This time when mom said I have to go to native felt it little boring but planned to go to Chamundi hills my fav spot in Mysore.So agreed I shall go on Thursday afternoon and comeback on Saturday after going to hills .
Thursday after Church and Sai Baba Mandir I left at 12:45PM from home. I went to cyber cafe checked my mails and then left to Majestic.Heavy traffic at Diary circle..stuck up for 45 min and reached Majestic at 2:45PM almost two hours .searched for Mysore bus and got in..Dint find window seat.so had to adjust to will aside seat .
3 Hours passed away easily talking to the person beside me...generally about Mysore.Climate work etc etc..
finally reached mysore and went to search hotel to hog something light but seeing the hotel dint feel like..Going to Green Leaf is way tooo far..packed some gifts and sweets for my aunt and cousins and Puni and jaanu (neighbouring kids at native).I reached native at 8:00PM and next day finished my work and started off to Mysore to my aunts place.
I left at 6:00PM from native.One good thing that I don't have mobile is nobody can track me where I am .
atleast I am free of all unwanted questions.While travelling back the bus was half empty. My mind started going to past ..Those days which I spent in Mysore a year and two months...Mind started wondering of all things I did.
My two houses in Mysore..These words only say about my attachment with Mysore..I would always say My place My house in Mysore..It shows so much closeness between me and that place..Though its my native before my stay never felt that closeness.
The house near to chechi's mess the haunted house as I always refer it to..My Abhishek Circle house.The temples in Surya Bakery and Vijayanagar and age old temple near the lake and prashantha ganapathi temple, Vontikoppal Temple and Chandramouli temple at the end of KD road....

Myself and Lakshmi roaming at Vijayanagar Chat Centre area and benne masale at Davanagere Dosa Stall, Pepper Capsicum curry at Madhu's veg., Subway rolls , Pizza Cornerat KD road..Ummmmmmmmmmm Mouth watering
Our shopping at Discount world, Food world Fab city , Fab India shopping and West Zone Casual shopping and Urs Road where we brought our TV and Did shopping for Sundari's marriage without intervention from any elders..Bombay Chat Centre in Urs road.. Visiting Mysore Silk Factory....Sayyaji rao road
Latenights at Planet X , Punjabi Dhaba, and seniors place visit and our Dinner..latenight project party arranged by me at Metropole , Sandesh The Prince , Lunch at The monarch and Grand Maurya..
Every Thursday fasting and going to Infant Jesus and Sai Baba Mandir during lunch break....accompanying my junior to Spider man 3 and Mungaaru Male...and while returning from Movie falling from bike at the main road near Suburb Bus stand..Suburb Bus stand always my decision point..When I come back from Bangalore , I stand there and decide at 5 in the evening whether to go to room or to Chamundi Hills..Then always deciding on Chamundi Hills
My friends from blore coming to Mysore to see me and we all having party at my place Afy Najju sudha Rachel Deepika Kumu....All halla gullas and hustles bustles at home and then going to Balmuri falls ..Me and Afy competing in eating Pineapple slices sold there..Solomon Sindhu Vishwa Anoop Indu and me shahid and Deepa going to Balmuri and Chamundi in july on the birthday of the lordess....
We all room mates going to Somnathpura temple changing 3 buses..Hiking was a good exp,Sundari and me visiting Old age and Orphanage frequently.
Oh man thinking of all these I miss you Mysore..
Celebrating Preetham's birthday Indu;'s birthday,Arjuns birthday..Myself Indu and Arjun travinelling from Mysore for deepavali sitting at the door and getting excited whenever the train passed over the Paschimvahini bridge and Canals..awesommeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee the exp was...
My Worst birthday, Nov 4th 2007, Oct 5th 6th Nov 19th , Jan 1st 2008 Jan 16th 2008.. Dec 19th 2007, One day travels to Srirangapatna , Nanjangood,Jan 1st after fight to Chamundi...Mysore to bangalore Then to Chennai and Kanchipuram and from there to Pondi..for my friends marriage..Encounter with Real estate agent ,courtesy by my roomies ..and me going to a shock state for 3 hours...Mr Maadegowda..Auto driver who helped me and roomies from this situation I shall never forget him..
Going Bopy's with a group of friends and feeling uneasy and taking leave from them all and back to my room late night dinner at Punjabi restaurant with my senior and get together at seniors place..
Friends like Arjun Preetham Priyanka Dileep Sundari and Syed......
While I was thinking all this I remembered Maadegowda uncle the auto driver from abhishek circle who had helped me several times..When I was sick for a month he took me to hospital , got me breakfast and medicines and when I was in any nook and corner of mysore He came there just by a single call and would pick me up..More than a father he had taken care..When real estate agents drunk and came near my house in LK nagar and created nuisance he had strictly told not to trouble me and my roomies if not he needs to face consequences...Whenever I wanted to go to any temple or any where in Mysore would guide me and wouldnt charge more..like other auto guys....I am really grateful to him...When I reached Aishwarya petrol bunk , I immediately thought let me make use of this narrow time to meet this person.. got down there and went to Infant Jesus Church and from there took rick to Abhishek circle..On way bought a shirt to Uncle and reached abhishek circle at 7:15PM..But there found he had gone to some other place....Waited there for 15 min and handed over to another auto guy..who recognised me as soon as he saw me..I told him to had over the shirt to uncle and I shall call him tomorrow...
I left from their unhappy....As when I saw the Vijayanagar and abhishek circle area.. tear rolled down from my eyes...A pain evoked in my heart..First time in my life I regretted my decision..
I quit Infy not for money not for transfer fearing somebody....I could have over come all those fears and stayed I felt....but its done....I wanted to get back to mysore ..My life My idealogies...My freedom and its all I.....but learnt the factor WE here.......I realised true colors of many friends here..But never regretted anything in my life ..my two regrets are , hurting somebody with all my knowledge where even I was helpless....and quitting Infy Mysore....I never regretted losing a friend , or slapping somebody with full fury, or getting angry at my mom and bro..but I regretted this decision.....
Whenever I went to Mysore it was a day or two a week s trip and nothing else but this time I came back to Bangalore with a heavy heart..
After this went to Ramaswamy circle from their to lower court and KG koppalu and to Asha Usha aunties house..Sunil my second cousin greeted with big smile..My twin aunts Asha and Usha aunts hugged and greeted..Anil who was coming from Bangalore that day after work called on to aunts mobile and told me to get ready for a long drive and to Planet X....I got ready , me Sunil and Anil left out to bannur road and drove for an hour and then to Planet X...Bowled ..dint enjoy the alley here both my cousins went to Go KART....
We were back after 11 and slept tired that night...
I woke up at 5:00 in the morning and got ready to go to Chamundi..Ani woke up at 6:30 by then I was helping Usha aunty for breakfast.....We had breakfast and left at 7:30..Saraswathipuram , Ballal Circle, Vidyaranya puram and reached the steps entrance of Chamundi hills. on his pulsar...We both started climbing the steps...after 200 steps I started gasping for breath..was sooooooooooo tired...I was climbing hill after two years...Before I used to finish it by 25 min ..This time took 45 min...Ani climbed easily..I stopped at the rock where we can sit and view the entire mysore after 800 steps...I missed my cell now.which I had thrown off in anger...I wanted to take few pics..Ani also had not bought his cell...We went up and finished darshana and came down again...while getting down me and ani both sat on that rock and started talking about his job in toyota and about his savings etc.....advise and suggestion s went on...Ani promised me to take on the hill on my next visit at late night.....He said "Akka, stay back today tomorrow we shall go to Gopalaswamy hills "...but I had to come back and couldnt afford to lose one more days tuition..So we came back....at 9:30 down..I came back and got Into Tippu Express at 11:00 and started reading Geetanjali.....By RN Tagore..Felt very good..
"The market day is over and work is all done for the busy. Those who came to call me in vain have gone back in anger. I am only waiting for love to give myself up at last into his hands. "
When the train left at 11:00 said goodbye to mysore with heavy heart...Good BYE and miss you mysore....

