I was sitting in my GPM's cubicle along with Manish.
"What is requirement?" He asked.
"Why is he asking such a weird question" We thought.
"You guys have learnt SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) right" He added.
I said "Well requirement is something that the client needs us to develop..........blah blah"
He gave a blank stare with an open mouth.
"Requirement is the phase in which we try to know what client wants.....blah blah" Manish persuaded.
His mouth didn't close-lest he looked unimpressed.
We tried a lot but none of our answers worked. After about 10 minutes of drama on this question he decided to let the cat go out of the hat-finally.
"You guys really need to brush up your concepts" He said.
"Requirement is a NOUN !!" He mockingly said.
So dear friends you'll be happy to know that the hunter was finally hunted down. Alas!

Ordinary People
Walking on the road, you pass so many people. Some look confident, purposeful, well-dressed, well-maintained. But the majority appear so ordinary, wear ill-fitting clothes, unfashionable footwear, have too much fat or too little, nothing remarkable about them, nothing attractive.
But yet someone somewhere eagerly waits for this unimpressive man to come home every evening.
Someone's entire world turns around the strength of this frail-looking woman.
Someone's very purpose in life hinges on this brash youngster cutting through traffic.
Someone knows only the shelter of these old arms each time their world begins to crumble.
Someone will count hours, minutes, and weep like a child when this pock-marked face alights from a long-distance train.
Someone will cave in, crack up, and never be the same again if this one person disappears from the face of the world.
There are no ordinary people.
PS: Not my thoughts but felt like sharing!

The Unofficial Post of “official” Casting
Well don’t try to think too much about the penned title cos I didn’t either-afterall If u can’t convince: confuse ;)
Disclaimer: The characters that I’m gonna put down now are all based on my personal experiences (& observations!) and any resemblance with any person alive (and working in my office) is NOT purely coincidental-so if you happen to have the privilege of working with me and if you think that the description resembles you in any way then don’t be confused -it is YOU indeed that I’m talking about!
The Boss:
This is supposed to be someone who is adroit in managing (read: manipulating) people to keep everyone happy at the end of the day. Not many people have the knack to do it correctly. The ones who have the capability are generally the ones who are henpecked!! I think the mental torment they face at home makes them a better human being at office it seems-but I’m not too sure about female counterpart on this though!
The Cribber:
If a wonder genie comes and gifts a guy a beautiful young lady-who happens to have it all--beautiful-smart-intelligent-and richly bestowed and if this guy complains about the pimple on her left cheek near her ear then that’s Mr. Cribber for you! God only knows how such minds are daftly created to find the negative needle out of the hay but these guys can be fun too-always get hold of them when you feel bored/low and put some “itching” topic on front of him/her and enjoy the fun-you’ll never know how quickly you’ll start finding yourself more privileged ;)
The Hunter:
Well if there’s one category that simultaneously irks a feeling of laughter and pity-or rather disgust then this is it. These are the bunch of people who come to office everyday with the not-so-pious thoughts of starting a fling with “someone”. They’ll keep a tab as to who is the “new bird” coming in and keep trying in a pathetic way to get noticed-but don’t blame them completely-few of them have succeeded recently
The Confidant:
This is the most important person(s) with whom you can share whats important to you and expect a wise counsel for your issues. But only few can be lucky (myself being one of them) to have these right kind of people whom you can expect to stand by your side whenever you need them-either professionally or personally.If they are with you, you are sure to win. But if they betray you, you are sure to lose.
The Butt-Licker:
There’s a new epidemic or rather a zombie of people of this category. How the hell can I express in words how much I despise them! They’ll do anything to win favor of their superi
ors—they’ll always try to be around them standing or rather leaning forward with the hands clubbed on their backside-just like the mascot of Air India-and their tone of flattery and “service” will give even the best of air-hostesses/waiters a run for their money-oops I think I just told what I think they look like :P
The Diplomat:
In terms of programming if “Butt-Licker” is a class then “Diplomat” with be the derived class-for the benefit of those who are fortunate enough not to have learned these concepts; these diplomats are sub-category of butt-lickers and they posses all their “virtues” in addition to few traits of their own. These people will not only provide the “service” but they’ll also try to belittle their “competition” by indirectly directing their superiors to the flows of his peers-it’s a rat race afterall according to them. (Oops! I again told what these people are in reality :P )
The Guru:
This person is someone from whom you take your inspiration-he/she is someone who is pure enough to command respect and capable enough to lead by example. A Value is a value only if its value is properly valued-hence one needs to properly recognize him/her to be enlightened.
The “Who” Guy:
These are the wonderful people who were created when God had just woke up and started working without having His morning tea! These people seldom have any idea of what’s going on and they don’t give a damn either! People barely know their name or what they do-their opinion doesn’t matter because they don’t have one! These are the most wonderful friends to have because they don’t have any malice-they are someone with whom you can have meals without any official topics being discussed
I’m sure there can be more off-shoots to these categories or even new castings all-together-so let me know what you think and I’ll get back to work now-who knows some waiters or rats might be around the corner ;)

