2010...A year for me...


2010 was smooth start. Year started with a family outing at Diveagar beach, lot of fun in the sea and full time masti with cousins. What a relaxing weekend it was..!!

It was a year when I had first time cut 4 cakes on my birthday; One delivered from my best friend at midnight, yummy chocolate cake; Two, with my friends early in the morning; Three in the office, my all time favourite Baker’s Basket chocolate cake (its simply delicious) and fourth one from my dear mom the sweet blackforest cake. Oopss...so many calories in one day :P
February came with very good news, my most awaited promotion at work with an outstanding rating. Phew, after working hard for 3 years in the project I finally got promoted to the next role. Even though salary was not that amazing but I was still happy (something is better than nothing after the bad recession time).
March: Another trip to Diveagar beach but this time with my buddies. He have being planning a trip from last 3 years and finally all of us could take some time from our busy schedule and enjoy a weekend. Forgetting all our worries and frustration, we had a wonderful time.
By the month could end, I came to know that I would be travelling to New York, US in April. Wow, what an excitement it was. Shopping, packing and hell lot of work in office. :)
And one sad part was my team lead and my lifetime buddy now
was leaving the organization. Her absence is still felt, though we are still in regular touch.

April to September in USA: Amazing amazing amazing time of life. I could be on it that this was the bestest period of my life. I had never had so much fun and got a chance to be myself ever like this. I did, I ate, I shopped, I wore, I roamed the way I liked.
I could take one of the biggest decision of my life (hoping that it is best for me...and I know it is). Life moves on. Everything happens, happens for good.

Anyway, so US was an awesome time, it
was all Summer when I was there so every weekend I used roam around with my dearest friends. Thanks to them they really made it happened for me and my darling daddu who had clicked thousands of snaps of mine on every nook and corner i demanded :). To be honest, I have around 5000 snaps clicked :O. Hats off to you guys for bearing me so much :).
I did try my hands on cooking and lots of successful (for me) experiments (I pity all those who had to actually eat it...but it was not that bad..ok!!!) :P
The memories are still so fresh in my mind.
October-November: Time back home. Its always good to be home and in my lovely city Pune.
It was just a running around time. My best friend was getting married. With all the ups and downs during these two months, she finally got married and happily living her married life (she said so at least :)).
Not to forget , I lost an opportunity which would have given my career a new turn.:((
And the year came to end with another wedding and this time it was my dearest Daddu who got married to the love of his life. Beautiful wedding and we all had lot of fun pulling his leg.
So, another fantastic year comes to an end.

Waiting eagerly for the next year to unfold all the surprises it has for me.
Wish you all a very Happy and Prosperous New Year. May all our dreams carried forward from this year and new ones get fulfilled in 2011. :)


Cheers!!

Why..??

The unanswerable questions of life...

Why is it always that you do not finish studying before exams?
Why is it always that all tasty foods are full of calories?

Why is it always that the person you love the most, hurts you the most?
Why is it always that the thing what you like the most, is not in your budget?

Why is it always that the person you trust the most, breaks your trust?
Why is it always that the bus is late when we are before time?

Why is it always that we do not have enough saved money to buy something and then we say next time, pakka?
Why is it always that the queue in which we are standing moves the slowest?

Why is it always that time runs too fast when you want it to stop there?
Why is it always that you get reminded of the person, you wanna forget?

Why is it always that it rains when the only day you not carrying the umbrella?
Why is it always that you missed the call, which you are waiting for long?

Why is it always that people remember the only bad thing and forget all the good things?
Why is it always that you fall short of words when you have to pour your heart out?

Why is it always that you have some urgent issue when you have to leave early from work?
Why is it always that someone calls you when you sleeping and asks 'Were you sleeping'?

Why is it always that it feels that we receive the worst from the world?
Why is it always that we have so many questions on our mind?

Why me?

Why...??? Why...??? Why...???

My first blog...Its me...

Never thought I could write something..but just thought of giving it a try..
Hmmm..let's start with who am I??
I am known to the world as Ms Jyoti Agarwal..Friends call me Jyot, Joe, Joyee, Jo or J....
Short, a little fat..oops I should say bulky, someone who likes to do things from heart..
Smile..that's what ppl observe first about me...
Care for near ones but careless about the world..
Talkative...I just luv talking and keep on talking non-sense things the entire day...I rarely speak something sensible.. But when I do, nobody takes me seriously :P
People think i am reserved initially until they know me...but then they never dare to say that...
Bubbly, chubby, frank...like to be straight forward...if I don like something..that means I don like something...I don't like to pretend...I hate people who show off...
Like to roam..though haven't seen much places...but ever ready to roam...
Sometimes emotional...sometimes practical..sensitive...sometimes get hurt easily...possessive about my special things..
Sometimes too frank..which makes me rude..
Friends say I argue a lot..stubborn..yes I am..but easy to be convinced..
Not the girly one...mostly in jeans and a t-shirts with sports shoes...hate family drama...
Wanna get something good of this small life..Do not wanna conquer the world but just want a smile on my face always..
Simply, happy go lucky types...
Live and let live...
That's what I am...complicated???
