Weekly Food Diary

Tweet I have been looking to do something new with my blog so as to make it more interesting. Then on one day a thought came to me to share what i eat on daily Basis, by this visitors will get to know what i eat. My Mother is always worried of me that i didn't eat much, but i like to eat different things and always do experiments by tasting various stuff i get around me. There is one thing with me which i do not understand that i could not eat anything before 10 or 11 in the morning, if i try to eat also my Stomach also refrain me from doing so, that means most of the time i don't have Breakfast.

What I did for two days last Week

Tweet Meerut is considered as a Sports City by many as different types of Sport goods are made here. In Fact many Indian and Foreign Cricketers play with Bats that are Made in Meerut . You must have seen Stickers on Bats with SS,SG and BDM written on them , all these Bats are Made in Meerut. Also there are various Sports stadium here and one of them is very close to our Office. So one fine day after Office me and two internship trainees Prashanth and Sheeraz went there to have a look at it.

                                                                     Sheeraz and Me Outside Stadium

The Stadium name is Kailash Prakash Sports Stadium. I have once more gone there and they say that even once Gavaskar played here a Cricket match, my Uncle has seen Mohd. Kaif playing here for U.P. in the Ranji Trophy match at this Stadium. As you enter the Stadium premises the first thing that greets you is many young Guys and Girls who come here to learn various sports, but the Stadium looks old and is not very well maintained.I could see  Athletes preparing here some for Long Jump some for Running and some  trying to Kick at a Cushioned pad thats been worne by a Guy who happens to be their trainer also. On one end Some Kids were playing Hockey on Grass field while Modern playing standard for Hockey require Astro Turf, but you could see enthusiasm in everyone no matter what kind of facility they are provided with.

                                                                             Inner Look Of Stadium

There is one more Stadium here in Meerut which i found well maintained as now a days Ranji Trophy matches are played there, i had seen few matches also there and some players which i had got chance to see are Suresh Raina,Mohd. Kaif,Praveen Kumar, Piyush Chawla, Sudeep Tyagi and some more which are not much relevant now, last year Rahul Dravid also came here who played for Karnataka. 

                                                                  Boxers Practicing

We just stayed there for few minutes and came out of the ground , in the outer complex of Stadium there is one Olympic Size Swimming Pool where when i once went saw Fatty Children of some Rich family enjoying their time being in Water , swimming was not in their minds. In one dark big hall there is a Boxing Ring where many Boxers were practicing, that hall was so dark and so humid even for us to stand their for some time was difficult God nows how they practice there and if still we won an Olympic Medal in Boxing that is highly Commendable. Outside you have one Basketball Court and an Indoor Badminton Stadium.

 

                                     This Scoreboard amazed me see the Spelling of Target


After that we came out of the Stadium and we were feeling hungry and we got to see a Thela on which Chow Mien were being prepared. As it was an Egg Chow Mien Thela i was reluctant to eat there as i don't eat Eggs but the Chef(can i call him ?) there said he has separate utensil for making Egg less Chow Mien so i was ready to eat. For me to eat something is delite but the thing that fascinates me more is to see it being prepared in front of me. I was served first and Prashanth and sheeraz later as they opted for Egg Chow Mien.Take my words it was one of the Best Chow Mien i have eaten, my mouth is full of water at present. When we finished eating one person came to take Half Plate Chow Mien with five Eggs in it, thats lots of Eggs as Compared to Prashanths and Sheerazs Half Plate which was made with only One Egg.

 

                           See The Face of Thela Wala glow with Confidence

After eating road side Chow Mien we decided to have Pizza at Dominos the next day. The reason for opting to go there was as no body amongst has eaten Pizza at these Branded Venues. So after Office we went there and with some difficulty in searching Dominos store we were finally able to locate it. As we entered we could see no body was present there which was a surprise, then for selection of the Pizza we were handed over a template which was showing various Pizzas, we opted for Fresh Country Veg Pizza(It looked the Best) which was written to be of 95 INR exclusive of VAT hence with VAT it costed 107 INR the attender told us to wait for 15 minutes for our order, we were shocked with this as they have this slogan 30 minutes or free and we were being told to wait for 15 minutes at the Dominos store only, can't understand this stuff from them. As we were waiting A guy and two girls also came but they were busy talking with each other and i thought they had no plan to eat here just came here for some peace, the Guy was clicking the Picture of one of the Girl( collecting some memoir ). At last our Pizza came and our first reaction was " Its very Small ! " nevermind
we must taste it now and second reaction after tasting it  was " Its not what we had thought it would be ! " all in all it was not a good experience for us and i planned from now onwards i will not waste my time and Money for Dominos Pizza as its service and the product could not lived to our expectation.

