hi Everyone,
PG meet got over today @ Candies Bandra...
Myself and varun reached very late around 3:45 for MEET.
Though we reached very late but it was really fun to attend such kind of meets to keep myself motives and not to give up so easily for an MBA.

I left home @ 11:15 from ulhasnagar, trains were late as it was raining. I have reached thane and meet varun there. Afterwords we reached Mulund checknaka via auto.

There we waited for bus around 1/2 hr, finally bus came. IT took around 1.5 hrs journey. I was really nice to have chat with varun and ate my home made parathas.

We wanted to get down at Bandra but suddenly Andheri station we saw from bus window then two aunties were standing they motivated us to get down at Andheri as it would take less time by train. They wanted to sit once we would get up Aunties na u never know

I have motivated varun to get down fast from bus as it was dam crowded

Some how we got down bit far from station. Then walking we reached at Andheri station. Varun is bad in the directions I must say and I was also relying on him, my mistake

By mistake we got in Borivali train instead of Churchgate train from Andheri station. One person told me this train won't go to Brandra. I called Varun then we got down at Jogeshwari station.

Then we got in train and reached finally at Bandra. Got in auto but varun as usual after getting down did mistakes for roads. Went in wrong direction.

Finally finally we reached at Candies around 3:45

Meet was almost got over but still we could enjoy it to maximum.

I meet following ppl at PG MEET

chuck_gopal - MICA guy it was nice to talk to him but he left early.

wil_make_it -Anmol..nice guy shared lot of gyan about books, his college and many things

alagati - he was with me since thane to end...Varun I really enjoyed with you. Always be my friend yaar

chop suey - I have been knowing chetan since MOCK cats.. going to NITIE this year.. All the best Chetan for NITIE

pranav10 - IIMI guy..it was nice talking with him though he was about to leave but he spoke with us and told many things

polpot - He left when we reached for PG meet

sudoku - Very sweet PG HQ girl she spoke our purse exchange incident after HP AIPG MEET Bangalore

ritu - I don't know her id she was new to PG meet

ambujesh - My another friend.. I hope you make it to NITIE. Thanks for your motivation for WE

If I missed anyone please let me know

Thumbs up Re: [14 June 2008] The BIG MuMbAi PG Meet! - 14-06-2008, 09:16 PM

Well, first of all, my very sincere aplogies to Neetu and the gang for making that cardinal sin of boarding a bus ( read bullock cart ) from Mulund towards Bandra station

My logic ( very flawed I realise ) was that if we get stuck in the rains, then we shall have no option if the trains stop at sion/dadar area.., again sorry to all for spoiling the party..!!!

As for the description by Neetu, very nice...some typos (bust for bus..!!), kindly ignore them as there is no pun intended Im sure ( neetu's a very sweet girl..!!)

I would just like to add the fight we witnessed between 3 ladies for the women's only seat in the bus which was occupied by a poor small kid of one of the 3 women ( does that make any sense..??!!!)

Also, food at Candies was great...though we had only sandwiches and coffee..!! Hope we have more meets here ( its ok Neetu, we shall take train only..!!)

Great discussions on books, engineering tips and tricks ( xerox machine shop ka idea...superrrr..!!!) and ahemm ahemm Welingkar....!!!

Shall sign off now....eagerly awaiting the snaps from Neetu and Ritu..!!

P.S: A sincere apology to all puys for my repeated "spamming", I pledge guilty and thanks for making me realise that ( guess Im orkutofied..!!)...I promise you shall not see any more "one-liner posts" from me..!!

Cheers,
Varun


Its only in the mysterious equations of love did I find any reasoning of logic...!!!

Din ....14 June...
waqt...(12:30 pm but....13:00/13:30...)
Jagah...Candies...err...for most of us...somewher in Bandra...haha

My journey began as early as 10:30 am when i hopped into 505 ltd wher Mr.Punctual a.k.a chop_sue a.k.a Chetan was sitting like a prince...

On the way got updates abt the fun @ AIPGM'08, and other TP on shoutbox...surprisingly reached the venue @ 11:20 am...gulped a coupla cups of coffee n talks went on with one eye on the door...

Funny part was that all of us were getting confused bout the venue...lolzz

polpot was hanging around but it was diff to spot us cuz we did a cardinal sin of not wearing a PG Tee...

Ok..apparently a newbie.Ritu came up to our table n said "PG" n we were like...yes...n then polpot was ther too...n thus me n chop got company...

From ther we went to a bigger table...and soon came the 'karta-dharta' himself...Mr.Chuck...

hehe..Cometh Chuk...the fun began...with him solving queries of Ritu in his own way...
A few calls from Ambujesh and I didnt leav any chane to confuse him further...hehe sorry bro...
Another newbie Ujjwal was here but left in some time...was fun having him too...

As a few of us went down n came up with grub...there was sudoku...Khushboo...and then the munching began...
A few munches here n ther n Pranav was here...

Amidst all this behind the scene 2 puys were fighting their journey out to reach to the venue...alagati and neetugw...

hats off to their temperment and patience...I'd like all puys reading this to first clap for Neetu...she came all the way from Ulhasnagar for the meet @ Bandra...big inspiration for people who gave kaltis

In no time topics began to flow...we spoke right from fun on threads to spamming to summers to institutes to freaky business plans (xerox machines in front of Engineering colleges to Wadhwa institute of management...hehehe no offenses) to some must reads...

A few notes exchanged between life @ BSchools and how each BSchool and BSChooler carries the culture of it....CGPA vs percentage funda...
Post-AIPGM talks n incidents ...

n yaa...if someone doesnt know ....we also spoke about the OST OF PAGALGUY... yes u heard it right man!!! which will be out soon...

All in all...gr8 meet...good to see newbies,oldies gelling ...was fun...we bid adieu @ around 5:30 pm...

I close my post on a very verrry verrrry serious note...plz dont think i'm joking...Neetu...u better get parathas for us next time...hahaha cherzzz


PS:fotuuuu pleaseeee!!!!!!!!!!!!
