Meri Padosan: Dilpreet


50 more days to count before SAS-9 (space and atmospheric science -9) group will have to part ways and go back to their respective places. I’ve already started feeling nostalgic about the days spent together with all of you (SAS-9 friends). I m really going to miss those uncountable happy moments together of our 9 months stay at ISRO residence. Before leaving, I thought that I should give you all some memories to cherish ... so I decided to dedicate a blog to each of you (Don’t worry only good things are on the way :P). Writing takes lot of thinking and basically appropriate mood is required to pen down feelings in best possible way. That is the reason why I have started writing much prior to 30th April.

Hmmm so coming back to my padosan (neighbour) : Dilpreet.. Girl with most loving heart.

Dilpreet (DP; as we call her) was the first person of our course whom I met on the first day of my arrival at ISRO residence. Believe me it was ‘ friendship at first sight :P’.  She knows almost everything about me. She was there when no body knew that I was going through a PHASE in my life. She is the closest witness of the ups and downs, undergone by my life during this course. We shared feelings, food and fun throughout which strengthened our bond so much that we became besties and eventually adopted each other as sisters. When DP used to come to my room to chat with me, time would fly at its fastest pace. When I used to starve due to my laziness for cooking, she cooked for me and fed me; moreover she always tolerated my cooking experiments.
     
DP is an extravagant animal lover and in her company I also developed a soft corner in my heart for dogs. Raising puppies, collecting donation for their food in the campus was one of the best experiences of my life so far. I really thank her for making me aware of the pain of helpless animals whom I’ve been ignoring  so far in my life. I started finding joy in helping animals which was the best medicine to heal my wounded heart.
Going shopping with DP was real fun. So far I used to think that I was better at bargaining but believe me, DP is best.  Trying new kind of food at almost all food outlets in Bopal and those uncountable Ice cream and pani puri treats. Face pack treatments at hostel and clicking selfies endlessly .. I m going to forget none.
I thank her for helping me with extra efforts in completing the tasks given by the teachers at SAC and for her contribution in availing considerably good scores in the tests. 

Off course the ‘7 months 10 days’ story cannot be expressed in few words.. But some1 has very well said ‘love needs no words’. 

With tons of love,
DP I wish you All the best in life .. May you soar high and high.

5 life lessons I learnt from my Dad

People who know me closely are aware of Tom & Jerry kind of relationship between me and my father. Off course no relationship is perfect and me and my papa is best example of that. Fighting, blaming, taunting, arguing, debating and stop talking are common events between us. Our relationship has a Kabhi-Khushi-Kabhi-Gam type of history but as I grew up I started accepting him the way he is and I realized that my papa is a jewel. I can learn several things from him. Its just that I’ve to deal with his quirkiness sometimes. List is long but here I want to share 5 most important things I learnt from him.   Accepting simplicity as a lifestyle :-  Being born in TV era, as a kid I was also very influenced by the virtual world very far from reality. I had aspirations like having very good clothes and to be richest person on the planet so that I could buy all the luxuries for myself. But I am a transformed person now. I see my papa, he has very minimal necessities for surv...

The Laughing Buddha of SAS-9: Chanaka Sandaruwan Haggalla

Mornings are very difficult for me. I hate to get late and make people wait for me. But unfortunately I cannot overcome my desire of sleeping till the time after which spending a second in bed, can get me late. Today was one such morning and my mood was already offset. I took a backseat in car and guess what happened next? The first thing I noticed was, 'big-bright' smile of Chanaka and all stress of getting late and facing my guide after a bad performance in project evaluation, flew away. Mimansa Shastri with Camera Man Chanaka Sandurvan Haggalla.. :-P Chanaka is a simple person with very less needs and the cheerful smile on his face depicts the contentment in his heart. His attitude of taking care of others and going beyond his limits to see others happy, impresses me the most. His personality lacks " I " and so far I have not been able to find out any trace of selfishness in him. His simplicity is most charming and his minimalist approach towards life, in...

The Unsettling Questions...

Today Kanika came back from her office little early. She made some sandwiches for her dinner and comforted herself on couch in front of the TV. She changed almost all channels but couldn’t find any interesting show to watch. She had some shopping to do but she delayed that on weekend as she was not willing to step out of her home after an exhausting day at work. Playing some songs of her customised playlist, she ate her dinner. While she was having dinner, her phone vibrated many times to give the notification that there might be some whatsapp messages but today Kanika was not interested in chatting with friends. Last two years were very difficult for her and had completely transformed her. She always tried to keep herself more and more busy. Even when she was unwilling to go out and hang out with friends, she did so because she wanted herself to be extremely busy with everything and anything so that her heart could never peep in the past. Inspite of trying very hard to heal herself ...
