2007 is over... gone.. it seems like yesterday, when i uncorked the champagne to set in 2007 but now its over... leaving me in a haze, as i collect the memories and try to preserve some of the choicest... the text messages keep coming in, the network is jammed, phone lines are busy and we are into 2008.. the previous year unravelled in a tremedous speed and it was a journey to savour..

31st nite on 2008 is perhaps the very best i have spent, the day started with my whole body aching thanks to numerous muscles pulls after a cricket match, a dust allergy leading to a sore throat and a running nose (soon to be transformed into a blocked nose)! not a very good way to start off the celebrations, to add to all this a plan wid school frends for a reunion cancelled and yeah running to office in the morning and hoping to get off early.. on reaching office, luck struck and struck BIG... there was absolutely no work in a office and more importantly getting off at 3.30 pm followed by a month off (study leave)! On reaching home i indulged in my favorite passtime for the last time in the year, the net! after chatting and wasting time, the cold took to me and i had to retire under the blanket for a much needed evening nap... dad returned home and then the fun started, getting dressed in jeans and sweats to goto Mr. Dutt's place to gate-crash (actually give him a surprise). What followed was some interesting conversation over snacks and wine (well my first new year resolution coming true b4 the year started.. amazing aint it?). After a frenzy of wishing each other on the new year, the conversation rolled ranging from school days, scholastic beats, the future of panchajoni and some useless banter.... we left his house a lil after 1 am.. and den the car inched its way along J.L.Nehru road in the search for a place to get a meal... the destination was azad hind dhaba but unfortunately, they had closed shop for the year... an alternative was found in dominoes (inspite of fact that my dad loathes pizzas like anything) after a sumptous dinner of chicken pizzas, we made our way back home in the dead of night! Reached home at 2.30 and then took refuge under the blanket.. on a happy note to begin a brand new fight for survival in the new year!!!

A great unplanned end to a mundane day and a year which had been nothing short of a roller coster ride!!!!!!!!!