Rakshabandhan....Raakhi
As you know today is Raakhi,....This is to write about my different experiences about Raakhi festival till now.
First Raakhi festival was in 1992' . For me then dint know what 's it all about? Mom asked me to buy raakhi and tie to my bro. Mom gave me 1 rupee. I went and brougt two raakhi's of 25 paise each. I used to be big time kunjoos.. By the way I brought two cos 1 for my brother and 1 for my doggie.
Mom saw that and she asked how much I paid it , I said 25 paise each.She asked me why. I said one for Kiran and 1 for my doggie Blacky.She scolded me telling your bro will take care of you when you are in trouble. He wil always help you and guide you should tie him.I said rather than my bro my doggie will guard me well. Its like that mom says something I never accept it without arguement..Be it about her family or anything .We will have arguements.
After that had series of people whom I tied rakhi, anil anna, babu anna, vinay , kiran , Shreyu and Rasagnya,
Shreyu and Rasagnya I never used to miss but from last 3 years I am not able to visit them . Rasagnya is now in US with his Studies and Shreyu MBBS and he comes very late and I cant go to HSR layout at that time..Aunt will ask me to stay back.
The year 2004, It was about 11 months me joining Infy..I got moved from Linksys Tech Support to Mortgage team Fairbank(SPS ).I took hell lot of raakhis that day to office..Sudeep, Bob, Rana, Chucks, Tarun, karthik,saketh,Jammy, Kashif,Vinayak and Shashi.Shashi was on leave that day. I went to each ones cubicle and tied them Rakhi..The more fuss was created by Maamu..
All other girls were laughing at me.Maamu was like No other than Tanuj and Thanmay I dnt allow anyone to tie Raakhi..I was like Please bhai Please bhai...I tied him finally after two hours of pleading..Now also my team mates call me as SISTER of payoffs.. and Few say U did a mistake by tieing raakhi if not we would be married now.hehehe they are just kidding.They really dont mean it..
Other than them I had already few brothers at Infy Sajesh Chetta, Saru, Ananda, Shashikumar TR, Raman, Hariprasad.HariSubramaniam, Aman,,Hariprasad was my guide, He was always like get into network field and he advised so much...
Next year was even more brothers were added Noby Martin Sampath Kiran Manu etc etc....Richard..
All my team girls challenged me once to tie rakhi to Chucks my manager..It was friday also , walking down from casa to building number 26 I met chucks..I just said Chucks I wanna tie Rakhi...Chucks said
" le Baandh" Hehe my team girls were wonderstruck cos I did wat was challenged..We were pestering other two girls to tie raakhi.
Almost till 2006 Hari used to come near Infyr everyyear on rakhi festival and I used to tie him..
Last year what happened was, I was ready with raakhi to tie it to my bro, but early morning he fought with me and I said "get lost " I wont tie you and I dint tie.
I bought Rakhi yesterday , but morning I was late in taking bath so bro left early. Evening when he came I was ready to tie . He freshened up and sat . I did aarthi and tilak and he immediately he took raaki in his hand and said show me "ma I will tie it your hand and you bless me..I need your protection and guard rather than you need mine." We all started laughing .....I tied him and took blessings from him.
One more thing silly but yet strictly followed whom ever I tie Raakhi my rakhi should be first..:)

