... a few somethings...

I really itched to write, from the past couple of days but when i sat and thought as to what i should write of , cause no new event has crossed my paths so far, i came up with nothing and so waited for something... anything.... to happen when WHOA... i suddenly realized "events" "somethings" duh ! Every new day is a riddle which you might or might not be able to solve by the end of it ... so well here goes to those .. SOMETHINGS that i encountered....!
life can be a treat and also a real punishment at times....and especially the recent past few days have taught me two very important things:

1. is that you can never be certain and can never be sure... the moment u expect it least it hits you right in your head..
2. unpredictable... a hell lot of unpredictable.

As hard as i shall try to keep this on short there is a plethora of emotions tossing in my head screaming me to give them words...it at times baffle me and not just baffle but a "drop - a - jaw" baffle that things that you took for-granted in terms that its very much bloody normal uummm... like brushing your teeth in the morning, turn the key to start the engine, open your mouth in order to eat etc can one day be not so normal.. you know what i mean... nothing that's happening (and i thought to be normal) is normal anymore.. in fact its total complete opposite of normal disguised and telling me "jharna... where have you been, revise your definition of normal for a change ya". and yes i know i have used the word NORMAL many times here .. that explains how much its effected my thought process.
After leaving me somewhat shaken what option did i have but to accept it but now that i come to think of it, it indeed was good, surely strengthened my immunity kinda enhanced me with a shock absorber mechanism and also made me realize i can be real foolish at times... So all thanks to my friends, colleagues and strangers around me.. giving me a reason to write again... kudos !

and well now that i am sick (viral) , sitting in my house... the free time gave me a lot to ponder which i kept postponing... and on that serious-happy note i shall end it.

... things that makes me smile.

well.. it isn't original, but simply loved it, how small nothings matter so much and how they turn out to be few cherished moments...

Moment of it !

SO.. WHICH ONE (IT CAN BE MORE THEN ONE..) ARE YOUR HAPPY NOTHINGS !?

trip to shogi... and oh wht a trip!!!!

Two things i realized (which have no mutual connection what soever 1st is that a blog that is shorter is read more... honestly no one has the time to sit down and read an entire episode of long events and 2nd is that a sudden UNEXPECTED sweet word or compliment can elate you for every time you remember it....weird but true !)

..it started with deepti (a fellow colleague) farewell when we (the entire team) ,and she were to say a few parting lines for each other and if i put it plain n simple words,with no added adjectives i liked what she said (more because i was unaware of what was about to come) , n now later when i did my favorite thing i.e. to ponder, i realized how these tiny nothings can turn out to be a bundle of joy in once mundane life. wont drag it on further, as that is said and done (a whopping done) i would skip n hop to shogi trip..(as it is most people would know i was to write on this, the chatter box that i am..!) if i need to summaries it in just one word expression it would be "aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh.........." !!

To start with an excited me reached office Fri. evening ,all set to go station, sat in the "chuck chuck" train set rolling.. and already i was smiling bright (as if a two year old was bout to c a 3D animation movie)..and after a long 1 and a half hour of setting our scattered seats together, we sat down and after that banggg.... the gala time began, dashed for the window seat...lol !Dinner ,followed by endless chattering... all of us laughing,talking, staring and then laughing again, "ahem ahem" came a voice behind us all heads turned to see to find a patrolling police man saying "ap logon ko ise pehle nahi bola mene par ap shor mat machao complaints a rahi hain.. light off karo" n bang he clicked our lights off and marched of with high air silly enough to think it will put a full stop to our talks, he left ,we laughed (again) and carried on talking hardly realizing it was 3 am in the morning!

....Finally after a highly interrupted nap of an hour, we reached shogi in the morning next day...well by avoiding getting into details... of a relaxing two day trip i would say it was one splendid trip, it had all - laughter, sports(obstacle course), fun, food, breathtaking view, comfy accommodation, amazing company and most of all quality time to do nothing...! and then before we knew it we were sitting in our shatabdi ac chair, coming back to Delhi hoping every minute that we would get a day more.. or that we would miss our train! lol!

I would say the best part of this trip was that i got to do something i forgot or was out of touch for really long and i.e. NOTHING..! and when i say "nothing" i mean it, all we did was relax eat sleep n merry making! If you come to think of it what would you say if i said i had a total "do-nothing-relax-enjoy" time of 43 hours!!! sure is something aint it!?

so were we, happy was i, and treat was the trip..!
