2 Years of Holding hands !!
I hardly thought that a working environment was conducive to a lasting friendship....But it became true in my case...It is really amazing how close u can become with people whom you have never even met before...
It was 7 of us girls and 3 guys .... from Chennai .. travelling to big bad Mumbai ....
I never got close with the guys ... they were good.. still there was never any affinity with them...
It was quite the opposite with the girls... We became so close in the first meeting itself that it was hard to imagine that we had not known each other only a few hours before that ...
There was some kind of a pull between us ... Maybe it was because we were totally dependent on each other due to the fact that we were so far away from family and things that were familiar.. still i can imagine how hellish it could have been if we had really not liked each other ...
All 7 of us were not maybe meant to be together .. One left right in the first month ... She had better things to pursue .. like studies & marriage .. and we hear that she is quite happy....
Each of us went through a transition phase .. where we underwent drastic attitude changes .... Things that seemed wrong suddenly became right..& vice versa... We are not the same people who stepped into Dadar Station from the Chennai - Mumbai Express 2 yrs back ...
There were other friendships that were formed .. equally strong .. equally dear and close ones.... Most of the time I hang around with my somewhat new friends as compared to the older ones... But I find no difference between the 2 of them .... Even if I do not speak with some of them most of the time.. I never feel awkward when i do talk...
I have completed 2 yrs of tenure last March 7th ... I have got such wonderful friends that so many days of heartaches... tears... & sadness for so many things that I have experienced these 2 yrs seem to melt when I just think about them...
A word called 'sadness' just doesn't persist because of the joy of holding hands with my friends - old or new !!!

Reference Frame: Finally, it all depends on how and when you are looking on things, which makes you happy or sad.
Every thing changes, that’s why we all are alive.
You will be bored when,you will see everything is going in the same way.
But, a normal person like us, refrain changes, because we are not strong enough to accept new things. We all are very much skeptic about New friends/things, why this person is talking so nicely to me? Why he/she is so good? Whether he is trying to pester me?
But don’t you think that, when you were in engineering, you had a different set of friends, now you are having a different set of friend, and these friends are also equally, good and important.
The way you are writing about your friends, shows that you are having very close relationship with them, and close relation always remains there as long as you want them.
Lots of funds na..

somehow i never got such got opportunities...
nor did i stick on 2 my work place for long enough 4 something of that sort 2 happen....
i wonder why things r so! why am i so alone all the time....? new city, new ppl, new settings...even after 3 years its still new 2 me..
but i hav fond memories of my work place n the lively environment n ppl around...even fonder memories of my college dayz....the canteen, our C bus, lectures etc...
never a sense of sadness however...shud b bcoz of the busy schedule...or may b bcoz i'm always in the present or in the future..is that good or is it bad?? who knows?
