My first job

I lived in Bangalore for almost 8 years. It is the city where I found most amazing friends, my love, my first job, lots of learning and lots of fun. Today I am not going to go on about B’lore but something related to my first job. 

In those days (year 2005) my parents were pretty strict about pocket money. Despite they knew Bangalore was expensive city, the pocket money I received monthly hardly made it to my savings so that I could have gone shopping. I never had heart to tell them that the money they sent were not enough. I knew they were already spending a lot on my education, accommodation and fooding. I somehow gather information that there were lots of students who worked part time in some events like product promotion, helping with events, salesman in exhibition, branding etc. 

I somehow managed to get a contact number of a man who worked to supply manpower to such events. Mainly he was the one who had contact numbers of students who are willing to work for such events as part timers. Some events go on for days and some ends in just three to four hours in same day. 

As soon as I collected contact number of this man I called him and he offered me a job for three days to work as sales-women in an exhibition of arts and crafts in Kanteerava Indoor Stadium for a stall. I had to work from 10 am to 8pm for consecutive three days for Rs three hundred per day. I know the money was too less for the long hours but I thought it was better than wasting time staying indoor. The experience was good. The joy of working for the first time and earning thousand rupees out of which one hundred was a bonus given by the boss . I couldn’t hold to give the news to my parents in Nepal. I still remember those moments. I earned thousand bucks and spent rupees three hundred on buying souvenirs for my sister which consists of candle stand, floating candle and some other decorative items. 

Now don’t call me kanjoos. I realized it was not easy to earn money! 

This was my first mini experience of Job. How about yours? 

Finally ..

 

It’s been 8 years but butterflies in my stomach still exist. I still die to hear him say the golden words "I love you". The talks are getting longer every night. With each passing day the wait seems to be longer. It feels like time has stopped and even kicking the hands of clock won’t help.
We are getting engaged on 23rd November.
It will be a small function but a big step in our lives, two family union. I am so excited. In between RD had come to meet me. My mom introduces him to my Grand-Dad saying “ye aapka chota jawai hai” (this is your younger son-in-law). Grand Dad started with his small interview session and RD was patiently replying all the questions darted on him. Mom teased RD with best wishes for interview
After he left Grand Dad was so pleased to inform my Dad that he really liked RD. He said I am lucky to have such a handsome and good man and family. All is going good and I am dying to meet him again. He is been so busy these days but we end up talking most of the nights.
On the other hand my elder sister (Shweta Di) is getting married on 9th Dec. Dance practises are going on for Di’s wedding. RD and I are planning to perform a duet dance.
I left B’lore and now back home. It feels really great. I am enjoying yummy home food and feeling of being in family feels great with new add-on this time. Diwali was awesome. I was busy with Diya decoration. This time departing from B’lore wasn’t that excruciating because I was so excited for my sister’s wedding. Anil Sawan came to drop me in airport early morning. It was really sweet of him to come to airport directly from work.
Life is at its full fledge

Hotty-Naughty

Its feeling much better to get back to converse and slip-ons, less limping and walking almost normally. Yeah people can still recognise some effect easily but who gives a fuck. I get to walk. Long shopping and walks are back in my activities. I even travel by bus now. Crowd phobia no more but still i choose less crowed places. I'd always been like that. Spoke to dad today. He wanted me to go for morning walk. Yeah dad no parks here only busy roads. Virtual walking also doesn't help except in my dreams.

Can't wait for exam to come and go. Most of the time I'm with my book but i don't feel like studying.

Bangalore is getting hot these days. Less rain and more heat. Najar lag gai meri Bengaluru ko, hayo rabba!

Excited RD will be in town tomorrow and I'm going to airport to grab that piece of hottie.

Need you now

Got my CFA exam on 6th June so busy with the preparation. Meanwhile sleeping a lot and dreaming a lot :P

Expecting RD this month to come to B'lore :">

Have a friends wedding to attend on 15th May :)

Bangalore weather is rocking. It rains like every evening, makes the ambiance so romantic. After my CFA exam i have to start job hunting too.

To all the Bloggers who ever are planning to come to B'lore in May -- A BIG WELCOME (specially to Nandita and Anil)

BTW no one actually commented any thing about the new look of my Blog. Sad guys..

I really wanna thank Anil to help me thru my new template. This is a good change :)

Abhinav Peter Mads Harshita pls come soon to Blore.. Badly wanna meet u guys, fir party karenge !! Yepee

Here is something I wanted to share with all the music lover

Need You Now
Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor
Reachin' for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymore
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now

Another shot of whiskey can't stop looking at the doorWishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now

woah woaaah.

Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothin' at all

It's a quarter after one I'm all alone and I need you now

And I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk and I need you now

And I don't know how I can do without

I just need you now

I just need you now

Ooo, baby, I need you now

Whats with Nidz??

Shifted to pg on 11th march and on the same day mom left for Nepal. I was worried about her as she never travelled alone. I was always with her. We both have travelled by air so many time cuz of our trip to B'lore for my surgery and other medical stuff.

For sure i didn't want to go back to Nepal as there is no physio therapy facility in my town. This time I choose to be back in B'lore cuz I’m planning to get back to work after I finish my exam on June 6th. Meanwhile I'll stay in a paying guest, do my physio, study for exam and meanwhile look for jobs and prepare myself for interviews. Now I see I got some plans. Some months back i was clueless when I was in Calcutta. Now I know what I've to do.
My pg is cool. It got late curfew line. Say like 11pm. It’s near to one of the best college in B'lore, so I always get to see good crowd. Not so bad food. I hardly can make out what sabji was for dinner. When south Indians make north Indian food, it has this south Indian flavour in it. Since Nav Ratra has begun I've turn veggie for nine days. I had to miss the egg curry yesterday :-(
My room mate is a punjabi first year student in arts from Jamshedpur and she has a BF who stays right opposite to our pg. So most of the time she is not in pg, she is out with her bf.
I've to travel 6km everyday to hospital for my physio. Doctors are kind of ok, let’s see whats more stored in.
Days just flies and during night I get busy killing bed bugs. Finally got my bed and mattress changed. Today instead of bugs I saw two tiny cockroaches on my wall. Killed them too... Katilana Nidz Lol.
Not following IPL instead I’m hooked up with FRIENDS and BOOKS.
B'lore doesn't have the same all rounder good weather these days. It’s freaking hot.
I miss Kolkata for its delicious food. Chai samosa, rolls, chats of vardan rd, Dinner n drinks with Rahul and Varun but nothing like ghee rice of Empire hotel in B’lore. I've to deal with cribby auto drivers everyday here. Sucks. Every place has its both good and bad thing stored. Its better i cherish the good side of it. I miss rd cuz of the places I've been with him here. I still have my college friends here to rock my life.
Some school friends are planning get together in Nepal during Dashera but I like to go home in Diwali let’s see.

What’s in my head is what I write

 

Dont feel like studying, dont feel like exercising the Spanish course. I don’t know what to do. I am just bored. Cutting down from internet, cutting down from online chatting. I feel I should spend some time being with myself. Some angers in me, some frustration doesn't seem to go. I guess I should wait till 11th March, change in place and people with make a difference.

Mom is counting days on her finger tips, she is so badly longing to go back home. 11th March and then she flies back home. This time she has to travel alone cuz every time I was there to accompany her. Adding to that its a break journey, she has to change her flight in Kolkata though its of same airline, Spice Jet. She has already lost the habit of travelling by train.

Finally I am going to wear All star shoes. I was planning to buy it yesterday, but cuz of my bad Holi-state I couldn’t go shop. All star have always been a “must have” on my list. Specially Nepalese  are crazy about Converse.

In college time it used to be the most comfortable things to wear cuz colour of shoes doesn't need to match up with what you are wearing. Of course you cant wear All Star on Kurtas, or with girlish tops but with jeans and normal Ts its the perfect wear.

I am back to my feet. I have started walking though the foot drop hasn't gone. I have to work really hard, which means exercise a lot  :-| how much I hate doing that.

Two months past in B’lore and I did nothing. I could have done  things but it didn't work but. I always like doing something productive, like I utilised ideal time learning something like dance, (I had join Salsa with RD before) doing some event and promotion work to earn extra bucks for pocket money and later went shopping and partied hard.

Can’t wait to go shopping. Some days back I tried my cousin’s sexy clothes (those were so MY kinda clothes). When i showed it to mom, she was like “ye bhi koi kapde  hai .. chii “ haha she doesn't like halter tops and short tops. So I have decided not to go shopping with mom but will go with my cousin.

Mom is carving so much to go for My name is khan. I know it is not a great watch but I am left with no option. My sister went to watch KCK and she hated the movie. She said, it’s not any thing new. many English movies are based on KCK. I didn’t know KCK is a thriller movie but i still want to watch it once for Farhan.

Something u can read -- 
Woman shares abortion experience live on Twitter, YouTube, http://bit.ly/d4VcCI

So many things to say..

