I conclude 2011 with my blog Alvida 2011. In that blog I
mentioned that 2012 is going to be a big one in fact a make one or break one
and it didn’t disappointed me. It was a big year in every aspect.
Year 2012 started on
a bang when I got my soul mate in the form of a sweet cute and Traditional girl
Poonam. I tie the knot on 16th Jan. Poonam is the best thing that
happened to me. She came in my life and changed my way of looking at life. In
the past, I always had the notion that something is missing in my life and
after meeting Poonam I realized that it was the simplicity and care that she
brought. She makes me complete. God has covered all his old faults (that’s my
version) by giving me Poonam. I became more mature and responsible with this
relation.
February came with Interview tensions of SAIL, which was my
last attempt towards that elite club of govt job. It was my last attempts to
prove few points more to myself then to anybody. I was tired with the burden of
16-17 (may be more) unsuccessful interviews on my back so I was under immense
pressure.
In March Poonam came to Mumbai and we spent some quality
time there. For 20 days I watch whole mumbai through her eyes. Though I was
living in Mumbai for more than 1 year but with Poonam whole Mumbai was looking like
new to me. The same old crowded metro train was looking adventurous, BEST buses
were suddenly looking strangely sweet and some already visited sites looking
new to me.
This is very strange that just with the company of a person,
things looks entirely new.
April month was most important and memorable month for me. I
put some of my best years in to study to get a decent Govt Job and it seems that whole my prayers ,
whole my efforts once came together to get me selected in to SAIL. Though I was
planning to leave NSN for few months but I never realised that this change came
in this way. I got selected in SAIL and joined in Burnpur. I already came once
to Burnpur as part of my last job and I never imagined that I will come here
again.
I spent, month of May in the mental switchover of NSN to
SAIL environment and from Private to Govt. environment.
In June, I stuck with some documents issues in SAIL and
everything again seems blurred to me but after some rigorous efforts I cleared
everything. It was a testing time for me.
Later on Poonam came to burnpur to live with me and after 9
years of tiffin food I started getting decent food and care. We did have some hiccups in our relation but
slowly-slowly things started coming in line for us. We planned our honeymoon in October in
Gangtok and that was an awesome tour.
Poonam started M.tech. From Asansol Engg College so she got
busy with her work and I too was busy with my job. We were thinking that Life
is not a rosy picture for us but it is at least satisfactory one for us. But
December shakes everything.
For a big part of my life I never had trust on god or on
supernatural things. But last 1-2 years, I had few experiences which put my
philosophies in serious doubts. In December my nephew was so serious that we
have to admit him into ICU for 4-5 days. We were fighting for his life which
was hanging in balance between Medical Science and Super natural problems.
Thanks to God that he survived but this experience left us believing that there
are things which are just uncontrollable. Another blow was diagnosis report of
Poonam’s not-so-severe but regular stomach pain turning out to be Appendicitis.
Surgeon suggests us that it needs an operation. In the middle of all this
Poonam was giving exam of her 1st semesters. I must say she is a
brave girl.
In the start of a 2012, I had decent financial health. I was
almost settled in a job and principles and values too were getting firm but by
the end of it, things have changed 180 degree and I came back to where I
started this.
Financially I am again starting saving every single penny, trying
hard to adjust into a total new ambience and some new habits and principles are
taking their space in the mind.
Let’s see what 2013 has in store for me but on this note
lets Alvida 2012.
