Happy Endings....

My previous two post were a bit serious....
I want to end up today, rather this year posts with a Happy Endings....

It was an event a month ago.....when I had just done with ma CAT and in a joyous mood, really willing to hangout some where...
Its been a year and more I came to pune and gone to many trips but we all room-mates had never been together into a trip....
We now got a chance and we dont wanna lose. We started to Sinhagad. I swear this was the best trip of mine here around and I rate it even above my Mahabaleswar Tour. It was just hardly some hours trip....but that was awesome!!!
Four of my room-mate including me and two of ma collegues totally six of us on three bikes. It was almost some 60Km ride. Till some point it was ok.....just a normal ride in chillin whether. Forgot to make a point, It was not really the place that made this trip so exciting, it was the whether that day. The whether was very much cold with sun behind the dark clouds and it is even bit drizzling.
well comming back to jouney, the actual ride started when our bikes took on to ghati road. You really cant belive my words.....you cant see any person or any tree or any vehicle which was some 2 meters ahead. It was totally filled with fog....and I can really catch the clouds.
We started riding very slow with our bike's head lites on at 9 AM in the morning. Due to little spitting, the road which was filled with stones and ditches was wet, which made the back tyre skid if we raise the accelator a bit. Just moving ahead with a slogan slow and steady wins the race. Now at this time, Im in a kidding mood but at that point of time my heart was jumpin out with thrill, fear, anxiety and excitement.

Finally we reached the top of the hill. After I parked my bike, Im just inquiring what was there and why did we climb such a hill......my buddy replied to me...look at there, that was Shivaji's fort. To my surprise I cant see any thing. I walked a furlong and can see a huse ancient monument. It was in disguise till then in clouds. At that moment I had all praise for God for his creativity. Then I understood the phrase "Nature is God".

Had a very long site seeing session there....had a chilled kulfi.....had a hot hot kanda pakoda.....
It was worth seeing place provided the climate supports you else it will be horrible....

The other week, Im to Lohaghad, with my Office team this time. I have been missing my team outings for many a times with some or other reason.....But this time if I miss....my team wont spare me....that too this time its a trekking spot which im very much interested....so im there....
This trip unlike the other one just elucidated, the climate was horrible. It was totally sunny. To my horror, I had put a black shirt which sucks even more. We reached the spot on a local train. We had an trekking expert among us....he used to guide us. This was also an Shivaji's fort.

To some extent we are just walking and walking and walking........we just can see was a edge of the fort up above in the sky.......Later we reached some steps. At the end we reached the fort. It has got a very huse valleys at its edges.....if you look down, Im sure you get a tickle along your spinal..... We started as a team of 15 or so....every one reach till the end of the fort....but it was not the edge....The edge is a flag post which was some 2 km ahead. Only 5 of dared to fo there....
It starts with a very narrow path of half a km where dont have any support for urself to catch....you need to balance your self.....walk slowly...be sure that you have good pair of shoes to your foot....
After this path...therz a point where you need to jump...later you need to crawl...and wt not every thing.....It was really thrilling to reach the flag post the edge of the fort which we saw it from the ground.....
With this Im done with my trekking interest as well....for a week more my legs are paining....

These are the last two trips of 2008....Let me check wts there in for 2009

Life Chnaged!!!

Hmmmm...So its end of 2008!!!
The fastest year ever till now in ma life......
Lot many changes in the way of life......in the social status...in the responsibilities.....blah blah!!!
All these changes start with a single reason behind---Im in to a job and Im earning!!!
A lot many changes....became a bit official....of course not a kid any more.....the responsibilities n the job roles at ma work, the status in the office..........the good repo among the colleagues....
And one more point is that made very good well wishers here....some times which make me feel proud of ma self!!!!

On the other hand I can truly say ki the old sreeks was gettin changed!!!!
Oopssss....that luks a bit weird....but shd b accepted!!!
The 31st night was fast approaching but no thoughts of hangouts or parties....I wish to creep under ma blanket and have a sound sleep with my mobile in silent. I dont say im got sick of partyin.....It was very simple....I got used to with the routine.....I find no more enthu in chillax...

Of course there will b a time with frnds n collegues around, to have a chat or move around for some shoppin etc, but not a kinda josh that used to be in those bygone beautiful college days!!!!

The bottom line is, 2008 was good enough with not many big surprises but with many changes with in me..........which might be, may be which should be for good cause!!!
Happy new year........