Nenapinangaladinda: St Johns me and dad
Nenapinangaladinda: St Johns me and dad: "Today morning I went to St Johns hospital to visit my friend.I hate going to hospitals and scared of injections .The word hospital itself ma..."
Relationships and pain.....
any a time I have questioned myself why do relationships hurt, be it a family , friends or love and few undefined relationships."Man is a knot into which relationships are tied"
Below mentioned lines from my diary always put ,me into deep thoughts.
"There's one sad truth in life I've found
While journeying east and west -
The only folks we really wound
Are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best."
For very few people I would turn back again and say a Hi again even after they leave me.Its for my family , and a few friends.Might be couple of them, who receive my attention.I don't wanna lose them.I don't care my ego self respect for them ,Shilpa , Loch , Najju and few more...I cant just don't go away from them and if any fight happens also I know I wouldn't let them go anytime.Now I am equally disturbed ad to losing some one who really means something to me just like my other friends.Sometimes feel I am disturbing and wanna leave everything as it is , but the void space in me keeps on taunting m, Its worthy to let it go off.Is the relationships worth more or the person who is lucky that I dont wanna lose them .Its my ego which says the persons is lucky but I know myself its the relationship worthy more than anything in the world.
But why dont people understand or is that they are confused souls , or is they look for profit in all relationship or the outcomes of any relationships.Why dont they understand whats the use in telling"I am sorry " and "I love you " when the other is in Coffin or almost telling GOOD BYE from heart .."Present your family and friends with their eulogies now - they won't be able to hear how much you love them and appreciate them from inside the coffin. "
I always speak my heart away .
Be it the worst also.I Confide with few people and Confess to whom I have done wrong. But Why it happens always the things and people I love the most hate me or go away from me .I haven't hurt anyone to that extent until they have but still ...Do I deserve negligence from people whom I love the most.....Be it my family or my friends..................
I am a person with big time attitude......Headstrong Egositic....but if am wrong I accept my mistake be it worst also....

I am a carefree person who damn care if anybody left me and went and I don't give a sigh . I would say they lose a best person in the world(Am quite headstrong huh Dont 't mind;)) .
Yeah its true, I just think if people try ignoring me I also neglect them.But its not the same with all Why is it?

Me and PETS
Every Tuesdays when I accompany mom to Banashankari temple used to feel tired to travel in that 7 'D' bus till Banashankari temple.After that to light lamps in Rahukalam had to move in that Long queue was a night mare to me.But one relaxing idea in this whole trip was the WELL in the temple premises which had two turtles in it.Me and Bro always used to peep into the well to watch those turtles swimming.
From here my journey of getting fascinated with any animal I see started.After this my garden had earthworms, Ants very cute birds which visit my garden early morning and with those colorful butterflies.Till date I dont mind running behind those colorful butterflies to watch them but I dont catch them :) .Gypsy , Silky the huge dogs in my best friends house were my friends .After they passed away it was Ravi a white Pom which they got.I dont know why he dint like and always used to bark at me. Except him no other dog has barked at me .
July 11 th 1992 a black toddler Pom , he was just a month old came to my house.Very scared he was to see us all at a new place. I took him on my lap and started caressing him.He was my sweet sweet blacky and for my parents TIPPU. I was then in 5th Std.I loved him a lot and so my family also.My dad at first sight dint like him as he was black .But I told dad I need him.Dad agreed..the first two nights was hectic with blacky feeling insecured in dark and he wanted all of us around and he had destroyed the little home we had prepared for him.Finally I took him on my bed cuddled him beside me.He dint like it .He went to the other side of the bed and made my ankles as pillow and slept.So that became his permanent Sleeping home.
Bro trained him well and we all played with him.While playing one day on terrace with him , by mistake his teeth got into my ankles.I was scared to tell at home.So took a bit spirit and wipe on that hurt,but forgot to throw the cotton and it became the proof and was on the table.Dad came home and he saw that and asked bro and me,We both denied it. Then finally dad got angry and I sensed it and accepted it a small hurt while playing with blacky. I was scared my parents will hold blacky reason and send him away .I dint wanted that to happen. I was always an introvert and very few people know me completely and I dont trust anyone so easily.But if I trust and like someone then would be ready to do anything to them.
My Blacky was one such thing in my life whom I never wanted to lose.Dad finally agreed that he wont send him away and my injection series around my naval started and no fried items. I love Bajji that too chilli bajji is my favourite.My family prepared this and ate after I slept off. Next day when I woke up I knew they had prepared and started crying for it and I held blacky responsible for me.he with his cute grey adorable eyes was looking at me innocently when I was scolding him.I felt so bad.I took him in my lap and hugged him .
One day it was tuesday and mom as usual had been to temple and I came home at 4:30PM.I get the key from my neighbour and open the gate . Wonderstruck blacky is outside the house in the shelf that is attached to Room's Windows.He is sitting there and making wierd noises boowmmmmmmmmmmm wowmmmmmmmmm.......So helpless he was feeling as the cute little one was scared to jump down..

