Doesnt it look surprising the sequel comes the right next day;)I couldnt hold on to the memories that kept building on....
What do I remember...this time its the trend of celebrating friendhsip day...the number of bands thathang around our hands...the awesome smelling samosas that they used to sell outside our school campus...all I see now are super markets and big shops that have replaced... sad:(...I miss those hot samosas that they sell...that small wooden table on which they place the big stove and there is the boiling oil and with what perfection they used to make that samosas fresh fresh..their hand was far better than any machine...but life has to keep changing and people have to invent new things..but those samosas still make my stomach hungry any moment....
we keep growing dont we....and remember the days when we saw telephones at our home...GOSH!!the ringing sound used to make me feel like a receptionist...there was some fascination for answering the phone before anyone else at home picked it up....now it makes me laugh out loud...
And how can some body forget the marina beache, if chennai was there hometown...I still cherish those days when the big gang of all our cousins would go to beach stay there till late night eat those pink candies?!(panchu mittai),those mango slices with red chilli powder,the wonderful ice creams or the corn served hot hot...OMG how would I forget the mulagai bhajji!!!!
wondering if my daughter would ever get a chance to enjoy these little things in life?!?!?
with that note...will hope to continue writing....a soon to come part three...!!!!
Happy Memories!!:)

Golden Memories:)
Two things before I write this blog:
Number 1: I am the most irregular blogger. But what is making me write today is a randomly read blog written by some gal. A summary of the thoughts conveyeed in her blog...I just love writing my heart out..be it any emotion.
I was someone like this before. Blogging could give me the happpiness I sought for.
Number 2: Hey Neeraja this post is inspired by your comment on my status few days back. Thank you for making me write. This post is also inspired by a line that I read as a comment somewhere in youtube.
After this long reasons and inspirations behind this blog..here I am writing about it...about what???its the 1990s-early 2000s.Wow doesnt it return back golden memories if that was when you had spent your childhood .
There are so many things that strike my brains. The awesome heat waves of Summer at Chennai(most people who are non chennaites would be complaining about this)but I just loved it, how we would just want to get a five rupee ice creams to quench our thirst.How we would wait for that sundays just to watch Rangoli,evening movie...Oh the Doordarshan days...Now we have so many channels but I hardly watch the TV...but back then it was just the doordarshan simple and straight but used to love it. I and my brother used to wait to watch a imtihaan,chitrahaar,super hit muqabala,all the best,dekh bhai dekh,rangoli....Gosh!!!TV was such a amazing thing and Doordarshan was a real good entertainment. What I completely loved was the fact that we didnt get addicted to the tv but did look forward watching for short intervals. And that waiting to watch just certain programs was so beautiful.Remembering those lovely days!!!!
PS:Bhaiya I remember Pholoonka taroon ka sabhka kehna hai:) doesnt rangoli play it every now and then.
Next those rainy days when half of chennai will be floating in water. Yet I would fight with my mom that I had school, just to walk in the waters and get drenched in the rain and come back home after hearing that there was no school. And the best thing was my mom would make me eat the lunch box as a punishment:(
Truly those were days when we used to enjoy friendship like crazy. I remember the Musthafa songs that we sang in the bus journeys or just hanging out with friends complaining about our parents ha..ha ha...isnt that we did all day but never got bored or just hated a teacher because she didnt like you talking in the class.
And how much I would go crazy collecting those barbie dolls and just imagine building a palatial house when I grow up and have loads of barbies in it....Life was truly simple yet beautiful, Life was Ambitious yet not jealous..at every pace of life we see and love so much that I used to wonder isnt it truly lovable.
There is so much more...hopefully will write a Part two onn it:)....
