Sitting idle in this schedule so tight
Finding time for you this I write
Our relation hasn’t reached that plight
On your special day this much I can’t do slight
Thinking of the years gone by
Tears of joy it bring to the eye
Everything we’ve shared whether your or my
I wish we never have to say “Goodbye”
In good & bad times we’ve stood by each other’s side
Together from so many years we’ve laughed as well as cried
The special bond connecting us gives me immense pride
This journey hasn’t been any less than a roller coaster ride.
It’s always been the voiceless words
Never having to make an effort to be heard
More than once it has occurred
Our support for each other was the only medicine that Cured
We have similarities in everything it seems
So much so that we even share all our dreams
Thoughts of achieving them brings to us a gleam
I am sure we’ll make it one day by any means

Adios 2011
2011:
Some lines dedicated to this wonderful year:
A year of surprises, a year of predictions coming true in vain.
A year of tears, of joy as well as pain.
A year of achievements, and also of strains.
A year of experiences, bitter, sweet and plain.
A year of many firsts, including pay cheques, failures and people fake.
A year full of learnings, rejections and heart ache.
A year of doing more of work and less of break.
But also a year of cheerful & teary memories betake.
A year of losing some, but more of new and better ones being gained.
A year where I left behind the city of dreams, making a decision sane.
A year of discovering life, in more ways than just the blood flowing in the vein.
And finally a year where I learnt to talk sense and use more of my wit and brain.
Thanks to all who this year for me special made
Also, sorry to the people whom I’ve hurt by deeds or words said
And now, before the memories begin to fade
Let’s all, to this wonderful year, a farewell bade
Okay, so after that, whatever it was, I’ll now get down to thanking all those who made this year such a fantastic journey.
First comes, obviously, my parents, my reason for being in this world. Thanks for all the undying support and bearing with me from some many years. Seriously, how do you do it, anyway?
I love you immensely, just fail to show it.
My extended family, uncles, aunts, sisters, brothers, all of you. I love you.
Here I have to mention two very special people who have been with me through thick and think. Neel Naik & Riddhi Naik. I love you both. By some means, whenever we meet, we end up laughing our wits out. Whatever the situation. We always make it hilarious and a one to remember.
A special mention to the fact that you made my birthday very special this year. It was one of the best I’ve had so far. And finally, sorry, you know for what. Thanks for everything.
Let’s begin the long list of “FRIENDS” now: D
Parini Surti.
Well, my love for you is renowned baby. Words will fall short. This year, and my journey so far in ahmedabad is just amazing only coz of you. And yeah, most importantly, I fell more in love with you after discovering you as a roomie. You’re an amazing live in partner. *hugs*
Dhara Adhvaryu.
This year you’re second on the list. Sorry for that. :P
Wish you could be with us (Me & Pari). But you’re still the strongest pillar in my life. Sorry, couldn’t be more of a help to you this year around. Unconditional love for you, always. Muahzzz
Abhinav Singh Gupta.
Just 3 words for you Gupta. I hate you, always have and always will. :P
Jokes apart. Thanks for being the guy I can always count on, and the one person with whom I can truly be myself without any barriers. This year, will be memorable coz of the wonderful matching events that occurred in our lives. And the conversation thereafter. (don’t smirk now,*****)
Jhalak Khandelwal.
Bitch. I know you’ll say “Proud to be one”. I also know you hate me, very much, and I’ll as always, just say “I still love you, baby” and for eternity, will. The one person who, even if I, by mistake, fail to remain in touch with , keeps reminding me, I am still there. Love you for that, you 7 K’s. And also for another reason. If not for you, some of us would never have had the courage to admit certain things. :D
Muahzz for that. And you, better watch out. Something’s cookin’ up for you. Shh!!!
Roopali Jain.
Ahh. And I smile broadly. It’s true we’re beginning to think differently as we’re growing up, but somehow we still have that connection which I’ve always loved and truly cherished. Been maintaining a beautiful long distance relationship with this girl from 4 years. Beat that, you lovey dovey couples out there. Love you, baby. And I have, am and will always be proud of you, you determination and all your achievements. *bows*
Sohil Gandhi.
