The Perfect Ten!

First of all, this is not the blog which was supposed to follow Teaser Preview. Secondly, I wrote this exactly a month back but couldn’t post it. Here it goes …..

12th June, 2005. I arrived in Mumbai, the city that never sleeps. I was excited. I had come here to join in an MBA programme. I took this institute as a platform to develop skills, get exposure and make something out of myself. I got exposed to new people, different cultures. I was performing well. But something was missing. I interacted with most of the people. But was not sure of people around me, not sure of myself. Gradually, on the academic front, my performance was going down. This was all due to lack of motivation, dissatisfaction from life….. I would call it a vicious circle.
And then nature conspired for me. It all started around December. We, a bunch of like minds, all started coming together. By the end of December, or I should say in the New Year, the year of 2006, we had a perfect gang ready. If I was asked to give it a name I would call it Gang D. We have ten people in our gang. A perfect Ten! I think we are the craziest people in the world. I want to give a brief description of each of them (although I feel I can write a book on them). I would mention them in alphabetical order.

1) Well this person has captured all the moments of our mischief to make them more precious. (Thanks to his 6630). He can share with us even the most embarrassing moments of his life. Man, you need guts for that.
2) The next one can grasp anything at the speed of light. He is a very down to earth person. We run to him for solutions whenever we don’t understand anything in any of the subjects, even Yoga. (Don’t get surprised. Yoga is part of course. I hate getting up for it early in the mornings. Sorry got carried away by yoga. Can’t help it. It sucks that much!)
3) This one is chief chef of the gang. He knows everything under the sun about cooking. Once he accepts someone as his friend, he cares a lot for that person.
4) Here comes a gal! Although she is a pure veggie but can grasp any joke at the speed of light which is Non-Veg in nature. She never gets angry even though we tease her the most. We love her.
5) The next guy is best person for an Ex-tempore performance. A real entertainer and a great friend with whom you can share anything.
6) She is amazing. Out of allotted 24 hrs, she is SMSing for 16 hrs. I am not sure whether she sleeps or not. She has taught me how to enjoy every moment of life without any guilt.
7) He is Hot. He is Shocked. He gets a shock on the simplest piece of information. That’s the funny part of it. A party is simply incomplete without him. He is so loveable. I fear him the most.
8) The deep thinker in our gang. A very emotional person. I admire him for his guts. The most popular guy among gals.
9) Well alphabetically this is me. I am ….I don’t know. They will tell you better.
10) Last but definitely not the least, this person is the model of our gang. He is such a cool person that he would not panic even if the earth starts shaking at 9.5 on the Richter scale.

Well this is my gang- the Gang D. Life has been really kind to me. I feel blessed to have them in my life. I have done so many things with them, which I have never done before. They give me the confidence. I know that there are a few people whom I can always rely upon. They tease me, pamper me, and scream at me because they love me. I can’t trade this gang for anything. These are the best days of my life.
I got up at 3:30 AM to write this blog.
Oh God! I thank you for this.

When I wrote this blog a month back I was in a positive frame of mind. But now as it is not so, I realize their importance even more. Even if I am in bad frame of mind I feel lot better when I am with them. They make me forget my pain. I would have been dead a long time back had they not been there. Life sucks, but it can’t kill me now.
God, I thank you again!
