haan haan jaa raha hoon

What if you have to move out of the city where you landed up staright from college and started your so called 'career', earned struggling salaries (in corporate paralance, peanuts) and got so many useless credit cards (by virtue of opening a new salary account), travelled in cheapest air-fares, paid thousands per annum to the auto-wallas and the 'dynamic' traffic police-walla, and paid at least a lakh ever year to the 'Bar & Resturant's of your area; Getting kicked out by the land-lord every 6 months, changing organizations at the very feeling that - This manager sucks!, and girls......O ya, I guess I did try my luck at a new girl every week,.....or if the girl was not new, I tried to have a recheck on my luck factor. (And do I need to tell that I have always failed.....guess not!)

I couldn't believe all this is going to end so soon, or at least will take a pause for a while (ok ok for many months to come). God know how you will feel if something similar happens to you, but this is what happened when I disclosed my feelings to the people during my so called 'parting meet', when I told them that I would be soon away from their eyes......

Non-Males : Do I know you? {me : <"Thank God! She doesn't know me"> }

Females : So What.....What do you expect me to do?

Female Friends : Good Luck! Keep trying you luck!

Female (more than) Friends : Dhokhebaaz.......F#$% Get Lost! I Hate you!

Eye Candies : Oh!! ..... Lets go for a movie/lunch/dinner/pub this weekend.

Fresher Colleagues : Sarsij Bhai....ab sutta maarne kaun le jaayegaa

Same Level Colleagues : What! You are changing company or what? Yaar mera bhi resume forward kara dena

Thoda senior Colleagues : Good......lekin plz ab jaldi hin shaadi kar le yaar.....dont torture yourself

Thoda Jyada Senior Colleagues : Going for higher studies!!!!! Do you get so much time to think about such things even after these many years? Meri shaadi to job ke 2nd year mein hin ho gayi thi.

Sabse Chota Manager : Haan , you should leave for the good of the team......waise bhi we should have kicked you long back.

Chota Manager : Oh good.....now at least I dont need to worry about a guy screwing up the whole project.

Bada Manager : Ya, I got to know that ..... so where from here? And why? Whats the use? Go join your father's business. [I tell you - Never ever tell anyone in your office that your father has a business]

Sabse Bada Manager : Sarsij! If you trust me.......you dont need any MBA......you only need a course in discipline......And if I were to do something for you - I would have FORCIBLY sent you to serve Army and that too at the bottom-most of the hierarchy! {God! Am I in India? No I just felt that I am in Korea or Israel}

And to all this I had just thing to say - Haan Haan Jaa Raha hoon......{You will know my value someday! }

And when I told the same to the guys I know......there were some obvious and well known answers.......eg, old class-mates said - saale daaru party de ke jaana, ...my flat-mate was happy to finally realize that he would be the whole & soul owner of the TV remote as well as a complete ownership of the internet bandwidth, ...my closest gang has started to abuse me because I have not been spending my last few days with them.......and quite possibly they could give me parting bumps, keeping in view the tradition to kick the ass at the very thought of something happening only once a year (eg B'day....new job.....engagement....shaadi......any other misc occassion like getting a new GF.....etc etc)

Well, for all those of you who still can't believe that I am going away from Bangalore, and will not see them for quite a long time, here is my final warning - Mai Sach mein jaa raha hoon......and in case I have some money/book/DVD/phone/etc to give you back please contact me at the earliest.....or else be prepared to blame me for no reasons.........however tall your claim might be, I wont be able to help you.

So guys help yourself........meet me, and recover whatever you have left at my disposal, because mai ..... ja raha hoon.......haan, haan sach mein jaa raha hoon!
