Anup - Served Fresh and Hot

Another lazy Sunday is passing by, but the good thing is I happened to eat few 'modaks' as it's Ganesh Chaturti today. Though I am writing this a bit late, but still I would like to call this as my Birthday Post. I just tend to write few things about myself here.

-> My name Anup and my nick name is......don't have any, anyways my name is just a 4 letter word so why short it further.
->I couldn't pronounce 'R' when I was a child. So I would say 'car' as 'cal', this is not all, I had my own list of funny words, like 'bashashe' for 'namaste', 'eehhh' for 'food'. Really don't have any idea from where these words came to me.
-> I have been wearing specks since my 3rd Standard. It started as -0.25 but now its -5.75 and -6.00. Damn I am virtually blind without my specks.
-> First thing one would notice about me is the scarcity of hair in my head. And I hate when people point out saying this, as if I don't know about that. People don't you have anything else to look at.
-> I had my first email account when I was in my third year engg. I couldn't think of any good name, so I named it 'brave_anup' and it went through in the first go.
-> There was a guy in my 12th tutions who taught me how to sign. The way he signed for me looked really good, but when I started adapting it, it started to look pathetic. Still I use the same signature.
-> I was very proud of my muscles during engg. because I did worked very hard for that. But it's all gone now, and its been almost 8-10 months I haven't gone to gym.
-> I enjoy reading, and have been reading a lot since last 6 months. I have also started to love Malayalam and Tamil songs, I should thank Bala for that.
-> I did my schooling from IGHS and would not like to remember those days. I am in contact with few friends, but still I would not like to remember those days.
-> I did my 11th and 12th Science from SMV college and would also like to forget those 2 years. I avoid having communication with those friends.
-> I did my engineering in Computers from DYPIET and those 4 years just flew by. If given a chance I would like to re-live those 4 years. Those were the best days of my entire educational life. I had great friends and I am in touch with most of them.
-> Now I am work with the World's Local Bank and thats HSBC, as a SSE. My interview is not less than a story.
-> I just cannot imagine myself without my office friends. I have been started enjoying life only with them. And we are a big group.
-> My mom and nani are the like icons for me, people can learn from them how to live a life even when you are surrounded my difficulties.
-> And last but not the least, I believe in the 'Power of Dreams'.

Wishing myself a belated Happy Birthday again.

My Silver Jubilee


Its been few weeks I haven't written anything and that is because I was expecting (yeah exactly EXCEPTING) to write my 25th blog on my 25th birthday and what better would it be than to write about myself.
But, I have been typically myself and didn't posted anything, and by the way I celebrated my 25th birthday on 18th of August, so here I am writing this post but not about myself.

The day didn't started off very well, I had to push my bike a lot as it was punctured and damn it costed me 120 bucks for many other reasons. Then the whole morning I felt like sleeping, so in the office I was nagging NS (yeah she is the tester of one of the project and damn I dont know much about that project), then I didn't had my lunch as I went on to see my new house (yes guys my new house,and I know I haven't talked about it yet, but may be next time in detail) then kept myself focused completely in work.

And now as I am writing this, I am few pegs down, had my dinner, and these guys are making a lot of hulla hops over here, specially BS and MM. This is the second consecutive Friday where I am doing my night out, but I won't like to stress myself, as I need to go to office tomorrow and complete some of my work.

But people I promise to post my incomplete blog may be by early next week, serving me hot and fresh.

Tada to all for now.

Happy Friendship Day

This first Sunday of August, well it was since I guess Thursday, people started forwarding the friendship mails, and I was like what happened to these people, why all of a sudden all of them are forwarding the mails. Then what, Google zindabaad, then it striked me, ohhh....its Friendship Day this Sunday.
Well its also the first Sunday of my birthday month, this month I will be completing my Silver Jubilee, GOD, really can't believe that I am 25 year old.

Well, its a very normal Sunday for me, got up late, watched TV, read, listened to music. Friendship Day didn't bring anything new to this Sunday, except the number of forwarded messages which kept on coming in my cell. I even don't know whether all of you read the forwarded messages, and does it really mean anything to you all. But yeah, I like when anybody messages me, it at-least shows that the person remembers you and still treats you as a friend.
Small things like this doesn't seem to be important but they really do matter in life. sometimes a simple 'Hi' over a phone conveys a lot a thing and it does not cost you a fortune to say it over a phone. So, going forward I have thought to keep in touch with all my good friends. It's not like we have forgotten them but we just tend to ignore to contact them, the reasons may be many, but we must overcome the reasons and be in touch.

I would like wish all my friends(the school friends, college friends, the office team mates and all the other Long Lost Friends) a Very Happy Friendship Day. I would to end by saying "never hesitate to start a new connection but always keep the old connection going"

These are my School Friends.



Well, this is the perfect pic which can describe all of our college mates, isn't this funny.



These are my team mates, with whom I have enjoyed a lot in last 2 years.



Cheers,
Anup
