Last 7 Days

This is my last Tuesday in Samsung. Coming Monday I will be released. Past few days have been marked with parties full of celebration and nostalgia. Especially the treat that I gave to my team mates was full of nostalgic talks. Everyone remembered the last 3 years that we spent together. That recently team got split up made others too remember the good old days.

Bangalore and people (except few Autowallahs) here treated me well for last three years. Many things happened in these years, both personally as well as professionally. So again it will leaving back few good friends, good memories, good times, good place and also good weather. Again a stage in life coming to an end. The best part has been the satisfaction that I am taking along with. Its about leaving in minds and hearts of everybody out here, good thoughts and memories about me. And that I think should be the motive of time spend at different stages of life.

Be it my bakaiti, insights, solutions, listening to people's thoughts and above all humourous behavior, people will do remember me. Be it at breakfast table, be it in cubicles, be it during tea meetings or be it during snacks people will do remember my antics and needless to say I will too remember those moments and people.

Be it my manager, my super manager, my juniors, my colleagues, my old friends, my new friends, my room-mate, my ex roommates or others, I enjoyed the company of everyone and I believe they enjoyed mine too.

Thank you Bangalore. Thank you everybody.

Mumbai Indians Out :(

Mumbai Indians' loss to Chennai Super Kings ensured they are out of IPL2. It left me with a dilemna of whom to support now.

Being a cricket fan from Jharkhand who lived in Delhi for 4 years and now living in Bangalore for last 3 years I need to find a new team to cheer. Mumbai Indians was the first choice for the sole reason of Sachin Tendulkar. Wherever GOD resides followers too reach there. I found that the case with most of the people who are not from the states to which IPL teams belong. Sachin's presence drew a lot of support from neutral people all over India. Infact few from IPL states also supported Mumbai because of Sachin. When Mumbai was playing Rajasthan in a close encounter few days back, I was matching match in one of the Malls here in Bangalore. Except one or two rest of the crowd cheered Sachin's batting and team. Unfortunately they lost and everyone left the Mall disappointed.

I guess I will cheer my present living place for today's match which they need to win at any cost to remain in the league. The opponent tops the points table and have been a dominating side for the whole season. Hopefully Bangalore wins and I will not have to look for the next option again. Any ways the party tonight gives me a chance to watch the match with much more people than the other matches.
