To That Special Person In My Life

Attending these marriage reception's is such a bother and boring(specially when you don't have a single clue of who the Bride or Groom is!!)
One such event which I had to attend... and it was then I came to know such relatives exist in my family..(I still cant figure out how they are related!!!!! ooppsss...).What pesters a lot is I need to keep SMILING at every stranger( my relatives) when ever my mom gives a brief introduction about them(so that is how they are related to me!!) and trot comes their question what I am doing and where I got placed (mind you..every final year engineering student needs to get placed in some company in order to avoid this embarrassing moment!!) and after these brief intro about my well being..the gossip session starts(whose who is doing what now... currently!!!)..wonder how they while away their time in these minuscule talks!!
I felt horribly out of place for quite sum time..UNTIL I MET HER!!!!
Her smile..(as sweet as a vanilla ice-cream)..blows me down!!!
SHE came close to me..and chirpily laid her hands (which bore a set of beautiful golden bangles matching her Saree well) on my shoulder!! Her Eyes Sparkling With Happiness (its been days since we met each other)..Her Lips Struggling To Say My Name. Her Green Pastel Saree Glistened in her Smile...I quickly gave her a tight hug.. her face blushed..her cheeks went red... she managed to push me aside with her tender arms!!!(both were happy ever!!).. She was looking gorgeous (she is amazing when she smile.. almost looks twenty year younger than her age!!!!)
We soon went into OUR WORLD..a world which only we understand (my god.. the way her eyes twinkled!!)... She adores me.. and so do I.. But I think she loves me more than I do... Coz SHE IS MY GRANDMOTHER!!!

BEING A SPORT!!!

The kind of respect you get being an athlete is out of the world experience.. trust me I have never felt this contented as for the past couple of days (wearing those jerseys and roaming around, hundreds of eyes brewing around you and gossips lingering around us as we pass!!)... and calling ourselves proudly.. We are SPORTSPERSON (at last!!)


I am in my basket ball team as well as in throw ball team for my college.. which recently participated in state level tournament!!Yeah! We lost.. but still we played well (given the lack of practice.. we put up a great show!!)...Every one in the team put in best of their efforts(and we can say that again)!! As far as game is concerned The Better Team WON!!


Talking about team.. those petty moments when you pat each other when you score a point.. or give that ugly stare when your mate has lost one..are a boggy-wog!!!!There are rules.. unwritten rules.. which player starts understanding once they get starting..which does not require words.. just a glance.. just a nod.. and you get through their mind!!and the aftermath of the match is all the more effective than the match( as if our faults were not known during the play.. we have long sessions of omg!!!What Actually Went Wrong!!!).. We speak a lot.. during these constructive sessions.. celebrating the tiny happiness which we shared during the game...huge regret( on probably we should have changed our strategy.. probably it was not our day!! .. blah-blah).. and simultaneously draining in the hot coffee( only god knows how much caffeine went into our system!!) Meanwhile I learnt an important lesson to take back home.. its not about winning. its not losing.. its about playing!! (playing for passion is altogether different)...its about being in the team.. its about cheering ourselves when we are low.. its about co-ordination.. its about the respect which we have for our mates.. its about playing it clean...well its about BEING A SPORT!
