Kya Khoya kya paaya

Crudely translated the subject would mean 'What was lost, what I gained?'

So, lets for a moment travel back in 2005 and see for myself how did it fare for me...

Ended up spending the first day of 2005 in Nagapattnam thanks to Prashant. Came back I guess after spending a couple of days there.

Left Mindteck in March-end and joined up Mars on 1st day of the FY 2005-06. Now leaving Mars and probably for good going to Delhi in a couple of days.

Got to spend a few months in Chicago. Also went over to Louisiana for a fortnight. Yupu thats almost it in my boring life. Boy it was mast working alongwith FEMA, US Military et al doww at FEMA Command Centre in Baton Rouge.

Was in a personal mess around Oct but thanks to the Big Man Upstairs, he helped me come out of it. Looking back I now realise how close was I to making a big sh** out of my life but again thanks bhagwan.

Met Harmeet, Gagan, Sumeer Aunty, Amandeep, his wife (sorry again dont rememebr her name) and a couple of other blokes in Chicago. Mentioned about them in previous posts too.

Got to visit lots of Gurudwaras - Hazoor Saheb, Nanak Jheera, Gurudwaras in Hyderabad, Gurudwaras in Chicago, Wisonsin and got to have darshan of Harmandar Saheb once again. May Waheguru always have his blessings on me.

Got a bit richer over past one year but not as much as I would have liked. :)

Lots of people I knew got married in 2005. Lots of others I know are taking the plunge in 2006. Probably I might also walk down that path in 2006.

Spent new years eve with Batra and family, Rahul and Anuj by playing flash for 3-4 hours at night. Batra owes me 60 paise from flash. :) Lets hope he repays me unlike his bro, Kunal. :)

Thats it. Wishing everyone I know or may come to know of a very happy and exciting 2006.