Then finally dad got angry and I sensed it and accepted it a small hurt while playing with blacky. I was scared my parents will hold blacky reason and send him away .I dint wanted that to happen. I was always an introvert and very few people know me completely and I dont trust anyone so easily.But if I trust and like someone then would be ready to do anything to them.
My Blacky was one such thing in my life whom I never wanted to lose.Dad finally agreed that he wont send him away and my injection series around my naval started and no fried items. I love Bajji that too chilli bajji is my favourite.My family prepared this and ate after I slept off. Next day when I woke up I knew they had prepared and started crying for it and I held blacky responsible for me.he with his cute grey adorable eyes was looking at me innocently when I was scolding him.I felt so bad.I took him in my lap and hugged him .
One day it was tuesday and mom as usual had been to temple and I came home at 4:30PM.I get the key from my neighbour and open the gate . Wonderstruck blacky is outside the house in the shelf that is attached to Room's Windows.He is sitting there and making wierd noises boowmmmmmmmmmmm wowmmmmmmmmm.......So helpless he was feeling as the cute little one was scared to jump down..

St Johns me and dad
Today morning I went to St Johns hospital to visit my friend.I hate going to hospitals and scared of injections .The word hospital itself makes me get on my nerves.That too St Johns I hate it. If there could be one movie, directed by me or story written by me, that would on St Johns..I HATE ST JOHNs would be the movie name. For lots of people its the saviour, like temple...a holy place... including my dad, as he was brought back from his death BED can be said.
I have been a weak child in my childhood days till 1989 continuously admitted every year St Johns.In between during 1992 -1993 I was getting treated in St johns for my Kidney weakness problem..Some Red round tablets were suggested.I need to be careful about it but I am too careless..
I got admitted in the year again in 1998 just a month before my exams...last time I was admitted was in 2009 November during my friends marriage , after a cystometagraphy test and then for CYSTS ( Multiple CYSTS) and other complications due to some side effects of tablets....
As a child when I was admitted , I used walk around the corridors with my dad with the glucose needle inserted in my hand and that hand held high so tat nobody can touch that hand by mistake.Myself and dad walking along the corridors after my Lunch & dinner and sometimes to Chapel inside the hospital and to the book shop in the hospital itself to get color pencils and coloring book for my time pass and also the story books .This is where my reading habit got a start.
All the security guards had become my friends and they had given us special permission for me and dad walk around the hospital grounds and garden.Everyday it was routine that I light the candle infront of the Jesus outside the hospital. This was the beginning where I forgot the caste , Religion and creed and thought all god is one.
My dad my best friend be it for drinking coffee at Janata hotel or at the hospital Paediatric Ward.In 1989 it was me in Jan got admitted during Sankranthi festival , in october during deepawali dad for his URNEA operation and in december during christmas bro was admitted. Then I was just 7 year Old.When Bro got admitted I was JEALOUS why I am not admitted now instead of in Jan .Reason being bro got gift for christmas from Santa Claus a Red Ball to play with it. I wished I would get a doll then . Whatever chocolates was given I had GULUMd it everyday during those 7 days..
Today's scene was, I saw a kid of 5 year old and the dad holding the kid in his arms and the baby had glucose needle inserted in her wrist.I remembered the scene where myself and dad were walking that way and I used to be so excited with those needles inserted in my hand.
I had tears ....We all have our own negativities...So my dad also .I do fight When I see him wrong but yet..
I love you dad for being such an wonderful father and best friend..You are THEeeeee BEST FATHER.

I called my friend Naj and said what happened, he's like fully asking how am I and all the stuffs and when I said am roaming around with blotted carbon print eye....He was like some defect in me..Usually girls sit hiding their face at this situation and me roaming around...Felt Like "Million Dollar Baby" ,,,,,

Who cares for all the comments..To hell with the comments.. Me My work my life......Yippppeeee am strong ( very much head strong I am, aint I ? ) ......me in cubicle as usual listening to songs on my system and working on MOAI project...

3) Gilli Dandu ( Chinni dandu ) :
As a Kid till my 4th class had no other friends than brother..Playing with Brother and his friends,lunch with brother and his friends..So all his friends were my friends..I was in 4th std me bro and his friends were playing chinni daandu ..
Vinay was the one to hit the gilli and all of us me, bro, kiran , sathish and others to field for gilli..hit by Vinay.
Vinay hit the gilli hard...high up it flew ..straight it flew and hit my eye as I was about to catch...Shhhhhhhhhucks....JUST MISS....CATCH and my eye both.......it hit between my nose and eye....and left a mark there..
Bro came running and scolded Vinay ....so sad..!!!....a small scar was there...Now me and bro very scared about mom...Me cos got hurt while playing with guys, which mom hates like anything...and bro scared for always taking me to play with him and his friends..
Some how didnt speak to anyone till next day...Next day heart thumping against my ribs...cos if mom would see that mark we both are dead..Quick think soon Rooopa my mind said...Started filling ink into my fountain pen..took a drop of ink and smeared it on the scar near to my eye..
Went before for combing my hair and as she parted my hair in the mid she asked what happened and why ink got smeared..I acted as if I dint know and told am gonna wash it..
Uufffffffffffffffff !!! saved... Got ready and went to school after removing the mark..
Next day came and same issue again.. again I smeared the ink on my face and got saved..Evening as soon as I came back from school my puppy came to greet and I picked him up in my hands and e was wagging his tail and trying to lick my face..Mom scolded "let him down u get him all over ur body ".....I left him down and mom noticed that scar on my face and started usual inquiries.
Finally Mom saw it and blasted .....without an end....My world my dads hugs and laps and My mom's scoldings and my bro's pampering and fighting and doggies love.......MUAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, I love my family..

