21st birthday


"birthdays"
different people have different opinions regarding them.
to some a birthday just adds another year to your life...and its immaterial whether ur loved ones wish u or are wid u on this day..
what matters is how they feel about you...any random day.
the other school is of opinion that that birthdays are DEFINITELY special :)
these people to me are NORMAL creatures!this non-idealistic group of people is to which i belong.
everyone who knows you,and knows that its ur bday will wish you.ur beloved frns n family...n even a colleague who doesnt really give a damn about you!
but i say whats the harm.a wish wouldnt KILL someone.Gals have this reputation of being MAD about "DAYS"....and m not the exception here..im the rule.
i have alwayas been SUPER excited about birthdays-frnds',parents',and most of all MINE.
theres something in the day!

i have turned 21 this 13th and im not yet over my birthday.the day started with a big bang of a chocolate box on my head while i was still in bed.it was my younger brother.He has his own ways.
then was this bowl of steaming maggi...plus yum cheese-sandwitches with mom.the first person to call was my deepti,my schooltime buddy..who is meanwhile staying in bangaluru..v almost talked for an hour.
and then there were phone calls on and on!plans plans plans!!
ultimately v ended up fir the usual ganjing.While i was getting ready,there was this strange surprise-a courier from someone i least expected.flowers-card-chocolates..i was happy and sad at the same time.
why do ppl have to bring out the past again...this is something beyond me.Gives me jitters.phew!Nevertheles...now that i had somewhat spoilt my mood i was pretty doubtful about the whole idea...also recently i had a fight wid one of my oldest frnds n she was not there...probably in 6 years this was my first bday she missed :(
this thoguht kept buzzing me throughout...but then i met my other frnds...those who were there FOR me,at the moment....and i thought maybe next time.
The warm hugs (those that im skeptical about otherwise) and the bright smiles made my day right at the start.It was 6P.M in hazaratganj...moti mahal.We had the all time favourite
chowmein and cold drinks.Better things were ahead-the famous basket chat and golgappe @royal cafe..the faluda kulfi which is yummier than any fancy ice cream in the whole WORLD....the walks on the newly constructed pavements...the whole view of the fountains-
giggles at almost any random thing-the skewed shoe-look an uncle gave while saying a simple "excuse me"...the goggles wala..the rickshaw puller who wud do anything to take us in :P
the gals who stopped us to ask "we are new in this city...could u tell us where is the best LOUNGE :D "...man had such a great time!

It was 8:30 and all of were getting calls from our parents.To end up we decided to go for a long drive near the ambedkar park.It was pretty late but my frnds kept saying..."abe birthday roz roz thode he hota hai!"
The whole idea of 5 gals on their respective activa's driving just to have a look of the lightning at marine drive is psych.
We parked our scooty's and went on the walk...the cold breeze and photography-those were some memories man!
Chit chatting and laughing continue for another hour and then it was finally time to go back home.We better take off :D
Wen i was back it was 9:45 definitely LATE.Expected a blast from mom...but only sparks came out..and soon my brother came up with the cake-blackforest-my favourite...and then the birthday song!
The topping was my best friend singing the bday song for me on skype.

i dont get to say this often but yes i know im blessed to have such ppl in life.Things dont go smooth each day.Every day is not worth remembering.But on days like these you feel special..you feel loved...and you realize how important friends & family are!
Who says days are not special.It would only be divine if we were ALWAYS reminded of our UN-ASKED gifts.
