A Weekend with Cousins

This weekend has been a treat...Shopping..Delhi Darshan and meeting cousins after so long. Perfect ingredients to fill all spaces in my weekend schedule. I met three cousins all married and met them all after long times...Two Brothers and a sister with their families are all now lot more mature and understand the life the better way!!  

Cousin 1:

Friday evening, right from office went to my first destination..near AIIMS.. Since bro is an ortho doc there..so lives nearby..Bro,Bhabi and Shobit[his 7 month old son] were waiting for me since I told them that i would be there around 7 but thanks to Delhi Traffic and lovely MG Road under Metro Construction..reached there late by an hour.In Dinner, Dal Makhani and Aloo Gobhi were completely attacked and complete justice was done to the wonderful food prepared by Bhabi..Small and single family..they in real terms were depicting life of newly wed couples who are in process of planning for life and making some bold decisions on the way. Friday night we all one by one tried to make shobhit sleep and guess what...All Failed :p... a complete power house.. wonder how kids have so much of energy.. He made us all completely tired and we were feeling sleepy... but finally the mother won and shobhit slept at 1.30 for 3-4 hour sleep but we all dozed off..Saturday planz were to see jaane tu once again ;) but two reasons , one my bro was waiting for his interview results and second the lovely weather tempted us to move for some shopping and India Gate late night...Plans did turn into reality and 7 Pm we went to South Ex to roam n shop..I bought new shoes..Nike..and i dint tell my mother about the actual price :D

Had some snacks @ Bengal Sweet Shop and McD before going to India Gate..Its truly amazing place and one of places where one can see all kinda life.. Poor Rich Happy Sad Excited Depressed all kinda people are there..Mausam bada beimaan tha... so full enjoyment there. Reached back home at around 1..and then sote sote 2.30 baj gye fir se.. Thanks to Shobhit once again...but this time.. i achieved this feat to make a child go into his dreamworld... i made him sleep on my lap and that was awesome feel.. :P

Did i mention we had simply delicious.. awesome..tastiest Pasta i ever had..Bhabi made Pasta in white sauce and Man !! it was tooooo gooood... 

Cousin 2 : 

Come Sunday and its one of the days one never wishes to get up early morning..and history continued this sunday as well ;) as the eyes opened wonderful Rains outside were making whole Delhi feel Happy and the plans to move to Destination 2 were getting delayed..!! Finally rain stopped at 1.30 and bro dropped me at Dhaula Kuan.. took a cab and reached Gurgaon in mere 23 minutes and 10 bucks.. Not a bad deal on time and money :)

20 minutes of walk to my cousin's place..and what a wonderful 250 minutes of Meet-up we had..complete delight to catch up after long and amazing hospitality was cherry on the cake :) She is married for 18 years now and have two wonderful kids..who again are Champs..! I am so proud of my family..before meeting her, i never knew her as a person..she was just my cousin and thatz it..but after a lot of chit chat and exchange of thoughts..i guess i need to seriously think on some points she expressed about life..for a first impression it looks to be a philosophical session.. but if you start relating yourself .. then you feel you found a right person to converse with.. One who has seen life in Highs and Lows ,Ups and Downs and Today she makes us all proud..!! :)

And family genes..look at it..her daughter/ my niece is a wonderful dancer..closest word for her dance can be PROFFESSIONAL even though shez just into her 10th now.add to it the never below 90 % marks...i guess its all in the DNA of our family..you have high standards to match..and every new member in family crosses it and sets a new target to achieve...!!

 If I can quote a quite true yet looking philosophical quote 

" To be complete in life, you need to have 3 satisfactions : Satisfaction in SOCIAL, PROFFESSIONAL and SPIRITUAL Life "  by D.A

 How True !! Yet i feel for an individual its a long journey to finish..!! But yeah..wil keep checking once in while on all the three fronts..!

 Did i mention the yum yum Paav Bhaaji i ate.. and as i took another paav from plate.. had to put it back Thanks to Sis who stopped me from eating.. coz something else was coming my way.. and only my way ;) he he..!! Wonderful kebabs and Wonderful Talks.. a great combination at dining table :)

 Then we went to Metropolitan..FYI its a mall in Gurgaon to get some music CDs..did the shopping and went to their shop for sometime before going to Barista for a coffee.. and there a wonderful question came up in my mind which i want to ask you...! Why do galz order only Hot Coffee...??? I have some different answers on it.. but still wats ur say!!

 Cousin 3 :

 Came back,had a chit chat and finally moved to Destination number 3..my another cousin who came to pick me from some pre-decided place. I gave him company over his beer with my Nimbu Paani :P and it was on da rox ..Itna nasha Kingfisher se nai aya jitna Lime water ne de diya..wonderful Dinner prepared by Bhabi and we all enjoyed it followed by wonderful session of Jokes..big time PJs..great sense of humor sometimes..all thanks to Kingfisher ;)  till the clock struck 12..Next day is Monday and we three all working professionals had no choice but to take some rest and get ready for week ahead....and hence The End of a wonderful weekend.

 and as i write these lines i get wonderful news: My Cousin Bro [ Cousin 1] cleared his interview and would be Senior Resident Doctor coming month.. Congratulations to him.. isko bolte hain Jhakkas news..!!

