Once upon a time.

I was 1-24 years of age and growing in age every year.
I was skinny ………and I was worried about it.
I was good at studies and I was happy about it.
I sang well and people liked my songs.
I wrote well and people liked my poems.
I was 56 kg of weight and was 5 feet 8 inches.
I felt bad when someone pronounced my name as ASHISH, but mostly they did.
I used my phone a lot, and talked to lots of people.
I used my comp a lot and surfed a lot on Hindi Movies.
I didn’t like English movies, nor did I like western Music.

And Now,

I am 25 years of age and still growing in age every year.
I am not skinny ………and am still worried about it.
I am not good at studies /nor at work and I am still happy about it.
I sing well (at least I think) but people don’t like my songs.
I haven’t written for some time now, for people to like my poems.
I am 68 kg of weight and am still 5 feet 8 inches.
I feel bad when someone pronounced my name as ASHISH, but mostly they do.
I use my phone a lot, but talk to very few.
I use my comp a lot and surfed a lot on Hindi Movies.
I like English movies at times (latest is the dark Knight), but I do not like western Music.




And in times to come

I don’t know what will become of me. I don’t know what I will make of this world.
The only things I am sure of are

I will love mom
I will love her
I will love myself.
Period

3.5 years

Do you remember something, she says?

I say, yeah I do.

What is the date today?

Ohh, this one line is so intriguing.

Well, for one I am a very forgetful person, and secondly it was a pretty bad day at work.

It's 20^th August. Ryte?

As I told this in my mind I was remembering all the possible things that might have happened on 20^th August ever in my life. All I could figure is that 5 days back it was Independence Day and the next holiday is on 3^rd September for ganesh Chaturthi.

Stupid, tumko kuchh yaad nahi rehta.

She was right, I must say. And I do not figure out ki how she remembers every inch of chronology that has happened in our lives. Does it mean I am less into details?

Arre, how can you say that, I gave you a surprise on all your birthdays, and I remember you, most importantly.I was now sounding very foolish.

Yeah ryte, but don't change the topic. What happened on 20^th August?

Kya hua tha?

20 august ko to nahi, 20 february ko kuchh hua tha, and …..ohh haan, usko abhi 6 months ho gaye .

SO what does that mean??

Right right, I know.

Its 3.5 years now that you first asked me out?

I asked you out??? Duffer…..tumne poocha tha if you remember?? And what is this asked me out thing? Sounds so cheap.

Cheap. Isme cheap kya hai? Okay let me reframe, 3.5 years of our togetherness

Now you got it. But You asked me out . Okay??

Haan bhai Okay!!!!

P:S: It has been three point five years of us being together and to say that it has been Okay would be defaming it. It has been a Beautiful Life, with her. Enchore.

life is good

Yesterday With Immu @ tea

We discussed a lot about how one can live with one girl.
How girls are also bad as guys are.
How are his girlfriends?
How were my earlier girlfriends?

While we discussed, nothing else came to my mind when we talked of girl
There is just one girl I know of, at least my mind does- meethi.

Life is Good.

asif Ki Chai

When I came to Hyderabad from Chennai one thing I knew I have to check was Asif ki chai? For, I Had by then heard a lot about the chai, the place, from Naree.
Naree is one fella who projects everything in a positive light, for him the glass is always Half Fill.
His narration of Hyderabad , specially the locality where immu Hasita and party live…was bilkul ghar jaisa feel aata hai, maaast hai…and all.

Well, to say that I belived every word of it would be a white lie.
But I respect this positive attitude that Naree has towards everything.Khair uske bare mein kabhi baad mein likhenge, the topic now is Asif ki Chai.

I put up my temporary stay at Bhoju`s, for I was in search of a flat.And my old frnd of 10 years obliged.

Me Immu and Hasita usually made everyday visit to this place, and had not less than 4 cups of tea each.and I must say Asif ki chai and Asif ki dukan is awesome, in every sence of it. I would really like to mention where and how it scores :-

Ambience – Cheddis type look, tables which can seat 4 a time, no Harakiri in general,
Service- nobody rushes you for order, nobody rushes you for not ordering
Quality – tea is great, typical irani chai of Hyderabad
company- old chums , really a treat to be with them

Overall, one thing I will surely miss out of Hyderabad, will be Asif `s and its chai
