Life is just settlin in here. Kinda missin my old office. Its not d same atmospehere around here. U cant shout and scream and act crazy out here. So I gotta keep my self on a leash most of d time. I work out of d Bomannahalli office. It’s a lil btr off dan d one on MG road. Dat place is more lik a dead town in texas. U can even hear d wind howl der. Its so silent. No one talks around der. Dis off is more of colour and a bit more of noise. So am just in d process of instigatin people to mak some noise here. Der is 1 other anglo Indian who works here(let me specify dat she is a lady for d :-) b4 any eyebrows raise) I hav a cab pick and drop in dis office, I need to come til forum in d morning and dey drop me off by St. Johns woods in d evening, so it isn’t much of a walk in any case.
V had our 24/7 annual day last Sunday. Inspite of being an ex employee I invited my self over and scandalized d audience der. J gav some people something to dream abt at nite J ( dat was just me being me and boy did I enjoy it) Was gr8 fun to b bak amongst known crowd again.
My sis wud b leavin for abu dhabi in about 2 weeks or so, once she gets here visa. Dats gonna b a tough good bye for us.
Went on a major shoppin spree dis weekend. Dilip had lost 1 of my jackets so he had decided to replace it wit another 1 so, my sis got me dis real neat leather jacket dat I cant seem to get out of even if its boilin temp outside. It kinda makes u luk very sophisticated.
Well dats al from me for now. Hope to catch up sometime soon. Luv to al of ul

Annie's Tirade
As penned down by Annieeeee...
Brinnnelllleeeeeeeeeee, It is so nice to hear that thing have become ok…. Hope you continue to add ur bit of color to ING Vyasya…. Soon they may actually change their brand color ffrom white and orange to some vibrant ones being inspired by you…. Also please don’t take another call from that Jay idiot…. He can find some friends of his own weird type…
Liittyyyyyyyyyyy… Good to hear from you after a long break… we had almost got used to chatting with you in the afternoons…. Btw…. Veloni’s ….. Litty has started making fish curry and all already within 2 months which I have not managed to do in the last 2 years…. We have reach such an extent that poor Georgy is actually starved of fish till either my mom or his mom comes home and makes an everlasting stock of it for him…… Don’t worry about work now… sure u will get a good job there…. And then u will be waiting for the time u will get a break from work…
Suni…. You will definitely do a god job managing your nephew…. After all this is good practice for you… practice makes perfect…. ;) so I hope this practice is a precursor of full time roles of a similar kind….
Rebi… how dare u snatch away my boss from me…. I had just begun to learn so much here… now my life has taken one full circle and it has reached the beginning again…. Where I started off...
Remi … We have nothing much to share except our endless sorrows which we do over our internal office communication channels…. We don’t need to pour it over veloni mails tooo…. We could write a saga most probably on our tryst with i-flex… when I say saga… it encompasses varying emotions like, drama, tragedy, comedy, sorrow….. It’s pretty entertaining for outsiders…..
Shikks….. Hope you have a blast for your birthday….. and pl fill us in on all the details…. How is the wedding preps going on…. How is work with u….
Lastly with me… things are going on as usual… nothing much… have been traveling like crazy… Shuttling between cochin and Hyd…. Work was going on welll, till Rebi decided it should be otherwise…
Was at home Hyd last weekend… so relaxed a bit there… am off to cochin on the 16th of August… and back on Sunday…. Life’s like that…. My niece is one brat… my sis and bro are developing muscles trying to put her to sleep cause she only sleeps when they rock her to sleep…. My sis now wants to compete in weight lifting… and she feels she will be capable of that very sooon….. J…. This actually put the fear of God into me….
Btw….. I finished reading the Harry potter last book…. And the ending is verrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy ………. I wont tell u… since I know remi has not read the book but I am tempted nonetheless….

