PJ King : Chintan Jethva


Suppose you are in a strange land with no known people around you and coincidentally you find a person from your place (country/state/city) whom you had never met before. Only thing you know about him/her is that he/she is from your land. At once you’ll be friends with that person and a fabric of trust will connect you both immediately. This is exactly how I felt when I first met this extremely crazy person; Chintan.

Being only kid at home I always missed those funny sibling rivalries. Though, I requested all neighbourhood guys in my society to be my brothers so that on Rakshabandhan day I can earn some gifts. Growing up playing with them was ultimate childhood experience but they never fought with me.  So I was pretty hopeless of finding a part time sibling to fight with, unless I met Tin Tin.  Yes. That is how I shout at Chintan.

This guy is extremely moody. No one in SAS-9 is spared experiencing Tin Tin in his bad mood days. Life is Unpredictable.. I agree.. but Chintan is way too Unpredictable. You never know when he’ll greet you with his extra white smile and when he’ll walk away completely ignoring you. This Blog is nothing. I can write a book on him “Ten Million Shades of Tin Tin”. Apart from being in a bad mood, Tin Tin is always involved in helping people. He is most sought- after guy in SAS-9. Everyday, Every-now-and-then, Somebody, Somewhere in ISRO Residence keeps searching Chintan. Not only ISRO Residence, he is popular amongst many SAC as well as PRL folks. Right from the security office to manager’s desk, he has his contacts spread. And from The Course Director to hot girls of the Course, everyone needs Chintan for sorting out something or other.

Before this Pilot Project Mania entered in his life, we 5 Indians used to dine together and making chapattis was his regular job. Believe me, I learnt making circular rotis because of him. He showed me the right technique which my mother and my girl-friends failed to make me understand.  We both share this strong Gujju-Gujju bond. While making chapattis and washing dishes, we made fun of all our friends in Gujarati. Some things only Gujjus can understand...  

He has extremely good sense of humour. ‘Extremely’ would be little exaggerated because sometimes his poor jokes are so poor that I feel like crying. But most of the time he gets success in making my funny bone tickle.  That’s why I call him PJ King, many times VPJ (very poor joke) King and sometimes VVPJ (very very poor joke) King. We had numerous taang – khicho (pulling-leg) moments, also baal- khicho (pulling hairs) moments during the course. He has never missed a single chance on getting back at me.. that too with his multiplied cunning motives. The other day, we went for dinner at a Professor’s place. I, being a good girl ate everything which I took in my plate and I already ate more than usual that day, but this cunning person made Sir put 3 more Gulab-Jamuns in my plate just because he was not able to eat what was there in his plate. Jealous!!! 

All this Fun – Fight & Foolishness is going to end in 16 days.. Already Feeling Nostalgic.

Tin Tin has been instrumental in transforming my Life.  He has witnessed my hopeless condition and my transformation from a pessimist to an optimist. I wanted to heal my mind because I was so disable from inside that even my doctor was unable to help. It is him who has the medicine to cure the hidden injuries. I would never forget this favour done by him. 
   
Well, since morning I was upset with him because he showed bad attitude when I shouted at him for getting late but when he called me to have some tea; indigenously made by him, my anger melted somewhat. That is how I decided to write his blog, depriving myself from good night sleep.
      
No need to wish you success and prosperity in your life.. because you are beyond all that. Live your Life on your own terms and conditions... The way you have been always.. Your Imperfections make you perfect.


Sleeping Time.... Good night...

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 ...

Cup Periods.. Best Periods

periods for me meant discomfort unless I started using menstrual cups. I had read about menstrual cups while campaigning against taboos related to menstruation but never tried to inquire more about them, considering that this might be a special product used by athletes. On Jagriti Yatra during our visit in Banglore, I visited stall of Boondh and that was the first time I was able to know more about cups and how any girl/woman can switch from plastic sanitary pads to cups. The eco-friendly reasons led me towards thinking about this product but the fear of inserting something in my vagina didn't allow me to buy it on that occasion. Few days later after Yatra, I got a call from a very popular Doctor and social activist of our city, also my mentor for campaigning against menstrual taboos, Dr Ami Yagnik and she was very keen to promote the idea of using menstrual cups among the Surti women. I immediately resonated with her idea and we decided on starting our campaigns to promote menst...
