God bless them. It was so nice that she found a nice boy.
He is working in Mumbai - spoke with him.

Hope Blogger can do something about this.

Anybody got any plans to fool ???
It is quite a fun to fool on 1 April;
as long as U dont carry it too far and the other person takes it sportingly,
or even U should be sporting enough to accept it when somebody fools U.
So long folks .... Have a nice day !!!

;;; GOA ;;;

Hello world !!!
Good to come back after a short vacation.
Went to Goa after a long time.
Had a good time in Goa - sun , sand , seista.
Lots of Beers n' loads of fish.
Crabs, Prawns, Squids .... I love sea-food.
Surprisingly the climate in Goa was pleasant.
I thought it would be hot n humid - n' will sweat like a pig.
But it was quite Ok in the afternoons n'
cool in the evenings.
Beaches covered in Goa - Colva, Colangute, Baga.
Feel refreshed - hoping to go back soon. ;)
Cheers !!!

Life’s been good

Hello World !!!
"Life’s been good - to me so far."
Just humming this song today by Eagles.
All buses and trains are booked for the week-end.
I dunno how Im going to make it to Goa this week-end ???
Guess gotta leave on Friday and then take Monday - Tuesday OFF.
Lets See What Happens.
So long folks !!!
Cheers !!!

EAGLES
"Life’s been good"
I have a mansion forget the price
Ain’t never been there they tell me it’s nice
I live in hotels tear out the walls
I have accountants pay for it all

They say I’m crazy but I have a good time
(everybody say oh, yeah.....oh,yeah)
I’m just looking for clues at the scene of the crime
Life’s been good to me so far

My maserati does 185
I lost my license now I don’t drive
I have a limo ride in the back
I lock the doors in case I’m attacked

I’m making records my fans they can’t wait
They write me letters tell me I’m great
So I got me an office gold records on the wall
Just leave a message maybe I’ll call

Lucky I’m sane after all I’ve been through
Everybody says I’m cool (he’s cool)
I can’t complain but sometimes I still do
Life’s been good to me so far

I go to parties sometimes until four
It’s hard to leave when you can’t find the door
It’s tough to handle this fortune and fame
Everybody’s so different I haven’t changed

They say I’m lazy but it takes all my time
Everybody says oh yeah (oh yeah)
I keep on going guess I’ll never know why
Life’s been good to me so far

School

Hello world !!!
School moulds a child's future.
The teachers imbibe the basics of life-
the way we behave, the way we talk,the right path, truth, honesty,
patience, perserverance, discipline, friendship and so many things.
I still cant forget the things some teachers have taught me when i was young.
Our school principal for example - Mr. Agnelo Pinto.
He was a strict man. Our school rules were that everybody
should wear cotton uniforms - b'coz those days cotton was cheap
and the poor could not afford other fabrics- so cotton it was.
It bought in a sense of oneness among the students.
Everybody irrespective of class, caste or color was above the rule.
Then there was our vice-principal who taught me grammer.
It was difficult to score more than 60 out of 100.
I remeber sharing the highest marks 53 - with two other students.
Out of 50 odd classmates - 40 had flunked the paper.
He was coincidently our Hockey coach too.
He taught me how to move with the ball on the flanks
as I was the left winger. And bingo i scored the winning
goal in the Inter school finals.
Memories memories memories....
School brings back so many memories...
Wish I was still back in school...those carefree days....
Cheers !!!

Aankh hai bhari bhari

Hello world !!!
Got the lyrics for the song -->

Hindi Song Title: Aankh Hai Bhari Bhari -
MaleHindi Movie/Album Name: TUM SE ACHCHA KAUN HAIN
Singer(s): KUMAR SANU

(Aankh hai bhari bhari aur tum
Muskuraane ki baat karte ho) - 2
Zindagi khafa khafa aur tum
Dil lagaane ki baat karte ho
Aankh hai bhari bhari aur tum
Muskuraane ki baat karte ho
(Mere haalaat aise hai
Ke main kuch kar nahin sakta) - 2
Tadapta hai yeh dil lekin
Main aahein bhar nahin sakta
Zakhm hai hara hara aur tum
Chot khaane ki baat karte ho
Zindagi khafa khafa aur tum
Dil lagaane ki baat karte ho
Aankh hai bhari bhari aur tum
Muskuraane ki baat karte ho
(Zamaane mein bhala kaise
Mohabbat log karte hain) - 2
Vafa ke naam ki ab to
Shikaayat log karte hain
Aag hai bujhi bujhi aur tum
Lau jalaane ki baat karte ho
Zindagi khafa khafa aur tum
Dil lagaane ki baat karte ho
Aankh hai bhari bhari aur tum
Muskuraane ki baat karte ho
(Kabhi jo khwaab dekha to
Mili parchhaaiyaan mujhko) - 2
Mujhe mehfil ki khwaahish thi
Mili tanhaaiyaan mujhko
Har taraf dhuaan dhuaan aur tum
Aashiyaane ki baat karte ho
Zindagi khafa khafa aur tum
Dil lagaane ki baat karte ho
Aankh hai bhari bhari aur tum
Muskuraane ki baat karte ho
Mm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm - 2

Zindagi hai khafa khafa

Hello world !!!
Just listened to a song on radio....
I dunno which movie or who the singers are...
But its quite a lovely duet ...
It goes something like ...
Zindagi hai khafa khafa ...
aur tum dil lagaane ki baat karte ho ...
Waqt hai tamha tamha ...
Aur tum muskaraane ki baat karte ho ...
Will appreciate if - Anybody can tell me name of movie.
Long time since i liked a song.
Have Fun folks !!!

