Welcoming the new year


The first post of 2008...wow..yippe....new yr...anything really different??lol...not really...but yeah..somethings are different...our resolutions for this year maybe different..ha ha ha ha....

coming back to what this post is all about...the new yr celebrations at my insitute...well we are arnd 200 of us..living in our very own civilization...coexisting..the good..the bad...the ugly...the angels..the devils...everyone...we all live here n exist..n enjoy it :)...

new years is yet another chance for all of us dress up..come down to the field...sit down together...gossip arnd..have fun...mingle..and live it up....and thats what we did...we all came down to the field..arnd 10.30...some of us dressed for the occasion...the bright clothes..the girls with the shimmery n shiny stuff...played some games...like tug of war...tambola..on the spot dance performances...while all this was goin on..me n my grp were gulping down a few shots of vodka (whiskey was damn expensive...lol)..

but then 11.55pm we all were there..irrespective of who we were..whether we like each other or not..whether are personal lifes are in turmoil or not...whether we are the best of buddies or the best of enemies...we all were there counting it down till 0000hrs...and then..the countdown ended...the clock struck midnight...the crackers started to burst...the sky light up...we all went up in the air almost simaltaneously...smiling faces all around...people laughing...smiling...hugging each other to greet the new yr...couples sharing their private moments.(now dont get ideas)....everyone shaking hands with the next person arnd...wishing the very best for the new yr and the life ahead...the bonfire was lit..the stage was set...for another roller coaster of an year....and so was the dance floor..those who wanted to shake a leg..started doing so to the rythm of the "Tenu kala chashma jachda hai".."daila mo..daila mo (tamil song)" and all...some sat down to get some heat from the bon fire...it gets kinda chilly here for the southerners...



it was 12.45am and the cell phone networks werent still free...all jammed up...so waited for some more time..then gotta call from home...spoke to mum..dad..nani..wished them..got their wishes..got to knw my bro was out partying....so spoke to him later in the night....having done all that...went back to the frnds room...finished of our rounds of vodka...and then again hit the dance floor...danced till arnd 2am...tamil..hindi..punjabi..english...u name it...n v danced on all of them...its abt the music baby...finally the event came to an end....but the fire was still on...so just sat there with a few frnds...gossiping...thinking..pondering...chatting...and welcoming the new year ahead....


GOD SPEED

P.S* Resolutions: Havent made any till now..but yes there are some things i ld like to work on..so i ll do that..n probably put up a post sometime... :)

Pics uploaded on orkut :)