Aideu!
Goodbye...Alvida...Hejdo....Adios...
The heart feels choked with emotion and words won't come out the way i feel right now..You've been the one who have always been there for me since i've been at this place-when the skies were grey, when the nights were dark, when in party and in pain, when all my efforts went in vein-you were the one who provided me the solace and gave me the comfort i required to pacify my nerves to help me see the light of yet another day...
It is the time i dreaded the most, this is the time when my heart feels low but my heads stays strong-its time to let you go-i'll cherish all the times we've been together-the good times-the bad times-the happy times-and the shit times-and although i'll leave you now-you'll always stay in one happy corner of my memory..
Goodbye B-15...aideu Shambhu Vihar!!
PS: Oh i think i forgot to mention that i just moved out of my old flat to a new place..and here's the video dedicated to that place! Hope you enjoy ;)
Cheers!
PS2: The video depicts the room as it was-no makeup-what you see is what you get! :P

Craziest thing i did : Waterfall Rappelling
Its pretty weird..i got a feeling as if i was missing something..and then i realized what it was when i actually visited this scrub wall of mine..So first of all kind apologies and warm regards to all those who visited this blog in the times when i was soooooooo passive...Well i have my reasons which i'll share with you but the biggest news is that I'M BACK!!
A lot of things have happened since i last scribbled here..celebrated by b'day abroad for da first time, did sand bashing in an Arabian desert, met a lot of wonderful people and yeah the usual fun-filled masala times continued all the way..Now lemme tell ya somethin new-something abt what i did last weekend-and i'm sure u'll like it preety much!
6:00 PM-Friday
Yeah thats the time when a weird thought crossed our minds to do something adventurous (OUR-myself and my pal –Tushar Hande....now u can very well understand the state of our minds :P) We came to know that a bunch of folks from our company were going for Waterfall Rappelling and we made an instant decision that we'll join them the next day. They didn't have seats available in their vehicle but that never was going to be a problem since i have my beast ready all da times ;) Well i'm a bit hesitant when it comes to long drives on a bike in a turbulent rainy season that too around a place like Pune..but somehow the adrenaline gush took control over my nerves and there i was raring for the dawn to break the next day!
7:45 AM-Saturday
Just what was expected-the sky was pouring down the heavens and the skies looked like a bag full of wet cotton balls dripping water all over. But once decided devils never take a back step and so i 'vroooomed' my bike-picked up Hande and started our journey..The rains were heavy-the droplets were hitting the face like a needle poking at the soft toy-but the views were breath taking on the old Mumbai-Pune highway as our bike went sailing-cutting through the low lying dense clouds at higher altitudes..70 kms was exactly what i was able to drive and then i decided that the time was right for a hot cup of tea; and as i rested m
y bike on the side stand i realized my fingers had gone numb and i was shivering with cold-and that first HOT sip made me feel like tasting paradise :)
I rarely trust on other’s driving (sorry Hande :P ) but i had become numb so hande took over and we covered 30 more kms before we reached the spot(Kondivade). To our surprise the other folks hadn't arrived yet so we took off on our own trekking our way through to the top of the peak where the biggest waterfall originates..that walk was awesome..the rocks were slippery and algae on top of those didn't help in the wet environment-plus my brand new woodland shoes didn't help my cause as the soles were not rugged enough to grip the slippery surface and hence i did slip a couple of times(phew!!)
But we reached the top in about 45 odd minutes and we found the rappelling professionals had arrived from mumbai and they were ready with the equipments-that place is aw
esome-the waterfall originates from the top and 200 feet below there is a cave underneath the falling water-and this place is about 2800 ft. from the sea level! Whooho!! As we geared up after reaching the top tension started to build-our life was dependent on one single piece of thread-if it broke then there was no way to survive but as i said before-NO TURNING BACK!!
The adrenaline rattled my head as i started rappelling down the waterfall-and the peak of the moment came when i could no longer feel the rock to place my next step-i realized that now it was just air-water-and ROPE for me to survive-i took a moment and swiveled around to see the view and believe me that was tremendously awesome! If heaven was somewhere then that had to be the place-where there was no sand beneath my feet-but only water gushing over my head in the mid-air!! I shouted "whooooo hooo!!!" and now i realized why Tarzan had that grouchy sound every time he flew!! But my God it was mind blowing-super dooper-simply awesome-enjoyed it to the foolest-i mean fullest!! :)
Now the next task on agenda is river rafting-heard its done on kundalika river and that sounds exciting-so dont be surprised if next time you find about that when u visit my wall!!
Adios!
PS: For the benefit of those who haven't seen this amazing creature called Hande-here's his snap taken while coming down the top. Enjoy devil's paradise ;)

