Nostalgic time , I am a very emotional person and since living in uk for so long I thought i would not get this emotional over a issue of being HOMESICK.. but today of all the days it was one of those days ..
I got up as usual 6am went around doing what i do everyday reached work around 9, the usual good mornings, gossip and all booted my machine and after replying to the work emails, getting the coffee sat down to read a blog.. That made me a bit teary..
I then went to my gmail to check my email, I had a link to a song , I rarely listen to songs at work, dont know why or what made me click the link and after the first 2 or 3 lines on the songs the waterworks started, my collegue was looking at me astonished whats happened a grown man with waterworks.. IT was one of those things where i was not crying but eyes were flooded, i could not stop .. the song went on and i cried …
I am sure you all are wondering what a horrible song it might have been, but beleive me if you listen to it you all will know what i mean..
Reminding me of my friends back home and around the world.. Anup, Babbar,cherry, ravi, vikram, ajay, ashwani ,Handle (bhupi), sandy, chander, Balli, gagan, .. that was a different time when we were in college .. nothing to worry about, having the fun of our lives studying in college well that was the idea to go and study rather it was fun time , no worry about the world, not afraid of anything or anyone what all we did in those days …
I remember the famous dialogue of Rang de basanti movie that
Inside the gates of college We made life dance on our fingertips and on the other side of the college life has made us ,
and it is making us dance to its tunes .. and we are just dancing no matter what we do just cant stop.. all those big dreams We will do this , the time when 100 stood in front and we are just 10 the ability to say COME ON.. seems to be slowly going away Get tired so soon of the daily problems and tensions in life…
I so want to go back home GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Jsut a few minutes ago one of my friends Vikram came online this is the conversation i had with him
Bik: OYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YYYYAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Vikram: yes dear
Vikram: paaajiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Bik: yaar good man
Bik: aj bahut yaad aa rahi si
Bik: yaraaaan di
Bik: and u came
Bik: niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Vikram: I know…same here
Vikram: gana suneya …

Vikram: Yaar anmulee
Vikram: Asi China ja ke log tang karte..gana baja baja ke
Bik: yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Vikram: Great song..bahat changa hai
Bik: yes
Vikram: Cheery was just here
Vikram: we were away for coffee
Vikram: just back
Bik: yaar main aa jana india
Vikram: AAAA jaa na
Vikram: Hun tan Babbar vi aa geya chd
Vikram: BALEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Vikram: Tun aa jaaa yaaaar
cud not post all of it got a bit out of hand later… sometimes i feel why am i so , i mean you know ah well i guess thats who i am good or bad THIS IS ME 🙂
I wish and pray for all you reading may you never have to live away from friends and make new ones, stay away from the rooots .. its hard very hard .. all these thoughts keep coming to the mind how we celbrated lohri.. the fights and arguments to whose place to celebrate.. on holi which girls house to go to, and embarasse them… The things we got up to.. THOSE were the days
The Gedi’s in front of the Girls college, the planning to go how to Patao a girl.. nothing use to work 😦
The canteen being the best place the whole day, the samose , the drinking of tea cup after cup… Cholle Puri 🙂 yummmy , the constant bickering of the canteen wala asking for money of all that was eaten …
That reminds me i had started writing about my friends how we met and what we did , I should continue to do so .. Why do we have to be so far away .. why cant we always stay together ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Bade chete aunde ne yaar Anmulle
Hava de Bulle

Click on the song and if you know punjabi you will enjoyyyy but even if you dont you will understand 🙂

Bikram, It is okay to be emotional. Even i get emotional seeing events, watching films and when songs take me back to places I miss. We cannot return buddy, what we left is forever. Even if you return you will realize that all of us are different people now. The innocence of childhood we have traded somewhere on the way for success and other material things.

WE HAVE ONLY A YEAR LEFT TO FINISH COLLEGE!!! THIS CAN’T BE GOOD! :cry:” we could just not accept the fact that 3 whole years had flown by. and if 3 whole years can vanish in a jiffy how long is a year gonna take 😦
and my friends all have different plans for life… so the fact is “we will not be next to each other after a year or two” but we did resolve to stay in touch but i’m not quite sure if it is gonna be the same!!!

Nice read. I can understand what you feel. You miss your friends as you are away; I miss my friends as they are away,most of them settled abroad (sade punjab ch ta fer vaise v bahar vassan da rivaj hi hai :P). And this song is also very awesome. As a matter of fact, the girls college they show in the song is the one where i studied, 12:30 baje college de gate khul jande si te bas fer… :d
