Tirth's and Kiran's b'lore Visit!!

     This post should have been posted long time back but I wasn’t having access to TLTE blog now I thnk I can post it bindas!! :))))))

     Its all about the meet that happened in b’lore on 30th December, 2005. But this time it included the very own bong turned gujju dada tirtho (from IIMA) :DDDD and Kiran aka alchemist from ITIB. The others were the usual members --- to be specific 4 b’lore TLTEians whch included -- kosha, Pommu, Samyak and myself . Actually it was a surprise meet and the surprise factor was tirth  Tirth, Samyak, kosha and myself had a surprise meet on 29th dec. U can call the meet on 30th dec as a sequel to the one on the previous day :DD. Tirth was on a bharat darshan sort of tht too within 4 days time :DD Hats off to u tirth for having spared some of ur valuable time for we poor b’loreans :DDD

     I had met kiran earlier also on my way to baroda. A silent guy as I had mentioned he never takes the initiative unless and until his sweetheart’s name is not mentioned ;)))) But overall a very sweet, silent and all the more shy person :PPP

We met at the usual meeting spot Cauvery Emporium, MGRoad. Since we had met late and since it was a weekday, can say almost weekend, I mean Friday :D, we met late arnd 7:00 pm. Kiran, Kosha, Samyak and myself were the first ones to reach the meeting point. Thereafter we were waiting for tirth and pommu(the late-latif) to arrive. Finally by the time pommu and tirth came it was almost 8:00 pm. The nxt headache thn was to decide upon where to have our dinner. We ended up suggesting sagar’s (famous for veg. food), Andhra restaurants(whch tirth totally boycotted), some other fast food restaurants and donno wht all :Ooooooo Finally we ended up with Chung wah (A Chinese restaurant :DDD).

     Now once at the restaurant, the ordering part started and during ordering some complications occurred. Tirth being a hard-core non-veggie did the non-veg ordering part and myself ordered for prawns whch I hope bcame the culprit for spoiling the mood of many in the gang (not mentioning much coz don’t wanna spoil ppls mood again) :)) Sorry guys for having done tht. But yup have to mention Samyak scolded me a lot for tht, but thnx to tirth, kiran and pommu for getting me bak to normal :))) Mind it pommu left soon after the starters coz his parents were in town and spl thnx to him for having made it this time for the meet :PPP.

     During the main course we (included kiran, kosha, Samyak, Tirthankar and myself) were pulling each others legs, doing a fultoos time pass watching clips on tirth’s laptop. There was also a romantic chemistry happening between a 1 yr old girlie and tirth. She was consistently staring at tirth and he was also blushing a lot :PPPP We took snaps of tirth’s sweetheart as a memory for him :PPP waise bhabhi choti hai lekin kaafi sahi thi ;)))))

     Once completed with the dinner party we decided to make a move. After dinner Kiran, tirth, Samyak and myself had a meetha time with the meetha paan from a paan shop nearby. After mincement it was rose giving ceremony ;))). Tirth gave rose to both the so-called ladies of TLTE kosha and myself :DD. Samyak was quick enuf to capture those moments on his digi cam. It was tirth who was doing the blushing while giving the rose, rather than the ladies :DDDD

     Finally once completed with the party kiran and tirth left for their respective destinations hostel and railway station respectively. And we three TLTEians were all set to get bak to our destinations. Wow wht a wonderful way to party with outsiders :DD Sahi main TLTE rocks !!!!!

     Truly Tirth a nice surprise and kiran thnx for making up the time. I thnk surprise parties should b organized more often :P So tirth when is ur nxt surprise party :DDD:PPP A gala time arnd the end of new yr thnx a lot TLTE buddies :)))

Paratha Party!!!

