from the city where I do job and there is no way that I can go to my home and get the things done…
So what did I do… Phone-o-phone…
People say that I suffer from Phonolia, all the time when I start from my flat till I reach office im talking over the phone (its next to 25kms, approx 45 mins)… and this hobby of mine helped me today…
I have two elder sisters, and I wanted one sari from each of them so that I would have a choice on what to wear… And both would be happy getting so called importance and knowing that they have a good stalk in their wardrobe… So this is how I utilized my hour –

**Tring Tring - First I made a call to my eldest sis, Vaishali Di to tell her that she has to send me her sari and asked her if her husband is going to come to Pune (where I currently stay) in a day or two, she told me she will enquire and let me know. So I had to proceed with next call…
**Tring Tring - Next I called my second elder sis, Sheetal Di and she told me there is no one in her contact who will be coming to Pune. No is what I heard…
**Tring Tring - Then I called Dad and asked him to check his contacts. Dad says - Let me see…
**Tring Tring - After that I called my younger sis, Bhakti, if any of her friends would be travelling to my city. A No again…
**Tring Tring - Called my cousin bro, Rohan, and he is busy in some elections and don't have anyone comming to Pune soon... okk...
**Tring Tring - Then I made a call to my Masi (mothers sis) and asked her to see if she can help me. Masi says – lemme me check and call you back…Next What ???
After a 50-50 assurance, I thought I should have a backup plan***
**Tring Tring - I called my cousin married sis, Girija Di, who stays in Pune and told her that if I don’t get anyone coming to Pune, I will visit her tomorrow and get her sari. However she is quite tall, so having her Blouse fit me better would be a problem…
**Tring Tring - So I made another call to a friend cum sis, Nive Di, and conformed that she is my last option.

My colleague sitting next to me started laughing het guts out and told me that you are impossible. Just for a mere traditional day you made 10 calls and made it conformed that by hook or crook you will have your outfit ready… (that was true actually)
By this time we had reached office…
**Tring Tring - And guess what! I got a call from my eldest sis with second elder sis on conference to discuss which sari I want, since now they have 2 people coming from my native to Pune next day morning. One of those is - Masi ke Jethani ki Mummy (Don't ask me to translate)
“Smart me to get my work done - What I did ?? Just made some calls and had so many people working on my such a big big big issue.” ... ha ha ha
Next 20 mins my sisters were explaining me their new designer sari’s, the colours, what kind of work, print it has, how heavy it is, about the border of the sari, and what jewelry they would be sending me, what chappals I can wear and all the Ladies stuff…
OMG!!! is this what ladies do over the phone calls when they get married… Even I’ll be doing the same… Noooo please…
At the end of all, my making so many calls was actually worth… ha ha…
So stop laughing (on me) and use my Mantra… hmm, I guess I can rush into management soon… Keep it up Appu… he he…

**Tring Tring – Was that funny ?? :(

PS. Google is mind blowing, Love you Google baba… I came across this pic when I was searching for some sari pics… Imagine!!!
Girls, watch below and learn How to Wear Sari… :D

Sorry Day...


Guys,
Today is a Sorry day for us, I mean for all Jains… We ask for forgiveness for all the mistakes done in past one year which might have hurt someone… so here I go –
In Marwadi (my mother tongue) – Bara Minna mai kai bolan chalan mai ayo asnar tar shamayachna, Micchami Dukkdam
In Hindi – Bara mehno mai kuch bolne karne mai aya ho jisse apka dil dukha ho to shamayachna, Micchami Dukkdam
In English – Forgive me if I have hurt you in last twelve months, knowingly or unknowingly...

Last 8 days we were celebrating something that we call as “Paryushan”… In these 8 days we don’t eat anything that grows on trees or underground, we are allowed to eat just some sort of pulses. And our special thingy called Khakra (it’s a kind of hard Roti, difficult to explain). In short, all kind of pathetic Indian food that one can imagine, we were eating for the whole week… Today, lunch – dinner, all the time I had potatoes, yum yum yum… God, I missed it badly… tomorrow McD and day after Dominos and then I would have my stomach full…
Also we do a lot of prayers in these days… Surprisingly but true, I had been doing Pooja in Mandir for 5 days… 5 on 8 not Bad atall… :) But I actually Love doing this Pooja…
Most Jains do fastings (we call it as Vaas), may be for one day, 2 days or for 8 days… this kind of fasting is very difficult, we can’t eat or drink anything for the whole day, except for the boiled water that too just till evening 6pm. I was also fasting on Sunday; this was the biggest day for the fasting this year. The whole Sunday I was waiting for Monday 7am to dawn, so that I can stop my stomach from crying…
I don’t know when I would extend that one day to 8 days… Imagine, Appu not eating anything for 8 days… Phew! Even the imagination is terrible… ha ha ha…
My frndz tell me that rarely they come across species like me and if I go for such fasting, one day discovery channel would send an alarm throughout the world to stop fasting for people like me or the species would get Extinct… Was that hilarious??? Nooo… :(

This is how I looked when I was a Kid… :)


One of the nottiest daughters of my Dad… Yes, im my dad’s sabse jyada Ladki (the most fvr8)… My granny always tells me some big time pranks that I played and everyone had to snatch their hair out… I was very close to my Nani (Moms Mom) :D and my Masi (moms sis).


*** When I was not even one year old, my Aunt took me to Mumbai, her house, to adopt me and my parents didn’t had a problem as they already had 2 daughters and I was the third one. But then someone who is going to have her first b’day in some days, do understand who her parents are for sure. There I acted like they all are terrorists who kidnapped me, cried a lot, messed whole house, didn’t had food properly and lastly fell unwell.. ha ha… Dad, mom, masi and all rushed to Mumbai to take me back home… :)… and I did celebrate my first b’day in Amachi Mumbai…

***When I was say 3 or something, it was my elder Mamaji’s (mom’s bro) marriage and I had locked myself in a room, donno how and had slept so tight that everybody banged the door but Appu (me) did not wake up… they even tried throwing water on me through window, but I was sleeping like I have sold all my gold mines and now I don’t have any worries in life… Then the grills of window were broken and someone (don’t remember who) came in and opened the door… by that time, the holy time given by the priest (Pandit) for mamaji’s marriage was already over… :D

***I grew up a little more, had started going to a pre-primary school, and I used to stay at my Nani’s house as my dad’s mom was not well and my mom used be busy taking care of her. Masi had become a real darling to me… and one fine day I heard someone saying that Masi is going to get married, by that time I knew marriage means she would leave our house and stay at some other place. I had tears in my eyes and just ran out the house. Everyone was shouting my name but I didn’t turned behind, just told that if Masi won’t be staying hear even I won’t stay and somehow reached dad’s home (Mom’s bro was anyways following me). Mom’s both the homes (before marriage and after marriage) were not so far from each other, so it was not very difficult for me to reach dad’s house. And then actually I never went back to stay at my Nani’s place for many years… :D

Everyone has a beautiful childhood and gr8 memories of those times… lets try to make a time machine and go to those tention free days back… What say ??? :):)
