"What should we get as a present?"
"Yes, we need to figure that out ... and what are wearing for the celebration?"
"I think lets all decide on a color code ... how about black?"
"Naah ... I don’t have a good black dress ... can we go for red?"
"aaarrggghhh ... these girls ... now listen ... what do we gift him?"
"How about a big bouquet and a nice shirt??? I mean expensive one ... not real expensive but a bit ... you guys understand what I mean ... right??"
"That’s so common ... how about a nice, sexy watch?"
"I have an idea ... why not give him a sorry card?"
"Sorry Card ???"
"What ???"
"Are you nuts ????"
"Well, we all trouble him a lot ... don’t we? Yes or No ???"
"Ummm ... Yes .... "
"may be ... but not a lot .."
"Not me ... I never do that"
"Yes ... I think most of us do ..."
"So, why not take this as an opportunity to tell him we are sorry for all that trouble you have had to bear for us and because of us ... that will make him feel proud of us and we will also be benefited by seeking forgiveness for our misdoings till now ... wat say?"
"Yea ... sounds cool ... then we can start nagging him afresh from tomorrow ... wow, just like writing on clean slate... :)"
lols ...
"Cooooll ... and we will also give him an award.... because he is the best in the world ... we will thank him for caring about us so much.... I will get a nice award frame ..."
"Yep ... these two ideas sound perfect ... lets get these !!!"
Now, here is another proof that I am one favorite nephew of Uncle Murphy [nope I don’t have any NRI uncle ... this ones of the Murphy’s Law fame :)] ... at times its months altogether and I cant think of anything more than zilch to write about [let alone write ... sometimes I cant even figure out any topic to rant about]... and today there were 3 topics in my mind tussling, scuffling & vying to get the much coveted print space on Serenity [well everyone loves their own child .. don't they ?? :-p] ... so in the end just came up with the above fictional [partly inspired from a real life incident] chat between a disobedient & nasty bunch of 10th graders ... deliberating on the eve of Sep 5 - Teacher’s Day ...
This conversation kind of encompasses the three thoughts I wanted to pen ... viz.
1> Michhami Dukkadam:
In Jainism, we have an annual custom, where in after the last day of our sacred religious week [known as Paryushan]; we seek forgiveness from everyone [deities and human beings alike] for any intentional/unintentional hurt inflicted by our actions/words.... & “Michhami Dukkadam” is the phrase that’s used to say sorry and seek forgiveness ... genuinely ...
So, friends, if I have ever hurt you inadvertently by my posts or comments ... I sincerely apologize for it ... “Michhami Dukkadam” ....
2> Teachers Day:
Nowadays Sep 5 goes unnoticed in most of our lives ... now that we are all into corporate world and busy with zillion things ... But rewind back to our skool/college days and all of us would have been eagerly looking forward to this day – Teachers Day !!! going to school sans uniform [of course wearing new dashing clothes], wishing our teachers, giving them flowers/gifts ... celebrating in school/tuitions ... etc etc ...
So, let’s reminisce our academic life ... and wish our teachers a very happy Teachers Day ... and thank them ... as they surely have played a decisive role in shaping up our success of today....
3> Award:
Last but not the least ... my second blog QQ was bestowed by Brilliant Weblog award from Keshi ... It’s my first blogging award ... Yipeeeeeee !!!!! Keshi, thanks a ton mate... I am really obliged and will cherish this award eternally...

"Now that the gift is taken care of ... can we decide the color code ???"
"Red ... please .... "
"Red will be too loud ... blue ??"
"aaarrggghhh ... these girls .... ;)"