     This weekend was something special with a “Paratha Party” happening at the TLTE headquarter, b’lore. Venue : Mipple’s house. As per our plans all the TLTEians in b’lore were supposed to gather at mipple’s house and then prepare parathas for lunch. But as it would have been, finally there were only six TLTEians – Adi, Kosha, Mipple, Prankul, Samyak and Myself. The others who didn’t turn up, u missed a hell lot of masti, food and music :PPP

     The party began 1 hr after the scheduled time all coz of some late-latifs and late-latifs only :DDDD Finally all of the members and the raw materials for the paratha party were ready by 12:40 sharp :DDD Now mipple was assigned the task of making the dough for paratha,

Mipple with Dough!!

     Kosha was taking care of the potatoes required for paratha. Mind it kosha is very particular abt cleanliness :PP She ended up washing the potatoes ample amount of times before they bcame a part of our delicious parathas :DD

Kosha With Potatoes!!!

     Adi helped in chopping the tomatoes and all the more in devouring a lot of them. I guess if he would have chopped sincerely and ate less we would have had 2 plates of tomatoes :DD.

Adi Struggling with Tomatoes!!!

     Prankul was pretty happy chopping the chillies (bahot achche se kaattha hai, achcha cook banegaa :PP).

Pranks Struggling with Chillies!!

     Myself was pretty busy chopping gingers whch took hell lot of time :DDD But u knw wht my ginger cutting art imbibed curiousity in pranks, adi and Samyak :PPP. Pranks was so mesmerized he all the way went home to get his handy cam to shoot my ginger chopping art!! :DDD

Myself Struggling with Ginger!!!

     Oops someone is missing, yup our very own spammy aka Samyak. Surprised where he vanished – he was pretty much busy time passing taking photos and shooting videos :DDD Samyak ne kaafi madad ki hamaari -- khana khatam karne main :DDD And haan he tried cutting my finger also (Megs make a spl note, next isi ko tapkana hai :DDD)

Samyak caught time passing!!!

     Finally Kosha tai did the baking part of the paratha. Mind it the major credit goes to our very own chef of TLTE mipple who did all the paratha making. Even I tried hands at baking and got loads of scolding. Finally I ended up the cooking ceremony by making salads JJ I had always believed the phrase “Too Many Cooks Spoil The Broth” But it turned out to be totally wrong. This time so many cooks made the paratha party a huge success.

     Meanwhile during all these paratha making tantrum we were having a gala time -- pulling each others legs (the usual stuff), dancing, playing mischiefs and listening to some fabulous and mesmerizing songs – spl thnks to adi and his ipod :PPP waise forgot to mention mipple was the most luckiest coz he could listen to his favorite song -- Ek baar Aaja Aaja (from aksar). Every time tht song used to come mipple and myself used to dance like nythng and in the end found all of them dancing to the song :DDD In btwn pranks, adi and myself tried killing spammy but alas lagta nahi spammy itni jaldi marrne waalon main se hai :DDD. And haan thnx to pranks for capturing all those moments live!!! :))

     Once everything was ready we helped ourselves with the delicious parathas, curd, achchar, salad, sauce and juice :)) Wow wht a delicious lunch JJ It wasn’t only coz of the parathas but coz of the effort we had put in and the time we spent making the lunch tht made it all the more delicious. An awesome lunch far better than any 7-star or 5-star hotel :)))

Party Time!!!

     Once the party was over pranks left all the more coz he had some work. And to be frank pranks missed the best part of “Paratha Party”—we had the party concluded by bumps for Samyak. Mind it here kosha and myself didn’t leave a single moment to kick Samyak.. aahh wht a time it was.. Samyak xpecting more such moments!!! :PPPPP Finally everyone bid adeau and thus ended the best moment in TLTE meet I had ever had!! :))

Conclusion : Sahi main agar meet karna ho toh aise jahan everyone knws each other. The memories of this TLTE party was awesome, xpecting more such parties. A gr8 time to remember throughout our lifetime. Thnx everybody for making the day this time (first time) without any nakharas :DD!! :)))))