                                     Empty Seats At Dominos

                                                             Its me Waiting For Pizza

                   At Last Our Country Fresh Pizza

P.S. - All the Pics were clicked by Prashanth by the NOKIA Phone that he bought from his Cousin.

Two Lively Guys !!

Tweet They came and now today they had gone back and i know i will miss them a lot, in case you are wondering to whom i am talking about , well i am talking about the two Internship Trainees that came to my Office for their Summer Internship.

  Sheeraz And Prashanth

It was about two months back when i was climbing stairs of my Office and met my Boss in between, he stopped and said to me Abhishek we have two trainees and you have to look after their training . As i entered the conference room where they were present i saw two young guys who still looks like they have passed their Schools sitting. My Boss introduced me to them and left the room. Prashanth and Sheeraz were from Hyderabad and have just completed their third year in Engineering from a renowned Institute . We started our Conversations in English about what we will be doing and where we will be going, but soon i came to know they both can speak Hindi also although Prashanth whose Hindi i found to be very funny as he is not accustomed to it.

Gradually we became good friends and whenever I used to go on site for work they used to follow me. As the terrain they were seeing was completely different for them they had so many questions to ask. Abhishek Ji ye Kayku hota h ??? would ask Sheeraz in his typical Hyderabadi accent, but to understand Prashanth was little bit difficult when he speaks Hindi so we have to take help of our English linguistic skills. I remember on first day we went to Pilakhua near Ghaziabad and have eaten Bhutta with them and when returning they shared my Lunch which was Arbi ki Sabji and from that i learned Arbi is called Chamagadda in Telugu.

While Prashanth with his Nice Touch Screen Phone of NOKIA was curious to took pictures of every new thing he get to see while Sheeraz wanted to ask about places to eat here in Meerut. They both were huge fans of Non Veg food and will tell me daily what they had eaten, Being a Vegetarian myself i still would tell them where to get best Non Veg from.

From Monday to Friday they would be with me and on weekends they used to roam around. In fact they visited Delhi around 3 times along with NOIDA, Agra ,Fathepur Sikri and Sheeraz even went to Ajmer in their short stint they had here. They both had so good attitude that in Office they were known to most of the people in fact they introduced me to some of them. 

                                                                      Sheeraz And Me in Canteen
Sheeraz is a Horse lover, whenever he sees one you could see glare in his eyes, i must say he is an Animal lover, knows so much about them and will always tell me unusual stuff about them. A true Muslim he was, on Fridays he used to go to Mosque in afternoon, even Once on Shab E Barat(i may be spelling it wrong) he spent whole night in Masjid praying. Whenever i was on low he used to crack a Joke to make me happy.

                                                     Prashanth and Me Sipping Coffee
Prashanth first sentence would he Hello Ji ! whenever we used to meet. He tried his best with Hindi and in the end i was able to catch what he wants to say. Most of the time he would be busy clicking pictures from the phone that he had bought from his Cousin he even bought a mini Laptop from one of his Friend for internship(what a great Friend he would be ). We used to have Coffee in the morning in the Office i will miss that now.


As i am the Junior most in my department it was nice to have someone with you around your, now as they both had gone back i will be again lonely. Have learned so much from them, their lively attitude,ever smiling faces of them, there was something in them that whoever meets them becomes fans of them instantly. Yesterday was the last day of them in Office and unfortunately i would have to go at a site at a distant place i would be returning late in night, i felt very sad for not being there with them on their last day. They pleaded me to meet them in Night but i came back late and could not meet them.


I know they both would be reading this Post, there so much i want to write about them but for now i just want to say that it was wonderful time with both of you here, i will miss both of you ! I don't know if i had fulfilled all the queries that you had but i tried my Best.  Just be in touch where ever you are. Surely we will be meeting again.




Here are some of the Pictures with them.

Best Friends !

