Birthday, making me 27...

As against a single or maybe two cakes, this year marked the introduction of a third cake. Also, it was a new set to friends added this birthday, viz., mane, bitya, jackie and some of them whom I don't even remember by name. This time I had taken a holiday from work , spent time with my family the whole day and followed by my friends of Swaroop Wardhinee who did the final strokes to this celebration.

Also, this year I was pampered by a close friends family and that was something memorable.

Gifts are only obtained by girls on birthdays, but I was lucky to gain some gifts from some really loving friends.

Everyone I could recollect wished me today and that really makes me feel blessed and motivates me more to do it for others !

Thank you everyone for making it special again !

Love you ALL !

It’s my Birthday…

It’s the season of enjoyment and celebrations at every home, its marks the peak of the festive season and its great pleasure to have your birthday on this auspicious occasion. As expected, but this time with a fairly bigger response was the start of the celebrations at around 12pm. My old pals and my mandal friends started with a cake makeover for me and thus began the long lasting celebration. The day followed with lots and lots of phones, texts, face book notifications, and tweets and not to forget personal visits of many of my friends. At one point I wished that I had a secretary who would attend to my calls or reply to my texts, such big was the response, but surely this pain was far far lower than the sense of achievement and the feel good factor I gained through these wishes. They really added more flavor to my celebrations and raised me towards higher altitudes of joy.

This celebration takes me to 26 years on this earth and if I look back I really can’t realize how these years went by, but surely there nothing to regret till now and wish the same old days repeat for me and my well wishers and time passes by in peace and joy for everyone. Special wishes today consisted from the IT gaint, Google wishing me on its homepage which really put me in the sky, and then the real lord supporting me with the rains.

Thanks a lot everyone, for making this day special again! LOVE U ALL!!

It’s my Birthday !

I woke up at 7.30 in the morning, to realize that its my birthday and how come no phone calls yesterday night, its nothing else I could do but curse the Shit Reliance network and my bloody Nokia device, and then when I check my device I see a galore of messages greeting me on my birthday to realize that it’s really ‘THE’ day and some human beings on this earth still remember this slim, fair and handsome guy named 'Sachin'.

So then I get up and get ready for the day not to enjoy, but to get into a training session, for which, I had to travel yesterday via the these days dull Kingfisher Airlines, accompanied by the dangerously red dressed air hostessess, missing my dahihandi celebrations and more importantly my birthday celebrations. But that’s the way it is and I get into the breakfast table when the phone rings and no guesses its my friend calling me to wish me, before receiving I look at the watch and its 8.30am in the clock from which begins the saga of my birthday, it continues with calls every half an hour from each of my well wishers. For some calls I could not give justice, due to my training, but made it a point to call those people back in the tea breaks.

The evening is followed with a surprise cake cutting celebrations from my regular and beloved Lemon Tree hotel staff where I am staying on this day and it adds so much to my heart that I totally forget that I am somewhere away from my house or my social life.

This day as every birthday of mine gives me an additional share of wishes in the form of Calls, messages, emails, Facebook, Orkut etc. from new people who are new additions to my life and also from people who are now re-associated with me, and make me realize that “Duffer you have lost one more year of your life, so Enjoy MORE”
