Happy Birthday Jisha...A memoir of my Tvm days..:)

Actually I was thinking of posting this on June 22 ...But as usual..Lazy me..:)..Summary : It did not happen that day. The reason for choosing June 22 is obvious..Jisha's birthday..So first of all..Wish u a very very very happy birthday..I know this is the one b day after three years when we are not together..So let me pray to Almighty to gift u all that is good for u..all which would bring only smiles in your face...And a sincere wish to enjoy your new den to the maximum....And may you continue to be yourself with that sweetest smile of yours and the great determination you have...And also be a good tamizhathi(which u can be easily ..:P )

So this day brought me back to memories of my Trivandrum days...to be truly called my Attinkuzhy days..(got the name Attinkuzhy after the place where we rented a place to stay). Life was really fun..even with the hectic working schedules in
US Tech and the very sincere and too hardworking Vidhu, who believed in being in her office, (Nest Group) , if it was possible 24*7*365. Even with such time-for-nothing situations, we used to enjoy a lot...Used to have so much fun..Cooking, Trying out new recipes, Weekend Brunches, Outings, Movies, Real hot discussions on anything and everything under the sun, Gossips, Fashion, Beauty Tips..and what not...We were never short of topics. And of course, days when Aloor was there..she herself made way for us to discuss on and on and on...her daily routine and whatever she commits in a day takes more than 24 hours to be told and discussed and hence she would remain the glowing personality amongst all. After she entered into a new phase of life, then there were me, Jisha and Sowmya..to be joined by Vidhu...

And talking about Sowmya, the first and foremost thing that comes to me is her ability to sleep only in the day times and to be awake late nites. Wonder, if she was living in US timings here in India..And God knows, how does she live when she actually travelled to the US? :) ...may be she would be following Indian timings there...:P

Vidhu...the real workaholic...so sincere...and also too committed in making blunders..not in work, but otherwise, especially in the kitchen, and also a water maniac..So fond of washing dishes always, that a dishwasher would be an absolute wastage if she is there, coz she would probably be not satisfied with the cleanliness of the equipment in washing. :)

Jisha...The one who loved Malayalam a lot and was the only person to be talked about Malayalam books or articles or in fact, the only company for high range Malayalam movies(could be translated as award winning types or so). Also, our MBA exam studies were really remarkable. Assignment writings and submissions were worth getting A Grades or even higher if such things existed. :)

Also, joined by Jyothi and Geethu when I was about to make a move from there. And all those wonderful discussions with Jyothy when I was just about to leave were a subject matter for many essays by many great ppl ..... :)

We seriously had a hell of a time. Though I was in college hostel during my engineering college days, I should term my hostel life as a carefree and unorganized one and the Tvm days as the one where fun co-existing with responsibilities and worries with joy.And though work used to be capturing us too much, we never missed having fun. But one thought which comes to me now is that the ball of life keeps on revolving. It does nt stick even if you want things to be static. And coz of this ever changing feature of life is why emotions are there... feelings are there... If you don't miss something, the value of that is lost.. So let this be a tribute to the wonderful times at Attinkuzhy and also the a thanks-giving to Almighty for having created the feeling of "nostalgia", which truly is a boon to mankind to reminisce the past.


Love you all...Miss u lottsss..May life give you its very very very best :))

So let me wind this up with a snap of all of us(except Aloor) on my wedding day..:)

My World :))

Being one who loves the concept of blogging, the first query to myself was "Why did nt I create one of my own?". Actually I love writing, I love penning down my emotions any time and even I love thinking and jotting down my ideas on anything and everything which make a move in my life. Still I did not create one for myself. Donno what did not prompt me to do that, but anyways may be the time has come now only.

And when I thought that I would start with the one thing which came to me was the world..the people who are with me thru thick and thin..the people who have made a mark in me...Yes..There are so many of them to whom I am indebted. But, when I start thinking, the first thing which would come to me is my family. My hubby, my dearest Gopu...who has become my sweetheart and best friend and..I seriously donno how to portray what he is to me..but he is the one who has given my life a new meaning...taught me how to lay the pieces correct in the jigsaw puzzle of life, and all the more, gave me the confidence to accept challenges and take life as it comes. We got married for almost an year now..and would be celebrating our first wedding anniversary soon....Anyways, I take this arena as the one to wish him once again a Belated Happy Birthday..and though formal and though I never say....a big note of gratitude for all that you are to me.
And here is a picture of our most memorable moment ......the day when we walked down the aisle.

So coming again, to myself...my Achan, Amma and Kunju...you can say...people who are so so so much to me that they are everything to me....Achan and Amma are people who have been strict with studies and behaviour and all that...but have never imposed anything..rather never been strict after a particular age. They taught me the good and bad, they taught me to distinguish right from wrong. They believed a lot in us, kids and brought us to a level in which we are confident enough to face the world and we really have the courage and maturity to decide ourselves. But, the good thing is that we don't say it out..neither me ..nor them...But inside, we are all one :)...And when I write this..I am forced to say.." I Miss You"...lots and lots and lots....

And Kunju...how do I describe her...As someone who has a real mature mind and the power to conquer the world, but does n't feel confident of anything and everything. Hey...That z not the real case..Just kidding for all her scribbings always..Anyways...a cute little sister, the best pal I ever have..That z her..And Miss u too lotts and lottsss.....





















From this small family, last year I walked in as DIL to a "Meleparambil Aanveedu"(Hope Malayalis will remember this movie). Four bros of whom Gopu is the second, dad and mom and my SIL and Sreekutty make that big family. So learning as days traverse...what is in store for me:))

So, That z what my immediate world is...And let me learn more and solve this sudoku puzzle called life..and jot down my emotions so that it ll be an online diary for me.
