“Miles to go before I sleep” : Kudrat


Quadratillo Habibullaevich Yuldoshev (hope I spelt his name right)... We call him Kudrat. He treats us like his kids and we let him be our father. After all father rules the house and nature (Kudrat) rules the Universe. So he rules anyways  :-P ...Jokes apart..no no... SAS-9 people can take me seriously because we are answerable to father /nature... I don’t know if I am making any sense... Ok Ok lemme introduce him.. I mean describe him.. I mean writing an essay on him.. Do you guys  remember those school days when we were asked to write essays on nature..???  :-P There goes my essay .. Read what I have to tell about our Nature (Kudrat of SAS-9).
     
Kudrat is an astronomer from Uzbekistan and has profound knowledge of his work. No wonder I never got much interest in Astronomy and I don’t even understand his work on Open Clusters etc. But whatever he speaks seems really very astonishing and intelligent to me. He is a language – geek and I always admire him for his quick – witted computer skills.  

Age is just a number for him. He is much senior to me but he might be 50 times more active and efficient than me. He is always involved in learning new things. May it be computer application or cooking.. or anything. He is a real Enthusiast.  I’ve seen that child like glitter in his eyes when he gets to learn something new. He looks like a curious teddy bear with his eyes wide open when something new is happening around. He is the cutest amongst all guys of our batch. He has two kids but many times I wonder how wonderful his wife would be feeling having three kids around.  One big - cute baby and two little ones.  

  
He is also one of the owls of our batch. His tini-vini eyes hardly gets sleep. He is a 24×7 guy of our group. He can be approached any time of the day and he would be ready to help. During Ooty trip when I was vomiting to the intestines stretching extent, he sat besides me to comfort me even though I was smelling awful due to vomit soiled clothes. He took care of me like his little sister. After that he always carried my luggage in rest of the trip so that I can roam around freely.  He is Santa of our group and wants to see everyone happy. He puts lots of efforts in entertaining us with his  jokes and riddles. Apart from that he is favourite amongst the group for his outstanding photographic skills. Many of my best pictures during the course are clicked by him.  
   
He lives life on his conditions. I’ve always seen him doing what he likes to do. I really appreciate his spirit of making full of every moment of life that too the way he wishes to. One would be really astonished to see him dance with full energy during our G2G parties. I can’t stop myself applauding for him when he takes full charge of the dance floor.

And yes ... The most important thing.. He is a philosopher too. I can’t forget that day when he quoted Socrates in the PRL lawn.
   
Hats off to your spirit of living.. Have a twinkling, sparkling and glittering Life.. aahaaan no need for wishes ..... After all Nature Rules and it always will....  :-)

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 ...
