I met a guy today

Here's the story...
Last Thursday In response of my matrimonial ad we got a mail asking for BHP (if you dont know..it is - Bio data, horoschope and photograph)...a father of a guy who lives in Ahmedabad...my sis sent my BHP same day to them
Friday..got a call we liked the profile and wud like to proceed futher, they also shared guys BHP.
they also shared his cell no so that I can talk to him...so folks also gave them my cell no
Guy ..hm average looking but highly educated and well settled earning 7 figure salary.
Then sat...my cell rang...it was Priyank (Yes his name is Priyank)
talked for about 20 mins..asking hobbies, dislikes, work bla bla...he said lets meet i said OK
Guy over the phone sounded very impressive....good voice,impeccable english...looked like well educated
Sun...he called again and was in a mood to chat again for long but cut short the conversation by fixing a time for monday 6 pm..ok Monday 6 PM...Uniqafe
My folks were highly enthu about it
Finally time came and I reached 20 mins late....bacause my cab broke on the way..called him and he said no issues like a gentleman
Reached the cafe and saw him and chatted face to face ....and i felt..NO NO he is not a kind of hubby I am looking for
Ok now what made me feel so ----average looking guy but very thin and short (didnot look that thin and short in photograph) realised this when both of us stood up to get tea for ourselves. OMG - huge difference am healthy and was looking much taller ...just imagine
But that's not the main factor...he asked about my career plan and I told him I am career oriented girl and plan to start my own company one day.
here the story takes turn suddenly...a guy who was saying he doesnot mind his wife working suddenly said it is not easy to run a company especially for woman...u know ghar hota hai use dekhna hota hain n etc etc
and gals I was sure....that he is not the one I am looking for.
Ok BTW guy works and lives in Gurgaon only which was another factor I agreed for meeting up :-)

Finally...I am still single and in search for Mr right.

Good girl sunday

my Sunday was good girl Sunday as i spent it with my mum & dad ..good fun !! Day started late and then i went for a head message with my dad . O ho amazing fun it was very relaxing . Then was out randomly taking them from one place to the other . It is daughters day today so took full advantage of it he he he . It's amazing how much i am learning about of parents at this age .....i like it .
They are amazing , i wonder if i will be able to love my kids so unconditionally ............i guess not if they are anything like me i would get mighty irritated :D

Rock On

Hey watched this movie last sunday just forgot talking about it
I loved it....

If you are not living on the edge,you are wasting too much space

Well me looking for work , got some need more . last three months have taught me so much and i have learnt and interacted with so many people that's its amazing. It's amazing how motivated we all are when need be. We give ourselves less credit ....i thought i would crack up and giveup BUT i have this strong feeling that i will make it.
Moral of my story : If you are not living on the edge,you are wasting too much space! As of today i don't regret my decision. Tomorrow is another day !

MY YOGA was amazing today !

To make something special you just have to believe it's special!!!!!!!

meri kahani

Guys...my mom dad have seriously started hunting (sorry to use this word) suitable match for me.....lets see what's store in for me

Savy- my case is different ..after serious head count reduction exercise we are now into serious hiring...so basically we suddenly need 10 10 people more in each team. I think somebody in my office knows how to get business for recruitment consultants...do I need to xplain who is this somebody???? yes yes....u know it but no prizes for right answer!!

And also suddenly sales focus company is changed to customer focus company and we will be running customer focus campaign next month - "customer means the world to us"

Well!! I liked your idea Savy:-)

Chalo cu guys later

Mons aap phir gayab ho gaye?

Prachi- where r u dear?

Anshu - aap kahan ho?

pls likho guys ....

