Redo!

Sometimes you just do something in life which you think you should not have and want that one moment to get back and erase and Redo!

But life is not about redoing something...it is about what you have done and sailing through the good and the bad that you have done....

Just watched 17 again...this movie makes realize that life is never about something that you never had but about all those things which you already have and have forgotten to realise the importance of them...

On this note,
Good Night Sweet Dreams

Terrific Traffic Jam

Every Morning when I walk down to the nearby auto stand to take a share auto to reach the office all I land up is in a BIG TRAFFIC JAM...Looking around I try to analyse the reason for the jam and to my surprise I find that there has been no accidents..no vehicle has stopped mid way nor is there any security check happening.The only reason for the jam is more and more number of vehicles.For personal convenience,every individual ends up buying one car. All you see is more and more number of cars....and every car will have only one person sitting in it. The concept of carpooling does not exist at all. Usage of public transport and the transport provided by the company is not used to it full brim.I am not blaming anybody but today if we do not realise the importance of carpools and usage of public transportation system, we will end up adding more and more number of vehicles..inturn contributing in polluting the Mother Nature. Not only pollution,but the Govt will be forced to plan something like metro stations and other means of conveyance...hindering the economy of the State.
The other reason for the traffic jam is the narrow roads in Pune. I mean the roads were narrow always..in between in the pretext of Road Widening they have narrowed the roads even more.Plus the amount of dust that is there on this half constructed roads is enough to blind any person who is driving thereby increasing the chances of accidents.

So next time you are travelling alone and you see a group of people u think u can trust...stop and give a lift...
Drive Carefully beacuse you know you have somebody waiting for you to comeback home.
Love u hameesha

yenaada Rascala...Mind it!!!



Well this week I was in Chennai,attending the engagement of a very dear friend.
DAY 1:
After all the work work and work in office I managed to reach the airport in time. Pune airport is very small but I guess it is my fantasy to always see an airplane. I reached Chennai by 1:30 in the night and my gal gang which had reached a day earlier was all set to pick me up. It had just been a week that i met them but to see them over and over again had always been a pleasure. We always meet like we are meeting after a lifetime...so full off new information always. After some exchange of information(gossip) we finally let our mouths relax...and were off to bed.
Early next morning the friend who was getting engaged came down to wake us up...The way she hugged me I could feel how excited she was on her D-Day...and I was happy for her too.
We all got ready in our best sarees trying to make this day special for her in every way possible.
While we were getting the bride ready, we heard the thavil play loudly announcing the entrance of the Groom. We all started to peep out of the room to have a first look at the guy who was going to steal away our friend away from us.
The ceremonies had now begun and we took every care to make sure we didnt leave a single chance to tease the guy or the gal...The pandit read out the vivah muhurat...the thavil and the nagaswaram played again...the rings were exchanged... marking the agreement of the marraige proposal.

PART 2:
Leaving the couple alone to enjoy their special moments together.We went to meet an old friend in Chennai. He lived in a place called Thoraipakkam. Chennai is a huge city with better roads and infrastructure. Beyond expectations the weather in Chennai was amazing, we went to the beach at the Besant Road. Some how the beach is always got me philosophical . Tolling across the Road,we went shopping by the beach, some beads... some colourful materials ...the authentic Chettinad food...and all the worldly talks...
I had a heartfelt and a wonderful Evening... :)
DAY2:
We were now in Tambaram meeting another friend in Chennai.After a relaxed morning, we hit th roads to discover more of Chennai.The cheapest and the best way to see any city is to board the local bus and travel end to end. We ended up in a place called the Express Avenue where we
went completely bankrupt shopping...But we loved the way we spent our afternoon. Late rin the evening we met a group of other friends. It felt great to meet them ...:)
A fight with the automan in an unknown language...some running about here and there with the shopping bags in order to find out a way to get back home... We finally reached Tambaram. The eve was spent with some good dinner at the friends place and as usual some exchange of information...:D

DAY3:
We woke up early in the morning and left for Pune. Thanks to the metro trains in Chennai which make travelling so much easier for the junta.

Some good picks from the trip:
Met some of my old friends
Got a flavour of the Tamil Wedding
Will join the aerobics class nearby to lose some weight.
Dont spend time shopping while in a new place.
Plan the next trip very soon.
The world is too big and you have too lil time to see them.
Love U Hameesha
