Khandani Rajdhani

Yes, I am a hardcore Nov-Veg lover and also feel why many are mad about Vegs but today I found out the reason why many love being Vegetarians.

It was a planned visit to Chamiers road with Deepak Bhaiya but really turned out to be an unforgettable day in my life. It was around lunch time and it was his plan to go to Phoenix Mall, Velachery and have lunch at "Khandani Rajdhani". To be honest I was not so keen being a Non-Veg lover but when with Deepak Bhaiya its always 100% Veg bcos he being an Vegetarian.

So finally went and opted for Thalli, my word the real treat of Food started from there.....
The plates were filled with many side dishes and some kind of tasty starters....The dishes in the pic were almost the same.

Sorry I don't remember all the dishes name..All were Rajasthani name, there was some kind of Juicy starter with Paneer kind of stuff soaked, then Sambar Vadai kind of stuff with Ghee toppings, then some Bonda.

Main dish was Rumali Roti with Ghee toppings....I was just grabbing it on full with mouth watering side dishes and didn't mind to stop....

In between sweets were going on its wish......Real tastier was Ras Malai my word, ate almost 6 pieces on will. Yes I repeat I ate 6 and Bhaiya too ate 6. We ended with rice with curd and bhaiya opted for Hot Dhal.

I was just waiting for the hand wash to come bcos the servers were just filling our plates on their will, I was asking what is the signal for Hand wash since they have a practice of signalling like 1, 2 etc. for dishes and for Hand washes....My Goodness....all foods were just Mouth watering and really tasty to the core. I bet you couldn't stop if you start eating.

Never had experienced such a wonderful service...At last we ended with a Big Drum beat signalling the food was awesome :) and they too greeted in their language like in the movie 300 - Aaahoo :P

The end of tale is that we both became like Big hippo with stomach full and unable to move :(
We were just moving inch by inch to get down to Parking floor to reach our car.

Unfortunately I had to drive the car to the destination and Bhaiya pushed back the seat and relaxed.

Really I regretted today that wish I was only a Vegetarian.......


p.s.: All you ppl, want to eat heavy Veg don't miss out to eat at Khandani Rajdhani....You will miss out a real treat and fun of food....and Healthy ones too :)

Say it in English

Yesterday after a long time had a chance to board in Chennai EMU from West Mambalam to Tambaram :)
I got a seat luckily because it was not peak hours of Weekend shopping. I noticed an old and poor man sleeping on the Train floor. He was very stale and had a long beard. He did not had any dress on him but a long bedsheet which he wrapped on himself.

The most hilarious incident when the station alighted at Pallavaram. The old man crawled across and went to the edge of the train door and halted there. A young chap from who was sitting opposite to me stood and about to get down.

The old man just looked up to that guy and asked "Time?". The young guy replied "Naaley Mukkaaal" - 4.45 in Tamil. "

The old man replied back "Say it in English". It took quite all the people who were noticing that incident to surprise. I was just taken aback. I mean that guy replied back with a little hesitation clearly "Four Forty Five". The old man listened and turned back and started on seeing outside. Such people if guided by right source could become achievable people in the society.

I don't know how many of us thought about such old people?

Are they Educated people who are left wandered on streets? or got Mentally Ill ? or are they some kind of Terrorist ?

Whoever could they be? It was a completely hilarious experience which I gone through yesterday.

Just prayed to God for a few seconds, God just take care of such people.....

I managed to capture that old man's pic, you people just see him and decide how could such a man speak clear English and make your own judgements......

He has Made Me Glad :)

He has Made Me Glad......


I am on the edge of this month and of this new year 2014 :) 

Right from the 1st day of Jan 2014, God has been leading me all through the roller-coaster rides which I have been facing in my Professional Life. It was a tough month, had some sleepless nights with loads of pressure. Learnt a lot of lessons, got backfires, faced Music from the Client and loads of late night calls. 


Only my buddy David knows each & every struggle I went through but I am glad at the blink of the next day morning always had a Hope and a Trust that He will be with me. 

