It was 31st Dec 2009, last day of the decade started as usual getting up at 1 in the noon, no mood to eat at mess( @ kadi pakoda) and would be injustice to chole kulchewala if I don't turn up at year end. But that was the only thing common out there. I was never so happy, that year 2009 was coming to an end, and was in all moods to celebrate the ending and beginning of the new time and era. Putting all the worries of placements aside was all set to enjoy the day.
Managing the bike took off on the road tearing the traffic and we three Arpit, Sakina (IMT mates) and me reached the Delhi the city with blend of cultures, religions and ethnicity but still unified by its uniqueness. Soon we were joined by Shubham(other IMt mate), aim was to purchase mobile for Shubham but we ended up doing every other thing from that. Variety in food and tastes something unique about Delhi was explored to the best. We enjoyed the dishes ranging from moong kid dal (@local thela) to 500 bucks sizzler (@ gola sizzlers). Just amazing...
Landed back at IMT by 10 P.M. was all set to sleep after the long day but there was something more in for me. Checked mail and learnt "picture to abhi baki hai mere dost" (mail from SAC for party at AMPHI). The party started at low note but the Cake Cutting ceremony by mess com was the Ice breaking (maximum cake I ever had at any IMT event) and then clock ticks to the new era of 2010 and the feelings and emotions of the people hugging each other and wishing for the wonderful new year ahead, were the most wonderful to be seen. Really brought tears to my eyes. And then started the dancing on to the tunes of the music. Though was tired but couldn't put myself off for a long and then was the madness in me coming out in different dance steps. Really enjoyed dancing out with friends and recalling back the memories of the year 09.
Returned back to room by 2 and just for a check, looked for the keys of the bike and suddenly realized that I had forgotten it in the bike itself. I was just lost and thought I don't want a year to start with such an incident, ran to bike and found the keys bringing great relief to me. Was just planning to sleep but there was something better in store for me .Met Ankit aka Mama on the way and went along with him to their lobby. Another party, other friends but the feelings were same- Everybody happy (some with what it brought to them and some just at its end) with 2009 coming to end and excited about what further lies in for them in the sack of 2010.
And here comes to an end the day where I only didn't bid a thankful and cheerful good bye to 2009 for all the learning and opportunities but also welcomed the 2010 with the same fervour and excitement.
Missed some of the near and dear ones but still it was a fun filled and memorable.
All set to take up 2010 and every year of my life hence forth with bets of mine and enjoy it to the fullest.
Every circumstance is an opportunity just you need a right lens to see at it.
With this an adios for now see u in the new morning with the brightness of Sun.