Compelled to Appreciate the story

Murder / Suicide... A very interesting case...At the 1994 annual awards dinner given for Forensic Science, AAFS President Dr Don Harper Mills astounded his audience with the legal complications of a bizarre death. Here is the Case:On March 23, 1994 the medical examiner viewed the body of Ronald Opus and concluded that he died from a shotgun wound to the head. Mr. Opus had jumped from the top of a ten-story building intending to commit suicide. He left a note to the effect indicating his despondency .As he fell past the ninth floor his life was interrupted by a shotgun blast passing through a window, which killed him instantly.Neither the shooter nor the deceased was aware that a safety net had been installed just below the eighth floor level to protect some building workers and that Ronald Opus would not have been able to complete his suicide the way he had planned."Ordinarily," Dr Mills continued, "A person, who sets out to commit suicide and ultimately succeeds, even though the mechanism might not be what he intended, is still defined as committing suicide." That Mr. Opus was shot on the way to certain death, but probably would not have been successful because of the safety net, caused the medical examiner to feel that he had a homicide on his hands. In the room on the ninth floor, where the shotgun blast emanated, was occupied by an elderly man and his wife. They were arguing vigorously and he was threatening her with a shotgun. The man was so upset that when he pulled the trigger he completely missed his wife and the pellets went through the window striking Mr. Opus. When one intends to kill subject "A" but kills subject "B" in the attempt, one is guilty of the murder of subject "B".When confronted with the murder charge the old man and his wife were both adamant and both said that they thought the shotgun was unloaded. The old man said it was a long-standing habit to threaten his wife with the unloaded shotgun. He had no intention to murder her. Therefore the killing of Mr. Opus appeared to be an accident; that is, if the gun had been accidentally loaded. The continuing investigation turned up a witness who saw the old couple's son loading the shotgun about six weeks prior to the fatal accident.It transpired that the old lady had cut off her son's financial support and the son, knowing the propensity of his father to use the shotgun threateningly, loaded the gun with the expectation that his father would shoot his mother.Since the loader of the gun was aware of this, he was guilty of the murder even though he didn't actually pull the trigger. The case now becomes one of murder on the part of the son for the death of Ronald Opus.Now comes the exquisite twist. Further investigation revealed hat the son was, in fact, Ronald Opus. He had become increasingly despondent over the failure of his attempt to engineer his mother's murder. This led him to jump off the ten-story building on March 23rd, only to be killed by a shotgun blast passing through the ninth story window. The son had actually Murdered himself, so the medical examiner closed the case as a suicide.

Cough and Cold but Winters you are WELCOME

Have a really bad cold since Monday (he he kaam ke naam par apney aap bimaar pad jati hoon)
anyways have been going to work like a good faithful employee helping my company face the financial difficulties it is going through.
You see everybody talks about headcount reduction and I have to share my bright ideas about having detachable heads so that next day everyday can come to work with no head ...you get the drift, right.
Aactually , why can we not have part time employment in India I would be the first to detach my head :)
Still searching for a better way at spending my working hours and not being very successful.
But I have faith n hope n u guys (who r equally depressed)
sorry to see you here but am glad we are all in it.

Hello

Good to hear from you Mons
First two days of the week were fine but slow
third day is also slow//nothing exciting

Also..checking out the venue

I am excited on my bro's engagement///what should I wear guys? lehnga or Saree?

Meeting

hey..I think I have my "writing" rights back...
it was super meeting you all last evening..we must meet more often...I am gonna organize the play this week..@ epicenter.

I just read this...and loved it too - MUST READ

PARENTS ARE PRECIOUS!!

> This was narrated by an IAF pilot at

> My parent s left for our native place on Thursday and we went to the

> In spite of
> being asked to book tickets by train, I got them tickets on Jet

> to see that I had booked them by air. The excitement was very apparent
> on his face, waiting for the time of travel. Just like a school boy,
> he was preparing himself on that day and we all went to the airport,
> right from using the trolley for his luggage, the baggage check-in and
> asking for a window seat and waiting restlessly for the security
> check-in to happen. He was thoroughly enjoying himself and I, too, was
> overcome with joy watching him experience all these things.
>
> As they were about to go in for the security check-in, he walked up to
> me with tears in his eyes and thanked me. He became very emotional and
> it was not as if I had done something great but the fact that this
> meant a great deal to him. When he said thanks, I told him there was
> no need to thank me.
> But later, thinking about the entire incident, I looked back at my
> life.. As a child, how many dreams our parents have made come true.
> Without
> understanding the financial situation, we ask for cricket bats,
> dresses, toys, outings, etc. Irrespective of their affordability, they
> have catered to all our needs. Did we ever think about the sacrifices
> they had to make to accommodate many of our wishes? Did we ever say
> thanks for all that they have done for us? Same way, today when it
> comes to our children, we always think that we should put them in a
> good school. Regardless of the amount of donation, we will ensure that
> we will have t give the child the best, theme parks, toys, etc. But we
> tend to forget that our parents have sacrificed a lot for our sake to
> see us happy, so it is our responsibility to ensure that their dreams
> are realized and what they failed to see when they were young.
> It is our responsibility to ensure that they experience all those and
> their life is complete.
>
> Many times, when my parents had asked me some questions, I have

> Rather than my dad saying thank you to me, I would want to say sorry
> for making him wait so long for this small dream. I do realize how
> much he has sacrificed for my sake and I will do my best to give the

>
> Just because they are old does not mean that they will have to give up

Where are u Mons?