It was a Fruitful, Challenging yet promising January for the months of come :) 

The month ran like a whisper with Pongal Holidays occupying almost a week......:) 

Hope you all had a wonderful Jan, wishing you all a Happy February 2014 :) 


I repeat He has Made Me Glad :) 

CASPER'S 1st Birthday

Howdy Buddies,

Yeah you saw the title right....My Casper is now 1 year old. It was an year back when she came into my life. She has given me wonderful experience over the last 365 days.....

1st want to #ThankGod for the wonderful gift which He gave it to me :)

Still remember it was on Jan 23rd 2013, I took and introduced her to my Mom and Dad :) My Young bro was the most happiest person on Earth to see his Bro's owning a Chevy Beat :)

Later only on Jan 27th only took her 1st time to Church. #ThankedGod and from next day took it to office. Still that day flashes in my Mind :) Was so careful and used to drive very slow and with mild pace.

It was in the month of Feb, took her to Nellore my 1st Long trip where she crossed 1000kms.

From that time she has just moved on with me and time ran like a Whisper. Later there were no big marathons but almost took me almost 120kms on average daily and all across the Industrial areas of Chennai and its outskirts :0

Casper in the due course of last one year got hurts and wounds though not big ones but small ones. Always feel whenever she gets even scratches :( My Chitappa told me, don't worry Joe all are scratchless and brand new only till it is in the showroom. Once its comes out don't bother about the scratches.

Since there was no heavy rains in Chennai last year she didn't experience the worst Chennai roads during the rainy seasons but surely experienced the Heat of Chennai.

On August 14th 2013, she went past 10,000 kms :) Felt happy that she had gone past a Good kms.

So far she has gone for 3 services and is in semma condition to give almost 23 Kms / Litre of Diesel with A/C/

She celebrated her 1st Christmas only this year. She got a wax and her Shampoo wash before her Christmas.

Almost she has become a part of my Family now because all my family including Chithi family 6 members comfortably can travel for a short distances around Chennai.

This March we have planned for a long trip down to Tirunelveli. #GodWilling will make it.

#PraiseTheLord once again for the wonderful gift which He gave it to me when it really needed.

Will continue more in the 2nd Birthday celebration with more exciting rides and zooms to share...

"My Caster after a Shampoo Wash "

"2 `J `0 `O `1 `E `3 " :) :D ;) B-)

2014 – A Year of Trust & Hope in God!!

Another year of 2013, passed away like a jiffy leaving behinds loads of Memories, Fun, Enjoyment, Success, Failures, Hard Lessons, New Life, New Relationships & Frnds to lead a hopeful 2014. Time to retrospect 2013.

2013 a year I would summarize as a year which has been a base of a wonderful 2014. It gave me a base of a strong Spiritual life which I am going to continue in 2014 in a big way. I want to Thank the Lord Almighty for giving me a blessed 2013 and now a wonderful start to 2014.

Family and Relatives:

It was a healthy year for my parents. Both Mom and Dad were blessed and I Thank God for giving them another year. Visited twice Nellai last year, in the month of May and in July. It was as always a wonderful and cherish able year time spent with family members. Got a chance to visit Manimuthar falls with family kutties.

Friends & Hangouts:

This year was a wonderful year with respect to Friends and Hangouts. May 26^th 2013, we were at Nellai for our bestie marriage Pushpa. Since all schoolies gathered, we got a chance to make a Trek. It was to Ulakai aruvi falls were we guys went had a fun trek. Following in July went to another schoolie’s marriage Sam. Year ended with another memorable trip to Cochin. It was a greeny and a trip to freeze.

Then came the big final bash of the year – College Life Relived on Aug 4^th 2013. Yet another time, with God’s grace organized and relived college life with all at Jade Resorts.

It was the second consecutive year which we made it for the Get-Together. This 2014 is gonna be the Hat-Trick if we succeed it through.

Apart from that, Get together with PG friends too got few occasions. After a long time got a chance to meet Vijay and Vivek on the eve of Diwali. Later went to Gobichettipalayam for Jeff’s marriage with Thilak and Roshan.

As on regular note met Pradeep and Dinesh may be 5 times for dinner’s and hangouts.

This year, apart from all these moved often with DJ bhaiya for sudden dinner trips and also with Anand Sir for quick dinners.

Social Networking:

Coming to Social Networking, spent loads of time in FB. My word, if I turn back and see I was addicted to it. I was seriously thinking on it to reduce in 2013 to some extent. I succeeded in it too and looking forward to reduce further.