Suni's Soothing Serenade
As penned down by Suni...
I was seriuosly dozing off at work,was trying to keep myself awake with cups of tea,but you did the right thing by mailing all of us at the right time! Litts don't get tensed on your job hunt,Iam sure you will get a good break at the right time(sounds familiar I always keep telling you this)!
This is the time you should enjoy with Sunil,spend as much time together with him,I know it becomes a little irritating to stay at home all day,but take this as a right opportunity to explore the other side in you,may be you could try cooking(not the regular dishes,experiment on Sunil,he won't say much since you guys are newly married),do different things at home etc!! I may sound boring,but these are things I have slowly started to crave to do but just don't get the time to do it these days.
I know you must be missing home and parents,but think of it that Dubai is only 3.5 hrs from India, anytime your parents can visit you guys or guys can make a visit and it is a mini kerala there!
The news from my side is that Shareen(my sis in law) is expecting any time,Mummy will be coming down on Aug 15th,if Shareen delivers before her due date,I will have to take care of my nephew (Josh) which I love to do.... At work,it has reached the saturation point, some people in my unit have quit, so there is more work for the people left behind!
Litts, Barclays Dubai is hiring big time now, do send your CV in there, my boss is also moving to Dubai, I will send him your resume.
Want to make a trip to Dubai sometime end of Oct for just a week,Elisha will turn one year,in case I get leave and GOD willing we get tickets and everything goes fine,then there is a chance of me meeting you there(let us see,will let you know)

She's BACK with a BANG!
As penned down by Litty...
Happy friendship day.....
News from my side is that I am slowly getting used to married life (!) and trying to understand what it means to be a homemaker. Most of you know that I was least interested in taking up household chores and responsibilities.....
Well, those lovely days are a thing from the past. There were days when I used to return from work to find hot water in the bathroom for me to refresh myself, a table fully laden with good food ('good food' used to be dal and rice, but it was full of Vitamin L). Now Rebi, Vitamin L stands for Vitamin Love (so that u dont have to send a mail asking "what on earth is Vitamin L"....) My faithful wife Reme did take good care of me for the past five years. Now I am a wife myself and I am not sure if I am taking that much effort as Reme did for me.
Then there was chirpy Ann, who did everything possible to get me a backdoor entry into i-flex so that we could continue our gossip sessions live, free of cost. Not to mention our girls night outs whenever Georgy was out of town!!! Hope the baby making process is going on fine since your second anniversary is fast approaching (!!!)
Rebi and her occasional Coffee Day outings. This is how I had access to what was happening with rest of the Xime junta like Abey, Ayesha etc. Not to forget your shocking red sunglass that you used to wear on such occasions.
Brinelle Popen, we earnestly hope that you pop-in more for those lovely Bangalore coffee day gossip sessions. Congratulations on your new job…..Senior HR executive, too much!!!!
Tharakan…….We have missed you “deep down in our hearts” so much after you moved to ‘home sweet home chennai’.We are yet to see snaps from your African Safari. So where are you next headed? Antartica? I am sure Colombus and Vasco De Gama combined together have not visited so many places as you have.
Chikkuuu…..Advance bday wishes (I know I am a bit too early. We need a detailed account of your last spinster bday. How are your wedding preparations going on?
Thanks for the wonderful bridal bash in Bangalore, I enjoyed every bit of, right from being blindfolded and taken in an auto rickshaw, to loosing our way to Ann’s place, the music, the candles, the JASMINE, the Litchi cake facial, lovely Chinese dinner, Ann’s Urban yoga clothes, Rebi’s fundoo sandals from Dubai, Brini’s long long silver chain on her jeans and last but not the least the lovely bag, diamond pendant and the cooking instructions that you guys gifted me.
But most of all I miss taking Reme for shopping and ended up spending four times more than her, coming back and settling accounts with Reme’s trivial Arithmetic skills.
That is a long enough mail to keep you all from snoozing in office…..I promise to mail you all more frequently. I am still very homesick and nostalgic about my spinster life. Please pray for me that I get a decent job and I am able to manage everything here. Also pray that my kids (whenever they happen) don’t turn up like Reme…Please I need your prayers.