Uff ye meetings

ever wonder why do we do meetings

what do we get out of it??/ and whole day goes in meeting!!!

you guys have guessed it right...I spent whole day in various meetings but i am fine

Lovely weather these days ..I am enjoying and eating lil extra

have stopped counting my calories these days but I go to Gym regularly:-)

Rain rain

Good day today :)
Yes again was stuck in crazy traffic but fun ...music system in my car not working so all i do sing loudly maybe that's why nobody comes near my car ha ha
Savi : Thank u :) Did ya yoga ?

I love training ...its so much of a HIGH it's amazing...its makes me happy.

Home to CP to Home .was my day

That's all i did from home went to CP and back ...on the way back it took me 3hrs . Thanks to the rain.
I wonder what is with rain and traffic Jams ..like really why ? 10 drops of rain and all traffic lights stop working i wonder why ?

Anshu : I am sure u r missing traffic jams ..actually r u ?

Jane kya dhoondta hai e mere dil..tujko kya chahiye zindagi

I am confuse at this stage of my life..was never been like this.

I wanna do something BIG, focus on my career but at the same time wanna have personal life as well
I want to get married but when I meet broken families...i take a back seat
I wanna have kids but when I see my sister raising my nephew (its tough) and making sacrifices.....make me think again and again

I read this long time back..just sharing-

When you are kid u wait for college life so that u getaway from exams, strict teachers etc
When you reach college u think whem im gonna start earning
When u start earning..u eagarly wait to get married
When u get married..u wanna have kids
When u have kids...u wait for them to grow so that u get some time for yourself
When ur kids grow...u want to marry them off
When they get married and busy in their lives u feel lonely

Life is strange ??
What do u guys say?

Ek Sawaal

So if you had to choose what would you choose

Love and devotion

or

Trust and loyalty

I would choose trust and loyalty.

I am trying to think why would someone choose one of the two (well u cannot have both ans as women in 30's I know u know )

Love and Devotion- When you are in love and all things sweet.
I guess you can see your man loving you and being devoted to you.

Trust and Loyalty - Its a more logical choice and not one based on emotions.
Would also enhance the chances of longevity of the bonding .

So does love and devotion evolve into trust and loyalty ?
or rather in a good relationship evolve on these lines ????

PS Don't ask me why I asked this sawaal.
I am like a trainee on day 2 ;)

Ex Managers

Anhsu and Monica aaj kal koi blog nahin likh raha.

Bahut buri baat hai .

I was not sure what to write about today.
Work was as usual groom search was as usual ;) (lol)
both stagnant.
Shweta is going to take another year to send me the few pics that she clicked of me.

I have to attend one of my Kindergarten friends daughters 1 yr birthday tomorrow.
Please suggest what should I take for da baby?
I am really excited to meet her.

Remember the sunscreen song that Prach sent
I was jus looking at the very old school pics on face book and then we reminiscing over comments about incidents etc. long back in school and suddenly I remembered so much.
Just like that line in the song about how your siblings are your link to the past.
These old firends were acting like that for my school memories
Will send you guys the pics (they are really funny and in one of them I look like a complete dada when in class IV )

School days........Purani Jeans

Thanks to savi or anupam i too took a trip down my schools days...Dam i was ugly like hell he he. Thanks to facebook i met sooo many school frnds after 12yrs ! It is amazing most of them are mothers and are in UK or US .Somedays it seems like another lifetime and somedays like ytday. The exam paper distribution , PTA s , standing outside the class, the pride in getting the lowest marks ha ha . Late night panic calls .......BASKET BALL . Grt days but i wonder if i want them back ...hmmmm maybe not . I like where i am right now . Its amazing how close you feel to your school frnds even after a decade of not being in touch !