This year hadn’t been a wonderful on Blogging but God willing will be writing more and more both on personal and spiritual blog.

Last, don’t want to forget to share about bro David. He is a real God’s gift to me. In 2013, among all my friends with him have spent the most of the evening. We both shared & sharing the stage in both the Youth Prayer Meetings and also in ACA Church for Sunday Services.

Spiritual Life:

2012 was the year which ignited Spiritual life within me. God’s will or plan whatever you call it as during my prayers something within me ignited to start a new Blog – Pursuit ofChristianity. It has kicked off well with very good response & comments.

Later this year, God gave me wonderful platform in many ways to play Guitar. Selva anna’s Friday prayer meetings lead me to on stage programs. Last year was part of Youth Prayer Meeting at two churches. In March 2013, myself and my bro David started playing in Wednesday in ACA Selaiyur church. Later that church developed and from April Sunday services started. Since then, we both are part of regular music leaders in ACA Church. It was a real blessed year. Really Thank God many times for giving me this opportunity.  

One of the biggest Life event was my CEZA - The Casper. Yes my Chevy Beat. It was a God's gift purely. So far have touched 17,000 odd kms in one year. He saved me through all the rough roads of Chennai and Highways. Thank God. 

Personal Life:

Still a Proud Single. But 2014 I am sure it is not gonna be the same. God willing soon will get my Life Partern. My parents has started to look for girl and before 2015 New Year will be changing my status from Single to Engaged / Married in FB.

Professional Life:

Something which 2012 brought a turnaround in a bigger way in my life is my Professional Life. From Business Head I was Partner at Chrisna Solutions. Later in 2013, got into Akash Ganga and Medilife.

Nut Shell:

Put it in a Short Note, 2012 was a beginning of Good things and now 2013 was a beginning of Brilliant things under His light and Blessings. I know God Lord has Life changing, superb and wonderful good plans for me in 2014, I know what I have to do – TRUST IN LORD, WITH ALL MY HEART, ALL MY SOUL AND ALL MY MIND.

2014 I am just waiting for Life changing things to happen with His blessings and plan.

I owe, thank and love you all folks for all your wishes, comments, tags, love and support which you folks showed in 2013, expecting the same in the upcoming 2014.

Sorry folks, if I have hurted you anytime with my words and behaviour. I always cherish all your relationship and friendship.

Happy New Year 2014.

Time with School Buddies always the best :) :D

It's always special if I spend quality time with friends, and on top of that if it is my School Buddies - The Dukes of Bell it is always the very special.

A quite roller coaster start it was, were late according to our plan but managed to squeeze through all the plans and boarded our train. Neva wanna share on blog regarding that comedy moments.

Our mate, Sunil boarded the train from Egmore and rest from Tambaram. A/C Coach and Side lower what else do you expect :P Long and late night chat was the most nostalgic.

Next day was the big day for our frnd Sam. It was a fun filled evening, with a good dinner though not authentic Christian marriage dinner we enjoyed to the core.

The next day was a special, went along a cooll drive with my buddy Ramesh to Kovilpatti. We both shared a a lot of things between us. May be last time we both shared lot was during our School days.

Rest what, return from Nellai to Chennai in Kanyakumari with Sunil and Abi alone. Again Side Upper berth, and yet again late night chit-o-chats :)

Few things couldn't be explained in detail but this post will bring loads of memories flashing in my buddies mind :)

Love u all my School mates :)

College Life Re-Lived ‘ 2013

Another year flashed after the wonderful event ---- http://djoephilip.blogspot.in/2012/08/college-life-re-lived.html

The venue, agenda, plans and organizing works began quite early from the month of June. The aim of this time g2g was that the message should spread to all the batch mates who are in the contact circle unlike last year were there was a shortage of time to spread the news to all. I managed to do it to larger extent.

The big day:

This year the feel and over all g2g had a completely different outlook and theme as compared to last year because more couples made it to the function as compared to last year. So we had to be quite little more decent.

