Where am I?

When I came back to office last week, after my short trip home, my supervisor had news for me.

“Ure being shifted to KT office….U’ll have to move out this week itself!”

Wow!!! I din want him to see how relieved I was….KT office!!!! Hardly a minute walk from my apartment [well that is exactly why v decided to take it. Hoping they’d shift us thr]……No more traveling….no more waking up early….I was thrilled!!!

Oh so I forgot to ask him why….”Why is that? all of us are moving out?”

“No u’ve been allotted to a new project!!” (puzzled)

What!!!! I’ve been mapped to a new project? without me being informed? God, I’ve been gone for juz 2 days n look wat happened! why din anyone tell me? Or was it coz my mailbox was full of forwards I mite have missed out such an imp mail?

“Huh!!! Sorry I din know that….I wasn’t informed”

“Din u check ur mails?”

“Well I did….lemme check again….”

And together v went thru d entire mails…..Nope….nothing to be seen…..

“Maybe they’ll inform u today”

Oh yes they did…..within an hour I got the transfer mail n towards d end of d day I got clearance from every department…..Ok am all set to move now…..Hopefully from tomorrow onwards I don’t have to worry about being late for bus :-)

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

The next day…..So I’ve told everyone am moving…..am pretty excited……sad too for leaving all my friends here……

Everyone started noticing d change in my display id….it says KT instead of AMB now [denotes which office I am located]…..queries about my new project n when I got shifted……

“Well I don’t know anything about d project yet….n no I’ve not shifted….am still here….it’s juz that my location’s been changed”

“So when are u moving?”

“Not sure about that….waiting for the mail :-)”

“Good luck!!”

“Thanks”

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

Next day n I still haven’t moved yet

“Where are you now?”

“Am still here at AMB office”

“But your display shows ure at KT”

“Yeah I know!”

“Well start packing”

“mmmmm”

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

Next week

“Not moved yet?”

“No”

Well am still at d same office…..same bay…..using the same machine

Oh n by d way my new supervisor’s on leave….So I can’t be moving unless I get an approval from her…..

So when am I moving? Well that’s tough to answer…..

To conclude am virtually at one place but physically at another….huh!!!!

Now that’s what I call dual existence :-)

Just another day...

Just another day at office…’twas like any other day…I had nothing to do today than going thru d documents that is due to b completed next week….N since am going home day after, I din feel like reading d boring stuff (well boring it wud b since I’d been doing nothing else for d past few days) I felt a lot lonely today, coz both the bays next to me had no movement…Both my friends had taken a week off n was now home…Must be sleeping all day long….Or maybe watching tv or just relaxing…N me? Stuck in office for another few more hours….

Now today was one of those days I really missed a3’s mails…Usually she bombarded all our mailboxes with loads of forwarded mails…It gets annoying at times, when you find so many of them…Rest of the days u wish d frequency wud b a bit high so u could keep urself occupied with d silly stuff…..There have been days when I’ve asked her to fill up my mailbox…..Now since she’s not here my outlook does not have anything to offer :-( Until now I’ve received nothing but a “Calvin” strip from Mr. know-it-all….That guy has been trying to make me like Calvin for too long….I always enjoy that part of our fight…..Hmmmm….not bad though :P

Nothing to do…Nothing to do….I simply refuse to read one more single line from that stupid document…OOPS!!!! That’s why they pay me…..Sorry it’s not stupid :-)

And so I decided to mail Ams…Now that’s what I usually do when I feel bored….I either mail my college friends….Or we just start a hilarious conversation through the communicator….Me, a3,MM n sometimes paappan too….Now that two are missing, it wouldn’t be as usual

Ams hasn’t been mailing me for quite some time now….Neither is she picking up the phone when I call….Hmmm I don’t understand.....How can she be so busy?? All my friend’s been telling me I send them too big mails they don’t have time to read the entire thing n reply back….Well it doesn’t take that much time to type things, does it? Lazy people!!!!

Anyway I asked her if she was still alive. N what a surprise!! She replied….She asked me what I’d bring for her when I come back from home….She wanted halwa n asked me not to open it from the mess hall…I was to bring it up directly to our room….All of a sudden I started remembering my college days….

College wasn’t so hip n happening for me….But I simply enjoyed those days at hostel….Everything was so different then….I remember the times when someone returned back from home n opened d home-made food or sweets or anything at all….All hands wud be on it together…..N it never mattered if one was hungry or not…..Fighting for it was the best part….This was exactly what ams was talking about…Whenever I went home I brought the special halwa of my place….N each time ams wud be d first one to taste it….V’d cut it n save some pieces for us roomies before calling d others….

The long chats during meals….irritating our matron n getting quick pinches from her at times….the roll calls along with matron’s scolding….the way v cud just keep on talking about anything n nothing v talked ever mattered to us…..teasings…..combined study on d eve of exams…..Missing all of it!!!!

Feels to be back in LH now….Just for a day maybe….Just like old times….Away from work….Away from all worries n tensions….Back in my room…..Curled up in my bed as usual……Reading my book n listening to my favourite playlist…..Watching the changing scenes of my screen-saver with ams until someone calls us crazy :-) ……Waiting for repi n TR to call us for lunch……Yes back at 303 where life was just care-free…..

I find myself thinking about all this, even though my eyes are on my computer screen, pretending as usual, to read that document…..Atleast my mind wud be occupied for the remaining 2 hours at office :-) ……

Thanks ams!!!

BORED!!!

