My first Car!!

Yes it has finally happened!! I bought a Honda Civic 2000. Its in pretty decent shape, and best of all it has only clocked 43k miles.
Drove it all by myself a couple of times now. Its a nice experience :)

Talked with Kutty today. I was relieved to know that he is fine now. Man, is he having a bad time :(. Praying that a new phase will now begin for him.

Listened to 'O dilbar jaaniye' song just yesterday. Its a Mohammad Rafi song. I first listened to in school competetion. I guess it was 5th or 6th standard!! Anyway this boy just sang it so well, that it became one of my fav songs. But then after that I didnt get to listen to the song anywhere. Worse I didnt know the movie or the singer name!! Even when I was in college, I used to search net for the song. But it was all fruitless. Until yesterday! Yes, thats some 12 years!! Finally, found it on Raaga. And it was so great to listen to it again :-)

And now just relaxing. Just finished watching 'Life is beautiful'. Its a decent movie. Ok chao for now, will go have my lunch now (btw in lunch we have chane, that I made yesterday night!!)

Hun Hor Ki Kahan?

Lai chal mainu sajna othhe
Jithe koi na mainu vekhe
Kalla baith ke socha main, ki likhaya kismat mere lekhe

Koi na mainu dekhan aave, koi na mainu chedde,
Dooor hove eh duniya, naale isde bakhede
Waqt othhe khada hove, te main waqt de naal
Dukhan to aapne ronda rahan, dooor karan da na kara paryaas

Kismat te main dosh lagawaan, mehnat di na maithon rakho aas,
Jad ro ro ke hanjhoo muk jaan, tan nawan jeevan sanjon de main kara upraale
Waqt phir uthh ke chal pawe, te main waqt de naal
Saare mainu vekhan, te mainu hove nawin uchhaian di bhaal

Eh sab ne par khyaali pulaao, mehnat te mera saath na paao,
Uchhaian aa ke meri jholi pain jaan, mainu hai bas is di aas

(Yes this is one of my poems, that I wrote in college on 18th Feb,98!!)

Flashback (16-March-2003)

We (mostly ICE including Anuj, Balajee, Inti, Mallu, Madhan, Kannan, Prakash, Mukund, Sridhar) went to OOTY. Came back yesterday morning. It was a nice place to visit. We enjoyed a lot, but food problem was there. Overall this outing was required as it refreshed me. We took lot of pics. The weather there was very nice too.

Also we travelled in Chaiyan-Chaiyan train from Ooty to Matyapallayam! There was a comical incident in which Anuj, Mallu and Sridhar had to pay Rs100 to a constable. Actually they were taking a pic of the Railway engine. At this point a constable came to them and said its illegal to photograph the engine (crap obviously!). He wanted to detain them at the station itself (the train was about to leave). Mallu didnt want to pay, but Anuj paid him Rs100 to get on the train. All three were furious afterwards, but it was fun for us!!

Smth serious

Hey guys, now I plan to write some poems in my space. Nah, I am not planning to pick them up from some site. I plan to jot down the poems that I or my friends have written.
To start with, the following poem was written by Mandeep Singh. He was with me in MC hostel in +2 in DAV college Jalandhar. No contact with him since then :(. If you are wondering how I have his poem, then the credit goes to my dear diary :)
Cutting, all the crap, here you go!

Assigning Questions to Answers I know

Thinking who you are,
what we share, and why are we so.
Often I am unable to arrive at some conclusion

Thinking if you are a fairy
I know and I have seen your words come true
It is like a dream to think of you
But I wonder if any fairy can be so much near to my heart
...as much as you are

Thinking if you are sunshine
The warmth of your presence near is there
Secure we feel when night is not there or is there
The source may be God,
who I dont know is paying me for what good things I have done
But sunshine is not pleasant always,
...and you are always

Thinking if you are a flower,
I know my life without you,
if not all thorns is no more than leaves
But no flower can be as much colorful
...as much as you are

Thinking if you are a surprise,
the happiness when I see you is there
The excitement is there
But surprises are shortlived,
and I know,
you'll be always with me.

The thing is 'who you are??'
A question that I assign to answers,
answers that I know...
