Early Flights!

He is up and ready to catch his flight...
I want to get up and be with him as much as I can...
It will be weeks before I see him...
Yet sleep overpowers everything.. 

Good byes and sweet nothings...

Nothing gets registered...

That's why they book on flights that leave at wee hours of the morning...

Everyone is half-sleep and probably in the middle of some dream..

There are neither teary good-byes nor longing faces...

If one accompanies to the airport, 

They just want to get back home as soon as they can...

Under the warmth of the covers... get lost in the land of dreams...

If not to the airport, 

Then there is a rush to shut the door and get back to sleep...

Sleepy eyes and groggy mind...
No one feels anything...
Everything feels numb...
Sleep is an escape from reality...


By the time I get up, I feel he's left for office as every other day..
And will be back soon...


But as night falls, realization dawns...
There is a long night ahead..
And many more long nights before I see this man...
... who's become my world now!

Bun Certified Bava Programmer!

Only jokers from Mastimakerz can come up with a tag line like this!

We came across an old video of us taken during our trip to Nagarjuna Sagar. The video had Karthik looking at the camera and talking like a newsreader. He was teasing Spoo like this:

"She joined IMIS thinking it is IIMS. She is planning to do MBA from SBI. She knows a lot of programming languages like Bava 1.4, B, B++, B sharp, SQL, para SQL, MS home, FROG, RASCAL, Doors98. She has recently joined Macro Swift. She is Bun Certified Bava Professional!"

We could not help replaying the video several times and each time we laughed so hard that our tummies ached! Wish we could reverse the time and re-live those days again!

Even though the running commentary was Karthik's, this post has been dedicated to Spoo  because she is the one who always gives so many many chances for everyone to come up with new ways of pulling her leg!!! :-)

Birthdays with Mastimakerz!

The birthday celebrations with Mastimakerz were full of new methods... 

I can not forget the time when everyone snapped their fingers instead of clapping while I blew away the candles and they mouthed the happy birthday song silently while I cut the cake. What creativity!

There was also a time when someone stabbed the cake instead of cutting it. So weird!

Of course, there was a lot of running around for smearing cake on each others' faces... Nice facepack! And sometimes even on the dress or hair...

Gifts were never so easy to be got! The birthday baby had to snatch the gifts while the rest of us would keep throwing it around out of his/her reach. It was so much fun!