The event kicked off with a welcome drink and then assembling. This time it was Arthi who took the initiative to arrange for cake, my mark my words it was an interesting and theme oriented cake. Tasty too ;)

The celebration of cake cutting never end without cake facials, yes we did it with No Mercy to all. It was very interesting coz’ all the girls who were in full-makes and all were wiped off cos’ of our cake facials.

Following which we all went to banquet hall, and we took our group picture. We had quite some time in conducting few games before we went for lunch. Following which it was Skakthi akka who kept us busy with her beautiful songs.

The time was ticking 4 and we were at Beach. It was a pleasant, calm and well maintained beach. We had real galla time with them.

Now you all guessing that event got over uh ?

There was a stoppage and waiting period may be till 6.30 for something special. It was a well planned & executed plan.

Here is what all they waited for:

My friend Sathya, told that all were literary exhausted but when we gave this memento all felt that the wait was worth. I hope the same from others, and also guess all were happy in having that.

Summary of the day was kinda so nostalgic, cos’ this year few new faces came to the party. It was so pleasure in meeting them after may be 9 years. Really I would say priceless moments of Life. I guess everyone were so happy seeing each other and re-kindling their college life. 

I want to use this platform to thank my buddies, Pradeep, Dinesh, Sathya, Arthi and others who supported me in each and every move to organize and made this event yet another time a grand success. It was my pleasure to organize one more year and also Thank God for guiding me in all tough situations.

We want to thank each one those who respected us and made it for the event, we owe our Friendship to you all. 

Love u All Friends……You are my Life 

Yaaayy I re-lived another time a day of College Life because of you all :) 

I have shared few nostalgic memories in FB so enjoy it !!!

P.S.: Again wanna mention, It’s not like that I am angry or upset with those who didn’t make it for the event. Few couldn’t make it cos’ of genuine reasons but others didn’t make it cos they were not interested. I would like to end by saying such moments in Life are Once in a Life Time Opportunity, when chance to get an enjoyment is there we should grab it and shouldn’t have hard feelings later on.

We shouldn’t show up our Ego’s, Past revenges and give away Silly & Childish reasons. 

I am just expecting atleast seeing all the pictures more ppl will pump in for the next meet.

TREK DE' ULAKAI ARUVI

It took 6 months to post 2^nd post of the year but I guess wait was good and now Life gave me an awesome chance to post now.  Sorry for the long post yet again but I feel you guys will enjoy.

This year Nellai trip was Memorable but unusual, thinking why ? Just cos’ this year didn’t spent much time with family but guess what wid my School Buddies.

It was a pucca pre-planned trip cos’ we all assembled on occasion of our Bestie’s Marriage Pushpakumar @ Nellai J . 24^th Night we folks started in a Bus & made it memorable. Last Seat Sleeper and 3 of our guys huddled inside & watched Movie + IPL Match.

Now 26^th the BIG DAY – TREK DE ULAKAI ARUVI :)

Our buddy Abilash had just one thing in mind that our trip should be somewhere wr only few has unleashed & obviously adventurous & new. So the destination was Ulakai Aruvi, a kinda dense forest in Nagercoil.

Guys huddled for the trek – Abilash, Ramesh, Navanee, Sunil, Syed & Me ;)  missed out 3 more guys :(

Since it was a reserved area we got prior permissions and had two members to escort us. They were local ppl and were aware of the dangers & paths very well. We started say something around 10 in the morning. As always started with enthu and energetic but hardly we would have trekked around 15 min, it was time was a Strategic Time Out :P . We stressed out only walking through the mud path but weren’t aware of the herculean path. Just as we trekked another 10 min, the path was full of rocks and rocks. My word I was wearing Jeans and it got wet wih sweat. We were stressed out & drank all the waters we had.

Path became rough & rough, and mark my words it was a beginner’s trek :P it was that time I realized that we guys are weak by living in the city life with no real stamina in us. Particularly me, I was quite over stressed out and was trekking the last and was keeping all the steps slowly and slowly with no big efforts.

Almost trekked for an hour, then came the small twist, there were two paths diverging. One was straight the path we walked & other was towards right. Myself and Ramesh had in our mind that we shud take straight and Sunil & Abi had in their mind that we shud take right. Highlight was we guys didn’t took the phone numbers of escorts cos’ we asked them to walk through long back.

