Good Bye 2008... 2009 Plz be kind!

I am not sad that 2008 has gone by. This year was the year that i would remember a few years down the line for its spirituality..:) .
It was a year of anxieties calmed by inner peace.. A year of long holidays at home.. a year of buying lots of new stuff.... and accolades for work done..
innumerable trips to kerala... uncertainities .. new workplace.. and today the last day i feel content.. sweet memories.. sad memories.. now all part of my life.. God Bless All!

My first post from my 1st blog

When i moved to the new one i did not want to lose my first post..so jus copied it here for future reference :-).

The First Attempt
I started this blog.. inspired by my dearest friend Pras... She got this idea floating in our foursome group (Me, Pras, Unni, Vinu).. to jot down things about the great fun times that we had.. I named the blog so because i realised that i love being myself.. and It has been fun being me.. Mebe not fun as how others perceive.. but i love spending time with myself..:) and i wudnt want to live anybody else's life.. Not that i am a loner.. but if i am left to my own devices.. i have a whole lot of things to catch up for myself.. There have been ups and downs and i am happy that i have come out stronger.. he he.. that sounds like the real philosophy crap.. watever but itz true.Thats enuf on the BLOG NAME.I ll start my blog mentioning fun times that i had with a very special group.. We were meant to be a group as i wud say destiny conspired to get us together.. Me , Prasanna, Vinu and Vinod..! Each of us completely different people..and i wud say with origins in different geographical locations.. but fun brought us together..:).. Itz been i guess 3 years that we know each other.. and we hit it from the first meeting onwards..! We never did anything big scale.. but anything that we did turned out to be great fun.. and lot of credit would to Unni's truth and dares... It reached a point when we feared the worst.. ;-) It was vinod and pras who were the big planners.. and me and vinu.. just fell into place.. but believe me.. i have gelled so well with very few people.. sure i can count on my fingers..:) excluding the toes.. And guys .. how can we forget FUGA! this is the most talked about topic whenever we are reminiscing about the good old times..! One discovery they made was that i cud dance..:)

K - The one and only!

K is a rare, enigmatic, jovial, inspiring, stylish yet a very humble personality.Such a difficult person to describe.. so mature yet so childish.. so strong yet so vulnerable..so motivating yet such a demotivator at times..so stubborn yet so yielding..such a spendthrift yet a miser at times .. not necessarily with money..;-)

One thing that comes to mind when i think about K is.. K's smile with a teeny-weeny gap between his 2 front teeth.And when i say it makes him look like a dumb-wit, he counters it by saying many famous people have it.. to name one in his own words.. Madonna :)And i think that is just wishful thinking on his part..;-)

K will put even albert einstien to shame with his absent-mindedness..Nothing remains with him for long.. he must have lost zillions(and still counting..) of bike keys, wallets, glares, caps.. and whatever there is to lose..and you seriously cant blame him.. i was there on of one of his losing trips and even i could not salvage the glares.. the guy just cant help losing..It's another story that he got this particular glares back and promptly lost it again..:)And its a good thing he doesnt get attached to such things.. not that he allows enough time to get seriously attached..:) His absent mindedness doesnt stop at just losing stuff.. the list just goes on and on :-)

And i have not seen a more ardent animal lover than K till date.. And i guess Dogs are his favorite. His passion for dogs is truly commendable..He is so sensitive to their feelings that once in a while you just cant help feeling envious of the dog which gets so much affection.:)And dogs seem to sense his love for them .. they always seem to be around him in the hope of getting a delicious tiger biscuit and a nice word as a topping..

K is like an ocean.. from far above.. looks calm.. but can ravage unintentionally, ones that get too close at times.. and at times give them a time of their life..holds feelings close to his heart, never to divulge unless absolutely required... though i personally dont like this trait of his as it tends to give higher stress and strain.. to him as well as others :)A fair and just guy.. but that is a point of perception.. and i believe i am more fair and just than him !

K is a charmer.. though it is difficult to point out one thing that is his charm..may be it is the easy way he talks, makes acquaintances, may be it's his intelligence or maybe its his fun loving heart that first sees the good in others.He would make a good negotiator.. he thinks from everybody's point of view. and thats a talent in itself.. coz many a times, we tend to misunderstand another's point of view..

And K is BIG BAD LOSER at bets.. out of the umpteen bets we have placed.. he would have won only 1 or 2 ..:) and he never keeps his side of the bet when he loses.. but expects me to keep mine when he wins..

Inspite of all his above listed questionable qualities ;-), he is one of the few people i admire and one among the people i like.

This is not the end for sure but thats it for now.. more to come when i feel like it.. :)
