Wrapping up 2011

The clock’s ticking past 3:52 am and the calendar reads the date 29 Dec 2011 and the very fact that there are just two days left for the New Year to commence makes me feel something. I am charmed, happy, looking at the things that I have been through in this one year. The New Year morning was anything but happening and I still remember waking up with the Mechanics of Solids text book. Clueless, in all of its literal meaning, completely, wondering why am I even around. As a matter of fact I was rather living inside a Collage of Chaos, designed by who-knows-who! But the fact remained the same. I was not content, or most importantly happy. But then as they say, good things come, does not matter if the arrival is pretty late, but then, when they come, expect truckloads! Truestory! Experienced

Cut copy paste. June 21, 2011. Well, that date represents my birthday, and for the first time in 19 years, I had friends at my place at the stroke of midnight, and let me tell you, writing down overwhelming a hundred times would not reach anywhere near what I had felt on the very day for I remember spending most of my school days in solitude. When I say friends, I am talking about two of the few assholes, dickheads, mates, chums, Chutiyas or whatever you may like to call them, who matter the most to me. Thank you for dropping by, thank you for giving a kick start to the better half of my year and yeah- Shalin Sitwala and Hardik Desai.

It sometimes amazes me how two best friends turn into the mightiest foes, all because of a girl, save what happened to me was completely opposite. If not for her, I would not have had you in my life. Yes, Bobby (you can fuck me for making this public). And after that we have been on a roll baby. The innumerable times we chatted over the smokes, of ‘the girl’, of ‘the things’ and all of the bullshits. Also, if not for you, I would not have been the same. - Fenil Shah

First of the fucking all, you introduced me to Entourage, you changed my world. Rest everything is aside! And you know what, it may sound stupid, at least for a few, but then I actually see the four of us, somewhere inside it. Let’s not get into the details! Thank you for clicking all those ‘profile pictures’ of mine and also for your tips regarding you-know-what.
PS: I expect you to thank me, for all of the things that you carried out at my place. Period! – Dhwanil Mukhtiyar.

As far as you are concerned, it was all about the Divya Bhaskar thing and the stories regarding how you became the infamous Rajni of our Cult. And, why not! No one deserves the title more than you. For your long legs and the long list of movies that you passed on to me, I thank you- Jay Parikh.

She came into my life and filled it with love. The irony is, she was not my girl friend. They say relationships over facebook are fake, I say you do not know what relationships are. Always there to charm me up during my mood swings, to say I love you more for more than 100 times a day, and to sing for me and for making all those funny faces. Yes, a little sister who resides in a far away land. You mean a lot to me, and I do love you, a lot. – Nasra

No matter how big your so called group may be, you would always have one friend, who would be from a whole different sphere, completely. You were always there for me, when I needed you. Literally a single phone call away. ‘Amul, in 5’ and you would be there. The things I have told you, the things we have shared, and all the wonderful times we had, along with the ice creams of course.- Miti Desai

Well, if there is something that makes my college life interesting, then it has to be my friends! The birthdays, the Alcohol and our ever beloved Anda Rice. Irrespective of the fact whether we meet outside the college gates, brushing aside the arguments of how much I eat and how much less I pay, you people at least make my life inside bearable, in literal sense. – Binaz, Mehul, Tanvi, Steve, Varsha, Navneet, Shanky and all others.

You came back to our household, after already being through much, and let me tell you, that was it! You have been much, much better for what I was expecting from an elder sister. And I take this opportunity to say, to mention that you indeed mean a lot to me. Yes, I have been a utter bastard, nothing less than an asshole to you at times, but then that’s what I am, and I guess probably you have started getting the hold me lately. Yes you can laugh your ass of when you read this in the morning and I would be fast asleep in the very next room.  Love- Revathy. 

Our car rides and the late evening sneak outs, the suicide talks and the the philosophical advices! Oh, yeah and also for waiting for a good song to be played on the radio, with me. And yeah, you have to teach me driving. And yeah, I am sorry! :P. Wasn't intentional though. Plus, the Mexican dish still remains. You you darling. - Tanvi Thakkar.

Out of all the girls I have been with, you were the one who moved me the most. And more than love, it was admiration and affection, and the beauty of the bond that we shared. Though we do not talk much now, but then you had to feature in here and you know why. For brining the change in me- Zoya Singh

For someone like me, who run out of friends very easily, getting a completely new, random person added to my life was nothing less than a miracle. An amazing fact! Though we are friends for like what, 2 months now, both of us, or at least I know, how good and great the bond is. Let it remain the same, until the end.- Krishna

Acchan and Amma. Yes we have had our on differences, but we have been on the same side too. I may be a disaster as a son, but then, I know, things are getting better and they would be at their best, soon. Though you do not know what more than half of my life is all about, you have always caressed me! Yes, I am blunt, but then you have been at the wrong end too. Love you both. You are the reason for my existence!

Amaan, for always appreciating my work and Nidhi, for being the support system that you are. It was you, to whom I turned, the last time I was fucked up to the core. And Amaan, all those talks, both meaningful and senseless! I seriously LOL at them, at times.

Last but not the least, all of you, who encouraged me to get back to writing. Especially the first four guys! If not for you, I would still have been living amidst of frustration, thinking of things and not knowing what to do about it! Be there always. Love me!

And as I said, the year has been special! No, rather divine.

PS: Yes, as far as the memories go, I have left out lot many things, not purposely though. You all know how senti I get ,right? And yeah, Sohni Rao, I completely forgot you. Sorry!
Good bye the year 2011.
