Last Weekend

The plans were made suddenly... And before I could realize, Naren, Shakuntala and Roy were here in Kuantan, Pahang... Last weekend I got hardcore sick. I was just hoping that the guys don't cancel their trip to Kuantan, and I kept my fingers crossed...

We went to Teluk Chempedak (Kuantan’s famous beach), Cameron Highland, Xtreme Sports Bar, Tioman Island, Chinni Lake.... We did boating, sleeping, eating, smoking, drinking, screaming, walking, bird watching, evaluating people on roads... Spent a hell of a time on Naren's application... Went for some long drives... Played Truth and Dare (in which their only target was ME) at Teluk Chempedak Beach and then in the car... We (Roy and I) manhandled Naren once... Ate an awesome Egg-Maggi prepared by Shakuntala... The guys made me wear a stud in left ear... Roy played Kite, while the rest of us watched... We made plans for movies and then canceled them... Talked at length about all of us and our lives and future plans and about a start up in next 5-6 years and about Salt Lake house plans and about ruining a Indian marriage with a "Bhootni Ke" styled dance and about plans for coming new year celebrations and about other unmentionable topics... An unforgettable time...

The best thing about Naren and Shakuntala this time: Found them both much more sensible and matured in their relationship... It was great to hear from Naren this time, with conviction, that they are tying the knot in 2011 (probably March)... It was great to see the confidence on his face... Naren has changed... and definitely for good... Shakuntala also, is quite excited about her new job... And she should be; she deserves it...

Nice to see all three of them moving ahead... I had two very good friends Naren and Roy... Now I have three... Love you all guys...