Would you guys like to go back to school?

BTW me driving very well :D

This time its Delhi next what?

After Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Japiur its Delhi.
CP, KB and GK...serial blasts!!! sad...

Anshu- Musical fountain is now songs of the sea, they have changed this show now...it is a laser show however people who have seen musical fountain show they say fountain show was better.

Prachi - how z ur driving goin on??

guys..I am bored of what i am doing ..wanna do something hatke dunno what?

now some masala-
Hey Anshu u remember Supreet Bedi..she is moving to Melbourne//she would do some course there I have also heard that she has fasaod a buddha also!!!! lucky girl
pata nahin where is my lucky boy oops man.

Public announcement

Can someone please inform the Delhi public to stay off the roads when they see Prachi - do let us know the car number..
when did you start driving - oh my God bless us all!

S & S - didn't you see the musical fountain show? i think that ws one of the most beautiful things at Sentosa.. where r the pictures?
i am tired of people thinking they can get away with saying anything abt India & us as if they were superior beings! even here i have started giving them a piece of my mind abt their rules & ways of operating. Savy maybe you should hv boxed him.. But humara money welcome hai ..
We have these 3 locals in r class & are completely alienated as they feel there is no need to understand cultural & appreciate differences as they don't deal with "Asians"! @$&*@$#

Sorry I missed this IS PRACHI DRIVING ??????????

Singapore Sink ah sorry sank no no stank nahi song

Ah the million dollar question are we meeting this weekend ?????????
can we meet sunday ?

So everybody seems to have enjoyed our Singapore trip and taken time off from THE BLOG.
((Prachi yeh kya ho raha hai ? slow day se slowest blog tak ))

Well, Shweta is right I caught on my sleep and so did she !!!!
There is no comparison to waking up late in the morning having a nice breakfast.
She should thank the hotel that they wrapped up breakfast by 10.30 nahin to I would have woken up mid day only.
Definitely more joy than seeing tall skyscrapers, clean roads , size 0 women, size -10 men , butterflies or coloured birds.
so yes my enthu was 0 for singapore and being there changed nothing.

Highlights of my trip ate a crab (with shell messy but YUMMY)
bought a pair of formal shoes and a sisley bag.
And have started using my last trip BKK wala bag now :)
so this one has some waiting to do before I use it.
Overall I have been a good girl.

Loved the songs of the sea show (sometimes you wonder what all humans can think of) , the underwater tunnel and of course watching the GMAX reverse bungee jumping
The only reason I did not do it I am going to do it only once that will be wither in NZ or CPT
so did not want to kill my will to bungee jump.
(cannot forget prachi's face when her CD when she did it.)
And this reverse bungee jump i think wud have been scarier as the there is seat ur strapped to and then it is shot up to a height and then let loose like in bungee jumping and you flip in the air like a million times.
You have to be drunk to do it and thats why it is in Clark's Quay

Loved SQ, wonderful airlines, never had a response time of less than a minute from flight stewards.
and yes got a free joy ride on the way back was sitting on the tail and the plane went through turbulent weather (in the pilots language) for almost the entire journey so was being well shaken.

Almost boxed a taxi driver (this happens when I am with Shweta)
have to tell u this
we boarded the cab opposite the esplanade ie where the Merlion is
and in full Indian fashion, shweta or was it shagufta was telling the cabbie where we had to go without getting in the cab.
so this cabbie goes sit quickly u know we have rules and regulation in sinapo
arrey **** if you have rules then don't stop where you are not supposed to. hmm

( as if we don't in India or the rest of the world. we just choose not to follow them -true democracy)
And on second thoughts Singapore swam because they declared that I was SG  and G was as in GOD.
And the moment I called for a taxi there would be a Q outside because I am the one who TIPS.....

No Blog ????

What's happening gals...no one has written anything!!!!
PlZZZZZZZZZZ write
Our trip to Singapore was ok. we did not like the city much but they have few amazing places like underwater world, songs of the sea.
Our flight to Singapore was almost khali, we all had taken window seat behind each other buttttt destiny....both the seats went khali till Singapore !!! Ufffff hai re kismat!!!
we reached there in the evening.
We went to places like Clarke Quay (where Savy didnot let me do bungee jumping), Orchard Road, little India, Bugis street, Night Safari, Sentosa, Arab Street
Arab street was nice, we had yummy Egyptian food there.

