Band Of Brothers

With the beginning of every academic year, Outlook or India Today, publish its report on Top 10 B-schools/ Engineering Colleges/ Grad. College and so on. So I was just wondering If they could conduct a survey for me, finding out the top 10 friends of me.

The concept seems to be absurd. However I find some similarities between the two.

Last year they conducted the survey across the country covering over 12 metroes, 9,151 cities and 374971 villages to find out the Best engineering colleges of our country, Even I have Friends across the nation in over 02 metoes, 0005 cities and 000001 village, so the survey seems to be quite extensive this time as well (no pun intended)

Last year they published the report of Top 10 Colleges, Though we already knew the outcome, Same will happen with this report(We already knew the outcome)

Nobody give a DAMN about that report, because you will take admission on the basis of your marks and not the survey, so will be the fate of this survey.

They will publish that same report next year with new advertisement, I promise I will do the same (Though advertisement is an issue for me).

Since  India Today/Outlook and the likes may be busy doing the same survey this year I decided to conduct this survey through the help of a NGO

#Name: Coco

Occupation: Probationary Officer, Bank Of India,

Trait: Huh?? Haaa?? What?? Kab?? and ????

Friend Since: 1998

Coco Is the reincarnation of fool bird DODO. He is irritatingly slow in understanding everything. He will laugh only when you will tell him that "Abe yeh joke tha itna serious kyun ho raha hai" 

He may believe you if you will say Nepal cancelled its plan of invading China, because Bhutan urges not to do so (no pun intended). Sometimes ignorance and simplicity is strenght and he is master of that.

# Name : Google

Trait: Half baked knowledge

Friend Since : 1994

You have a doubt?? Ask google. He will quench your curiosity at least for a moment. He is wikipedia of all slangs. He can turn lyrics of any song into "gaaliyon ki dukaan" letting you wonder what will happen if his lyrics will be filmed (At least censor board waalon ke kaan se khoon aa jayega). He is the one who has given all of us a name of course @#%&@% type.

# Name: Mr. Cricket

He is undoubtedly the best baller I have ever faced (Though I am the worst Batsman the world have seen so far), a maverick batsman, and an athlete in the field, a complete package for cricket. Casanova by nature, he can be easily spotted near girls school/girls hostel/college/saari dukan/chatt puchka thela and every other like place.

#Name: Mr. Gumshuda

Occupation: 4th year Engineering college, Tamil Nadu

Trait: UNKNOWN

Friend Since: 1996

He is the Rancho from 3 idiots, always busy in his thoughts. He could be spotted smoking his tension and wrestling with his thoughts. He is a friend in a need. Considering super silence he maintains around him I am refraining number of words for him.

#Name: Miss Nautanki

Occupation: Mass comm. and Part time Tv actress

Trait:Centre of universe

Friend since: 2004

She is the eye candy of our group. Everyone from this group,of course except me, has a huge crush on her. She consider herself to be the centre of every ones universe. She is a complete showoff.

Trait: Pride/Honesty/Integrity/Values/Principals/BORING

Friend Since: 2001

I doubt If there is any another person in the world with such a disinterest towards anything that sounds interesting. He is a misfit to this 21st century. The fellow should have been born in stone age. In a way he resembles CHATUR RAMLINGAM from 3 Idiots. He was a darling of teachers during our school days (I envy you for this man) and I bet he is still enjoying the same position in his college. A very good son, a good brother, a good friend, a good student, a good TENANT , a good scooter driver, and a very good learner. We love you buddy and respect all your good qualities. Irrespective of what we say you are the ONE !!!!

# Name : Poo

Occupation: Cipla, Trainee

Friend since: GOOGLE allowed me to be a Friend

Dressed in a very elegant style and struggling with medical jargon's, she could easily draw anybodies attention. A girl from a Brahman orthodox family taking about beer/vodka/whisky, and being a very Fun loving, very friendly, outgoing, unreserved, and a showboat is difficult to find but a gem to keep forever.

I firmly believe that happy girls are prettiest girls

Though the name " Band Of Brothers" seems to be absurd since there are girls as well, but had I named it " Band of Brothers and Sisters"  (Oh yukkkk I feel like puking), seriously I would have been killed. It should rather be named as "Chuddy buddy"

And Yes I don't feel ashamed of making fun of you guys.