Stuck in a moment...
Did you ever felt one day as if you didn't want to wake up...feeling afraid of the sun that burns on top of your abode ruining your dreams...feeling jaded with the fight you've fought till now and you just can't collect yourself up to stand up again on your knees to face the demons that life has invited for you today...
Did you ever felt helpless...as if you are pushing the raft with all your might only to find you getting no where in the midst of the stormy ocean and you wonder how long can you hold on to your artillary with no land of hope in the vicinity...
Did you ever felt so alone that the pain made you feel like walking bare foot in the desert with no one besides you to hold your hand...you see distant images and run an extra mile only to find that it was a mirage and you ask yourself if all you've got in your life is an illusion in itself-you get the glimpses all the time but when you really need it you will always be left empty handed...
You feel sad but you can't help it...Its your war and you have to fight it yourself...You get up..Take a deep breath...Say a little prayer and get prepared for the battle that lies ahead in front of you...Yes you are stuck up but you believe in God~whatever He does is for your good and this is just a phase of life which will pass away~eventually :)
Amen!

Breath taking experience
This is picked up from the today's edition of Mid-day newspaper and its worthy to be shared and thats why its here so take a look!
Like you, this man too, had a dream.
Like you, he too pushed his way into the crowded train
Like you, he too wanted to get going before he got delayed
Unlike you, he slipped and fell in the gap between the train and the platform at Kandivli station.
And eight bogies went over him!
The man obviously has a guardian angel and supportive bystanders who told him exactly what he shouldn’t do — move. And so, the man lay absolutely still as eight bogies of the train passed over him — centimeters from his head. Within seconds the 12-coach train passed and the man clambered out, unaided, unhurt, but too shocked to speak after his near-death experience!

Dont take it literally!
"We squeeze to please"
STOP!! Before you think anything further lemme clarify its not what you're thinking [But i do like the way you think :) ]. It is the "punch" line of the juice counter in the food court of my office. Well i know i killed your excitement but still having a mug of juice over there is enticing nonetheless!
Afterall "What you squeese is what you get" errrr... "What you get is what you squeese"...oops!...gosh now i'm really confused!
Well if that was not tempting enough for you then here's something that'll surely pop you outa your socks! Here's the latest offer from one of the cafe owners in my area (Aundh->Pune)
I've observed that since this hoarding came out, the number of customers going to this cafe has shot up but Can somebody plz expalin what is it all about! :P
Feeling thirsty??
Well just sit back then...relax... and try out the brand new "CHILD BEER"!!
Not sure if vegetarians can dare sip it though :P

Last but not the least the cricket world cup is on in the carrabien so how can i miss a hit at it! The indian team again started the campaign in a pathetic fashion and now if they dont win the next match against Lanka then they'll be knocked out of the tournament...So here's an advice for the Men in Blue which they surely can't afford to neglect! ;)