Guys...one more thing Savy had gone there to catch up on her sleep!!!!!! she had spent 30 K to sleep in a hotel room.. crazy woman!!!

i have another day to go this week!

Hello Ladies,
S & S - May you be sucssessfull in your endeavour of finding sexy partners sitting next to you on the flights! Very cheap of you to not come to Mel from Sin - you are 1/2 way there..
Beautiful weather in Mel!! Don't i sound like the Brits - focus in life "The weather".
I am bogged down with lectures & commuting & assignments to complete - don't know if I am coming or going & missing home like crazy. Need to go on a shopping spree to please myself! i am tired of writing - so love reading yr blogs!
I am on for next friday - will be there on time....
Savy - listen to Prachi & behave!
Mons - Whats up - something interesting happpened in Hyd?

Enjoy-
A woman arrived at the Gates of Heaven.. While she was waiting for Saint Peter to greet her, she peeked through the gates. She saw a beautiful banquet table.Sitting all around were her parents and all the other people she had loved and who had died before her.They saw her and began calling greetings to her, "Hello - How are you! We've been waiting for you! Good to see you."
When Saint Peter came by, the woman said to him, "This is such a wonderful place! How do I get in?""You have to spell a word," Saint Peter told her.
"Which word?" the woman asked.
"Love."
The woman correctly spelled "Love" and Saint Peter welcomed her into Heaven.

About a year later, Saint Peter came to the woman and asked her to watch the Gates of Heaven for him that day. While the woman was guarding the Gates ofHeaven, her husband arrived.
"I'm surprised to see you," the woman said. "How have you been?"
"Oh, I've been doing pretty well since you died," her husband told her. "I married the beautiful young nurse who took care of you while you were ill. Andthen I won the multi-state lottery. I sold the little house you and I lived in and bought a huge mansion. And my wife and I traveled all around the world.We were on vacation in Cancun and I went water skiing today. I fell and hit my head, and here I am. What a bummer! How do I get in?"

"You have to spell a word," the woman told him.
"Which word?" her husband asked.

"Pneumonoultramicro scopicsilicovolc anoconiosis" , she replied.

Moral of the story: Never make a woman angry . . . there will be Hell to pay!

Savy, shweta..I am so envious of you..chilling out in S'pore..but I hope you have a good time!!
Prach..have you bought a new car??I think I will end up buying a nano..:( :( ha ha
lets meet..!!

Heat is on

Good news guys Col Prachi is now Brigadier :)

Prachi will be prchi and me will be me.
No I was not able to goto the yoga thingie.
Well, there is a story behind it and I know you guys love me for them.
Saturday was lazy day and since sunday morning I had this really horrible tooth ache.
Mons has said :30 is a life turning year and God is giving me a really strong message here.
This year I lost two and now I will loose my third wisdom tooth :)

Ok so monday I was a work and in till about 5 pm for a project shroject and then while going home
i went to the dentist and came back home like at 2130 or so And then today morning
my mamu's son was hospitalized (nothing major , a chest infection gone bad ) and we had to go see him.
So long day and moral of the story
sometime life just passes you by :) especially when you do nothing .
So prachi keep going at those calls believe me (I know u know) are better than my days at work.
Though mex pays me less but sometimes it pays me for nothing and I ain't liking it.


PS I will do yoga this sep gals don't worry.

Savi did ya ??

Savi u can run but you can not hide ha ha

My day was busy , no trainings but just calling up people sending my profile to places as my bank balance is starting to dip at great speed . There has to be some balance in life if the bank balance dips @ 1000 per hour or minute or second then it should increase at the same speed...so to get that balance right i made a whole lot of calls !
This being on my own is teaching me a lot about my self it's amazing ! since whatever i do effects only me i have to be really careful ....i dunno if i will succeed in making money or not but my learning is big ! BUT some days I can not take it ...But then i do yoga and sweat out the bad energy :D
Moral of the story YOGA IS Good ha ha so we back to you SAVI: where are you ?

We all need to blog daily....Mandate:-)

Anshu, Mons kahan ho???
