Why...!!!

If only you could see the tears, In the world you left behind
If only you could hear my heart...Just one more time !!!

Even when I close my eyes..There is an image of your face
Once again I come to realize ...You are a loss that I can't replace

Have been wondering since the day that your were gone
Why did you leave me...
In my heart you were the only...And your memory lives on
Why did you leave me

Walking down the streets...Where our love was young and free
Can't believe just what an empty place..It has come to be !!!

Have been wondering since the day that your were gone
Why did you leave me...

Time will never change the things...that you told me !!!
Why did you leave me..
Why did you leave me..

Painfully pleasurable..

Writing this one post is something i'v been dreading for long ... because it has me trudging back the memory lane....over the path strewn with memories...some sweet ..some sour ..some bitter...but all very dear to me !!

Raah dekhi thi is din ki kab se
Aage ke sapne saja rakhe the naajane kab se

Bade utavle the yaha se jane ko
Zindagi ka agla padav paane ko

Par na jaane kyu...dil mein aj kuch aur ata hai
Waqt ko rokne ko jee chahta hai ..!!


Its just not sinking in ...yet another phase of life has come to an end..and its finally time to set foot in another world. No more classes to attend and more assignments to make ! It was 6 long years ago the day I stepped in this university...I still remember my first day so clearly like it just happened yesterday. The mixed emotions of ..excitement, fear , curiosity and happiness all seem so vivid...and now that it all seems so settled its time to leave.
Our Gang :)

The early pharmacy days were absolute fun...I instantly bonded with people who I can proudly call the best friends I have had till date..


B.Pharmacy Batch 2004-2008



Attending classes was suddenly FUN ... Thanx to you guys..!

OFFICE OFFICE !!! :)


I am sure by now, most of my fellow mates would be longing for that moment where we would be free from the cuffs of education and make our own foray into the corporate world. With the last trimester of college being on, as part of my project I finally got an opportunity to work with a Pharma company as a management trainee and with just more than one month of office I feel I have soo much to share :P

My initial feeling was of excitement, as I was about to embark a valuable opportunity of working in a corporate environment, enabling me to learn new skills and meet new people. Nevertheless, my excitement was also accompanied by nerves as I often wondered with little knowledge and zero experience could I really prove myself. And now that I have been into it I think it certainly doesn't feel any different from the academic world we have been bred in… there is a boss who is as fussy as our teachers and there are colleagues who fill the void for missing classmates..!!!

It sure is adventurous enough to flock into a planet diverse in lock, stock and barrel. Things certainly are to my expectations except for my work at times…and about which I crib as much as possible and as and when I get time. :P I often find myself in weird situations, the labour class and their nasty disgusting comments as I walk past them, in the industrial area...phew !!!! But then in this one month...I’ve learnt a lott...learnt how to mess up things...how to mess up relations...how to mess up my time schedule and lots more ...life isn’t that easy...but then it’s a challenge and you need to keep going ...keep pushing hard...!!!

But now after spending so much time I’ve realized...it’s not such a bad place after all...the work is good...the people are sweet and funny ! And the best part it’s a noisy place...people are always humming...fighting...Joking...Laughing!

Someone once told me...life’s challenges are not meant to paralyse you ..they are to help you discover who you are...and that’s exactly what i am doing...exploring myself...my capabilities...facing the challenges...testing my limits and learning Life!

THIS VALENTINE IS DIFFERENT ....


After a while you learn the subtle differences
Between holding a hand and chaining a soul
And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning
And company doesn't mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
And presents aren't promises !"

The labryrinth of love is like Abhimanyu's Chakravyuha...this is what todays Economic Times said ! And well said indeed...once in love forever in love...is what I believe in. Whether you're together or apart..you just can't cut through the haze...! I am sure at one point of time we'v all behaved crazy..crazy in love..even I have. I did love, got stung, grew older , grew bolder...and realized...Yes Loving is great..but even greater is sharing that love...not just with one 'special person' but with all the special people who make the journey called life worthwhile..It took me time to figure it all out, to make a choice, to do whats right..and now that clouds have lifted...the sun has appeared..LIFE IS GREAT ..LETS CELEBRATE...not just today...but everyday !!! If you really want to show your love...act on it when its least expected...not when society tells you to do it..

Whats your take on valentine's day....Love it or hate it ? Or, are you like me where you could go either way ... :) :)

A very very happy valentine's day to those I love..U know who you are...My family, my friends..friends that are dear, some who are not near...i know you can hear...I give my heart to all of you..

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY...
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY .....
WISHING YOU ALL HAPPINESS ALWAYS....!!!

And yes, needless to mention ...Don't forget to love yourself...don't forget to pamper yourself...don't forget ..each one of us is special...because...