"Crash" Course Mathematics
Equation 1::
Human = eat + sleep + work + enjoy
Pigs = eat + sleep
Hence, Human = Pigs + work + enjoy
If, Human - enjoy = Pigs + work
In other words,
Human that don't know how to enjoy = pigs that work
Equation 2::
Men = eat + sleep + earn money
Pigs = eat + sleep
Hence, Men = Pigs + earn money
If Men - earn money = Pigs
In other words,
Men that don't earn money = Pigs
Equation 3::
Women = eat + sleep + spend
Pigs = eat + sleep
Hence, Women = Pigs + spend
If, Women - spend = Pigs
In other words,
Women that don't spend = Pigs
Summary:
Men earn money not to let women become pigs!
Women spend not to let men become pigs!
Human = eat + sleep + work + enjoy
Pigs = eat + sleep
Hence, Human = Pigs + work + enjoy
If, Human - enjoy = Pigs + work
In other words,
Human that don't know how to enjoy = pigs that work
Equation 2::
Men = eat + sleep + earn money
Pigs = eat + sleep
Hence, Men = Pigs + earn money
If Men - earn money = Pigs
In other words,
Men that don't earn money = Pigs
Equation 3::
Women = eat + sleep + spend
Pigs = eat + sleep
Hence, Women = Pigs + spend
If, Women - spend = Pigs
In other words,
Women that don't spend = Pigs
Summary:
Men earn money not to let women become pigs!
Women spend not to let men become pigs!

Valentine Blues
Love is the most simple yet suble human emotion. Love has the power to build or mar anybody's life-it ofcourse depends how serious you are in a realtionship ("Honest" relationships are hard to find now a days though :) )
I'll like to narrate a true incident which i once read-it startled me and i'm sure it'll move you as well and it'll make you THINK about the meaning of L-O-V-E..
There was this couple-madly in love with each other and wanted to get married but their families were against that. So they ran away from their place and got married. The guy had friends who arranged the flat and other things for the newly wed couple in the new city-the father of one of his friends was a bigshot so it was easy in the end for him to arrange all this. Now on one of these days the guy was out looking for a job when his friends came in and did the unthinkable-they raped this girl-thier own friend's spouse....
The guy returned home only to find that his wife had gone back to her parents and he was soon taken into custody-his wife had accused him of vicing a conspiracy with his friends and that of raping her...This guy was SHOCKED!! It was the same girl whom he had loved more than his life-the same girl who had so much of faith in him that she even left her parents to share her entire life with him-and now she's the one who was accusing him for the guiltiest crime one can commit!!
His "friends" who were accused in this crime escaped the jaws of law because of the "bigshot" papa and in this moment of desperation,this guy was left with no one on his side-no friends and no family to support him-his family had already broken all contacts with him the day he left their home for that girl. He was charged and accused of severe crime and was found guilty on all those charges. He was given life imprisonment. But the mental turmoil he went through had already affected him-he became mentally unstable....The girl got married again and she's living happily and having her own family...and the guy...well.... today he is living the life of a dead-he eats, he sleeps, he laughs, he cries but he has no idea what had happened to him and neither does he have any clue of whats going on around him...
I know that was sad but yet you can't stop falling in love-can you! A life without love is terrible! Love is like oxygen- love is a many splendored thing- love lifts us up where we belong! All you need is love! I know the last line might not sound original but it does'nt matter as long i believe in that.
"The Greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return"

Dangers of Hinting
The wife was very unhappy with her car and complained a lot to her husband.Knowing her birthday was coming up shortly, she said to her husband..
"Buy me a surprise for my birthday!" she said.
"Something that accelerates from 0 to 100 in 4 seconds! And I would prefer a blue one!"
Happy and excited she was counting down the days to her birthday.
And on the day she finally she got the beautiful present her husband thoughtfully bought....
The poor guy is dead today, and his wife's in jail for murder!

