The Best Gift You've Ever Recieved (Yashita)

So I suppose not many people know me here :) And I take the whole blame for it. I have not posted since my introduction post and no, I am not going to wear you guys down with any excuses :) Anyway, my post is quite apt considering the current situation BUF seems to be in. So here's about the best gift I have ever received :

Sneha was A's very good friend. Therefor it seemed obvious that Sneha would come quite often in hostel to meet A. She would always say hi-hello to us, the usual pleasantries, chat with A and leave. I never much interacted with her and I, at first, didnt even like her. But one day I bunked one of my lectures and came back to the room. I saw Sneha sitting in A's room. I thought it would seem very rude if I just walk off from there, specially when she had seen me, without saying anything. So I went upto her and asked after her. And we generally started talking. I guess it was that moment. We both didn't realise when time flew by us! We were so engrossed in our talks that it was A's arrival that made us realize we were talking for almost over an hour!

I read somewhere that God makes us meet many wrong people before we meet the right one so that when we do meet the right one, we can fully appreciate how special that person is.

There have been many ups and downs in my life. And during one of my lowest moments, when I didn't even have the so-called friends, it was Sneha who stood by me and helped me. All the way. There were times when I couldn't understand what I felt, wanted to feel or should feel. It was in those times when Sneha understood me and gave me strength to carry on. There are many things I cherish in my life, many people. But the one gift I will always hold next to my heart is the one because of which am here today, able to cherish other gifts.

We are lucky to have a choice. We have the choice to choose our friends. And our enemies. But in the end it's not the enemies who matter. But friends.

Music is what feelings sound like... (Yashita)

Am back and back with my picture and my favorite music!

And the night shall be filled with music,
And the cares that infest the day

Shall fold their tents like the Arabs
And as silently steal away.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow


Like books, I don't listen to any one particular genre. I can listen to any kind of music. Music is music. Be it rock, blues, jazz, instrumental or hip-hop. But if there's one song that is my eternal favorite, then it has to be November Rain. And anyone who knows me knows how crazy am about this song. So, here's November Rain for you people to enjoy :)

The Best For The Last? :P (Yashita)

1^st all sorry for being so late and for keeping you all waiting:P I have been blogging for a year now. My blog started as a result of pure ennui. But now it has become more than that…a place to meet interesting people and a wonderful platform where friends can come together and have some fun…which is precisely what this blog will be for me…a place to hang out with friends:) But not everyone here knows me:) so lets correct that, shall we? Okay, to start things I blog by the name of Yashita:) and I work in an IT company and so far am loving my work:)...which is also the reason for being so late:( I love books…any genre! So am pretty excited about reading book reviews here and hopefully will tell you all about my favourite books too. I love arguing and argue for fun…but it’s not devoid of any logic:P and looks like am in the right place:) Other than that love cooking and occasionally I dabble with colors too. Among the things I hate, insincere people and hypocrites would rate pretty high:)

You must be wondering what’s with the pic of a girl sitting next to a window? Lets just say people find me “mysterious” (even friends who know me...and Sudeep,Ishita and Keshi can confirm that:))…so that’ll be my excuse for not putting up my pic:)...please accept:( But hopefully that will be remedied soon in the future:) since am learning photoshop! I have a habit of talking and this is starting to reflect in this post…so before I start babbling about the terrible road traffic here in Pune, I’ll cut this post short:) and hope we all have some good time here on this blog…and just between us friends, I am terrible with post titles:)
