Whispering Diary - Part 2

Hey. I'm back. Told you, I will be back. So do we start? Sorry, do I start from where I left off? Confused? I knew you would forget it. Thanks to the digital age, I got it all recorded right HERE!!! Do read through it and come back. Oh not back. Meet me at the next line.

Okays now, let me begin with the first entry of 2017 on a diary of 2016. It is important to emphasize on 2016. Don't give that sympathizing look. I can see behind that unruly face of yours. You are just thinking - Cut the crap you stupid diary. Last time also you made us wait and gave nothing. Now Start.

Have patience my child. "Patience is the key to success." Well, don't start thinking again. He did not write about patience. Sorry again, to disappoint you. And here it goes...

Wait. Do I just quote his words or narrate it with my understanding? (Thinking... thinking... think tank...) I will narrate it. Wheres the fun in quoting a middle class guy.

So, after Happy New Year, 2017 he wrote Confidence. Yes the third line in the diary was just a single word - Confidence. And then he went on with his blabbering in the most miserable writing that I could ever know of.

Okay. Let me clarify. Most of the pages with me are recycled, so I know to differentiate a good writing from a bad one. Paper memory - that's what it is known as.

Again I drifted from the topic, my bad. I will try to stay on track. So he wrote, and wrote till he reached half the page. This is the year I make a resolution again, after making a resolution (2 years back) of not having a resolution. - he started.

Any guesses on what he resolved to do? Yes, you are thinking right. (Evil/cunning smile) This year our great Royson has decided to be more confident. And the first-step towards that is maintaining a diary. Can you believe it? Come on, kids aged 10 write a diary. My friends told me. Yes, we do communicate among ourselves but this conversation with you is the first of its kind.

How does writing a diary get confidence? I have no clue. Do you?

Na, chuck it, don't answer. The sadly looking eyes and the lack of smile denotes you were unhappy with the revelation. When our subject is so boring, how exciting did you think this would be. (Even when, I did try my level best to make it interesting.) 

How do I know Royson is boring? For that, you got to wait till next time...

See ya Pals...

The One With The Coastal Ride

Image
It was 7:30 in the morning of 4th March, 2017 at Chandni Chowk, Pune. 22 people on 18 rides set out for a journey of different sorts. I was also there, like a ghost among the 22 different souls. Thirty minutes into the start and I was thinking, 'Did I make a mistake joining this journey? Do I make some lame excuse and go back home?' This trip was definitely out of my comfort zone. I had been on road trips earlier (with friends) but never on an overnight trip with 22 strangers. It was difficult, for an introvert like me. I need time to mingle up and a day was surely not going to help create that bond. Plus, this was going to be my longest bike expedition till date. But then I thought otherwise, 'It was the trip that I needed not that I wanted.' And then I went with the flow. It was only a week before when I saw this post from Mysterious Rangers that I decided I have to go for this. So I started asking my friends, if they would like to join? And one by on

Kasarsai Dam and Beyond

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Famous proverb, agreed by many, followed by few. Well, I'm one of those, who follows this from the heart. And I have my own version of it. It goes something like this No road trip, makes roy ma sad boy. Pretty lame, huh. If you have anything better, do mention it in the comments. So this time, I set out on a trip to Kasarsai Dam with my friend Zeyn . One does not always ride solo, cause even Han Solo is not solo. He always has Chewbacca for company. (For those who don't know Han Solo and Chewbacca, go watch Star Wars). And yes, me and Zeyn are like Han Solo and Chewie. Okay. Now coming back to the trip. I had been to Kasarsai a few times earlier as well. Its a pretty nice place - with a serene environment, the sound of lapping water, chirping of birds, wind blowing on your face and finally the pleasant view of the setting sun. Kasarsai in its glory.

Team Infy @ Alibaug and more...

This one is about the trip after I left Infosys. There are one too many trips that I have been in past 2-12 months that I have not written about, including trip to Manali. So, please bear with me. A good old saintly person by the name of Baba Roysonath once said - Better late than never . FaisalKhan02 My last day in Infy and Faisal Khan02 (my cubicle mate) asked me if I would be interested in a trip to Nagaon/Alibaug. I wasn't sure about it but I don't know why I agreed for it. Sometimes you don't think before you decide and this one was a similar decision. Next day at 5am I get a call that the bus is reaching in 15 minutes, come at the gate of the society. And I was still in bed, sleeping through the alarm, woken up by the call. Somehow I mustered strength to get out of bed, get ready, pack the bag and meet with others boarding from the same place. We were up before the Sun The bus which was supposed to reach in 15 minutes, did take quarter to an hour
