Yesterday me and Tulllu went to see the hockey match and there was this guy standing in front of us wearing a jacket. On the first look it would look like "Adidas-The Brand with Three Stripes" but actually this is a new brand started in the dark dungeons of Madras- "the Brand with Four Stripes and is called "ddibds". Me and Tulllu looked at each other and "Gave Up".
Hobbit came in the morning with this fudge and chocolate and cream thing. Don't know what it is called. But it tasted awesome. Just awesome. Just too much. Thanks Hobbit!!! :-)
Kini Gifted me this book. Its got only answers. So you think of a question and open the book. You get an answer. me and Hobbit asked a question to the book:"Is Kini ever going to marry someone??" The answer was "Ask your father!!!". The book is hopless and very silly and very stupid, but still it is fun.
The Kelkars came. Thanks Indrajeet and Archana. :-)
Surprise Surprise Surprise. Chintu from Delhi sent me this cake. It looked awesome and tasted great. I don't know how he got my address. How he got my phone number. Don't know don't care, because when friends do something nice for you, you don't question them. You just say "Thanks". So Dear Chintu, Thanks man Thanks a ton. Sorry was in the stadium when you called. :-) When you called India scored the winning goal. All because of your call we won. ;-)
Cake cutting
Mamiji and Me and cake.
Paro and Rhan Butt. Very funny thing happened here. She goes to the player sitting to the left of Rehan Butt and asks him "Rehan one photo" He points towards the next player, who is "the real" Rehan Butt. Now this was the reserve Golie for Pakistan. He didnt play the match but he had to kep himself warm all the time so used to joy near us. And whenever he was jogging he was looked at Paro with those "where is my darling?" eyes. I guess he is in love with Paro. Paro even blew a kiss at him. Don't know if he can ever play hockey again.
India was 2-0 down and then after 5 minutes Tushan Khandekar scored. Then Sandeep scored two goals in 2 minutes. Simply great. the match was greatest of all the great presents I got today. I can't believe after all that I have gone through in past few months, I am having fun again. :-) Thanks friends and everyone.
Everyone in the stadium went crazy after the third goal.
After the final whistel everyone went PAGAL. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. My throat hurts. Really bad. It doesn't matter because India WON!!!
Sandeep Singh Man of the match
Pakistan thank everyone for the support.
Score sheet. We dont see this everyday.
And this photo is specially my dear Shobana. The guy sitting on the left is Adam Sinclair. and the guy on right is Arjun Hallapa. Happy?? You have the photo of Adam Sinclair. :-)
Tullu and GaganAjit Singh. Captain was good today on the field.
Finally we had dinner. And the tabloid and paparazzi follow Kini everywhere. HE has to hide his face from them. Bloody reporters and cameramen.
Finally we went to drop Tullu in IIT and we saw these deer. :-)
I guess this is the best birthday I ever had. I can't have a better birthday. :-)
Special thanks to Sayesha and Chintu. The cakes were awesome. Thanks Hobbit, Paro, Tullu, Kini, Vikram, ROS, Priya Hotwani, Dog, Nandita, Sumita, Amrinder, Simrat didi, Pavitra, Kishan, Fred, phew. Am I missing anyone?? Ok thanks everyone. But a special thanks to the Indian Hockey team for making my day an awesome one. It was great. Simply great.
But guys one question "Where are the bloody presents??" ;-)
V....
The tricolor and the tickets
Germany and Australia Match. Germany 1- Ozzys 5.
Even the Chinese were here to see the tournament. How many times has an Indian contingent gone to just see others play?? Seriously the Chinese are crazy. They do anything and everything full enthusiasm and enegry. Olympics in 2008 and they are all geared up for the real test. Way to go China.
India and Spain Line up before the start of the match. Indi goes down 1-0 in some 15 minutes and we get a penalty corner in 20th minute.
Kanwalpreet scores. Technically this is not a goal because one of the India players was in the D-Box even before the ball was pushed in the D-Box. But the goal was scored and thats the ultimate thing.
Indians go down 2-1 again in second half. We put a very good fight in the end. But all invain.
The team thank for the support.
Sad Indian bench.
next match was between Pakistan and Hollnd. (Half past eight) Rehan Butt comes on the field and girls start shouting. Oldies in the crowd were like, "Can this kid play at all or is he some show off?? " Girls didn't care as long as Rehan Touched the ball. As soon as he did there was a cheer from the girls section of the crowd.
Pakistan National Anthem. Jeeve Jeeve Pakistan.
The Spaniards came and sat with us. Paro with two Spanish players.
Rehan Butt puts his last effort to impress the girls and bring some glory to pakistan. Pakistan lost to Holland 4-1. Pakistan played like group of school kids.
Indian team sitting next to us. Sad but not lost. Played well today. Can play much better. Need to improve if we need to win tomorrow against Pakistan. The effort in the finishing needs to be improved. Play for the whistle. Thats all. Come on India Dikha Doo. :-)
Cheers to Bhavdeep. Its his birthday. Old photo though.

Standing with your flowers. Ok I look silly, but this made me feel happy. :-)
Sometimes in life you get so involved in something that you forget there are so many things to look forward to other than that stupid thing.
Oh few more things happened yesterday. Got promoted blah blah blah. Now Manager for Power Transmission group in the company blah blah blah. Participated in a management writeup and won a prize of 9000 rupees from an insurance company blah blah blah. But the surprise from Sayesha was awesome. Simply great. Fantabulous. Stupendous. Thanks Sayesha... :-)
PS: My birthday is on 11th December. Sorry never mentioned that. Little confusion on the comments page. :-)
