The Year 2013: Memoirs

Well, I will consider myself lucky to be in the right mood to write down the memoirs 2013 post. It’s been quite a while I have blogged. May be, because I got married this year. Though a lot has been said about the institution of marriage, I guess I have had a smooth sailing (minus the occasional fights and feuds, whereby it seems like a topsy turvy land).
I have always been very superstitious about the number 13.It all started with class 8th when I was 13 years old, My performance improved from a top ten student to a Top 5 one. Since then I have always looked for and received luck in some form or the other in Number 13. The year 2013, thankfully lived upto it’s expectations.
I met Deepika on the 16th of December last year. By December end, we found ourselves hung on the telephone calls that lasted for 8 hours in the chilly North Indian winter. Boy!!Never had I imagined that I’ll be hooked up with a girl for such long hours.
In 2013, I happened to celebrate my first valentine’s day and that too in style. I got engaged!!Marriage, Honeymoon followed and finally I find myself getting modeled in the typical after marriage lifecycle.
“Isme action hai,drama hai,romance hai,comedy hai, emotional atyachar hai….lekin boss I’m loving it”
As a desperate single, I had once promised myself that I’ll watch a movie in a hall only with the woman in my life. Thankfully, I managed to fulfill this promise. “Yeh Jawani hai Dewani” was our first movie.This was followed by Satyagrah,Fukre,Chennai Express,Madras Café and Ramleela. Bollywood seems to have lost it completely. I felt like yelling in the hall while watching Ramleela.What kind of movies are they making, and ironically such movies  are breaking all box office records.The movie will have everything except a good story, right from a flashy starcast to Priyanka Chopra doing an item number,whereby she prides her seductive looks in a role of a bar dancer or tabayaf.Not to forget the holi song….Yar acchi movie banao..tohri story to chahiye…Indian public ko chutiya samajh ke rakha hai literally.

Things at the job front have never been better. I’ll remember this year for conquering the fear of technology I had. I now aspire to make a career in IT, something which I was reluctant about.Many people spend lakhs to pursue an MBA, having attained enlightment  on that front,an MBA is not in my list for the near future.