 P.S –I am happy these days..and wondering my life is still good, infact better even after cutting my phone calls and sms's ……I analyzed my call history and noticed near to 80 percent decrease in number of calls and almost 50-60 percent less talking time on phone in last few dayz… 

** Emotions while saying this :

If you are girl… I am in no mood to explain on this.. and if you are a guy.. dude..!! phone ka bill control ho raha hai ;) **

 Cheerz..!!

Randomness in Thoughts

I dint want to write this but then i feel, why not...Sukhdeep for some is one person they can always approach when they need some help and can consider him as person who is a friend.i feel people need to know that person on the other side is human too and carry the same emotions that they carry. So if they feel they should be treated well so do I think. 

Recent days…so many small small incidents took place which took me to emotional low.M not writing them here but they put a doubt in my mind if i am a good friend.i feel i am unfair to some of friends who really care for me saying these lines but human tedency... can't help it..!!

You will always think of people for whom you you wanna care rather than who care for you. Don't know why but i keep going back to repeat history which put me in pain.But neways as the saying is

"Ki Farak Painda..!! "

 Feel Good Factor is getting back and i am back to same old person which is available 24 x 7 but now not for everyone..!! The 24 x 7 quota has been eliminated for all people who are friends to me just for the help though it still hold for FRIENDS..

 Friendship Day is round the corner so i will soon put the post about my friends and this time its going to be public.Some secrets finally getting revealed, some names would be heard for first times and some names would make some of the people in some kinda confusion.. ;)

 Did i tell that my search for home ended.I have got a place to finally settle down in Gurgaon and i hope things go well and life also takes a smooth road for some time atleast.Thanks to all who helped me at all times possible.One person needs special mention and her name is Hina. Althoughwe haven't met in person yet , yet everytime we talk, i feel like still there are people who you would always want to be friends with.Pretty impressive writer, MBA , Quality Analyst. Everytime i talk to her, i learn since she is 400 percent times more experienced in industry. :p

 Dont know what are contents of this post but whatever has come in my mind.. i just wrote here..!!

 P.S- There is no one to whom this post is pointed. Its just what i felt sitting one day and thinking all about things happening around my life..!!

 I guess i need some time for myself and i might take it out very soon ;)

 Current Status of Life : Still Trying Hard to feel GOOD in Delhi..!!

Status : Committed

Amazing huh..!! The kind of response i received after a small change on my profile on orkut, i had to take some time out to think whether this status change was something i should not have done.!!

I was congratulated, questioned, investigated too and what not..!! but nobody took an effort to really think the way i thought while changing it. :p... even if i would have been on other side, would not have taken pain to do that.. So no offences..!!

Everybody took commitment as me going with someone, dating, having a gf without getting this thing public, blah blah blah....

Declaration: I am not seeing anyone [These Days :p]

When the status changed from single to committed , I took it as small change in my life since 2008 has been year which has been quite an OK kinda year so far..and has made me think so many times to committ to some decisions in life and take some of them on a serious note.

So to clear this suspicion , thought of writing and sharing here.

Some of My Committments::

Committment towards my family - They are my source of inspiration, my guide and they are the ones which who are with me under all circumstances. Happy, Sorrow, Ups and downs they are the ones for whom Sukhdeep is and wiill always be the same .

Committment towards my work - After completing a year in the industry, i can visualise some of the real aspects of life and i have committed myself for a better delivery on my work . At current position , i wish i could add more value but current role restricts me from doing that. Anyways my committment towards my work saves me from going lazy towards delivery of work and i hope the committment leads me to better paths where i could feel satisfied on proffessional front as well.

Committment towards my Friends
- This is little tricky committment here..coz this committment is not actually towards my friends but towards myself. Committment to be Honest to myself about my friendship with my friends. Every Friend has his/her own space in my heart and nobody replaces anyone there. So my committment to be honest with each one on being friends and not faking myself to anyone is one thing i wish i can carry to distance as long as possible.Doesn't means that other committments are not to be taken that far.. but i feel little extra effort is needed in this case :P


Committment towards my Religion
- I am Proud to be Sikh and i am committed to it. I committ myself to be faithful towards my religion, abide by its values and keep its flags flying high ..!!
The commitments are lot more and all can't be mentioned or written.

Still wondering why i missed committment on Relationship :P ???

For me, committment to relationship is same way as is for you but i donot have any answer to time when i will be committed, donot have any answer as to whom i will be committed to and really dont know if it happens before my marriage :P.

I don't know if someone really comes in my life but the matter of fact that Crush and Infatuation makes life little more cheerful and i don't know if by any chance any one out of those turns into relationship and committment.

But as of today : I am still 'SINGLE' :)
Yeah yeah i know i've made you happy for a second !! ;)

It was a long due post and finally being posted but the fact that i don't have access to blogger in office so i check it once a fortnight when i am back home. but now i think changing the settings would help me directly publishing my post by mailing to one email address. P

Please bear the Warning Message at end of every message now on !! :)


Cheerz..!!

God Bless