The Other side Of a Chartered Accountant

Priceless!!

Miracles do happen!! At least in my case it happened!! Its been six month, since I asked her and she said " YES!! I DO". Making me believe in prayers and miracles from the very moment!!

It was not the first time that I proposed to her. I did that at least a  million time in my dreams, practised it for over thousand times with my friends. The fact is it took me three and half month to discover that there is something for her inside me, but I feel I was waiting for her all my life. That is why Every time I look at her I feel embarrassed and I just want to avoid her and to hide myself somewhere, whereas the other part of me keep on fantasizing that she might be noticing me. I firmly believe that  somebody do play a violin and leaves do fall from the trees when you are in love with your kind of girl (at least that is happening with me).

Its not "Puri Kundli Mil Rahi Ho" type of relationship that we share, rather there is nothing common in between us of course except the feeling. She hate cricket, she don't even like the music I admire. We don't have same likes for the Ice creams flavours. But even then

Every time I see her for some reasons I feel nervous. Though it may sound funny or unusual but my cheeks turn red and my face feels hot. Something inside my left chest start beating like a drum.


Her entry to my life brought huge changes in me.

Number of times I comb my hair have increased marginally(I mean DRASTICALLY), Number of times I go to Saloon for my hair cut and shaving have increased NOTICEABLY, to the horror of my parents but to the delight of saloon wala. My phone bill has been increased, again noticeably, giving rise to a suspicion in the mind of my elder brother!!. For the first time in my life I started using words like CUTE!! CHWEEETT!!! whenever she show me pic of her distant cousin or niece or masssii ka beta or bhabhie ka dewar ka bhatija!!! I started admiring girls dress, just to imagine how she will look in that!!! Expenditure (rather investment) on my petrol bills have increased because of number of trips I made to her colony. Everyday I go to that office where my not-so-friendly-boss groans at me, just to see her smiling face. Now I no longer admire the action packed movie of Jackie Chan but keep on scrolling the channels to see if there is any LOVE STORY of dharma production just to get an insight of what makes a great pair (no this is a lie, I am not KAREN JOHAR)


The Journey till date was great. We fought five times, actually It should be called 2.5 times(Because every time I just ignored by keeping my mouth shut ).

She is a gem!!! She believe in me!! She Trusts me!!! but this is not the first time when someone put her trust on me!! I have betrayed someone even before!!! But even then she accepted, she accepted me as I am.She taught me that its not cool to die with million bucks and thousands of regrets. She taught me its not cool to solve every problem by walking away from it. She taught me its okay if you if you say sorry for your mistakes.

She has given a whole a new meaning to my life. She has given me a reason  to wake up early with a smile on my face, a reason to see my ugly (no actually fugly) boss, a reason to visit temple to thank god, a reason to extend hand to a needy, a reason to drive slow and safe, a reason to face the reality, a reason not to be ashamed of what I did in past and million other reason to smile.

I hope I am not daydreaming and I hope you will remain same forever and I hope someday I will prove that I am worthy for you!!!

LOL Moments

Today I was talking to a  friend of mine, who by the way, is the only person in the world who spits venom more than a viper. You just ask his views on any matter and he will be yelling @#$!! and #@&*! after every two seconds at the highest pitch of human voice possible. For him the name of every friend has been replaced by #$!@! etc etc. Coming to the point, we were discussing what  you should avoid asking a CA student.

1) Ok, You are doing CA, Good Beta!! From which college???

This is what happened to many of us when some aunty of our colony, especially whose child is studying MBA from college like Matunga B-school or Oxford B-school of tuticorin (OBT) , visits your home, and asks you!!! We hate this question the most!!!! I bet you if this question is asked in CA final paper the pass percentage will fall miserably. Everyone of us wants to avoid this question.

2) What are you doing beta!! CA??? Toh phir last year kya kar rahe the??

Now this is what we call rubbing salt on wounds. You should never ask a woman her age and a CA student, his number of attempts. This is a unwritten law and everyone should respect it. I just hope someday ICAI will issue Guidelines for general public on " What not to ask from a  CA student" just like it issues Guidelines (though there are n number of guidelines on everything, they may issue Guideline on how to use a guideline)  to help its members.

