08th Sept 2008, my 24th birthday… I am now 24 year YOUNG. God blessed me with my result of BSc Multimedia final Semester, in which I scored 68.25%!!! The big day was a late start as whole night the phone was buzzing again and again for the birthday wishes in form of calls as well as messages. My Orkut, yahoo mail etc got filled with many wishes.

I realized that birthday is the only day which makes you understand how much others care for you. I know maximum of the people who wished me, just wished for formality but there are some people who really made my day. The flow of wishes started unexpectedly with Avi’s call as she called 2 minutes before the 12:00 AM mark hehe. After which Didi and Maa called exactly at 12:00 AM (Although I was born exactly 12 hours later hehe). Anyway, after all the wishes and replying to mails/messages/scraps, I managed to go to sleep at around 5:30 AM and woke up at 9:45 AM (hell, that was very less sleep as of only four hours and fifteen minutes!). After completing few of my important tasks I went to Capt Suresh Sharma’s home for birthday lunch, as Dr Rajbir Kaur (wife of Capt Sharma) had cooked my favorite items.

At Captain’s place, I really enjoyed those three hours (Chirag was jumping on me after he had rolled me over the floor, great fun like Tom and Jerry playing together). Moreover, I am always treated like being part of the family and I feel quite privileged as I get a feeling of my own home, whenever  I go there. We chatted over some websites, discussed some mails as case studies, I learnt amazing stuff about life while discussing things with Captain Suresh sir. Then main part came as Dr Rajbir, I address her as Didi (elder sister) prepared my favorite lunch (rajmah rice and `semeeyan’) for me! I really admire her for the amount of work she does. I remember my Mom telling me about the work load she used to have, when me and Didi were small but never realized how difficult that could be! After watching Rajbir Didi, I wonder how women manage to do the work so quickly with perfection!

At around 3:30 PM I, along with Capt Sharma left for Chandigarh as he had to go to Shukla Sir’s office (Dr. I.D. Shukla, Founder of Griffins International. You must see how well he make you understand the depth of language especially English!). After we reached the place, Sir went to the office and I left to meet my friends and all. I bought some chocolates and went to meet Kanchan (A wonderful girl who is working with Canasia. In a very short period of time, unbelievably she has become a very good friend of mine. I don’t know how she manages to find positivity in all aspect of life. Once you meet her, she will make you think positively even if you are hurt! And yes she promised me that she will not allow me to remain single for long and will find a girl for me hehe.)

The meet with Kanchan was a very small one like of twenty minutes. After that I left for Centra PVR and watched Wednessday with Nishkam. Fortunately we both managed to reach on time and see full movie for a change! Wednesday is no doubt a perfect movie. A worth watch or I must say MUST WATCH.Being a small 1:43 minutes movie, it was quick. The amazing thing was the whole hall was clapping on the end of the movie! Now you can imagine how good the movie is!

After this I ame back home and replied to the mails and messages which came while I was absent from the Internet (Which is uncommon in daily routine as this is source of my bread!) At around 8:30 PM I left for dinner at Hot Millions 2 with Nishkam, Niti and three of their friends. And yes! I forgot to tell you that this birthday was unique for me because I said “Same to you” to three people who wished me Birthday! Why? Well it was their birthday also!! hehe. They were Nishkam’s Mom, Simran (Friend of niti) and Sanchita (Didi’s roommate).

At dinner there were six of us. Me, Nishkam, Niti, Simran, Raju and Ashu. Here some pics are attached in gallery so that you can see the fun we had!

At around 10:30 PM I came back and again switched on Internet to reply rest of the mails and messages which came later on. The day went good with all the fun I had. I learnt few things from Capt. Sir and Kanchan about life. I hope this year of my life will bring some good news for me.