Guess What happened next? My central Left Incisor had broken to half.. Oh God...I collected all the pieces of my Poor little incisor and threw it away..Thinking Tooth fairy wil give me back my broken tooth in few days.
I was scared what to tell at home , stopped laughing, came home silently took my book for 8th std and started studying summer holidays even before school started.Mom came home, she asked me did I feed my doggy.. I bent my head down and answered yes I did.. From then for 3 days my laughs and giggling had stopped and I spoke very little,just like answering whenever asked only...All were amazed at home thinking am not well.Dad came to me asking if I was not well needed to go to a doctor.Mom was very happy to see me as DECENT cute with studying and helping at home.Hehehe none of them knew why I was transformed from a porkey to so called DECENT kid...
Then came the ICE BREAK Session at my house 3rd day after my tooth break, it started acheing , I went to mom called from behind..Mom asked what happened? Maa Tooth ache..Mom asked what happened , I showed her my broken tooth and said it broke..Mom started her sahasranamas for me.....Wow my ears went on banging my head...Hehheee....I just said softly it will grow soon...Whacckkkkkkkkk.....mom slapped me telling its not a broken nail or cut hair that will grow..Its gone she said.
At 6 in the eve she rushed me to a dentist, and the dentist looked at it carefully and said its dead,me sitting and playing with the instruments there,DEAD..Wow even Teeth also has life and death..Simply Great I thought.he said to replace it and for the whole treatment it would cost 1200Rs..Hmmm Mom started cursing me for putting a heavy debt on her. She said we will come back next day and I never visisted that dentist after that.After that 8 years I had not got it replaced, only after I started working got it replaced after Root Canal Treatment..
But whenever mom saw my teeth and started mourning and crying for it I used realise even Teeth also has life and death..till 2005 Jan I was known for my broken tooth..Rana Bhai always appreciated my broken teeth ,
Coolllll.................LOL ;-)