Finally i got songs of My name is Khan, Karthik calling karthik and Ishqiya On my Itune :D

I

I wonder why is it KartHik? Another Southie name?? Shouldn’t it be Kartik (rolling eyes)

Ok as for updates all of you must be already knowing that I had a surgery some days back. If not you should know about Dear Me. Click here for details.

Thank God I am discharged from the hospital. Karti bhi kya waha, No handsome Doctor, Not even Pretty Nurse to eye on :-w (Jumps, Ouch I forgot I am not suppose to Jump :P)

Hospital food was so bad that my mom preferred eating Lays and Goodday Biscuits for lunch .

One fine Morning the sister came to gimme sponge bath, I requested her to gimme head bath too as I can;t stand oily hair. She had great difficulty giving me head bath, still she should be thankful cause as a patient I was so corporative. So damn corporative that at the end she poured one cold mug water on my hair and I screamed at her.

I am good at it. Ask me to call a person to take his/her class .. You see How I do :P

I finally blocked Farmville from FB (yes yes I used to play that but I m saturated)

And Don Mangal (Mafia) is dead too .. She is now become a zoo keeper :P (another game in FB)

I tried playing scrabble in FB but got bored cause in two player the other player takes too much time to respond.

I like UNO :P

I tried learning Poker too but I think Flash is interesting. 

Good time pass for some1 wella like me.

I am glad Chriz Wrote about Red Undie again :P I love Red Undies :P

He’s on the house gyaan says, we should wash our Undie nahi toh Dogs will compel you to buy new one. Why to waste money in buying a new one, rather lets wash it on time and save money and party :P Ek beer to bantahai. Cheers.

I feel bad that I forgot my Spanish nootbook back in Nepal :( I could have resume my class other wise.

Since B’lore is warm as usual my mom has been telling everyone on phone when she has conversation to someone in Nepal or Calcutta or Siliguri “yaha toh thand ekdum nahi hai, ekdum acha hai mausam”.

Ah I think I should come to B’lore every winter as I hate Winters.

The doctor in Hospital said that he had 10 cases of road accidents of people going or coming back from Nandi hill every month. I was astonished and so was mom. People know it’s Risky to ride in hill station when it is so God damn foggy, but still they don’t listen.

My hands still pains Cause of Injection. Thank God I am on tablets now :)

The doctor was highly satisfied with my operation. I hope to get well soon and dance Tip Tap Toe.. We’ll Party okie ??

Mads completed her Hundred Post!!!! Congrates.. Posto Nahao . Posto Falo ::P

 

What about Names??

New Year was fun. My childhood friend Shweta came for overnight stay. Didi, Shweta and I had Wine at night and wished each other New year. Even Stole dad’s JD :D

BTW my sis name is also Shweta :D too many Shweta-s I know.. Ya there is this weird thing about following the trend in names and people choose to name their kids accordingly. For eg : After kuch kuch hota hai, Rahul was so famous that every other person were naming their kids -- Rahul. My name was common too at that time, I am glad it was common only in my town though.

During attendance in school there were two Nidhi-s : Nidhi Sunil and Nidhi mangal (actually Agarwal). I had to change my surname cause as per the rule; my surname should match my Dad’s ID card. Mangal is our family-title (Gotra). Since childhood, our surname was written as Mangal. May be in this way blessings of Mangal pandey are showered upon us. But after class 10, I had to change it to Agarwal. Mangal is so unique :-w .  There are thousands of Agarwals/ Agrawals.

As a matter of fact, South Indians use their father name as their middle name and even as their last name. Eg.  Nidhi Sunil, Neha Shekhar (these two were actually two hot gals in my class) ahh no no I am straight, but I like admiring pretty gals. Cool ok.. there is nothing wrong in admiring hot girls.. after all it was girl’s school (Bishop Cotton girl’s school, Bangalore). Ladkiyaan hi Dekhti  :P Saheliya –na  !!!

There is one more thing  which is absurd about South Indians, the way they spell their name. It consists of superfluous alphabets during the end of first name. Eg. It’s NOT Deepti they spell it as Deepthi, Seetha instead of Seeta/sita, Ritha for Rita, shruthi for shruti.

Likewise in Nepal, Nepalese carry different accent in pronouncing ‘Sha’. Instead of Sha Nepalese pronounce is Sa. Eg they pronounce Ashish as Asish, Nidhi as Nidi. They also spell B as v. If they have to type bhayo, which means happens, they type Vhayo. Weird isn’t it?

