what is new?!?!

Ahh… so long since i posted anything…. I had sooooo many things to write about but I guess I was too busy or maybe lazy.
Well….. hmmm…. I am actually confused what to write about, so many thoughts running in my mind… actually making a mess out there!
Ok… today I will be writing more than a post… so here is a quick review of what all I will be writing today ( and that will help me in getting a better view and deciding what to write first!)
Ahh… I want to write a small little silly poem…. Then, a post about what all has changed because of me coming to Germany and then there is also a story I wrote long ago, still waiting to be posted. Other than that I want to write about the frustration I had gone through some time ago and also about one irritating thing which I think I will be careful enough not to mention on my blog but mail it to my family! Hmm…
Hehehe… so maybe I will start off with the easiest thing and that is the poem! Ahh… well… please don’t bang your heads after reading this one!

“There is a guy, I like him a lot!
Maybe he loves me too, maybe he does not!
Or maybe in his mind he has the same thought,
Maybe she loves me maybe she does not!

Hehehehe……


More such poems are still there to be uploaded…. Some other time maybe, I don’t want to torture my readers away!
Ok… so now comes the list of things which for me have changed (maybe because of my trip to Deutschland). It also includes the things I have learnt here.

Hmm…
• First of all, I got an international experience in every way. Got to know so much not only about Germany, but also (thanks to intercultural management classes) about Mexico, France, Poland, china, Tibet, Indonesia and many other countries.
• Ahh….. Germany Germany Germany…. I know every single thing about it. The history, geography (including the 16states) and also politics. Nowadays I am also reading a book or paperwork on Deutschland (which is not a part of my course) for my own curiosity and also to be able to answer the brainstorming questions from the geniuses of my family about the country. I know my family is surely expecting me to come back home knowing the country A-Z… don’t worry I will be prepared. Ask me anything and you will be the one who will suffer!!!! Muaahhhaaaaaahaaahaaahaaaa!!!
• And people, I know a new language…. Not completely but still atleast I can understand if not talk myself! And I am proud to tell you all that I have quite a decent vocabulary!!!
• Hmm…. Now I know all the rules of fussball, football for all fools who don’t know deutsch!!! Hehehe
• Also got to visit the country side which was extremely interesting!
• Ahh…. The next two points are really interesting! PAY ATTENTION! I can now identify the flags of germany, Poland, italy, mexico, china, france!!! Well that is a big achievement for me, considering that I am extremely poor at GK!
• Hmm… the best part! Ahh… now my crush list goes international with me having a crush on a Mexican, an Egyptian and also a polish!!! Hehehe
• And well, I have gone in several barbeque parties by now!!! Enjoyed partly because all I had to eat was bread and salat… occasionally sheep-cheese and last time I had potatoes which had no flavour to it.
• Hmm… I won 70eu in a COOKING COMPETITION!!! Beat that!
• I got to see soooo many places!!! My photo album is now amazing and worth people’s envy! Hmm… I have become a pakka wala tourist now. Can stay without food for days, walk for miles, sleep at some dingy place and take as many photos as you can… and also READ A MAP!!!!
• I totally got the experience of living alone. Even in hostels everything was taken care of. Here you have to do it all by yourself…. Plus you have to buy all the stuff for kitchen and actually cook whenever you are hungry! The way we talk at home is totally like the way uncles and aunties would!! Sounds so funny!
• Hey how can I forget! I got a new lovely name here!! GYESLI!!! Ahh…. I love that name… adds to my list of nick-names!
• Ahh… and I got introduced to the best thing in the world!! CHOCO NUSSA!!!! Whoever invented that must have lived for more than 100years… hundert jahre alt!!
• Got as many treats as never before...!!! Bless pavam neeta ma’am!
• And yes…. I got myself adjusted to the deutsch keyboard!!! Guess I will have some problems after coming back! Things have certainly changed!
• I got the opportunity to finally buy something for my family! All my life it has always been them who got me things! Now is my chance to show how much they mean to me!!! Well, don’t expect a treasure in my bag…. It is the love you will have to manage with… nothing else, ok?!?!?
• Well, and finally the most important point. It made me connect with my family better. When I landed here, I was too excited that I mailed everybody mentioning the tiniest of detail. I never used to do that in India. And I was extremely happy with their positive response too. Guess, they also might have been equally surprised by that mail. And the mail-sessions still continue…. I now feel restless if I don’t update them about every single thing. And I also have realised how much I talk about them. I usually have no other topic to talk about. Earlier, my videshi sisters never had an idea about what was happening in my life so usually panicked about my life. Now that they know everything they are a huge support!!!
• And well, lets not forget, it gave me topic to write on, right?!?! Richtig?!?!?


Das ist alles!!!! No other point I can think of for now….. no tchus, because I still have two more posts to write (how can you forget what I had written in the beginning?!!?1 you are such a bad reader!!!!)