It was kinda path walking around the hill, we had doubts but since we all were intact and walked through our instincts by walking right. Then came an awesome breath taking view point. We were almost 4000 ft. above the ground level and were enjoying the Nature’s bounty. Our last liquid left out was the Big Sprite bottle & it got empty in seconds. We guys had hope that we are going in right direction and at last we were right. Thanks to Google cos’ we had some glimpses of the final spot before we went so once reached the final hurdle we were sure. All got a big sigh when we saw our escorts who were waiting for us.

Next what, it was time to jump into the falls. Our escorts started to cook – Curry and rice. It was a small falls wr only one can get into it and take the shower. We went turn wise & were enjoying the cool waters. The climate so awesome and mild that we sat there & started our gossips. As on cards, were pulling our leg & reminding our school memories. It was one such priceless moment of 80 odd minutes which we will never forget. We guys thought okay lets finish but there was another twist, when one of the escort that there is one more spot above it. We had to climb on the rocks almost 200 ft. above and when we saw a small pool with falls. It was another one such Nature’s gift which we guys were gifted to witness. We didn’t carry any cam up there else would have taken a lot pics. The rocky path has something interesting the Dung of Elephant & we realized it’s really a risky area.

All came down and it was time for a Luncheon. It was one such mouth watery Chicken curry with Plain rice with Rasam & Egg. All sat together & relished our food. Later it was time to take some candid shots. We weren’t running short of time but still made our minds let’s trek down. That’s when myself, Abilash and Syed really trekked down slowly and were enjoying 360’ degree nature.

Successfully reached down with no harms and wounds, all Thanks to God Almighty for it. Visited Sunil’s home and came to Nellai before it was dark.

Same night, huddled up again at Ramesh’s home for IPL Finals. Next day was the Marriage and it was the end of our one of the most memorable trip we guys had ever had.

I would say, it was once in a life time opportunity to witness such beauty again into the nature.

"2 `J `0 `O `1 `E `2 " :) :D ;) B-)

2013 – Let the Game begin!!!!

Another Leap year passed away like a flash but leaving behinds loads of Memories, Fun, Enjoyment, Success, Failures, Hard Lessons, New Life, New Relationships & Frnds. Time to retrospect 2012.

2012, an year which Mayans predicted the end of the World. But Lord God Heavenly God gave me yet another year. He lead me and protected me all throughout the year.

As every year beginning 2012 too started at Church and presence of God.

Family and Relatives:

It was a healthy year for my parents. Both Mom and Dad were blessed and I Thank God for giving them another year. Apart from that, last May had a good chance to visit Nellai and had a fantabulous Trip. Asking how? – Family Luncheon near banks of rivers, Road trips, Cooling bathe at Tamirabarani River etc. 

Then another wonderful nostalgic trip to Mahabalipuram. Wow, it was one good memorable trip. It was my dad’s wish to go out to Mahabs not to look out the ancient sculptures but to have good outing with family and to get a break from busy life.

Ninju Chithi, visited India mid December . Unlike last year didn’t missed out to meet her and my dear kutti sister Cadence.

Year of course ended, with Xmas and New Year with Family Spl Feasts.

Education:

Hmmm, just went like a Jiffy. June 2012 appeared for my examinations for PGDM. After almost 3 weeks of last min hard preparations of 10 books in total, somehow managed to write and clear with 88%. Thanks to Lord Almighty who gave me all support and blessings for another degree.

Friends & Hangouts:

January 24^th 2012, was an year which I would frame because I met my dear good friend Vishal after 8 years & had a chance to see Mumbai for the 1^st time.

Then came the big final bash of the year – College Life Relived on Aug 5^th 2012. I got the chance to organize and relive college life with all my friends at Green coconut resort. Wow one day I would cherish all throughout my life for ever. I was back to old fun loving, cheerful and Naughty Joe. We have proposed that we will meet this year too if God willing we will surely meet.

Apart from that, Get together with School friends at Zaitoon. Then a good rainy night dinner with my old roomies and as every year goes by hangout with my dear buddies Pradeep and Dinesh at BBQ, Seasons and local Parotta stalls and last chota chota Pani Poori hangouts with DJ bhaiya were all part of 2012 hangouts.

