TwEnTy2

Twenty two full years since the disaster first took place and luckily the earth is relatively safe :)

Some questions I was asked as the clocked turned twelve … and since there’s hardly anyone who checks this space unless I insist on them doing it,, I’ll post it here

So how is this birthday different from the last one???

Hmmm.. Apart from the fact that I’ve lost more hair and i look much better now there is no real difference or probably the eye numbers have also increased
Well,, there is one .. Last year I went broke after throwing a party, this year I’m broke before throwing one :)

So how does it feel to be twenty2??
Feels good, like it’s the best thing that can happen to anyone, Q1 is over.. Just two more quarters to go before u’re dead :)

Oh actually its amazing, the only problem is that women in the wrong age group are the only ones swooning over me …

Some excerpts

“oh !!! u’ve grown up huh ???”
yes aunty,, I’m sure u don’t want a demonstration

“u look big??”
Yeeaaah !!! u must’ve guessed ??

“U look like ur dad??”
Normally we do.. its not ur son’s fault that he’s got exotic nepali looks,, uncle should be blamed for negligence on a nepali honeymoon that went wrong J

“My daughters’ grown up too.. kids grow up so fast!!!”
yes she has,, in all the wrong areas.. over grown seems more apt!! There is no way I am getting close to that bulldozer without dad buying me an insurance for accidents

........

and some more :)

What have u achieved in the last one year??
Good question…

Any targets for the coming year??
Oh… loads of them.. Achieve the targets I set for last year and the year before that.. AND like I said last year,, this year I’m going to achieve them and let my actions speak for itself .. :)

Where do u see urself in five years??
Heheheh … with ur wife and my kids :)

Any resolutions???
Well..
I want to try and bring peace in the world, eradicate poverty and help people fight illiteracy :)

And how do u plan to do all that??
Well …errrr … good question

What do u plan to do in the coming year???
DO???
Well I want to …. Ummmm … sita, gita and rita … in that order and sunita and sangita on first come serve basis

How come u’re still single??
Actually I’m Just waiting for her to get pregnant, so her dad will have to convince me to marry her and take her for a honeymoon and he’ll probably end up paying for it too :) ....sounds like a plan???

The party looks dead?? Why is everybody looking so boring??
Stop talking!! we’re waiting for u… Just drink the shit mixed in ur glass, the party starts after that. And u wont look very happy in the morning.. Trust me :)

and now the "thank you" speech :)

awis dude .. thanks a lot for ur call.. i kept the promise of doing something really crazy which i've never done before .. scandalous details in an email :)

guys i missed all of u .. thank you for ur emails, scraps and messages ... like trust me i read each one of them over and over again.. cos it was a little hard spending a very special moment without the special bunch of people .. must've have spent close to two hours just thinking of all the times we've spent together... like my friends kept asking me why i kept grinning for no reason every now and then :)

well thats it from me ... keep the mails coming :)
