Dating with Nature :)











Few days back, we had a photo shoot @ NITIE for placement brochure and also for the individual photo for the NITIE website. It was suppose to be in full formals. So all of us nicely dressed in blazer, tie etc. went to the NITIE lawns. It was real fun because before the main photo shoot all of us started posing for our personal photos. So I was also not behind in the race and asked my roommate to click some of my poses. At last, we were made to stand in rows according to our height in which I tried to stand in one of the front rows. But unfortunately I was pushed back as people said “yeh lamba hai, isko peeche bhejo” and like this I was pushed in the second last row. As soon as photo shoot ended, it started raining (By the way, while I’m writing this post it is still raining:P) since you can’t trust Mumbai’s rain.
After 5-10 minutes, rain stopped and we went back to our hostel. Then in the noon, we had our individual photo shoot. After that, I and my friends Am, D, S and Ab planned to click some of the photos in NITIE campus which is one of the greenest campuses of India. On our way what we found was really beautiful. Since there was no sun, so weather was pleasant and cool breeze was blowing making us feel good. We clicked at every niche of the campus. Actually behind NITIE campus we have Vihar lake which is really huge and is a part of Sanjay Gandhi national park and it is said that in recent times leopards have approached NITIE campus from there. Well I think leopards also wanted to have some management gyaan and some technical knowledge too since they also encroached in IITB recently.
Vihar Lake gives a real picture of scenery since there are no urban areas behind it. There are sahyadri ranges around the lake and on some of the ranges clouds were seemed to be sitting. You really can’t say that we were in Mumbai by looking those photos. We found beautiful butterflies sitting on flowers and we caught them in our camera. They were of different colours mainly blue, red, yellow etc. The environment reminded us as if we were on a hill station. It seemed that budding managers were inspecting Nature. But trust me, this time managers were not looking for some profit but to laud Nature’s beauty. It was awesome. By looking at photos you can easily imagine what our experience was. It was really a nice date with nature. Felt great!!!!!

Pyar, Ishq aur Mohabbat !!!!


From past few days I was observing some of the people around me and their love life. And after much thought process I derived some of the astonishing conclusions which might not be true according to you. To begin with I have a friend called A and he is with me in Mumbai. He had various girl friends before and presently also he has one. But when I asked him about marriage his reply was “shaadi to mom ki marzi se hi hogi”. And that forced me to think is love a game of enjoyment played before marriage? I mean how can you spend your time, energy and emotions with a person who you think is not going to stay with you for a long time. Here I want to quote a dialogue from KANK in which SRK says to rani “Mohabbat ke zamane guzar gaye janab, ab chhote mote pyar se hi kaam chala lijiye aap”. So love is time pass or mere enjoyment. Another friend A in Delhi is in love, as he says, with P. But he is always fascinated by his old female friends and even goes to meet them. As I asked him why you do that, his answer was really interesting. He said “Deepesh, there is always a girl in your life for whom you want to avoid your true love, may be for few moments”. On this firstly I was stunned but later on agreed as I too have done this once or twice. After all men are dogs. They are never satisfied with one true love. They are always fascinated by passing by fancies.
Next comes my friend K who did love marriage by going against her parents. But today after 3 years of marriage, she says there is no compatibility between them. On this my persuasions asks me that is love so fickle that it can’t last for whole life? If you are not able to tolerate each other even in initial phase of marriage then how would you be united when more responsibilities will be there. In such cases it’s better to finish it off. But still it’s not easy to face that trauma of divorce and break up.
At last, the finger turns to me since I’m in a relationship from past four years. On this I want to say that you have no right to destroy someone’s life and also you should not give this right to others to do the same for you. I personally feel that love demands commitment and it’s all about care. The more you care more the bond will get stronger. And if still nothing works well, then trust the words “marriages are made in heaven” and “someone, somewhere is made for you”. You will have that lucky one with you may be today or tomorrow. I think I’m sounding much filmy so I should shut my mouth....

"Hum khush hai" says SRK in KANK :)

By looking at the title you must have guessed that I'm happy now days. And I'm glad that I'm happy at the time of writing this post, otherwise you would have again encountered a gloomy post. The reasons for my happiness are:

1. Firstly, it's a weekend and we don't have any hectic schedule today and can plan for some outing. But it might not be feasible because people have committee interviews in the evening and me too.

2. Secondly, my mom is going Gujarat to my dad's place and no more she will be living alone. As my dad works in BOB and he is posted there so mom was living alone at our home. After all there's no point of living alone as now I'm in Mumbai and my sisters are also married.

3. Thirdly, everything is quite chill here in Nitie. Pressure of studies is less as compared to other B-schools. So, I always get time to rest. You may call it just like FMS.

4. At last but not at least, I'm always in touch with my old friends. Initially I thought that my all college friends will be left back and there may not be any contact as all will get busy in jobs, higher education etc. But now days, I always talk to my old friends through gtalk, phone etc. Few days back N, P and Panks called me. It felt so good as I also have people who misses me. I also talked to V1 and also chatted with V2. H and B are always online. So the feeling of missing NSIT friends has gone. But I still miss NSIT :(. Whenever I'm in the gloomy mood of missing NSIT, I always sing the song from Yaadein " nagme hai, shikve hai, kisse hai, baatein hai.Baatein bhool jati hai, yaadein yaad aati hai.Yeh yaadein kisi dilo janam ke chale jane ke baad aati hai. yaadein...yaadein"