Death by side
I was sad listening about CHOSWIN's death . A person whom I never saw in my entire life. Why its hurting me ? He was just my peer sitting at some vendor location and helping me with the issues that needed to be cleared.NOV 3rd he committed suicide on a railway track just for a mere girl who was his best friend on floor and was getting married on Nov 4th 2008.....
Though Friday dint have much work as all orders booked ,went to meet SC at manipal centre, then lakshmi at CTS my Mysore Infy friend and met shilpa .Took her to my new house to show her the house and roamed on her vehicle went to Comm's where she forced me to choose my birthday gift ..I just pushed it off saying not now ...
Then came back to office at 3 .00PM .Bro called me up and asked me to buy him a network card from reliance or TATA...Said ok will get it to St johns when I go to visit dad every evening.
On my way back home took bus 201 till NGV ..Called up Najju..Nov 9th was my cousin sheetal's marriage and also Manu's marriage . I was totally confused which one to attend..For Sheetal's marriage Asha aunty and poorna aunty were forcing me to go with them and from there to Haal Rameshwara..For Manu's marriage I was trying to gatherup my whole team .
I called up rachi ,kumu and others to find if they are coming all said ok. Finally called up Najju asked whether he is comin to manu's marriage. Najju said he will try as he had lots of work and he is not able to finish them .
I started up my usual kindling fight with him and finally totally bugged with him , I just said if hes not coming even I wont go . Just trying my last armour at him so that he would change his mind.He said its too difficult for him. I just cut the call. Later spoke to Sajesh Chetta and Hari also.Mom called me up asking where was I .I said am in Kormangala going to buy Internet card for bro, she said how was I going. I said by walking.
Mom asked me to take a rick . As suggested by her I took a rick and went to Sony world 100ft road, my mind listening to fm started wondering again about my life style before mysore and after mysore...Life changed before going to mysore itself ..My life style dressing sense everything had changed ..dont know why these many chnages never realised it also...A person who wore pants and skirts very often and salwar once in a week ...sarees for every ethnic wear day..or just sudden planning days at night....had felt it strange when she wore pant in Mysore Infy on the first day..Proper Formals looked out as too mod wear for a girl ..Is it the Mysore air or is the fear might some day bump into a relative in any nook and corner of Mysore in pants..Nah never had that fear.....Its a common dress why fear!!! MinD Kept on wondering ..Now after coming back from there had put on weight , so pants were looking odd on me.Person who used to wait for Fridays to wear Jeans and her favorite T shirts rather than the formal Shirts ,,,,,now on friday wearing a cotton salwar...Porkey look changed into decent traditional look ...I was NUMBER 1Porkey in SPS..Rachie used to tell u r HIGH ....When u in jeans..Ur walk , talk all becomes very confident and u behave like a guy and very carefree attiude u wud have....
Whats that thing coming in front.........ooooooooooh just 7 mts away , a bike .coming in a wrong route . Oh god the auto speed is so fast he might hit the bike and both auto and bike might crash.!!!! Gosh man Am dead today....I am not scared abt my death anytime but worried about dad in hospital what if he hears am dead..He would get into a shock ...Bro would feel helpless and mom would really get into a worst condition cant even think about it.......God why now.......Why my family to undergo all the pains ..First of all bro is half taking care of dad and again me ..BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM CRASHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!... Auto driver to avoid accident took a right turn at the deviation , the bike guy also entered the path and crashed the auto....Shucks auto turned two upside downs and me inside ...My heart missed a beat !!! I am out of the auto and falling on the divider , my heads gonna strike it hard now..I am dead..Life's over ...End Of all worries......
I am on the road lying down not able to get up ..My laptop bag my birthday gift all scattered on the road haphazard....I remembered Franklin anna's accident on Jan 1st 2003, his ankle almost hanging from his leg seperated...I wondered If my ankle has the same issue now..its bleeding cant see the ankle at all ...My laptop bag is all covered with blood oozing from my leg...I saw the divider..Just an inch difference between my head and divider...No death ..but still worries continue...What to I say mom ? What will happen if my leg is fractured? Again another patient in St Johns..Me and dad hospitalised ..Mom and bro beside us taking care of us..Oh God pls no no ..Not again ....
People near by lifted me so that I can stand ..I just tried shaking my ankle to see if its fine... not able to cos its swollen....Finally rushed me into a near by nursing home..Docs checked and said to move my leg ..They took X Ray ...I kept on praying nothing major should happen..
Prayed & prayed in pain ...Doc came and asked nurse to clean and apply medicine and do the dressing..
Its just a Ligament tear nothing to worry..Dint know exactly about it then asked doc , is there any surgery ..he said laughing No no nothing to worry ..
Oh god relieved then!!!.. Took a deep breath ..Now again pain seems to be increased..A burning sensation..NO one in the dressing room ..Just cried loud enough to let out the pain thru my tears,,
After some time nurse entered to clean and apply medicine..Once she cleansed it saw my leg..Gosh full skin scrapped out ..its peeled of like papaya peel peeled off...After applying medicine she dressed..People had collected my laptop and my birthday gifts and gave it to me...Auto driver and the bike guys had escaped...WOW great.... I was sacrificial sheep for the day..
I took my mobile called bro.
Hello
I said him"where are u ?
"
He said I am in the pvt room with dad..
KI come out wanna speak
Its ok tell ma ..
No u better come out now .I get impatient..
He comes out
R u out ?
Y tell me what happened ?
" Dont get shocked nothing major.. I met with an accident just now.
Now dont joke...
Am serious...
OH how where are you ? OK wait I will come..
No no you dont come ..dad will get doubt so u handle him..I will call Vishwa or franklin anna for help..am near Sony world..100ft road.I need cash will take from them..
I try vishwa's number he says he is at native,, Franklin anna is on leave that day and far awat from MIT.
I called Kumu hope she will be near by ..NOpe she is not picking..Called Loch ..Loch is at home ...Called Avi ..Avi is at office..Gosh no one ..Wht to do ....Shall I call Geetha? Nope She will go tell mom first thing..She isnt that daring....Kya karoon ......
Okie Let me handle myself.I called nurse and asked her to help me home and on way will pay her...
They said ok and at 6 reached home..Went hopping down the stairs..My chappals lost on the road...one leg fully bandaged and other bare foot ......my leg is feeling as if its seperated from my body just an attachement is made to my leg........
Reached home ...Mom is praying and lighting lamps ....nurse enters first ...Mom is puzzled as to what happened..She says small hurt..Mom is full in tears ..she asked what happened..Nurse opened her mouth to tell ...I said my leg got caught into a small ditch in the footpath..Which was left unclosed...Mom half believed,..News spread in my neighbourhood ...What a time dad is in hospital and daughter has her leg hurt ....all comments ... spandana geetha shwetha comes home ..spandu is full scared seeing the blood on the dressing.,,,,Dressing was not proper..Mom asked shwetha to take me to hospital ...I said mom not to come ..I can handle...shwetha got an auto and we went Kaveri Nursing home..I narrated whole story to shwetha and asked not to tell it to anyone.....Shwetha said ok....I dint let her see the wound .....sent her out...asked doc to give a pain killer.......Fine done and back home with shwetha bro s friends Senthil anna and Anil....
Thought came into my mind as to what if dad will ask why am not coming to hospital to see. He will be shocked to see me this way... I called bro...Bro picked the call and asked how I was? Spoke to him a bit and asked him to give it to dad...Dad picked up ...He asked why I dint go to see him ...I said I had too much work and reached home only now...at 9 :00 in the night... Told dad tat too much work half yearly closing so cant visit him at hospital for 15 days ..he got angry and cut the call...
Convinced mom to go to hospital everyday and I shall manage at home myself just watching TV all time....
Mom finally agreed to do that,,Pain mom and bro underwent was more than the pain me and dad undergoing...dad never knew until his discharge after twenty days ..Mom also came to know the same day as it was accident and not a wound caused by Keeping my leg in the ditch.....But untill then got scoldings as to be careful while walkng... Ha aha ha ha I still enjoyed the scoldings ..... :-)

