We humans have this tendency of causing disappointments to ourselves by setting great expectations and always falling short of them . So, everything was going as per plan . A little goof up to trace Papa at the terminal but thats okay. Finally found him, back to home, quick breakfast and off to Manya's school with the cake. She was looking like a fairy ! Then long talks with Papa on who's who of family and relatives . Then Nidhi and myself decided not to arrange the party . Reason : Kids upto 5 Years don’t come alone, they come with their Mummies. It happened last year too ! Kids are relatively easier to handle but we have to attend mummies too and this party is supposed to be a kids affair but they don’t understand this hence .Second, We thought we will be able to spare some time for Papa as he was here for one day only . So the party was dropped .
The rest of the day went on well, we took Manya to Korum Mall, the most Happ Mall in the city. She was sooooo enjoying hereself, loads of rides and games. Finally we came back home exhausted, exhausted ? May be I understated, we came back home almost dead . Manya was already fast asleep on my shoulders, laid her down on the bed gently and kissed her Good Night. Papa then spoke on length about his glorious tenure at his Bank ( he will be retiring on 31st Dec`11 ) and that after retirement he will be able to spend more time with us which hitherto was not possible due to job constrainsts . We expressed our happiness and requested him to spend half the year with us and the other half at Shimla with Bro Amit .
Finally, we were at bed retrospecting about the Birth day. Nidhi felt that we could have done it better to which I agreed . When we look back we always think that things could have been better but that`s life. You cannot turn back time. Had it been possible I would have definitely opted for a better B-School for MBA .( Aside VAMNICOMNIANS : Without offence, I am sure you will agree to this. Most of us have struggled real hard to get where we are today . I don`t know howz the placement scenario now in our college ) . But All`s well that ends well. Alll Izzzz Wellll :-0. A happy note to end this post .
Before closing I must thank Deepali for the inspiration to start the blog . Her way of narrating things is awesome .
Wishing you happiness Dear friends, I remain ,
Yours truly,
Munish.
