It was almost midnight and we 5 sitting bored watching TV and drinking(me excluded) thinking of something great to happen on Friday night in the most happening city of the world.
It was raining in the chilling winters.Glasses got empty and we peeped out of the window."Little drops outside,lets go to a bar".I said "Hey,it's raining heavily,won't go outside".Then someone said "Itna to hum Delhi mein bheeg lete honge,chup chap chalo".I told them "main kya karoongi jake itni sardi mein as I don't drink" and I got the response back-"Come on,you might not get a chance again to roam on the streets at midnight.A great memory to cherish".Somehow I was convinced and to my wonder,the 4 of them gave me their jackets,caps etc so that I don't get wet and we all dressed in night suits moved out to search for a bar.After walking for 15 minutes and almost wet,couldn't find anything.Then we turned back and started moving again in the opposite direction.We saw a place having disc lights and hip-hop music.Someone said "Hey that's a disc,wo bhi itna paas.We can get back dressed properly and come here within 15 min.I don't want to go like this and get humiliated".Others tried to refuse but of no use.We went up,dressed in formals,came back and went inside the disc.To our wonder there was no dance floor and few people here and there.All of us thought ,where are we?
Well to get surprised,It was a private party!!.Sabse bada bakra bana aaj tak ka.
Then we moved ahead and saw a 300 year old bar and went inside.Was looking like an old den and pretty bar tenders smiling and serving drinks.
All of us ordered something and enjoyed few rounds.I kept on watching crowd outside and it was 2 am.Bar tenders were trying to push people out but who cares.We cared and moved out.There were lovely lights,happening streets and rain falling on our heads.And again a thought popped up-"disc chalte hain".But a big question-Where is the disc?One had an idea,take a bus and keep on peeping after 4 stops,we'll find one.What a great idea!!!
3 followed this hit idea and 2 came back.And finally,the great 3 also returned as they couldn't find the disc of their dreams after travelling for 30 min.
A great and memorable chilling Friday night of my life!!!!!
I guess you are getting curious to know this happening city!!!Well keep guessing :P

Who is an MBA?
MBA..whenever those three golden letters pop up..i feel someone very intelligent,sophisticated and logical wearing a suit and a tie standing in the front and giving speeches and sharing his analysis.
Well now I think,MBAs are 'Members of Bakar Association' (pardon me guys!!)
Whatever they speak,as per my knowledge is either already known to all or is some alienated topic,repetitive in all forms and last but not the least very much boring.I remember when we used to have vision,goals etc sessions at our organizations and I used to sleep on the last table :)
They try to make the conversation interactive by asking silly questions about which the audience has absolutely no idea .They also know that we are only watching them speaking with our eyes wide open and brains already shut down.(not to mention watching with brains open if the speaker is a good eye candy!)
Speaking is the foremost and mandatory skill required to be a part of this 'Association'.To be precise,Fundebaazi is required and the skill of Columbus..guess what?Round and round and round and round and back to the beginnning!!! :D :D
The more I confuse people,the more I am successful as nobody knows what my analysis and policies are :)
But 'Bakar' should be perfect in all aspects,mind it.It should carry an attraction.How?
Either you should be Rajdhani Express that you speak and nobody can come to know what was it or you should be Passenger that the crowd lose interest and sleep.
Still everybody runs the race with the CAT to catch the RAT and become a member of this prestigious group and get the crown.
After the membership expires,we are back to Roti,Kapda aur Makaan!!

I am a Corporate(Co-operate)!!!
Corporate means working in an A.C office,going in cabs,wearing formals and running business.Well I belong to a very small section of this ocean but still 'Happily' a part of this.When I see some person,an MBA grad or someone having a vocational bachelor's degree running some shop or a parlour,a thought comes to me-"Isse ache to hum hain,kam se kam aish ki zingadi to jee rahe hain".Then again another thought hits my mind-"Am I truly a corporate or am I co-operating".Co-operate ka matlab hai ki I am making them earn money!!
If I compare what I earn and what these guys earn,there is a huge difference.They earn and we make them earn.We are only wearing ties and formals, going to offices and living a regulated and disciplined life pretending to run the industry :D
I own houses,move in big cars and spend weekends in malls or some multiplex expecting and showing that I have a good standard of living but in lieu of pay huge loans for home,cars etc.Savings by EOD almost nil hoti hain.
And bas udte udte khabar aati hai..wo aadmi crorepati ho gaya and my dreams get a kick from there.
I have dreams to own a bunglow,an Audi but will this corporate life ever help me to get that,I still wonder!