Some departed, some near by , Some finished their Journey...
In our lives we have lot of people coming everyday ...But very few stay in your heart and very few live life long with you .In my life many people came as friends , dont know why I got attached to them so much, MIGHT BE ITS CARE...Its either I CARE for them or they have shown me Shown..If a man surrenders to anyone in his life is only for a CARING HEART ..
Yes the following people are those who have a special space in my heart.....My dad, Raju, Kucchu, Lochana,Shreyu,Shilpa,Sudeep,Siji,Sarika,Jammy(najamuddin), Dileep.
Shivakumaraswamy : Yes, its my dad....my dad was very protective abt me,Very much .after losing my sister at the age of 3 ..He became very possessive about me..Even if I fell and had a small hurt he would make the skies fall for me. Once when I was sick during Deepavali ,he ran to St Johns Hospital (My second home cos everyyear I have given visit to thsi hospital due to ill health in childhood)..When he was carrying me ,he had not even cared for his slipper which he left while running.
During my 10th Public Exam when I got operated just before 1 month to my exam, he sat beside my bed and had shed tears as he had lot of expectations with my 10th results..Even as a 16 year old girl he carried me in his arms then also....
My heart stuck when I saw my dad in the same hospital getting dialysed with needles everywhere on his body..The dad who was beside me everytime now he was hospitalised and I was there with him until my accident.
Whenever my mom hit us, he would go away out so that I dont hide behind him but later when he came back he would convince me telling he will hit my mom back .
Raju:My Childhood friend ..A year elder to me .Very much protective..If anybody teases me or hits me he would be there to fight against them.If his mom makes Omlette, she would give me as telling its DOSA(am vegetarian)....So whatever is prepared in his house he would share it with me.Be it my brother also if I get hit by him , this guy would against him. As I was youngest of all everyone used to scare me by devil stories..He would SHHHHHH them all by threatening not to scare me..Now dont know where he is after shiftng the house.
Kucchu(Neeta Unnikrishnan): Jan 21st 1988 , a fair girl with long black hair enters my house caring chocolates as it is her birthday. She became my friend after that ..She is also a year elder to me , She, her sister appu , my brother and me , were all jogging friends ..Go till BDA Complex (kormangala) jogging at 6 O clock and play there "Colour Colour which Colour do you choose" , Lock & key , Crocodile and other games..This girl and me both have walked so much at the age of 5, 6 , 7 ,& 8 in madivala..to the places which was mentioned very far for us.she used to take me to the park on saturday evenings..We used to go off without telling at home,
We sat together to stitch dress for her BARBIE.. We sat with each other talking of our great household problems we had ....(demon dreams, our enemies in neighbourhood , how to prepare food curry ? how to get the curry color brown , by putting the mud or anyother thing to be added to get the brown color for curry :-) Hehe ).....Today If I am daring the credit goes to Kucchu ...dont know where she is now..some say her mom passed away and she is a Model in Mumbai...
Lochana : loch she came into my life on june 29th 1998. Initially our friendship was not tat great . It was just two passengers travelling in bus . From home to college and then back from college to home . We used to sit together in bus and the words we spoke was just did you study yesterday ? Yes no and nothing else:. He he . After reaching college though we were in same class i used to sit in second row and she in last . Till end of day no contacts. I was still in school mindset and not tat matured in thinking.. Bunking class means was a sin to me :) oh my god ! Was my expression. Sometimes i had to wait for her to come back from movie and it would be ten to fifteen min late . I used to panic as wat will my parents think if am late and all. One day her mom came to my house and asked me to study in their house with loch as there was lot of disturbance in my house. We both did our studies well for a month in her room. One day it so happened tat her room light was not getting on . And we just trying to read with balcony s tinkering light . Finally got bugged up and i found a magazine in her room . I was big time crazy in reading serials in magazine . I asked her did she have tat habit . Here it started i narrated few stories which i read and she found one of then very much interesting and we went on discussing about it . It passed ten thirty and my dad had come to her house to pick me up. I never stayed there after nine but tat day it got late and dad stafred at me in anger and dint say anything.
It was always like she bunks classes with her group goes to watch movies. While coming back home, we get down in 16th Main BTM layout and walk home,she narrates the stories.So I knew the stories of all the movies. The days we walked long in madivala at night 9:30 to 10:00..The midinght talks on her terrace at 3:00AM,singing songs together,eating pani puri and golguppaon road sides, lunch at IndiJoe,Friendship day treat at AROMAS of CHINA , family day at INFY me bunking my MCA classes to take LOCH..Our fights regarding many things, her marriage ...My meeting with her at Brews & HAHA as soon as I came from my mysore.The latenight talks, etc etc.
Shreyu:Shreyas : Shaamu: My little brother, my BF as said my brother kiran and my fav tuition student. Now he is Medical student in second year but when he came into my life I was in my graduation 1st yr and he was in 5th std. I was teaching him and his brother.He came to my life at such a time I was really with much worries in my head ,he his brother and his MOM were like saviors to me ,Whenever I went to their house I felt so good and I forgot all worries of my life and felt relaxed with the family. With shreyu it was like me also a kid playing all kind of games .Whenever I felt bad he would be there to console me , and when i stayed night at their , we used to sit and talk long.When in his house they brought the Microwave oven he had prepared me Chocolate cake . On my birthdays e used be at my house at 6 only and wait to wish me until I wake up.. There are some things about our life where we get close to some people for their innocence care and affection they shower.
Shilashree:Another dear friend of mine ,how much i have roamed with her during ini

