Happy bday Bhole

Happy bday bhole. one thing is sure, no bday goes without parties, irrespective of where we are. Here is my fav Whiskey...cheers to you..

Remembering all the whiskeys made worthwhile by ur company..Remembering IV...remembering Blore. here is another one....for the road

Question .... why is Gulzar so relevant to us

It was 2003 that Gulzars statement "ab ke baras dewaar mein darar parh gayi hai .... pichle baras ye aisi na thee" held true for us as we all started journey to different places to find our not so very big ambitions. We all making some thing of our life but still in our mind "mujhse naraaz nahin zindigi hairaan hoon main" when we started neglecting so many small things that we always cherished. At some point we left our family & at some point we left our friends. Things I really long for is perfectly captured in Gulzars Triveni:

"Naap kar waqt bhara jata hai ret ghadi main
Ek tarf khali ho to ulat dete hain usko

Umr jab khatam ho to kya mujhe ulat nahin sakte"

I still think that why cannot we go back to Kasuali & let the time be still .... just bout of laghter breaking the silence.

"Bhole happy birthday & I am missing everbake cake (One with discounted rates)"

Gulzar.....Aaj baithte hain....

Gulzar and Abida...... Perfect Combo.
This calls for RS and coke...the better combo.

Bhola was here.

Kabhi Kabhi mere dil mein khayaal aata hai.. ok, never mind. I have taken so many "gaaliyaan" for my not-so-good shayari, that I dont want to start off this blog by inviting more of them :-)



MSE2KOOL.. the group of demented romantics and pragmatic dreamers. Ab koi roz roz to blog banata nahin hai, lekin jab ban hi gaya hai to let me say this: I personally am against the concept of blogs. Too public for my taste, but since this one is open to just us 2KOOL dudes, I guess I can put words to the thoughts.



I remember going back from the University towards Indira Vihar one day, with Sumit Swaroop. We were in a mudrika, and our placement effort was on at that time and it was not exactly going great guns. At any other time, our worries would be limited to the stock of Royal Stags, but at that time we were sort of concerned about "after MCA, what next?" In that bus, I remember asking Sumswar "how do you see us 5 years from now". And he replied, "we all will be pretty fucked up in our jobs, busy with projects". Well, it has only been 4 years, but his words have come true. We all are now in different cities, countries.. even continents. I dont know when or where, will we be able to sit together once again, and listen to Ghalib or Gulzar with daru.



But here's hoping.. and until then, we will keep running in our own seperate directions in this race called life. Back in the good times, we used to go to the Gulshan ka dhaba. Ab shayad, yeh blog hi hamara Gulshan ka dhaba hai, jahaan sab log mil paayein.



So this is it. My first blog ever, aur woh mere doston ke naam. Hmm, now that I read the crap I have written, the only thing I can think of is.. "Blog tha shayad, blog hi hoga" ;-)

mse2cool on blog

mse2cool probably a no name to many, but it seems its become a very important part of our small group that has seen ups - downs - highs - lows of life together.

It all started during our college life some years ago when we had more time to worry about cricket match with another batch than on our semester grades. We are 12 weird characters with nothing in common except laziness. I always think how did it come about - 12 people with different aspiration & outlook still gelling together as nothing is different. mse2cool still longs for those old days full of laughter & free spirit that became out stepping stone for our present lives.

I leave this blog open to all mse2cool to come on single page & share.