A Thank You message

Well… this is just to be grateful to everybody who has made a difference in my life. All the people who I am connected to and share lovely memories with, all the people I admire. So here is the list.
First of all, I truly thank my family for always being there. They have always been a massive support and reason for whatever I am now. I might have not realised it earlier but lately I realised that they are the only thing I talk about. 24hours a day, I keep on talking about what my family is, what I used to do with my family and what all they have done for me. It is like whenever you hear me talking, be sure to hear atleast one of the words- family, sisters, mom, dad. They mean a lot to me, more than anything in this world. I am truly grateful to everybody. I don’t know how I can even tell them how much they mean to me. (tears)
Next, I want to thank my friends for giving me so many wonderful memories and being there with me in the best time of my life. The list is quite long. First of all, friends of my colony, Sonu didi, Usha didi, Manisha didi, Rinku bhaiya and Bobby bhaiya for introducing me to strange games I hadn’t known before. Simran for always being there for all the thrills and Ruhi for always giving me a patient ear whenever I wanted to pour my heart. Lovy for putting some seriousness even while playing and for some wonderful time we spent while cycling, playing carom and chess. Anisha, Yashi, Rajat, Krati, Prachi and many others for letting me lead you and truly making me feel like a leader. Thank you all for actually agreeing to whatever I said. I don’t know why you all did that. And yes, Ritika for her special appearances in summer times.
Next, my bus friends. First of all Rajeshwari for always being the friend for sharing secrets and the only one who will lightly yet seriously discuss about career and our future. Strangely I want to thank Renuka also for all the weird things and talks linked with her. It might not have been nice, but was still a different experience. Others include Shardul, who was one of the smartest and naughtiest person I have ever met, Abhinav, who was irritating yet someone whose absence was felt deeply, Gunjan, Prakhar and all the little loud kids of the last seat gang for giving me the name “radio mirchi”, for making my time in bus a real mayhem(hell) for counting each day how many times I turned back and every other thing. More people to name here are Aditya Bhaiya, Archit Bhaiya, Neha-Sneha, Nandini, Aashish, Graphy, Aastha, Amrit and blah blah. And yes, Siddharth for all the embarrassing moments when we fought. Those fights are truly memorable and worth telling.
Umm.. School… not many to list here. Still… dating to the earliest of my friends sukanya, chirag, rahul(if at all they were friends-chirag and rahul) and deepti. Shikha and aditi for being one of my first closest friends. Megha, Priyal, Aakanksha for being there (though for a small period.) Hehe.. Dhruv for all the excitement( ok, I am publicly admitting that he was my first crush, cough) Niyati for all the similarities and Apoorva for all the differences( no offence Apoorva, those differences are the reason for the strong friendship between us). And last but not the least, some friends I made almost when the school got over. Those include Uday( even though I knew and my family admired him since KG1) Abhishek, Gunjan, Shashank, Laveena and Manali. I think I cant add anymore names from school to whom I was really close.
Tuition. I have to split it in two parts. First is my first tuition class. Ahh… that has to be my best best best time till now. Thanks to everybody for making it so memorable. Cheers to Brainfiesta and all the fun we had together. Thanks everybody- Sanjana, Mayank, Pranjali, Divya, Ruhi-Megha(who joined because of me), Aditya, Arpit, Ankit, SIDDHARTH(Hehehe), Nikita, Rohit(I still cant forget how hard we used to slap each other for the silly game-gaalchat), Arpita(I think that was her name, I remember her surname well-shrivastava), chavvi(for her idiotness) and mona, mayuri, shahrukh, amrita(for being indifferent) and also sejal maám, menal madam, devesh sir and all our teachers.
Next in the later tuition, Heena, Sonal, Vairali, Deval are some I really want to name. rest didn’t make much of a difference to me. And specially Vaibhav- he is one of my truest friends. Thanks a lot.
Apart from all of them some others I really want to name here.
First of all DASHORA FAMILY. My god! They really are very special to me. Thank you aunty, for all the lovely achars. Thanks shrikant mahima and shashwat for laughing endlessly with me at silliest of jokes.
REVATHI MADAM: she is someone, I respect the most. She is truly amazing. All the praises in the world will be short to describe her. So knowledgible, so helping and yet so simple. Filled with infinite purity. Thanks a lot madam. Thanks for all the shlokas you taught me and all the morals I have learnt from you.
SHRUTI-SMRITI: I share many childhood memories with these two specially smriti. Smriti was always my favourite cousin. Also everybody from my mom´s family: mama mami and all the perimas and chittis and all my cousins. Lately I have spent a lot o time with Thangam Perimma and she has truly been very nice and sweet to me.

And thanks a lot to the latest generation of my family. All the little kids. Adarsh, Priya, nikhil and Neeti. You all are soooo cute, adorable and charming. Specially Nisha because I have spent so much time with her. She truly fascinates me with all her innovative ideas and charming pleasant energy!!!!!! Love you all, little geniuses.
And finally I want to list those I am connected to recently. All those here in Germany with me. First of all, three of my classmates, Naim, Aparna and Vikarn. Then our teacher, Neeta Maám and special thanks to my lovely German family-the Klemperts for helping a stranger from a different land! They have truly been lovely and kind to me! They never made me feel like an outsider in this country and made my stay so comfortable. Thanks a lot.

And lastly, thanks a lot to all the readers who took all the efforts to read this silly post!

A slipping thought in sleep!!

Yesterday a very funny thing happenned with me. Quite embarrassing if you consider my age. While I was sleeping I suddenly fell off the bed with a big thumping noise. Even as I lay on the floor half-asleep and hurt, I could not help myself from laughing when I heard my sister, who had woken up by the noise, blabbering "ole baby" continously for over two minutes, obviously semi-conscious. As I managed to find my way back to the bed in the darkness, my sister came to me to check whether I was fine. I assured her I was fine and had only fallen from the bed. As she went back to sleep, I had one lingering thought running in my mind: In which way had I hit the floor, as in, on my stomach or on my back because each body part was paining equally bad!