TO LOVE ONESELF...IS THE BEGINNING OF A LIFE TIME ROMANCE...!!

THE RED LETTER DAY



We today celebrate yet another REPUBLIC DAY. How ever, what should worry us is that the 60th Republic Day of the country would also pass of as just another National Holiday ! I somehow dnt understand what is so 'national' about the R-Day celebrations? As the country showcases its military might and vibrant cultural heritage..the question that remains to be answered is that do these celebrations still stir in us the same passion as it did during the days of the freedom struggle, do we still feel enthused or do we just spend another cosy day in the warmth of our rooms?

In the wake of booming economic growth and growing consumerist culture do we still take pride in our national flag which is sold a dozen a dime at traffic junctions all over the country....

Being from an army family, as a child i grew up seeing the Republic Day parade and even today when its been years since i witnessed the celebrations at Rajghat, i think the least we can do is spare some time to think about the contributions and sacrifices made by the great leaders of our country and how we as responsible citizens can contribute our bit in making India a truly Independent Nation ...!!!

LIcK..LiCk...LiCK..!!!


Ever since this birthday of mine ...where i was gifted the maximum number of chocolates ever ...i have been so lost in this dark world...


"Chocolate is food of the Gods"

That is how a Swiss botanist labeled it centuries ago, when he was blessed with his first taste...
I personally love chocolates..n though fully aware about the adverse effects I have not in the least been persuaded to lay down this chocolate habit !Yet, I try not to let my love of chocolates overtake me.... :) :)
I have restricted myself to having chocolates very rarely...specially wen am upset ! A chocolate is always around in my room to satisfy a random urge...to say a "Thankyou" or "Happy Bday " or just to take a nibble !!!! Yes I am chocolate crazy but i have my own standards....I must eat only the BEST ! And rite now ...i am enjoying the goodness of BOURNVILLE AND FERRERO! Yummmmmmm...


Did i make your mouth water yet...???
Oh ...C'mon ....go treat yourself !!!  :) :)

WE CARE....!!!! Spread the wings of breast cancer awareness.. !

A day or two ago wen i first received this message in my Facebook inbox i was a lil puzzled...
Some fun is going on…. just write the color of your bra in your status. Just the color, nothing else. It will be neat to see if this will spread the wings of breast cancer awareness. It will be fun to see how long it takes before people wonder why all the girls have a color in their status…
A little apprehensive...and a little amused..! But then within just a couple of hours i could see all my girl frends have colors as their status messages..and lo .. there was i with BLACK as my status message. Usually i do not overshare, most of us dnt ..but when it is for a good cause..why stay behind !

The campaign has marked the first successful use of Facebook status updates with very few words to send a powerful message across.. the message about BREAST CANCER AWARENESS.
Breast cancer, is one form of cancer that is easily curable if diagnosed in the early stages...and lack of awareness is one of the major reasons for its spread. And the disease is not uncommon ...one n every 9 women is affected ! So if this campaign helps even one woman ...just one ..is it not worth the effort ?
The campaign has been a landmark in viral marketing and has served as a fast, free and fun way for women to raise awareness about breast cancer and remind other women to get themselves examined....The thought of the disease crossed our minds more than, on any other normal day and even though it fell on deaf ears ..it helped many even if just for a few moments.
Simultaneously...the back lash against the campaign has also started wd hate groups and grps like i dnt want to know the color of your bra being started...but frends...there is a cause associated with it ...and the least we can do is spread awareness !
So girls gear up and jopin the campaign :)

ExTRA FaIRNeSS To ThE FaIR SEX !!!!!



Well, though i am normally associated with extreme feminsim and "male bashing" statements...this time i am here to raise concerns over the recent judgement passed by an apex court where they said that " the courts could have faith on any girl or woman in the country who seeks justice against sexual assault !"
If we can talk so much about gender equality these days why have gender biased laws that are skewed towards women ...there are already many laws to protect the interests of women ...laws against domestic violence, dowry, female feticide, we have reservations for the girl child, the single girl child..the women reservation bill and what not ...
On one hand these laws confer protection on women on the other hand they confer undue power to abuse men on women. We already have so many genuine cases illustrating the rampant misuse of the Dowry Law by unscrupulous women to extort money and harass their husband’s entire extended family. So how can we gurantee that women who complain against sexual abuse shall not be misusing this power ??? Such laws would only continue to perpetuate gender discrimination and not put an end to it ! After all who says men can't be abused...???? LOL !
In my opinion, the Indian government has done enough to support structures for women who want to launch violence or harassment complaints, and make the criminal justice system, particularly the police, more gender sensitive and now its time to wait and watch before passing more judgements in favor of women, lest this law becomes yet another misguided attempt to enact legislation to grant women legal supremacy over men and to create a society where men are deprived of their rights...!!!!
