We miss u Sachin!!!

The man who epitomes God himself, The greatest genius cricketing world has ever seen, The cricketer with mammoth records,  The king of centuries, The man who single handedly won several matches for team India,  The most loved and worshiped celebrity of India, The man who absorbed pressure of 1 billion expectations, The man who ruled the international cricket for two decades,..... has called-it-off!!!!

I think  Mayan calendar was right in way, for 1 billion cricket fans its nevertheless an End of the world indeed!!!

We miss u Sachin!!!!!

Gayle Vs Malinga

For SL its d now-or-never opportunity to break their world cup final jinx and grab the title at home. For Windies its time to bring back their glorious past.

Now the entire T20 tournament boils down to a simple equation… The current best T20 batsman (Gayle) Vs the current best T20 bowler (Malinga).

The one who holds his nervous and successfully convince his own mind that he is better than the other best.... will have the last laugh.

Looking forward for an existing match.... :)

Happening or Making?

From past few days this question was lingering in mind

Love really JUST-HAPPENS or WE-MAKE-IT-HAPPEN?

Going by our bollywood movies which heavily sells the former idea that somewhere someone spl is made for u and one fine day u happen to meet.. and from that moment ur love at first sight takes off (sounds interesting)
well, it can happen perhaps @ one point of time all of us might have felt that ahhaa moment in our life.
Infact few of us went ahead with that relationship and very few of us converted in to life-time-commitment but many of them went in vain.

This is where MSK-VANI poses the question, if he has found his love-of-life or soulmate then why should it go in vain?
And this is where we "WE-MAKE-IT-HAPPEN" comes into picture.
The JUST-HAPPENS can give u an exciting start and all those butterfly-in-stomach feelings and we make the bond instantly with the person but....... is it enough to hold on to a relationship? mind u..we human are fickle minded so does our Rships.

As they say talent can only fetch u rewards till ur school days or till under-19 events, if u really want to be a pro or to be truly successful then we should look upto WE-MAKE-IT-HAPPEN attitude... with our commitment n dedication we need to nurture our talent CONSISTENTLY then only it can make difference in our lives else you will remain school-days-champ for rest of ur life.

Applying the same funda to love I guess I found my answer ..... u just cant relay on JUST-HAPPENs sort of love, WE-MAKE-IT-HAPPEN should be in place to make it a successful love.

Well I wont think twice to go step forward and utter: @times WE-MAKE-IT-HAPPEN sort of love alone is strong enough to withstand d storm, where as JUST-HAPPENs sort of love cant do it alone and ......storms r obvious in any long term Rshpis...mind it!!

Happy Love making :)

Identical Valentine days?

I think its more than couple of years, may be ever since this UPA is in power (well, as everyone is after UPA ryt from inflation to corruption let me blame them for this too) my V’days have became identical , be it 2010 feb 14 or 2011 feb 14 n now 2012 feb 14…. No difference!!!.

I don’t remember when was the last time I had been to Archies gallery or booked flowers or gifts online.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But lately I realized that not having a particular valentine on given Vday has been more interesting than having a FIXED ONE!!!

Infact these were much more unidentical Vdays than the previous one.

Now the possibilities are wide open, u r free to see a valentine in the girl next door to you or the girl who sits just behind your cubicle or the girl U met in FB last nite or also sometimes the girl with whom u shared a seat for a while (thanks to Indian railways and shared rikshas :))

It could be annnyyy one and…that’s the FUN.

I think I found my new mantra for this Vday….” Be terribly crazy and have fun ” ;)

Happy Vday!!

My first hunt -- Part 3 -- A Never Ending Saga

It’s been couple of months for my first hunt but it is still haunting me!!!

Since then I came across few more proposals and now finding it hard to keep on denying without any specific excuse, even my favorite savior line “I need some time” seems to be helpless these days.

And at last, bro said, dude set a deadline soon.

Al right!! Here I go with my favorite panel of I, me and myself for a brainstorming session.

Well, from long time it’s been a standard process for me to take my long term decisions by either fast forwarding or going backward to 5 years from now.

Fast forwarding myself to next 5 years:

Five years down the line will I be happily involved with someone for the rest of my life? Will I prefer to be more responsible? And will I still prefer the chick chase and single hood?.
Mmmm….Not sure.