Week-end hangover

Hello world!!!
Typical Monday morning..
Have to virtually drag yourself to work.
The day somehow seems to be longer on Monday.
It seems never ending.
Right now I'm trying to get through the day.
Week-end hangover is still hovering in my head.
Had a lovely week-end.
So long folks !!! Have Fun :)

Champions league

Arsenal 1 - 0 Bayern Munich
Juventus 2 - 0 Real Madrid
AC Milan 1 - 0 Manchester United
Chelsea 4 - 2 Barcelona

Well Arsenal won against Bayern but having lost the first leg,
they are out of the Champions league. Its gone horribly wrong for them
this season. They are placed 3rd in the Premier league;
Lost the Carling Cup; only Cup they can win is the FA Cup.

Another of my favorite Club - Real Madrid are out too.
They had won the first leg 1-0 and lost the return leg 2-0
in extra time. Such a talented side going down is a waste.

Meanwhile Man. United lost their return leg too.
Chelsea surprised Barca 4-2; having lost the first leg
2-1 ; they go through on aggregate 5-4. Chelsea are going great guns this season
and are on course to win the premiership; having already won the League Cup,
hoping to make a grand treble' having lost the FA cup tie with Newcastle.

So thats all about Football folks.
Cricket India is all set to win the first test against the Pakis.
So long folks !!!
Have a nice week-end ...

Bad cold

Hello World !!!
Not keeping too well.
Got a bad cold.
Its Thursday.
Last week all my plans flopped.
Could'nt go for the Jagjit singh concert
not the Mark Knopfler show.
It always happens to me.
I plan something and something else comes up.
Next time I wont plan anything - let destiny take its
own course. It works better that way i guess.
Have a nice day !
Have fun :)

Mark Knopfler

Hello world !!!
Mark Knopfler will be playing tonite at Palace grounds, Bangalore.
Hope to go for the show.
Mark Knopfler was the lead man of the band Dire Straits.
Dire Straits have dished out classics galore of which I like -
1. Money for nothing.
2. Sultans of Swing.
3. Walk of Life.
4. So far away.
5. Twisting by the pool. and so the list goes.

Do you know that Dire Straits are Sachin Tendulkar's favorite band.
He rocked Mumbai y'day and my friend called me not to miss it.

Jagjit Singh And Ghulam Ali

Hello World !!!
Jagjit Singh And Ghulam Ali in concert.
Two giants of the ghazal world.
Although I 've not heard Ghulam much;
Im a big fan of Jagjit Singh.
His ghazals are truly exemplary.
"They render to your heart and enlighten your soul."
Last two times Jagjit Singh I somehow missed it.
But I'm not missing this time for sure.
I'm cancelling my holiday plans for teh week-end
to be in Bangalore for the show.

Some of my favorites are -->

socha nahiN achcha bura
------------------------------
socha nahiN achcha bura dekha suna kuch bhi nahiN
maanga khuda se raat din tere siwa kuch bhi nahiN

dekha tuJhe socha tuJhe chaaha tuJhe pooja tuJhe

meri khata meri wafa teri khata kuch bhi nahiN

jispar hamari aaNkh ne moti bichchaaye raat bhar

bheja wohi kaagaz tuJhe humne likha kuch bhi nahiN

ek shaam ki dahleez par baithe rahe wo der taq
aankhoN se kee baateN bahot humne kaha kuch bhi

Mere jaise jab ban jaoge
-----------------------------
mere jaise ban jaOge jab ishq tumhe ho jaayega
diwaroN se takraaOge jab ishq tumhe ho jaayega

har baat gawaara kar loge mannat bhi ukara loge
tabeejeN bhi bandhwaaOge jab ishq tumhe ho jaayega

tanhaayee ke jhoole jhoolOge har baat puraani bhoolOge
aayine se ghabraOge jab ishq tumhe ho jaayega

jab sooraj bhi kho jaayega aur chaand kahin so jaayega
tum bhi ghar der se aaOge jab ishq tumhe ho jaayega

bechaiNi jab baDh jaayegi aur yaad kisi ki aayegi
tum meri ghazaleN gaOge jab ishq tumhe ho jaayega

us's mod se shuru kareN
--------------------------
us's mod se shuru kareN phir Ye zindagi
har shay jahaN haseen thee, hum tum the ajnabi

lekar chale the hum jiNhe jannat ke khwaab the
phooloN ke khwaab the wo mohabbat ke khwaab the
lekin kahan hai unmeiN wo pehle see dilkashi

rehte the hum haseeN khaYaaloN ki bheeD meiN
ulJhe huye haiN aaj sawaaloN ki bheeD meiN
aane lagi hai yaad wo fursat ki har ghaDi

shaayad ye waqt humse koi chaal chal gaya
rishta wafa ka aur hi rangoN meiN dhal gaya
ashkoN ki chandini se thee behtar wo dhooP hi

Naughty Calvin strikes again !!!

Hello World !!!
Surprised to get a call from a childhood buddy.
Its been almost 4 years since I spoke to him.
He is married and blessed with a lovely daughter and working in Dubai.
Talking to him I thought about all the wonderful things we did
when we were kids. He was two years elder to me.
Play cricket - he was a good fast bowler aka Mcdermott,
with a real long run up. I used to bowl medium pace.
We used to organize matches every sunday and practice
every morning and evening without fail.
Such was the passion to get into the school team.
Hockey season - it used to be hockey.
Football season - football.
He was lucky to play in all the three sports in school,
I got to play only Hockey.
How time flies .... but memories last forever ...
Have fun people !!!
