Growing old and senile :))

Its my Birthday today. Birthdays are gentle reminder of one's aging process. I am supposed to be happy today, so am I. Everybody from my parents to relatives to friends from India phoned and wished me. Actually the first call came at 12 am today morning. Started the day shouting at the office administrator for not sending the bus to pick students from the hostel. Waited outside the hostel for an hour before we took a taxi and came to college.

Mariamma wished me yesterday night as is her habit. For the last 3 years I know her, she has been wishing me every 26th feb at 12am, and then she calls early morning too. This is the first time after meeting her that I am celebrating a birthday without her.

I am happy, not because its my birthday but because of the birthday present I got. It came across as a job, which I desperately wanted and that too back in India. Last night at 12 am , Abhishek Sood, my Singapore roomie came to wish me. It was rather surprising that he remembered. It was very nice of him. So did Kaushal Sheron as we both share the same birthday. But by today morning everybody knows and all have been wishing me. So for the last 3 days I have got many wishes and congratulations.

I feel like partying but then whats the fun without friends. I really miss my friends back in Blore and offcourse my dear Mariam. I was planning to go to India today but appa said not to come. Here in Dubai I have no idea where to party or what to do. I plan to celebrate at my sis place this weekend, with my cute little niece. Till then I will come to the college and help my colleagues get placed!!!