What else, yup happy wedding occasions for my buddies – Alex & Noorul. 1^st one 12/12/12 of Alex & Nancy. Man it was a special evening, awesome chance to meet all MBA folks and incredible dinner. Next one was Noorul on Dec 27^th, it was a one day and short hangout at Nellai. One of my close friend and sister, Archana too got married this year.

Aug15th 2012 was yet another nostalgia. Courtesy to my friend Naren, who invited me to Bharath college for the Flag hoist at my very dear UG College. It was a funfilled day.

Nothing much with respect to long or short trips unlike 2011. Have quite number of plans at 2013, God willing should happen.

One of my close Bro KK, also got married at Bangalore on Oct end. It was a wonderful chilling trip.

Coming to Social Networking, spent loads of time in FB. My word, if I turn back and see I was addicted to it. I am seriously thinking on it to reduce in 2013 to some extent. 95 friends were added this year but at the same time knocked off few bad ones too.

Gadgets:

One gadget which changed my Life. Yes my Foxy – Mighty Semi SLR. Apart from that no new gadgets last 2012.

Spiritual Life:

2012 which ignited Spiritual life within me. God’s will or plan whatever you call it as during my prayers something within me ignited to start a new Blog – Pursuit ofChristianity. It has kicked off well with very good response & comments.

Later the year, my dream to play Guitar for God in the name of Christ happened. Thanks to my Mentor Selva Johnny sir who gave me the opportunity every Friday at his Prayer Meeting. A big concert is being planned this Jan 2013, praying hard that it should happen.

Hobbies and Interest:

No doubt which I brought to everyone’s notice. “My Life though Lenses” album is quite known to every FB friend of mine. Photography was neva on my pages until I got Foxy came into my hands. I don’t call myself as a photographer or a professional but God has given me some blessings to capture some awesome pictures and I am doing it so. Thanks again to God.

Personal Life:

2012, was not like 2011. Learnt lesson in 2011 gave me a peaceful life. Proud Single yet. Remember Feb 2012, after a Shocker statement from my dad posted that I will be looking for a Girl but honestly neva attempted to do it so. I know God has some good plans for me so I am just awaiting it happen so.

Professional Life:

Something which 2012 brought a turnaround in a bigger way in my life is my Professional Life. From Business Head I am now a Partner at Chrisna Solutions. Something which a first generation Entrepreneur will always cherish. Had very depressing moments but as the year ended it has given a new hope and new Hope and confidence in 2013.

Social Cause:

It was dream of our family, to do something for our society and uplifting them in particular for Physically Challenged people. Dev. Educational & Social Trust was founded on June 2012. I am happy to be part of it as one of the Trustee.

Nut Shell:

Put it in a Short Note, 2012 was a beginning of Good things. I am quite happy but the thirst is not quenched. I know God Lord has good plans for me in 2013, I know what I have to do – Simple Live the Life and not just Exist in this world. Code word which I got from God, via my Pastor on Jan 1^st Midnight mass. I will post in detail later on ma other blog.

2013 I am just waiting for loads of good things to happen with His blessings and plan.

I owe, thank and love you all folks for all your wishes, comments, tags, love and support which you folks showed in 2012, expecting the same in the upcoming 2013.

Sorry folks, if I have hurted you anytime with my words and behaviour. I always cherish all your relationship and friendship.

Happy New Year 2013.

Independence Day 15th August 2012

I-Day - Aug 15th 2012 - One of my nostalgic day :) 
It all happened just cos of my buddy Naren !!

Last 8 yrs I am in constant touch with Bharath University but neva have attended I- Day celebration. But this year got that oppotunity :) 

It was a bright sunny day & with fresh morn breeze, I went to college. All NCC Cadre were ready for the Go. NCC Head - Mr.Udaya Kumar and my buddies organized the whole event very well and were ready for the go. 

We all started by Honouring our National Flag by putting flowers to it. 

Like all Chief Guest our VC was late for the function. As soon as he came, Flag Hoisting and followed by March Past and Flag pinning. Man it was a matter of just 20 min but it was an epic and a true Nostalgia :) 

The day was more nostalgic mainly cos this happened in Bharath University. 
Man 8 years of bondage with Bharath Univ is just growing every year with some new developments. 