For being a gem of a person. The guy, who even after being hurt by me intentionally or otherwise n number of times still stands by my side, stronger than a pillar. Renders undying support. And somehow, always the right word of advice. Thanks, for just being who you are and always sticking by.
Jitisha Bhatt.
She is one of those persons, who just by their silence provide the best support and advice. I’ll always be there for you too, baby. Come what may! Whatever decision you take, m gonna support it. Thanks for amity, thanks for the laughs and above all thanks for just being there.
Shraddha Mehta.
Lol. Surprise surprise!! This girl, come what may, bears with me even after all the broken promises, and me never keeping my word; I wonder where she gets all that patience. And hate myself for never making it upto her. She just proves to me the saying “Old friends are old friends, and will always be there.” A helpful soul, who receives my call or replies to a text even at the weirdest hour, love you for that. And thanks. :)
Kruti,Geeta,Shivani,Saloni,Misha,Jyoti,Shivali,Kritika.
Thanks for making ahmedabad special for me. I feel blessed and truly lucky to have got such wonderful people as roommates. Saturday night movies, horror movie discussions, sitting near the TV together and enjoying the dinner and stupid soaps, all of it, are very special memories for me. Love you all. Muahzzz…
Divya,Lochan,Priyanka,Neha,Purvi,Ankita di,Mala di,Smriti,Megha,Sneha di, Shweta di
Thanks for a wonderful farewell and the marine drives, juhu beaches, multiplexes, everything about Mumbai that we’ve done together in 2011. All the birthdays and cakes and trips for shopping or whatever, even just sitting at home and gossiping or watching TV. Loved it. All of it was unforgettable. :)
Chandni,Barkha,Karuna,Priti Mehta,Priti Bajaj,Nidhi Vora
Thanks for remembering my birthday, and a wonderful cake. The get-together after a long time, was one to be remembered. I am glad, we're all still in touch, and somehow maintain the school bonding. Love you all, a lot. :)
Himanshu Bagga.
School friend. Hardly talked during school. But now, a great friend. Ever since he moved to Mumbai, we’ve constantly been in touch, had fantastic outings, and been to ice cream parlours: D
Made mutual friends, who give regular updates (lol). Thanks for a great farewell and being a good advisor and supporter.
Adhish Panchal (Gugu).
The one person who has literally, helped me survive, who has listened to every kind of crap coming from my side, and has laughed even at the worst kinda jokes I’ve made. The one person about whom I can proudly say “Adhish Panchal, yeah, he’s a great friend.” :)
He must be a mystery to many. But for me, he is just an open book. Love you and thank you. And I cannot even begin to tell you, how proud I am of you and all your work. *bows and claps*
Divesh (Juju) & Smeet .
The one’s I refer to as “True Facebook Friends”. In some weird way, distance has intensified our love I think. I know I can count on you two anytime. Love ya. :)
Dhruv Shah, Sunny Taylor & Rakesh Khemchandani (Ronit)
For being my brothers from different mothers. ;)
Love you three, truly.
Sarjil Shah
The biggest reason for my laughter and smiles this year. Just plain and simple, thanks for coming into my life at the right time. You are the one and only person I trust completely in the office and can rely upon. 10 Jewel is bearable only coz of your presence.
Also, in case I've forgotten to mention someone's name here. Sorry in advance. And thanks for touching my life in one way or the other.The people on my list, thanks to you too. I may not be in regular touch with you all, but all of you mean a lot to me, that's why we are on each other's friend list. And may be, in the past we've spent some great times together. I know for sure, that I've have spent good times with most of you. Love you all. :)
And last but never the least, you, yes YOU, reading this out there. Thanks for taking out the time and reading this. Actually not taking out time, rather I should say thanks for wasting precious time over this piece of shit. And yeah, Happy New Year. :D
So now, as we begin this year filled with hope, faith, curiosity and everything else, it reminds me of the beginning notes of a song which is one my all time favorites “Aankhon mein sapne liye, ghar se hum chal toh diye jaane ye raahe ab le jaayengi kaha”
Bring it on!
Let the New Year, begin!
Yours Always & Truly,
Manali G.Desai
