Happiness is not so Happening..

Happiness is just another word in the English dictionary, but then is its meaning justified or proven?!.
It is an emotion that follows achievement, success and other flattering terms but then it is not ever lasting.

The first step towards happiness is always the toughest, cause it calls for busting the sorrows and graving them six-feet under.
The difficulty lies in our chromosomes, the hunger for ever lasting and eternally growing success.

The happiest of the lot are kids and grandparents.The former is the purest form of god's creation and are yet to be infected by the evil plague of discontentment.While the latter by virtue of their journey have recognized the evil.
The individuals who do not belong to the above categories are the inflicted souls and sadly the disease has no cure!.

The article so far may sound caustic but please read further before making your judgement.

-> A woman is the happiest to carry a budding life in her womb, but not so if she is still single.
-> A teenager builds his world around love and imaginations.Then the break-up follows, his sand castle is conquered.He is forced to remove the rosy-colored spectacles.
->Your best friend in high school,who used to be your pillion since childhood in now the C.E.O. of a multinational corporate house and too busy to give you a call.Its not your fault, yet you are sad.
->Your husband provide you with everything you want from stockings to necklace.
One day you read an text message in his phone, to your agony you are not the only female your husband is so concerned about! If you are smart enough u file a divorce or else you are an indian.
->The son gets married to a pretty lady, achieves immense success in life.His parents are proud of him but none do they realize how it will feel when he forsakes them.
->You are thirty six and a housewife, you are looking at the glam-dolls in your fashion weekly.
->Your pet dog dies.

Happiness is not something that you can search for amidst so much of pain, hypocrisy, malice and betrayal.SO try to enjoy its presence before it goes on another long vacation.

Eternal happiness was supposedly destroyed when The GARDEN OF EDEN was invaded, but the fact remains it is something that can make you smile even when your eyes are swollen from overnight tears, when you think about your first kiss, when you browse through your photo album......
......Or when you are tired of sitting in the couch and decide to hit the road.

DON'T SEARCH FOR IT, LET IT COME TO YOU.
DON'T FEEL DOWN, YOUR HAPPINESS IS DUE.

The WAIT..

It was dark,her lips were freezing
the last train had arrived,
But there was no sign of Mike.

The platform was empty,the weather was wet
the gods were against her
Her eyes were silent and her heart was broken!

Her uncle wanted to sell her,
Mike promised her a life.
But here she stands resigned to her fate,
No one to love,No-where to hide.

She was feeling so helpless,
not even a fly around her.
"why did he do this? He loved me!
He can't do this to me?!" all that she thought.

Suddenly her phone rang,
she listened to the voice,
she fell upon her knees,
Now she had all the answers.The voice said,
"Mike is dead, I love you Jess is all he said".

A PLOT TO REMEMBER....the placement season!!

10TH NOV'10....
(10:30am) Went for the written examination,casual as ever,creased shirt and cargo pants.my Hair unruly and long as it has has been for the past god knows how many years.

(11:00am) The question paper was distributed and to my agony couldn't make out where the technical questions were from, it all appeared plain Hebrew!!

Started off with the aptitude section, and solved all the questions with impeccable accuracy,knew a few tech answers, rest simple guessing.

(12:30pm) Returned to the hostel with a long face, nothing unnatural, considering the fact that the only thing me-thinking was how screwed and ill-literate i am!

They had given a bio-data form to be filled up by all the applicants just after the written and i was so sure that i wasn't clearing the written decided not to fill it up.

(2:00pm) Just finished off with my lunch,playing carom with friends. all of a sudden a friend of mine comes yelling " bangali tera written main ho gaya hai..............beti****,har*mi,chut*ya tune abhitak form nahin bhara hai?!"
i ran to my room to fill up the form, completely baffled, searching for a passport size photograph.Final got one and completed the form.

Thanks to my carelessness i had left my formal wardrobe and file back home.
i was wearing:
Shirt of Md.Fahad .
Tie and shoes of Amerendra kumar .
Documents File of Murari Kr Saxena .
And no socks

(3:00pm) The group discussion round started. The topic for discussion was "all men are born equal". the G.D. went well as it has always been the case with me.

(4:00pm) The results were declared and as expected, was selected for the interview round.

(6:00pm) I was nervous and tired waiting for my turn to come. I believe even others heard my heartbeats.Finally the minute arrived and i was asked to enter the cell, i mean impressing the H.R. panel is nothing less than trying to prove your innocence when caught red-handed ;).

Four experts were sitting across the table ready fire to questions at me and me-trying to dodge every question like Neo dodged the bullets in MATRIX.But after all he was in a fictional world and me?...i guess u know it!!

The interview panel comprised of three ladies and a gentleman.

The knights blasted me for 25 minutes, and i fought like Maximus the gladiator, but then finally i was sloshed even without a peg ;).

(8:30pm) The results of the grand finale was declared.Only four of us were selected.

I wont be able to express what was going through my mind and body at that pointed in time when the golden phrase " Nirmalya Datta, welcome to the Tata family" was told to me...it sounded like arpeggios from heaven.

(9:00pm) Returned to the hostel with friends swarming around me like bees.Then the wrath of happiness was unleashed in the form of the golden N.I.T. custom, the GPL..
OMG people kicked the ever so little flesh in my ass for god forbidden number of times and almost ripped it apart...ouch it still aches!!
Special mention:Ankit agarwal and Ghanshay meena.

Thanks Guys.

I didn't have my dinner that night, was in kinda trauma!!:D :D

I believe it is just so very impossible to credit my efforts or talent or patience to this cause.Its a dream come true, and i will credit it to all those people who have been by my side through the hick-ups of my life and yeah to my parents for blindly trusting my abilities.

WELL,ITS ALL IN THE STARS AND ON THIS DAY THEY ALL OF THEM WERE IN MY FAVOUR.



Special thanks to:

Gaurav,Tripta,Ankita,Urvashi,Sulagna,Ahana,Ayantika,Abhyudoy,Soumya,