Tweet

From past few days i was thinking what to post on my blog and nothing was coming to me and now here on Sunday afternoon i was sitting in my room and in came an idea why not write about my best days which are gone and i can't bring them back no matter what i can do. Sometimes when i am down and out(like now) i try to visualize the better days that are gone by and thats what i am trying to do with this post.

After preparing full one year for Engineering Entrance Exams, i gave all the exams that i had been enrolled to and was already knowing the result as i had not performed well in them. Full one year was wasted and the Money that was invested too, first came the IIT result i didn't even checked it(but i got the confirmation few days after i received a letter showing my poor performance in it), when i was giving IIT exam some twenty minutes were left , examiner came up to me she was seeing my OMR sheet the holes in Maths section were not filled yet, she said you haven't filled them yet please fill them fast, now who should tell her that i am unable to solve them thats why not filled those holes, but in desperation all blank holes were filled by me on same option and yes i got 12 marks in my IIT exam and you should get around 100 to crack IIT.


After AIEEE result my father first time in my life condemned me saying " You are a below average student " I could not argue on that as i had ruined all of their dreams that they had nurtured for me. Now in state Entrance exam i also fared bad getting 17,838 rank in Uttar Pradesh. Anyhow i was able to get a Mediocre college in my town.


Now my College story started, First day of the college i was quite nervous went by city bus and coincidentally met a Guy in my Bus who also joined my college with same branch as of mine. Went to college there were lot of new comers, on first day we were shown college premises and day was over.


I must tell you how i first saw my Best Friend, I was going to my college one day and City Bus stopped at one stop there i saw a guy in my college dress he was drinking water from the Hand Pump and hurriedly came on to latch the Bus, he was a thin,tall guy with glasses on. Then i saw him in my class also. As we were following the same route we got acquainted to each other. His name was Manish Rajora. I think you make friends who have common interests like you. We both have interests in Politics,current affairs,general knowledge,taste and so we became very good friends during the course of the time. There are lots of instances amongst us and here i will narrate some of them.


As most of our class mates used to come college by their personal vehicles we both came by buses,autos and by our foot. He used to come from Modinagar and i from Modipuram then we used to meet at a common point from there we took City Buses which are like hell you have to struggle for getting even a foot hold and we did all this for 4 years, after City bus we used to walk for a kilometer or so and the same process again in evening for return journey, but we enjoyed every moment of it. I guess we were the only two in our college who has done so hardship.


One day we went for a movie actually our whole class bunked for the movie. Everybody has taken their tickets in group. As we didn't have much money we took the cheapest ticket. As we were on the look out for our seats we got the front row seats. Now for whole movie we were trying to conceal us from our friends who were enjoying elevated show at their seats and we were struggling with our neck as scenes in movie were moving from extreme right to left and so does our neck. Any how we finished the movie and it was planned that we will never watch again movie from front row but history repeated itself once again at a different theater.


Who says that ragging happens in first year ? We were the guys who gave it every year. In first year they ragged us thats ok, but in second year its our turn to pay back, one fine evening we were returning to our home some guys called us and they started ragging us one by one, they abused us and made our fun and we have been ragged again we were so dumb. But it doesn't stop there only we were again ragged in third year.


Yes we were best friends but we have difference of opinions also. Like once when we were returning from our college and we were having discussion on whether Capital punishment must be given or not. I being little liberal is always against it but he who happens to be a Jat also was in favour of it. On that day we had heated discussion and no body was cowing down. We didn't talked to each other on that day.But i respect his decision and also mine and its perfectly all right to have ones own faith on any particular thing. I know he is reading it, you must remember Manish when we went to BSNL Office for training purpose on Delhi road  at that time also we had argued. But our fighting always remained upto words only and on the next day it used to be over.


As he mentioned in the comment section in earlier post when we went to Delhi for ISRO paper we enjoyed a lot what a time it was for us !  i guess we don't went there for giving paper we went to roam in Delhi exam was secondary thing.Once we went to trade fare also and roamed all day long, i miss those moments now, Yes it were our best days.


Two years had gone by after passing out our college, one year we were both unemployed and in April 2009 we got selected for same Company and now are working in same Company, but time has lot changed, i miss all those moments that we shared with each other. Now here i don't have many friends and i am not enjoying my job also. But then this is life and you have to move on with it. 


Today its Friendship day i thought why not to write about my best friend ever. You may argue that i don't call you much but you are and will be my Best friend !
I dedicate this post to you !
