Better part of Summer '05

Scorching heat, too much work, emotional turmoils, misinterpretted tickets and smiles, someone's acts of kindness were main features making the last of my sophomore days "memorable" and forcing me to go back with a rather heavy heart.
Queer behaviour and estrange attitude was the all i had to offer during the first week of my stay at home, doing nothing except reading and withinn a week i read Archer ,Dan Brown ,Danielle Steel.By the time second week came by i had already started to miss kgp and was thinking of coming back early....but then things turned around...came to know that bhiya and didi were having affairs and they had "enlightened" everybody at home about their intentions to settle down!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bhiya surprised me because it was not the same girl that he had shown me sometime before but didi's affair was quite surprising because i thought she was impeccable.
Any ways there was excitement in the air since their respective choices were approved and engagement dates were being planned out...my luck was still running high since 16th and 17th july were fixed for their respective engagements...ha just in time for me to return on the day of registration.
The remaining days went about in shopping and arranging caterers, booking hotels, looking after guests and what not....but the worst part was shopping , my deeds took 3 days to find a suit then matching chappals and then matching jewellery uuffff......
But the best part were the engagements itself....at first it felt very odd to call someone bhabhi....speaking truly i felt shy ,aneways it was really nice to realize that i have now become a devar and a sala too....danced really hard and made everyone in the family dance....
For the first time in 2 years i didn't want to come back to kgp and wouldn't have if there hadn't been non availability of tickets.It was really hard to control my emotions but i managed not to cry at home but as soon the bus moved tears started to roll down....
For the last one and a half or two months i have been riding an emotional roller coaster sometimes high and then suddenly having a steep fall...but i have one thing to say that i have never ever played fool with anyone and i really meant what i said.....hmmm....but some times destiny is not on ur side...
Aneways i am really happy for both my brother and sister and wish them the best of life with their respective would be spouses.

glad to see you enjoy that much !! weddings here are just the one night formality where you go, eat, meet some people and before you know it, you are back home . and i really havent had the luck to attend any of my close cousins' weddings yet .
and dont worry too much about being misinterpreted . i think destiny had other plans for both of us . enjoy kgp and keep sleeping ;)

2 tejvansh: Thanx be.Well i still have the guilt but certainly it has been abated by the cg factor and regarding mugging even u need to mug because u got my inverse

2 shaunak: i hope that destiny once again takes the turn for good, because coming back to kgp has refreshed the memories i forgot while having a gala time at home

shaadis really really get the tempo going...meeting all those cousins together after so long, the festive feeling reflecting in everything around you...dressing up in suits etc[:D]...

tell u what...i think u dwell too much upon things/times u feel u've done sumthing wrong...u arent the kinda guy who'll go around playing the fool...and ppl who meet u dont take long to know that...

to peace maro...aur so jao...right time and mausam to sleep :P

my brother got married just a year back.
so i happen to pretty well know how things feel when such stuff happens. for once i cudnt imagine my brother ever getting married.
also becoming a devar is the best thing that can happen to you.being the young one you will be at the recieving side of all the pampering.
enjoy it while it lasts.....