It was a Tuesday ..Mom as usual had been to Banashankari temple in afternoon ..It was summer afternoon.Me and bro at home talking some crap as to how many marbles we need to win for making our marble collection 100.
I am pampered a lot by all as am youngest and I used to fall sick very often .My best buddy and great enemy was my bro only.He used to take me to all games whichever he played.So till my 7th standard I remember playing Marbles, Cricket , Football, Lagori, Gilli Daandu, Choor Chend.. I never played hopping and catching or Kunte bille..Girls games means Whack........This was me ....still I am same a bit..
Bro if in good mood used to pamper me carrying on his shoulders and putting ulta on his shoulders as if he is a Besta(fisherman) and me his large fish and used to round up in garden on our terrace and in our whole street...
So bro told he had won major in kacchi or kanchi game (marble)..I said NO it was me who won maximum marbles thru Biscuit game in marbles.So started our panipat battle .Bro with manthu (curd churner) and me with Ittina Donne.Finally we went to an extent of hitting each other harder ..I got so angry at him.I pushed him harder on the ground with all my strength ,picked up the antique piece LOCK & KEY ( it was very old LOck) and ran out and locked the house. The amazing thing about this was , this was first time I had locked it and It was very difficult for me .Finally I was successful.and sat in front of the house as Villainy..Giving a shrewd look and hitting a stone in the garden..
Bro realised I had locked the door and started kicking the door.For his kicking sound all my neighbours came out to see "WHAT WAS the BANGING NOISE?".. They Understood the situation and started scolding me ...."BAJAARI , PAPA aa HUDUGANNA KOODI HAAKIDAALE..TEGIYE BAAGILANNA"...and me staring at all as none was telling me PAPA not understanding that I had won maximum marbles and bro had been cheating me by lieing he had won maximum..Hehehe...I heard all kinds of scolding almost twenty houses people had gathered in front of my house. A tamil lady also she aslo scolding in TAMIL..I dint hear to any of them and was still sitting statued as if those words were not for me.
I just gave them a DONT CARE look..One of the uncle came to pluck key from my hands..But I had hidden the key in my garden under the rose plant as I was well aware of the situation..All the people went away back cursing me.
As the time was going to be 5:30 PM , I knew it was time mom would be back soon.Suddenly took a big stick and slowly opened the door..Bro had already slept of tired of kicking and yelling ..
I too went and slept off... I dont know when mom came and when dad came .I woke up again at 10 PM to have my dinner with my dad.I prayed Banashankari that this incidence should not be known to my dad or mom .Luckily mom dint question me anything nor dad. We all had dinner as usual and slept off.I kept praying whole night the same thing.Morning also nothing happened.
After 24 years of thsi incidence I come to know now Mom never came to know that incidence at all.I recently told her about this and she was amazed that how come she never knew it at all.Thank you Goddess Banashankari...
People who see me once in 15 days or once in a month or once in a year..dont know how adamant , egoistic I am..But this was me when I was four years...Yeah still I get adamant egoistic but not this wild..Hehehehe...Hope many of them know me now after reading this...

By TWO Coffee
It was early morning 6:15A.M..No alarm woke up the 4 year old little girl..
She just woke up and starter searching her dad al over the house , Terrace and garden...Couldnt find him ..A little doubt popped into her head..She ran to the streets and saw her dad walking with his friend 100 mts far from her..She hadnt washed her face nor even brushed her teeth ..She ran behind them without even notifying her mom about her absence..She ran behind as fast as she could with her bare feet..
She started calling from behind.."Shivakumaraswamy , you cant leave me and go off like this , Stop Stop...Her dad turned back to see her running behind them and got a small smile on his face listening to his daughter calling him by his name .....His friend started teasing him that his daughter calls him by his name ..
To outsiders he was know as Strict Person ,.but for his dear daughter whatever she does..he would admire her..
Then all 3 went to JANATA HOTEL ..Beside Srinivasa Petrol..Her dad ordered at the counter Two coffees ..in that one should BY TWO..
Dad and daughter always have by two coffee.
This was usual routine..Dad daughter and Dad's friend all 3 go for early morning walk and drink coffee at Janata Hotel in Hosur ROAD(Madivala).
and come back home at 7 and dad again prepares coffees . ..Bisi Bisi Filter coffeee..
All 4 family members sit in hall and sip their coffee..Once the daughter (youngest child) gulps her coffee goes to her dad and get a small sip from his glass..then to mom sip from her glass also and to her brother who driinks late ...and ask him to pour a sip to her glass.. He would start yelling ..What is this always ? You come for a "KOSARU "..
This was mine and my dads early morning routine walking and coffee and chit chat about previosu day while coming back from walking..by the time my mom would finish with rangoli and filling water, we would be back ..My dad questioning my mom of all the account history I gave during our walk ..
Today I miss those good old days.. Once I used to wake up at 6:00AM now its difficult wake at 7 also ...
Today my dad's ill health is stopping me from takinghim to walk ..I miss it dad and I miss keeping my head on dad's lap and sleeping.
In my childhood days I used to pat my stomach in front of my dad to say I am hungry and he would get me packed from hotel ...As on festival days my mom prepares food only AT 3.
BUT today I feel so bad when my dad asks a pinch of salt extra and we need to maintain his diet as he is kidney patient..and we need to protect him..
I MISS THOSE OLD DAYS DAD .......
