i am a sucker for relationships…and i have always told my mum…never fret over anything that can be bought by money. always regret relationships that you havent worked on…
after almost a month…it is these emotions that compelled me to write. (un)fortunately…this wont be an anecdote…surely wont be amusing…so there…dont tell me tht i didnt warn…
the ISB current batch graduated yesterday. a sad feeling…because i know this will be the last batch that i will ‘really’ know..! and it was nostalgia for me. not just memories of my time…last year…and the sheer deluge of emotions that i faced..it was also the association that i had built with the batch ths year. i am sure i wud be known as the alum who was on campus every friggin month…(yes…i still work for ATK…yes…they still pay me!)
made some really lovely friends…got more respect than i deserved…but most importantly…never felt alien in the batch. i may not know everyone…but always felt home…! the people were all lovely…atleast infront of me..! and i felt at home also because i had spent one of the best years of my life at the very same place…
and then today received the CD for the play that the current batch had towards the end of the year, from SS. friggin hillarious stuff..! it was so awesome going back to those times…and its these times when you realize the imprint you have had…cause of your actions. in your head everything is all fine…cause it was you yourself who enacted the ‘real’ moments. but…as is always the case…people dont have it all figured..! and thus is created a multiple image profile of the same person….
maybe this multiple image profile allowed me to be different people to different set of individuals…
…maybe this was the basis of my association…
…not just this batch…but my own as well…
ISB Co2007
thanks for being you….i loved every bit of interacting with each one of you…and you shall remain as a special memory…
feeling very nostalgic today…missing the moments…! cause i know it wont be the same again…
life moves on…

And, ladies and gents, Pappu Kanhaiyya strikes again!!! :)
Take a bow Warikoo… you are one of the best male confessional writers I have ever come across. You should seriously consider wrinting a book or two… may I suggest some titles???
1. Be the woman, and patao her at the same time – A How To guide…
2. The hidden value of male tears!
.
.
But I do agree with the last line… life moves on! And way faster than you realize.
lol@ pratik…i dont think you were so sad when we graduated also warikoo… i just feel sorry for the batch…coz i know they’re going to lose touch with each other no matter how much they promise to be..and it’ll never be the same again.. no matter how much they want it to be.
:(
damn it elaine… I was trying to divert the attention by “trying” to be funny :)
And here you go, bringing the truth and infinite wisdom of your curly (not yet grey) hair into the picture!
But once again, I have to concede that I agree…
whats amazing is that of all the Co2007 blogs that I have checked, none have written any senti stuff or any stuff for that matter about graduation. this is the last blog i expected to find all that at!
DAMN YOU BUGGERS…!!! YOU FRIGGIN INSENSITIVE MORONS..!!!
Pratik:
well…to answer u first…
the 1st book would be a how to guide on lesbianism…so no thanks..
the 2nd book cannot be a best-seller as long as karan johar is alive…and capable of writing one himself…
SO…F*** OFF..!!
and sistani next…
dude…last yr arnd this time…when i sat down to write my entry..no words cud do justive to what i was feeling..! so i decided not to…for a month. am sure thts the case with others too..! :)
elaine:
the only one who understands me..! yeah…it will never be the same again..sigh!!!

thank you patankar… and i have straightened my hair these days, so the wisdom comes from freshly bonded hair.

my 3rd suggesiton..
Pappu Tiger ko Gussa kyon aata hai
Elaine, do you mean freshly pasted and ironed hair :P
chillaxe warikoo, no multi profiles for u in our batch – u wr cool and so wr we! May be there is a diff from batch to batch in terms of age and thinking – sometimes we mean good, still it happens, we learn..
elaine:

daddy:
