24th Dec 2008place bangalore cnt office ...
The day started in a rather gloomy fashion..: ( .... dull and lazy... all i could see around me was a bunch of office goers who also, seemed to me as though they were uninterested in going to office... strange.. na. All felt the same wherever i looked.. ! uh! right from the autowallas, to school kids, and from BMTC buses to the AUDI cars on way to office. ..the long, in fact seemingly long traffic Jam which otherwise interested me, cause i could zipp in thru... with my black RTR ..also felt rather boring..and it freaked me, cause i actually could not find space to sneek in and ride thru.. :( ..
For once i thought and felt that the "mind was choosing to see what it wanted to see" Da Vinci code.. ah !! and hence i indeed felt sucked in by the gloomy feel around me.. !
Even in office at around 10.30 am, it felt like it was early and rather early in office, say at around 8 am.. hummm something rather strange for a Christmas eve.
luckily for me i had a one on one scheduled with Prem, which was long overdue. :D .. jus now thinking..i guess this was the turning point of the day.. which slowly brought back the cheer in to the day and brought in glow even on santa's face.. :)
in afternoon our team met prem again to discuss some strategy..in project process and progress.. in this process my gud friend vikram , committed to attend a meeting at 8pm that same day to prem...which i felt was rather unnecessary...again lemme clarify.. things changed later.. :D
now at 6pm in the evening we( me and vikram) both felt that the meeting was unnecessary..well we were jus too late.. to make any further decision. In fact vikram pulled me in..and suggested i to attend the meeting.. though i initially i hesitated to hop in... i jus did it to get a feel of a Web Ex meeting and to see how discussions happen on con call.. with a rather potential foreign architect...:D ...now why am i loosing focus.. ah the point im trying to make is not about the meeting but about the drive to the meeting... it was simply beautiful.... my self and vikram drove to the meeting in vikram's car.. and the other members went in prem's car... when we reached Brigade office on lavelle Road was the real... change in the feel of the whole space..the street felt so dramatic.. it was all happening here.. the car slowed down... near Nitesh project where vikram's first project is coming up ( nearing finish) .... after which came the turn which gave the final punch to the whole christmas feel ..i guessthis is what i was i was completely missing from the morning.. ... i cant express in words.. the silent car drive where virkam drove very slowly..cause he was searching for the address.. the silent drive with slow music at the back of his car.. really soft music..with the yellow light coming out of m. o. c. h. a turned on the feel, when we were right in front of Mocha the jingles..set the mood up..and beyond m.o.c.h.a all felt very festive.. very bustling with life.. kids on street running across the road, the little Christmas colorful bulbs on the Christmas tree,.. the bright star.. on the TIP of the tree i was in total glee... the feeling and the festive mood had finally sunk inside me.. made me really happy about the feeling that Christmas had finally arrived.. :D quite memorable .... and strange happiness.
merry Christmas....
