Me and my gang. Aksar yeh SMS karte hain. Ki agar tum na haute tau kya hauta. Kya hauta? Telecommunication providers ghaate mein jaate! Just kidding :p. For me, my only achievement is to have good people as my friends. Actually, it's wrong to call it achievement. I am lucky. I feel lucky. Thank you, all of you.
SMS received so far -
Yunus: Bhaijaan
Happy Friendship Day
(Thank you, buddy. I met yunus during SYJC. That was when his hindi essays were appreciated by our teacher in the classroom. I never remembered his name properly and used to call him "smiley" (assuming his name was Ismail for whatever reasons). He was my classmate during BSc - Vocational Computer Application course and we became more friendly during those three years. We used to discuss programming and I used to take a step beyond current teaching with his assistance. So when my college used to teach C, I was learning C++ with his assistance. Though he had potential for good programmer, he switched domain to Network Administration.)
Shubham: With ample time and perfect clay, he created you and on this earth send you to stay. I met you and it was His play, to be with you any price I can pay. It was you 'My friend' who made things come my way, you gave me the space where I can let my emotions lay. Can't find words for what I want to say, I thrive for this relation come what may. This friendship lasts forever thats what I pray, I wish you Happy Friendship Day.
(Shubham is a nice jovial fellow. You rarely see him in down/dull spirit. Ever smiling and pretty good in making environment comfortable around him. I used to tease him for Bhagat Singh mustache :). Haven't seen him after he got rid of them. I guess I am quite atrocious when it comes to tease people.)
Vrushali and Christopher: HAPPY FRIENDSHIPS DAY 2day a simple prayer arises from our heart "may our friendship sustain all pains and difficulties n we may remain friends forever".
(Chris is hero of
this blog entry. But then his heroics doesn't end here. Chris and Vrushali have the most amazing and inspiring love story I have witnessed in real life. A detailed out post shall come in soon. Amusing love story to start with. Faced enough difficulties in convincing family for marriage. They both stayed away from each other for two years (Chris in Mumbai and Vrushali in Baroda). In those two years, they both achieved personal milestones in order to prove themselves before their families. Vrushali topped her MS studies and Chris made amazing progress in his career path. A wonderful couple. Chris has been my buddy since BSc final year and Chris introduced me to Vrushali in 2002. Thank you, dear friends.)
Vinay: It's not an achievement 2 make 100 friends in a year, but an achievement is 2 make a friend for 100 yrs. I know i made one N that's U. Happy friendship day.
(One of those rare gems that doesn't seem to give up on me. And that keeps me going all the time. Thank you, buddy. Isae bhi bahot pareshaan kiya hain maine.)
