Three In A Row :-)

5th October 2012 


Oh my God! This was day of coincidences man!!...and you know what?? All Good. I mean it got better and better. Second one was better than first and third was better than second. This was a day my friends had planned and I had all reasons to avoid it. 



Firstly I said I might not get permission. Then I got permission. We were planning out details over Fb chat and it struck me that it was a good friend's B'day. I refused once again but then I chatted with the Bday gal and asked if she had got some plans. She hadn't as she has exams next month. I again agreed. Then I couldn't sleep till 4 am. I messaged my friends at 4 that i cant sleep, wont be able to make it tommorow and blah blah blah. Morning, very unusually, I got up at 8, I had messages in phone from my friends. I talked to them. Eventually I agreed though I wasn't feeling well. But it was totally worth it and I loved what happened.


No.1: I reached my bus stop to get a metro-feeder and I missed one by just 5 seconds. It takes 15 minutes for next to arrive usually. But then I saw a friend I hadn't really been in touch for sometime. Coincidentally  Her bus wasn't coming. She told me usually it came on time but ......... We chatted for some 15 minutes and I liked that I  got to meet her all of a sudden. After that My bus came and I left.


No.2: I was going to downstairs at Rajiv chowk to change metro. I just spotted a good friend and we spent some 7 8 stations together. I met this friend after  a real long  time and once again I had a great time chatting.



I reached the spot and then as usual, we had a gala time. Here are some pictures I shot:
  



                             




                             





                              


No.3: Evening I was coming home. I got out of metro station and took feeder and as I entered, I saw one of my teacher sitting there. I met her after some two years. She used to teach me in ninth standard. I am in contact with many of my teachers. I have always had good relations with them. I am so blessed that way :-) I chatted with her all along the way and updated her about others from our class. She had her daughter with her too. She even din't let me purchase my ticket, you know. I mean, its not about a ticket, its about the way she treated me. "You are with a teacher. I can't let my student pay when I am here. I am purchasing for my daughter. So are you to me" I argued a bit but then Ofcourse I couldn't. It made me remember all my classes. She really is  a good person as well. I mean some teachers these days are only building up resumes you see by attending seminars and some different stuff  I am not anyways against that. But some teachers presume these things more important than their "students" or "teaching" either. I am glad I have had so many good teachers who love teaching and their students. Other things come later for them . This teacher is also one among those and also falls in the category of my beloved teachers just like this teacher. 



I just had to blog about this. I loved this day!!

For Love (Or Not) Of Books...

I remember the time in 2012, January or February, when I began reading , I was so hungry for books. I would spend the whole day reading. And the books I read then, I still remember the story, some lines even today. I used to have at the most three unread books at a time, not starting a book until I was done with the one I was reading. I might not have read many , but that was better. Slowly I developed a mania, not exactly of reading but of purchasing and collecting. Collecting books is a hobby, even an obsession but I am not against that. But I am against piling up unread books one over the other onto the bookshelf. It’s a pure disregard. Or may be it doesn't work for me! I just hate my bookshelf these days. It’s having so many good books yet I am not reading any. In fact, even if I am reading, I have realised that it’s more to finish a book than to read. I am in the middle of four books this time. It sucks you know. Leave. So, no more purchases

This post is a part of  Write Over the Weekend , an initiative for  Indian Bloggers  by BlogAdda Chosen among the Loved posts!! "Again you are scribbling..Can't you put your nose off your books and papers for sometime?" my mother snaps at me as I scribble a poem. "Oh ma! Atleast listen to what I wrote" "Hmm...tell" "Ahmm ahmm" I pretend to clear my throat and My mum laughs back. "Will you open your mouth or should I go back to kitchen?" "Oh!No-no please!" I say quickly and grab her by elbow. Who doesn't want audience? ;) Listen," Life's unpredictable, Can't say when it would take a turn. We can't really say, When life might be deprived of all fun. It's true, What elders say, You should know to walk alone; No matter  Come what may. She smiles and looks at me for some time curiously. "You write well and what you've written is indeed true."

*FICTION* I was going through all the messages and chats we had shared just a month back. How things change I wonder!! Re-reading them was like going through many emotions. Those lines still gave me the same smile, same laughter the way they had given me a month before or so. Though yes, this time, those were accompanied by a li'l sadness and a wish. A part of me still wished if it could be continued, if we could take it further. A wish that at least it should not have ended so abruptly like this. He thought for a while and thought about calling her. Perhaps he could change this. There was no point in continuing but he was feeling a turbulence inside him. He had always felt something different about her. After his previous relationship which ended on a bitter note, he came across somebody different. The reason why they became friends and then why he chose to end everything were unknown to him. It started all of a sudden and then ended. He knew he had his 'be pract