Every language has their differentiation. This surely make them unique from others' name. I have heard Bengali accent. Earlier, I loved Bengali earlier but after staying for one year in Kolkata and having a roommate who only cribbed to her parents in Bengali, I can’t stand Bengali any more, sorry no offense to my Bengali readers.

Btw I love to hear Hyderabadi language. You don’t know how it sounds?? Run to Peter, he is awesome in it.

Urdu sounds so respectful, Love it. Punjabi oh Balle Balle!!!  My dad is big fan of both Punjabi as language and as well as Punjabis. What do you guys have to say about names and Surnames??

P.s I met Rd yesterday .. M so happy. We met after six months. This 26th Jan We’ll complete our Seven years :D He proposed me On Republic day :D

P.P.S – on 5th Jan i am flying to Bangalore Via Delhi. Wish me Luck.

Looking ahead for better

Bad luck kitna kharab hosakta hai kisi ka..

The day I left from Calcutta to Nepal, it was a West Bengal strike.
The day I had exam In Kathmandu it was strike and my exam got canceled. My 6 mtonhs of preparation got wasted cuz I can give this exam only in next June when others will be one level ahead than me.
Strike was announced the day I was returning to my home town, so I had to Postpone my tickets, pay another RS1500.

Two days back I met Dr Ashok Baskota in ktm, the serior orthopedic, a very notorious doctor and I don't know how on earth I forgot my medical report on his desk. Today I had to meet a Plastic Sergent and I was so blank as I had lost my medical report. :(
I somehow went back to hospital and searched and found my reports. Met the Sergent. He explained me everything and said it was dangerous to operate my leg again. I should be happy with what I have. Further intervention can complicate situation.

Explained this things to mom. Made her understand we have to go to my old doctor in Bangalore and talk to him if operation can be dangerous. cuz end of Dec. I m scheduled for a operation .
Life seems to messed up.

Why does negative feelings comes to my mind? Why cant i jsut stay positive. Why do I think what of I will stay what I m today how will I manage and what all things I need to give up.
I want to outshine. I want to be fine. I want to join work again and study and party hard. My mom says I can do anything, I am brave and daring. Yes I am and I dont wanna lose trust and my confidence, my will power and most of all ME.

P.s Tomorrow am flying to my home town from ktm.
will be there in B'lore my end of December. :) seee ya guys.

Gaga over Blore..

I dont know how every one can update their blog so now and then.
Well guys m here in Blore. Came back last week on Thursday, leaving to kolkata tomorrow, another Thursday. Stayed all this while at my friend's Pg ( Neha), It was fun. Went to hard rock cafe .. First day they didnt let us enter cuz they wanted a proof that Neha and I are Above 21. Hello we crossed that stage already. I didnt have my passport and she didnt have a DOB in her employee ID card. shit. Lovely music was going on.. cold play had always been my favorite. We halted till the song was over. After 15 mins of trying we left the place sad and upset. My Phone battery was over, could not call up for further plans.. was frustrated. Same guy from HRC came up to us and Apologized, wanted us in.side the cafe but we Murgis didnt wanted to go back.
Next day I entered the cafe again. I was most welcomed and was sipping beer alone waiting for Blue and Neha. The bar was awesome. I always loved Blue light around the bar, I always preferred to sit next to the bar talking to my friends and the bar tender as well. Love the way they make Cocktails - Mocktails, Love the way they love their job. I wish I was there just for fun :p I wish some one would teach me all the tricks and I master them.
Went to the same old place in St. marks road to Casa picola to have my favorite Penne pasta. this time with my friend Neha .. all this while had been with Rd. I missed him. I called him to say where I was and just felt him right there with me. cross the road to where we were sitting was Bishop Cotton Boys School where Rd used to study, the place cuz of which our love story started.

Had been to friends place for his birthday party. Aakhir main party karne ka Mauka Mil gaya for the party freak like me. It was Blue's Birthday party and told him keep it a house party. Pegs after Pegs and I was all high, after ages. It was fun. all of us got drunk and played truth and dare. Asked the dirtiest questions ever and someone confessed their dirty secrets. The party was over, I don't even remember some faces, but it was fun. next day was bad cuz of hangover.. Lime Juiced and sleep that was all it was made of. Lived every day like no Tomorrow. Loved every one like they are my own.
It was nice time and now I dont feel like leaving this city ..
Tomorrow I will be back to Kolkata, have to catch with the tuition classes I met have to study as I have exams in December, have to resume my physio therapy.. enough Holiday for my leg.
BTW Doctor was really happy to see me.
With no more detail on it, Let me End here..
Yoo Blore will be back in December.. see ya soon. Love u ..
