Hope & Wait..

She:
His arms held her in full swing,
When she was busy working,
It was a suprise,
Her laptop was prised,
He held her close to his heart,
A move that was very smart,
She gave in & cuddled,
After long she felt loved..

He:
He tried hard to woo,
His love for her was true,
Last night they danced,
This was his last chance,
He just tried to be there,
Whenever, wherever he can,
Just like how she was,
In difficult & happiest of his times..

He+She:
His stare.. His eyes lured,
Her voice.. Her lips cured,
His arms griped around her,
She could feel the thrust,
He hoped.. For this moment to last..
She waited.. For this moment to pass..!!

Its always a pleasure knowing people...

Its always a pleasure knowing people... We meet interact and then hear their perspective.. So many things you agree and so many you differ in... But still its always nice to have known someone... Someone special.. Some acquaintance.. a Hi-Bye Friend... Or even a close friend... Yes at times it might just end up in a fight.. But so what? Least you found a new reason as to why a fight happens :P... You learn... then re-learn! And it extends the horizons of your perspective...

There are times you feel you have seen enough but then you meet someone with more horrifying experiences and then it dawns on you.. You went through nothing and you empathize... A common fallacy everyone makes is by saying, "I understand".. Never say it if you don't mean it.. The path you choose to solve a problem may not be the right path for him/her... You need not understand but just be the shoulder that can comfort... By either physically present there or emotionally present on the other side of the phone :)!

As you meet and experience more and more people you realise how little you can judge about some one and how different each one is. Cheers to all the people whom you have known and to the people you are yet to know....! I close my note with what I started... Its always a pleasure knowing people... :D

Quick quick... Slow!!

Quick quick... slow
Quick quick... slow
Turn about, and
Round you go
Giggles and Laughs
Tickles and Falls
Back again
On the floor!
One more turn
Your heart wants more
Happiness and Smiles
'Ole!!', the group cries
One more step
The final stance
Claps & Hoots
That's the Magic of Dance!!

Road to MICA..

MICA has been always a dream. A dream that I wanted to achieve since I was in 12th. One documentary of Mudra (the ad agency) and its school MICA in the year 2004 on BBC left a footprint. This was the only college I ever wanted to be in and HERE I AM!!
So I can pretty much say I know how it feels on achieving a Dream!!
Right from the time I walked through the gate for my GE/PI I knew this is where I had to come. On 12th April my GE and case study was done at around 11.30. My interview was the last one for that day. Honestly I was pretty prepared for the interview except for one question. WHY MICA??
I could have answered that I wanted to pursue this since 5 years. I doubted if that it might just not be taken seriously and consider that as a bluff.
The aesthetics of the campus-its brick walls sandwiched between cement-no plaster & colour. Pure and crude earthen colours of the buildings with lush green lawns was in such a perfect sync. My interview was scheduled at 5.30 P.M. I soaked as much as I could during this 6 hours on the campus-looking around, exploring or just sitting in the auditorium with green purple pink & blue drapes hung on either sides of the wall *I felt as though I was at Hogwarts ;)*. I blinked and finally the answer to my one final question “Why MICA?”
The answer was simple and straight, “It is a natural choice”. That’s when I realised I that this was just a place where I had to be. No fancy answer could have been devised for this one question. If I could just say it with the same passion that would be all.
And yes indeed it worked!! BAM! A spot offer! Man makes his own destiny by the choices he makes today. And this is one of those choices I shall never regret in my life.
And I am not judging it too early! These last 4 days at MICA showed me I am at the right place. My interactions with my peers, the alumni & the faculty showed how like minded they are. One night our conversation centred on paranormal activities, tarot & different sources of energy & next morning we are in the auditorium comprehending what the alumni was speaking about the companies, the market, job opportunities & careers. This is one place where interest & career are on the same plate. It’s the versatility that this B-School encourages.
These 4 days unusually so, I haven’t missed home or Mumbai. I already feel a part of this family welcoming me to The MICA-World.
