PAPPA

Well.....stating about my father whom I lovingly call as 'pappa'.At first,I am feeling pretty proud by announcing him as a self made man.Absolutely.I was just sitting in a cafe and sipping my coffee,then i suddenly felt an urge to jot down something worthy about my dad.Jus like for any other guy,whatsoever,even for me,My dad was my childhood hero.No matter,he is my hero even now.Oh my God,I always tried to be like him in many of the aspectsbut you know what,its only possible for him.He's Raymonds.A complete man.He was always there for me and I am pretty sure,he'll be there for me.He always uses his mangement and tackling skills to calm me down whenever I feel like I am gettin' onto a 'rebellion' track.And iits quite obvious for a 20 year old guy like me to oppose and revolt against the existing academics and all.Whateva,as usual,carers for me like hell.But Pappa,that overwhelming care becomes a barrier for me quite a few times.No big deal.He's just into that urban outfit.Unlike my mom,he hardly shouts or raises his voice against anything.He's so cool that sometimes I wonder that is it so easy to deal with different kinda personalities who work as sub-ordinates to my dad..lol....he makes it look easy...Just as V.V.S Laxman does a magnificient wrist work and delivers a beautiful shot.
My dad has got loads of patience.Hardly loses his cool.When I was having hard time and my backwas against the wall literally,he backed me a lot.He had pumped new hope into me.The only person apart from Sandyto back me when I was having a very tough time is my dad.I've committed few mistakes which made my dad lose sleep,he'd spent sleepless nights thinking whats wrong with me .Those nights were really painful.I swear I never ever again let him down.To admit seriously,its real tough to handle an extremist like me,without losing a pinch of his cool and temper.But he did it so efficiently.........LOVE YOU LOADS PAPPA..

Feeling gloomy and elated within a while..

After a long sleep,I just got up from bed by 5.00 in the evening.I felt so gloomy.For the first time in my life,I was feeling so bad that I've missed my college 2day.No matter.I just took a deep breathe and got ready 2 leave for my guitar lesson.The moment,I started my bike,The gloomy feeling had become like helluva burden on me so that I concluded for myself that I cannot attend my guitar lesson for today.Just I was roaming on roads like Rabbi.Suddenly, infact unconsciously,I stoppped my bike at a tea stall which is just opposite 2 'Cafe' coffee day' nearby.Ordered a cup of irani chai and sat on the red carpet that was laid for customer kings.I never felt like laying down laying down in the comfy sofas of Coffee day and having a self served coffee which costs over 75 bucks which is equivalent to the cost of a full day meal of a worker working ina a local saw mill.But this time,I was feeling likely 2 see the faces of self-exaggerated souls who are so desperate 2 prove that 'a lot can happen over a coffee'.So after finishing my cup of tea at that stall,I rushed to 'coffee day' and managed 2 occupy a seat such thatI can have complete look of the whole lounge.I ordered a basic coffee with no extra addings.As I was sipping,I found many couples coming in ,occupying seats over tables.Wondered whether,atleast any one of those couples are not involved in cheap talk.To my disgust,I couldnt find anyone.Everyone are just leaning over their tables 2 have 'close' chat with their momentary partners(rather accompaniers).Even now,while I am writing this,I dont have a clear cut idea of why I am jotting this down.Sorry for that.After 15 minutes or so,to my horror,I found that my ex-girl was sitting with a guy jus beside my table.She was just looking at me and nodding her head as if she was listening 2 what that guy was saying,but I bet,She was not.I couldnt say a word,so,I just cleared the cheque over there and I was on my way back to the tea stall.I was at the tea stall again by the next minute.I cant act for long time.I find myself comfortable at Irani cafes rather than at Coffee bars.Sitting on the pavement,feeling touched by the whole heartedness of "doctor saab"(teal stall owner,thats how people address him as).I cant find more warmth than that at any of the lounges.They are so commercial(infact mechanical).
Sitting over there,having delicious(not sure whether this is the correct adjective)Irani chai,seeing the lighting of the building that even holds 'Coffee day',all my gloom was gone.I even managed 2 see GRE,IELTS aspirants parking their vehicles,rushing towards the classes in the same building.I was able 2 find some sorta hope in their eyes of doing something remarkable overseas.Wondered when I'll find myself leaving this country for higher academics(that doesnt mean that I dont love India).It has always been my passion 2 leave for U.S or any other European geographe.LOng time 2 go.Will wait and see what's gonna happen.Now I am felling elated!!!