Al right let me try the backward process:

When was just done with my Engineering and was about to start my professional life. Getting into a 9-6 job for 5 days a week for a highly disorganised freak like me looked like a daunting life style, but if I would have backed out at that time I would not have grown in my life.

Just to convince myself I went 5 more years back:

When was aiming to do my engineering having studied in kannada medium for 10 years and all of a sudden expected to study all those dry engineering subjects in English looked an impossible task (as I was scared with English  ) but I just took it up and managed to get an engineering degree and surprisingly with an affinity for English language.

Hmmm……Looks like these two backward analogies are striking the cord.

At least they made me to think over whether I am really running away from the next challenges of my life? Am I not willing to get in to the next phase of life only because it seems daunting and demanding?

May be right now I don’t have any clear answer, and I can’t stop pondering unless I deduce the one .

Hope one fine day I will deduce my answer and may come up with a last part of this post “My first Hunt” but till then let my hunting blog keep you haunting, best of luck :)

My first hunt -- Part 2 -- I need some time

I was just making myself comfortable in the back seat of gaddi (I needed to relax badly after getting rid of those (20*2) + eyes) bro whispered again “So….?”

Immediately same question popped up from mom too “So beta…?” and obviously I repeated the same to myself …so what??? And a complete blankness followed in.

You know, I am a typical Gemini, very indecisive may be more than a typical geminate but for that moment I survived with my favourite saviour line “I need some time”.

Finally, I set a meeting with I, me and myself to take a decision on this.

Nope I could not figure out a single advantage (apart from ONE obvious ;) ) besides could see hell lot of negatives if say yes to this, just not this any alliance for that matter.

Just to count few

1.The very thought of sharing my rest of life with someone else sounds so freaky! And mind you she is still a stranger to me so its more freakier.

2.COMMITMENT!!!! If I say yes to her it obviously means stop chasing/flirting/staring other girls. Then the very purpose for hanging out with friends on the weekends in malls, pub and canteen is lost.... inshort the fun is lost.

3.I should bid good bye to my hard earned freedom and happy days of single hood, I think single hood is the only phase of our life which truly and only belongs to ourselves.

4.Now I should start living my life as per her wish, I hate this part the most.

5.Be accountable for your where-abouts and how-abouts for 24/7.

6.This one is the killer ....You have to buy two new cell phones (Preferably reliance with R to R free since you’re the one to pay the bills) and gift one to her. Now every day… literally ever day log in to call as soon as you get up and continue to be logged in while your working and wait.. u r not done yet...call goes as long as your day is on :( .

Do I need all this??? …..NOPE, clearly no, (very seldom I get clear answers when I set a meeting with I, me and myself).

So I mustered my courage and said to mom “mom say no to them, I can’t get into this.” (And how can I get away without using my favorite line) “Mom,I NEED SOME TIME”.

As usual this line worked and I managed to get escape from my first hunt.

My first hunt --- Near death experience

Finally after a long pursuit of one of our close family friend I agreed to meet his family friends daughter for the alliance (back in my mind was excited after seeing her photo :) )

PART - I

Before getting into their home Big B whispered ”Don’t be nervous dude” and that was enough to shake my confidence :(

Amused (Horrified) to see some 20+ people and later get to know that many of them are their relatives specifically came to SEE ME!!!!, huh!! when some (20*2)+ eyes are on you, you will become damn conscious, you cannot be your own and certainly turn stupid with your words and acts.

After waiting for a long the to-be-bride arrived with best possible make up available. I was not even comfortably having her glance due to these (20*2)+ eyes, but to be candid in the last 5 years I have mastered the art of peeping girls, “Hmmm…cool” that was my 1st unexpressed expression when I saw her.

At the final H-hour we both were let to talk or rather exchange few questionnaires.
Out of complete nervousness we greeted each other, I mustered my courage and said “Please don’t be nervous”. She might have said 'look whose talking', if she has sensed my nervousness.

Well, in that short span of 10 mins in which you are suppose to decide your spouse (or ur future MASTER) I ended up asking very dumb questions like what’s your qualification and occupation etc, which I already I knew!. In the last 2 mins she too completed the same formality about asking same Qs to me and TIMES UP!!!!