The "LOST" Case!
Well i'm back guys after a two month break and guess what i'm here to tell you something that just happened yesterday night.
Even though we are amongst the so called elite breed of software engineers,we still have to work in awkward hours sometimes(there's a lot more to it & i'll come back to it at some other time). On such an unpleasant & awkward day that was yesterday; i somehow finished my work and decided to have some stuff for my tummy before i leave for my home and it was a already few ticks past midnight.
So after i completed my second dinner for the night with my (small)gang i was returning back from the Foodcourt when i saw one of my team mates hasting(or if i might add-running) towards the food court with a strange expression on her face(here i'll take a chance to admit that i'm poor at times to understand feminine emotions which according to them are always obvious-must say you have devised a very complex algorithm indeed Mr.God and we men are still as clueless as Adam) So i gave her a light smile(a smirk rather) and to my amazement her speed got increased and i just wondered how worse my day can get even after the sun is shining at the opposite end of the world!
And before i could bite my lips further i saw one more team-mate running(i repeat running) in the same direction as that girl went and my filmy mind had already thought 8 possible scenarios(dont ask me those now....what can be more filmy than this-a girl with a strange expression hurrying out somewhere in the middle of the night and a guy running few meters behind her as if his pants were on fire and had to jump in the pool before any "real" damage happens) before i finally caught him & asked what the matter was!
The poor fellow caught enough breath to tell us "She forgot her purse and mobile in the Foodcourt" and within no time the "veer jawaan" restarted his marathon.I wonder how many times does it gets noticed if a guy has lost his wallet-it feels so bad you wont have any takers even though you'll be genuinly troubled(i'm talking about guys here if that was not yet obvious) whereas it becomes an issue even if a handkerchief is lost from the opposite sex(even though how pathetic she might be in looks/size/attitude/....../...../what ever!!)
Haan...so there we were-i never interfere in matters where i'm not required and this was certainly one of those so we kept walking and withing a few minutes we were out of the company campus and were waiting by our cabs thinking when would the couple return. And when you are out there killing your time with such a topic happening around-you always start speculating and thats exactly what we started doing and that lasted for nice long 25 minutes before our CID team(the "lost" couple) returned.
The girl just came and sat next to me with her head down and the guy looked so pale as if all his adrenaline was freezed in the cold winter breeze. Signs were obvious but it looked a lot serious(serious than it really was-a typical feminine trait). I obviously cant stay mum in such an instance so i asked her "What did they say"
NO ANSWER
But it atleast broke the ice and all started talking and the round of questions started. The girl was really "smart"-she had already blocked her ATM card by the time she sat in the car and her credit card was not yet blocked only because she couldn't remember the credit card number!
She finally said " i went to food court at 10 and then ordered 3 dishes-i had two plates in my hand.........." phew!!! oh gosh i wondered how irrelevant can it get even at such times! She continues "Then i came back and we were doing masti (there she goes again) in my cubicle......bla blah.......and then we were watching Pyar ke side effects when i realised i had lost my purse"
Damn....she was watching a movie with our "veer jawan" in the office in their cubicle-thats sick man! And secondly after good 150 minutes the silly girl realizes that she was missing something! Here i must add that i'm flabbergasted(yep i'm not using this word just like that-man i really am!) that she being a girl didnt realize that her mobile was not with her(or in her hands for that matter!)
Anyways she was having a doubt on the House keeping guys(These poor souls are mostly doing all the cleaning work and gardening stuff in our organization and are sternly inspected both on entry and exit) and yet they were in the seat of allegation. I came to their rescue like a defence advocate "Hey you cant blame those-they wont do that-afterall somebody will always point out a housekeeping guy picking up a ladies purse from the food court"(House keeping guys have a neat dress-code and hence are easily recognisable)
So the time was ripe for one more allegation! "If it were only infy employees then we would have got the lost stuff by now but now we also have the BPO staff coming here and i seriously think they can be the ones behind it-see the quality of people coming in from the BPO now a days yaar" said one of the guys and i also agreed on the latter point.
But women should always have the last say and this law didn't cease to exist even at this moment as our lady said "Someone from our team is playing a prank with me" Silly she! Why would anybody want to stay awake in the middle of the night after the horrible day's work!! Then suddenly she realises "Wait a min...i was at ruby's desk hey it might be there....IS SOMEONE STILL IN THE OFFICE??!!!"
Our "veer jawan" finally recalled that a guy was staying back and did the honours of calling him and confirming the "news" of her belongings being safe and "untouched"!!
Well the only positive thing that happened for me is that we got a party from her today for what happened last night.
Phew!! This is how silly they can get but that what makes them fun as well-Like them,Love them or Hate them....you just can't Ignore them...can you??!! :)
