M "UMMM" BAI!!!


Back in Sewagram…I was so exhausted…of all the heat and the routine college times…every 6 months I need a break from the monotonous life I have…and then a city which changes lives of many…did provide me that much needed change…hence…Mumbai is not just that…but M “UMMM” BAI from now on for me…

Since I couldn’t go to MEDICON this time…I had to get out of Vidarbha…coz that’s the one place I keep going to and fro (Of course I love it) …Nagpur-Sewagram-Nagpur…still had to go on a new route…and then Mumbai is that one safe route for me…easy and approachable…importantly…I knew dad will send me there…so decided on coming here…and indeed…barring the journey of the start…all the trip has been just UMMMM!!! (I mean that to be lovely)…

Though I have been to Mumbai many a times…this was different…I am always accompanied by someone…but this time I was all alone…traversing this big city alone…plus to add on…I also went to Pune…and that was one city I had never been to…so kinda adventurous outing too…

About Mumbai…it is really a city of dreams…people here are so many…with all the crowd always around you…but the best part is no one here bothers about anyone else…they just are so into their own self that they don’t care what others have to do…this is one thing I really liked…coz then we get all the freedom of doing whatever I wish to do…enjoy…roam around…wear anything whatsoever…no one has enough time to even glance at you…

This place is so widespread…that just to go from one place to other we may need to travel an hour or two…but that again is fun…coz transport here is…people’s favorite…LOCAL…it’s actually so awesome that even a travel of an hour doesn’t seem long…vivid kind of people we get to meet in there…I bet it’s the best place to see all types of people residing in Mumbai…

Then there are this very famous areas of Andheri, Bandra, Dadar, Churchgate, etc etc…which have it all…come food come shopping…it gives you all…Bandra’s Linking Road is one such great place…it has stuff for all…commoners and biggies…I just loved it…

To tell you all…I had known this all before…but truly explored it all by myself this time…learning to travel in the locals…moving to places in Autos…shopping all alone…trying bargaining even though m very bad at it…and the final feat..Going to PUNE…knowing nothing of it…but then my friend there helped explore me that even…and have the very yummy CAD-B (A chocolate shake with a difference) there…

Back in Mumbai I met many a people…surprised quite a few actually…they had not anticipated me coming there…that too all alone…

Truly I enjoyed every aspect of this wonderful place in totality…and rejoiced being solitary…unescorted…a very dear friend told me the how having a holiday by oneself can be fun and seriously boss…its amusing…moreover rejuvenating…these 8 days I spent here were full of travel and fun…

I can say…these holidays worked as an antidote to the college overdose…and also a compensation for the six months of steady life…

To the Dreams, To the Eternity, To the HIMALAYAS!!

The World is full of adventure and fun. Every new turn we take get ahead as a new challenge. And yes I was talking about life; though even the rikshawallas may come up that way. As the famous saying goes, “Life’s once, enjoy while you can” . So make sure we have our own share of adventure. The message beeped “ What is your crazy dream?” Giving thought for a while, I responded “To go out unperturbed, no bothering, no works and no thoughts on the roads to the Himalayas” “That wasn’t crazy till you mentioned the Himalayas. If you remember you stay in the centre of India and without being disturbed how can like go off for a long long time.” “Wish I could just go.” “In your dreams…” “Yeah! In my dreams…” was the last I could write at 2 am. The next morning, the alarm kept ticking and my eyes felt heavy to be opened. But then there is life, there’s work. I got into the showers and then into the closet and then out in the cab, rushing away to the hospital. Today

Smittened by LOVE!! :)

Usually surrounded by individuals of all kinds… There is this one kind in them that’s special… As they say ‘Someone, somewhere is made for you.’… That special category… I don’t know how many of us have experienced it; The LOVE, is indeed a special feeling… Unknowingly, unseeingly he came into life… equations matched and things sparkled… At the start it was nothing but friendship … Day by day facts remolded… Shorts “hellos” turned into Long talks… every bit of communication enclosed a meaning… simple meanings swiveled to become essence for life… Staying away from the chats became difficult… Meeting him became ‘most important’ in the to-do list… May be that’s just coz I connect to him… or may be that’s because I  like him… but the most beautiful may be is coz I am driven towards him for the special fondness I have for him… I currently stay in this dwindled phase of life where I am unable to reply any ‘WH’ question related… All I know is that there is some force which is impelling the

Love Thy Parents!!!

Plagiarized from a friend’s status on Facebook…”Certain things are best when choreographed naturally”…so true n so genuine…and the best example for this…relation with parents… The day I was born, by default I got my parents…there was no option kept by the Almighty…as in choose between the people…but I guess He knows better who can be comfortable n taken care of by whom…and so this beautiful alliance is a gift to us at birth I guess… MOM n DAD…two best humans on this earth…most lovable n most adorable…every kid has a special place in their heart for these Angels of Solace…and I am no exception to this Golden Rule… They are the inspiration…the way they manage the home and the workplace both together and in sync is something to be looked upon at… They are the motivators…it’s for their sheer support n love that both of us…me n my Bro have been able to be on the road to our dreams… They are the instillers…putting up all good values into us…they have made us able to rise up in lif