Every Friday, post lunch, am in no mood to work....After that delightful meal the cafeteria offers (esp. d sweets) I could think of nothing else other than going home n enjoying the weekend....

Last Friday was just d same.....Planning on which movies to watch.....Where I could go n hang-out.....I wanted my weekend to be nothing but fun.....I even pitied on my friends who had to come to office on Saturday n maybe even Sunday.....But sad there's nothing I could do....And not that I even cared of either (excuse me for being so selfish)

The moment my system clock showed 5:30 I packed up my stuff, made sure I'd send out a "Have a nice weekend" mail to each n everyone I know of n was out of office by sharp 6:00...

Well now what??!! It was too early to go home.....I begged my roomies to go have a cup of our favourite "ginger tea" at the nearby bakery....Now who would have thought the "chaiwala" wouldn't be there.....There was nothing else to do n since everyone else wanted to hit home, that's where we really went....Home!!!!! N so early!!!!! Rats!!!!

My Friday night wasn't turning out to be good at all.....The world cup match was on that would decide India's entry to the "Super eight"......I wasn't really a cricket buff, I literally detested that game (all thanks to big guy...) But as there was nothing else I could possibly be doing, I juz wished I could watch it.....I even made a pact with my sis. She'd be sms-ing d scores after every 5 overs n I'd treat her well for that.....(hmmmm....Am sounding like I eat, drink, breathe, live in cricket......Ohmigod!!!!!) Pity ending to that Friday...

Come morning!!! WOW!!! So what if Friday was a drag, this would be the day I'd blast!!! To start with I had no plans made out until evening....And after much pleading, my friends finally agreed to get out of the house....We wandered here and there, n finally made our way to M. G. Road and the "walking plaza", walked again n having had done something returned home with satisfaction.....

Promise we'll have more fun tomorrow.....I assured myself while getting ready for bed......

Sunday morning.....Woke up real early n got ready for church......My mind had big plans for this day....Right after mass, there'd be a movie......And then......I was yet to find out that this would be d most "boring" day I'd be having ever since I'd moved to Pune.......

Church....hymns......prayers......


And now what?? I asked my friends......


"Let's go home" was the reply.....

Home!!!! Y so!!!???

Well none wants to experiment on the movies out this week.....

Still why home??? Can't we do something???

Like what??

I don't know....Something!!!!

NO!!!

Rats!!!!

I didn't even care to talk to any of them on my way back home....I was toooooooooo "upset"....I've never ever listened to the radio at this volume before!!!! Who sat beside me in the bus??? I don't even remember!!!

I'm home n upset n.....(I don't really have words for what I felt) I complained to amma....She laughed it off....(how rude!!!) I told big guy....He suggested that I find a boy-friend!!! (hummmmphhhh!!!! No comments!!!!)

Now what was I supposed to do???

Sleep??? I couldn't

Finish my book??? I got bored after 5 chapters....(Oh no!!!! Not the book!!! I juz wasn't prepared to spend my weekend at home reading how Andrea was treated by her bitchy boss)

TV??? (A what?? I cursed my roomies for not approving my request to get one ....So sorry gals....)

What else??? No other options!!!!!

Ohmigod!!!! My weekend is a disaster!!!

So much for having "high hopes"!!!! Next weekend I'll have a Plan B, that is, how I could have fun staying home!!!!

Oh n many thanks to M for coming out with me for an evening stroll.....That did cool me off a bit!!!

PS: To my roomies....Gals this is an indirect way of telling you how bored I was.....Please Please Please let's work out something so that this wouldn't happen again!!!!

Happy b'day to me!!!!!

Happy b'day to me.....

happy b'day to me.....

happy b'day... happy b'day...

happy b'day to me.....

Great!!!! Successfully completed one more year being in this world!!!! So that makes me 22 :)

Or shud i say completed 22 n nw am 23.....hmmmm i've never figured out wat 2 say....Ok thn lets stick wid 22 itself!!!

I dunno y bt b'days make me feel juz great...D best part is everyone near n dear calls up 2 wish n u end up hvng a loooooong chat wid them all!!!! wish these b'days come every month!!!! (I knw its nt possible bt thrz no harm in juz wishing)

Well turning 22 is no big deal....it doesn't hv d same feel to it whn u turned 13 n entered ur teens or mayb 18 n told everyone tht u're nw an adult n they shud at any cost treat u as such

Bt today was somehow very special....first of all its my 1st b'day being a professional!!!! well ain't tht great!!!! until nw all my treats wud've been wid d help of my parents....bt today is different....it's my own money!!! I can spend it d way i want to (n considering my case, i'd stick wid mayb a cup of coffee for each of my frndz....wnt tht b juz wonderful)

Whn I was a kid, I remember my parents getting me lots of gifts n inviting all d kids in d neighbourhood for my b'day party.

A little older, I still hd my presents (which was of course less in number) bt no party at home....Things changed at college, whn all my batchmates wud gather around at exactly midnite n u juz wish they'd leave rite after d wishes without gifting u those oooooh so wonderful b'day bumps!!! Bt ure nt a loser after all....u do get to take revenge :)

Bt this was different frm all of it....wishes came in frm all over....My parents, relatives, frndz at college, frndz at work....i din evn hv a moment to spare....Calls started coming in evn before 12....My cell hs nvr been ths busy before!!! :o n besides all tht my roomies who're rite nw my good frndz threw me a wonderful b'day nite.....i cudn't hv wished for more!!!!

Anywayz i did enjoy a lot!!!! hope d same goes for nxt year as well ;)