3) Its a great news !!! You are placed just after you higher secondary!!! How much they pay you??

Who said there is a minimum wage of Rs. 120/day/female worker and Rs150/day/male worker. There is no such norm for  aricles (Actually the norm is only for humans i guess!!  ) This is one such question you should avoid asking a CA student if you dont want to spoil your relationship with him.

4) Hey!! Guess what! There is a new PJ on CA

Now this is the limit. Just google the word jokes and you will find N number of jokes on CA. After jokes on " The Great Shree Shree 540 RAJNIKANTH" and blood sucking "CID PJs" its CA PJ  that is hot on web. Now read this:

Banner in front of the ICAI Delhi centre :
“Drive slowly, don’t kill our students… leave them to us.”

CA Student TRAIN me chadne laga
Akashwani hui:
"Isme mat chad
ye patri se utar jayegi"

... PLANE me chadne laga Aawaj aayi
"Ye crash ho jayega"

BUS me aawaj aayi
"Ye khai me gir jayegi"

CA Student gusse se-
"Kaun hai be tu?"
Aawaz aayi-"GOD"

CA student-"Jab CA entrance ka Registration form bhar raha tha, tab aapka gala baith gaya tha kya??? :p

Please guys stop this. Ek garib ki hayy nai leni chaiye!!! dont make fun of these lame creatures sorry articles. There is a famous dialouge in BAAZIGAR " maaree hue ko kya maaroge Madan Chopra". Yeah this is true for us.

5) Beta why you choose CA over MBA??

The first thought that pop up in mind is , I want to screw my life that's why, do have any problem with that??
 Cmon yaar we were just 15 or 16 (or may be 17) when we choose  this path and there were no LIFE LINE like phone a friend. So we just opted it as every Tom Dick and Harry was doing so.

Coming to the end (Come on , you expect a guy who has  spent his whole day playing solitaire at his office , and then come back home and write all that in one go ? )

Please do comment your reaction. I love feedback. Sabse mast comment ko mere taraf se ek mahine ka stipend !!!! And please dont make me feel guilty by saying i am a proud CA student and all that. I love it too but as they say " Jisse pyaar hota hai log ussi se toh jhagadte hai"

Cheers

Success!!!! is it??

After my 12th, I was confused. I never thought that even I would be planning for my future someday. So after a number of free advice from aunties of colony I decided to go and meet some really learned men to figure out , what I should do with my life.

Personally I was interested in taking PAINTING as my career, though I am not a good painter or something like that. But I was (actually still I am) mesmerised by the mystique of painters who paints advertisement on walls or hoardings. What attracted me more is there name like AAJNABEE Painter, CHOCO BOY painter, etc. They are really cool people, they come in night like batman (or may be in day but who cares but me), do there job and vanishes like Bats do.

 On a fateful day one of my so called well wisher punctured my childhood dream of becoming a painter.

He said life of a painter (street) is full of sufferance, agony, misery (oh god i never felt so much pain in my ears before, stop these synonyms ) , in fact the word itself has pain in it PAIN-ter!!!! So after an hour or may be two of brain storming  we zeroed on CA as a career path ( Though I later felt pain for 5 long years while pursuing it).

So  the rat race began one day. Though I used to be a good student in school  (at least my report card depicts so!) I fell twice and finally completed it in the third go (AAooo...success, ) But you know victory is sweet when you've known defeat.  Although half hearted I chased my so called dream, it gave me inner peace on its realisation and yes a lot of happiness to my parents.

Sometimes I wonder is it a 3 Idiots effect that every now and then, artist inside me, makes me feel  restless. But let it cry inside me. What I learnt lesson from my life ( Doosro ki galti se kya sikhna ...make your own mistakes yaar) let the world end in 2012 or even today.Sometimes this success really sucks!!! Who cares , If you are enjoying the day today. May be, Someday I will be organising an exhibition of my paintings or may be i became a successful CA . But who the hell has seen future. I am enjoying the day today and that is important . May be I have learnt to LIVE in present.

Success is an abstract term. And you are successful only if you believes so. I am successful in my own way! May be someday i will be considered by the society as successful man.