After that we guys were on for some photoshoots and Breakfast. 


Then came the last event --- Final Photoshoot. Really it was an honour for me when I sat with all the NCC group taking the front row in Chair :)  

It was real nostalgic moments, a pride moment in my very own college and with ma fellow mates. 

I have shared all the pictures in FB do watch it :) 

Once again Thnx to ma frnd Naren who made it happen this day a real Memorable one. 

College Life Re-Lived :)

Dedicate this post to all my Bharath Biotech Buddies 04’ to 08’ Batch 

August 5^th 2012 - A day to be freezed !!

A spark ignited in the minds of Dhilip, Arthi and Myself to have a get-together ! To be honest we planned to just assemble in Vandaloor Zoo and then disperse. We started inviting all our Department mates. We expected hardly 10-12 ppl. But when it crossed 20 we thought no use in keeping Zoo, so decided to shift the focus to a Hall, but later on when it came to 30+ we shifted out pointer to Resort. After so many discussions, we decided to go for Green Coconut Resort. 

Uff, organizing at the onset was a tough task but when I saw the entire count mind got settled J I was really honored to host such a wonderful event for the sake of Friendship and wonderful friends. Success of this event doesn’t goes to ME but to all the people who came and made this event a grand success and has set a beginning for good things in future.

The Event started with a great Cake cutting celebration, debate was who will cut the cake…lol :P It was Pradeep who took a heap of cake in a spoon and everyone followed it. How come cake eating will be finished without Cake facials, so it was fulfilled with the right spirit. Really enjoyed, when my friends Arthi and Bharathi chased me around to counter attack my facials.

Followed by that was See-Saw, a new Olympic game was introduced that day ;)

Then was our Dance and Song session, myself and Samar were awarded the best Dancers for our special step. 

After all this fun was Luncheon time…..

Time was ticking 3, time was running fast then all went to Swimming pool just to wet our legs. Meanwhile myself and Ransingh went to fill water in balloon for the next game, which eventually didn’t last long for more time. Fun time continued with Bashnig Musical Chair. 

We were all set for a Photoshoot when rained drizzled heavily, but the HIGHLIGHT of the day happened that time, it was Tug Of War game…rains were heavy , but suddenly few guys started the game and all joined…..My word whole resort managers and care takers came out to watch our game….it lasted for hardly 1 min but it was damn damn memorable one…even now if I remember it brings me a big smile. 

Then came the final Photoshoop up ! We all took our oath to meet up for sure next year same 1^st Sunday of August 2013 and make it Large.

The final touch was given by our Chief Guest, Ransingh who did a special performance and earned Rs.3 

It was a wonderful end, when we shouted – HIP HIP HURRAY edifying our own Batch 

We were proud of our Department folks who made it for the function.

It was nice experience personally for me, cos to few I haven’t interacted much in my college days, but on that day it was a nice platform to play around and prank and have fun. We were enjoying as if we knew each other very well…….

There was No Ego, No Previous bad memories, No revenge……this event brought back our College Life within each one of us……though it has been 4 years since most of them have completed their college life and living a Corporate Life….

The day turned out to be a real memorable also because it was celebrated on the same week when joined our college on Aug 2^nd 2004 and also because it was a Friendship Day. 

What more could you ask for, when the day was spent with the right people. Each frames of the event I am sure are still running in minds of all the 25 odd ppl. It will bring a big smile whenever we check out the photos and videos or sometimes by memories….

I want to thank each one those who respected me and made it for the event, I owe my Friendship to them. 

Love u All Friends……You are my Life 

Yaaayy I re-lived a day of College Life because of you all :) 

I have shared half of the clicks in FB so enjoy it !!!

 

P.S.: It’s not like that I am angry or upset with those who didn’t make it for the event, few friends of mine like Dhilip, Aneesh etc. couldn’t make it due of genuine reasons but few others didn’t make it cos they were not interested. I would like to end by saying such moments in Life are Once in a Life Time Opportunity, when chance to get an enjoyment is there we should grab it and shouldn’t have hard feelings later on. We shouldn’t show up our Ego’s, Past revenges and give away Silly & Childish reasons. 

I am just expecting atleast seeing all the pictures more ppl will pump in for the next meet.
