My Bro's b'day

1 People commented...
Today my younger brother turned 25 :-0... its line a major mile stone in any body life.... many do quote "It the time which do help a person do decide, where he would like to be or what he would like to be"...

If you personally ask me... my mind is still filled with clouds and myself i am not able to foresee where I would like myself be in due course of time....

BTW why am I talking abt my self....

Today at 10:45am (EST) my brother so send's me a message it read something like this "Bhai do call me tonight mera b'day hai :-;"

This was it, i had no idea why do he had to remind me to wish him on his b'day... its better some questions are un answered....


Okay no is getting anything to guess who is who :-0
4 years back when i been to visit by nani, she had this photo framed and nicely placed
I assume i am 4.5 or may be 5 in this and my brother is a year or year & a half















This is the cake which i baked some 30 min back... and this is my all means the first cake which i attempted to prepare....

Sketch : III (My fascination is still on

1 People commented...
Okay, i am still able to survive after the bug named "sketching" which infected me a month back... at that time i was under influence that... its just another passing fascination... which will run away as day goes by... but its still on.... Hmmm this time... i did try to sketch "Common Man"... yup its the same which came to life first in 1958 by the famous cartoonist RK Laxman....




1. This is the first one which is attempted.... and was successful in my term after couple of attempts and some time... This image reminds me of the add "Keep Walking" (Johnnie Walker)














.

2. After the first one... i might read many cartoon strips which RK Laxman used to publish in "Times OF India"... This one i liked a lot... it the typical Netagiri wala..



















3. This one... while we were coming back to our desk after a coffee break... some paper napkins were left on the "Manish" desk this is what happened :-0


















4. Okay the same story, second day.... i ended up with this one... as it was raining earlier in the day... so our "Common Man" has to use umbrella to go for a coffee break.... :-0

What a great weekend it was….

0 People commented...
This weekend, one of my dear friends were moving to a bigger and a beautiful apartment…
And as this apartment also do come with a much bigger rule book then the house itself… first hurdle was that they do have strict time line when people are to move… no move over weekend. No move after 5pm… gosh it’s like a strict military rule…. As we had big rulebook to follow… I had taken a day off from work and was all set to help my friends in their shifting.

Do things started from Thursday evening, I went directly to their place, and helped then packing things in carton so we called it a day end at 2:30am and with couple of beers…

The big move day “Friday”… all weather channels were screaming their lungs out that it will rain crazily… we all were tensed. Finally the movers showed up by 11:30 and we were all loading and done and just prying “let it not rain, let it not rain”… by 3:00 the new apartment was piled with 20+carton and furniture all over the place and it did not rain all this time :-0

In addition… just then I had to login for office work and was down with that for 3+ hours…

Then we had a herculean task of unpacking and getting things in place… and the big question was still un-answered… “Where will be the TV placed?” after lot of discussion and moving things hear and their we managed to get the best placement (I guess we are not again re aligning the layout coming weekend hehehe)

So Friday evening Hall was set in and will had all our gang reached.. and the party started… more beer till 3am :-0

Day 2:
We had to wrap up the old apartment.. and hand that over… it was an another big thing… and in between all this we planned that cook dinner for our self and ended up with the task… and how can we not watch the new Hindi movie “Love Aaj Kaal”… I actually went only to admire all the ‘nakras & adaye’ (fun act & looks) of “Deepika”.. but ended up watching “Harleen Kaur”… (next day I came to knew that she is a Brazilian mode… but still she was amazing).
We came back to the den and the party continued till 2am…

Day 3:
Its Sunday… the fun and party spirit was still in the air, we planned to had a big feast… we cooked lunch and by the time we had it was 5pm. So the long move and the 72 hour stretch party came to an end by 8pm we all were being haunted by the though of Monday morning office…
