True Incident, which I witnessed on June 25 2008's night in Bangalore......
Last night me and 3 more frnds went for Farewell dinner since one is leaving soon….we went to our usual place in MG Road, had dinner and full fun. Later on we decided to walk there only and we started walking at MG Road only (this time I was not careless like earlier, I had minimum required money in my wallet without any debit/ Credit Card, I was not talking over phone and I went with my flat mate, so that I won’t come back home alone in late night)….. we were gossiping and hanging around and making the most of it, since we knew that soon there will be only three (when one person will leave Bangalore)…
We’re walking on the main road when we saw one Maroon Colour Car coming from opposite side with very high speed (probably around 100 or more)….. the driver was driving it rashly that he didn’t concentrate on the road that one Auto Rickshaw was going ahead of him and by the time he could realise, it was late…. He tried to apply breaks but all in vein…. The car hit the Auto big time and Auto Rickshaw got a jump of 3 seconds in air. It landed back to road and turned down….it blocked the way to car, so car stopped for a second…and the next second, the driver took a side turn and ran away without even showing the courtsey if someone might injured in the Auto….we reached there to check it out…. By God’s Grace, all 3 people, the driver and a (very cute) couple looked safe and sound…..
It was so sick that one drive that rashly either by his/her personal wish or under the presure of alchohal or whatever….one can harm him/herself plus other people too…. So a Genuine Request nor to mix Drink and Drive and never drive rashly…… if you cant give the rebirth, who is died…. Ypou don’t have right to put some1’s life is in danger…..

BEWARE :Please Don't Walk alone in Late Night on the Roads....
True incident happened with me on June 19 2008's Night in Bangalore….
Last night I went for dine out with friend on MG Road, Bangalore. After dinner we 2 started gossiping and I forgot to see my watch. By the time I realize that I might get late, it was 12’o clock midnight. We said bye to each other. He took auto to his place (HAL Airport Road) and I took to mine Forum Mall.
I got down at 12:30 or so @ Forum and started walking down the lane which connects Forum to BTM Layout….. I knew that its late night, but still I felt like walking and since I have walked on the same road before too, so I was pretty much sure about the safety . My home is just 1km. far from there. 200meters down the lane, and I was in residential area. I felt bit awkward moving alone, so I called to my friend who was actually awake till that time. another 300meter passed and I was enjoying my walk while talking over phone….
Suddenly one Auto Rickshaw came near to me and declined its speed and asked me if I wanted to go somewhere. I denied and again started chatting over phone. The driver again asked me if I wanted to hire… I was about to say NO, when some1, who was already sitting in the Auto snatched my mobile from my hand. I was blank for the moment and tried to move in auto… the passenger didn’t allow me to get it… I was holding the pipe which divides the space between driver’s and passenger’s sit and running towards getting my phone with full on shouting, while auto driver actually increased the speed. I was almost dragged and struggling with that guy to get my phone back. My hands were ton phone to get it from that guy and I was shouting full on when I was actually getting some kicks from the passenger, my specs had already gone somewhere by his one kick on my face…… perhaps those fellow thought that they might got captured because of my shout so finally the passenger throw the mobile outside and I released my hand from the pipe of Auto Rickshaw after getting dragged approx 150meters…I couldn’t notice the no. of auto since I was not able to see anything without my specs plus I was actually BLANK. It was hard for me to believe those 30-40seconds fight…fortunately there was a group coming who helped me to find my specs and the battery of my phone….
I was Lucky, quite Lucky actually…..that the passenger didn’t have any knife or something, otherwise I would have gone for a toss plus my specs were safe and I got my mobile back…..I Learned a Lesson to be extremely careful on road and try to avoid any late night walk (alone at least)……
It happened with me at the main road which connects to Forum, so it can happen anywhere…. Just a Genuine Advise to all of you that don’t challenge your luck and do the same fault I did….. it might be very risky roaming around alone in night…anywhere…

Another Air Trip....But with a difference...
(Somewhat based on true incident, but still it’s a story,,,,)
______________________________________________
Right here, right now… June 12 2008…..The experience is awesome of a flight on a cloudy day….. after a while you find urself in a stage where clouds are everywhere…. And you are in between … I was feeling like opening the gate of plane and jump outside in clouds to start playing, anyways who wants to be in office after this early morning…I stood up and suddenly developed mercy for the passengers who were travelling along with me…. What if I open the door and some1 who hasn’t tighten the seat belt will also come outside with me without his preferences plus I myself didn’t want to join some1 else in my privacy while playing with clouds….so postponed the plan for the next air trip (though I hate air trips)….
“Mr. Nitesh, would you like to have something??” some1 disturbed my thoughts. I looked towards the direction of voice and what a girl she was…obviously a air hostess, in her uniform….still her charisma was different from others… I was about to say “Oh I would like to have you” but my so called customs and traditions stopped me to misbehave with a lady, that to when she is on her duty….”No Thanks” I smiled her back on her (usual trained) smile. She turned to the girl next to me. ”what about you madam” she was wearing stylish .t-shirt and mini skirt, which was complete awkward on her (very) traditional face…..I’m sorry that I can’t tell you what she replied since who the hell was interested in her…..I opened my laptop and started playin…
10minutes and my mind’s tube light (finally) switched on, better late than never. I pressed the alarm of air hostess. My wish came true and same girl appeared for me. “Hi, can I get some water??” “Sure, Filter or Mineral….Filter is free and Mineral for 20bucks” “Hmmm… filter only, I’ m not feeling more thirsty” 2 minutes and she came with the glass of water. ”anything else you want??” again I was about to say “YOU”…. But hold myself and said….”Yes, have a query, when you were serving snacks, you called me ‘Mr. Nitesh’… how come you know my name (before saying that I checked if I m wearing my office id card ).” She smiled (this time, not the usual trained smile)….”we have a manifest for the all passengers, so its not abig deal for us to get the name” I was impressed; don’t know by her intelligence or by my appearance, which took her to check my name. “Ohh Cool… but I don’t your name so far….”’don’t start you flirt’, ‘I told to myself but whats wrong not to stop your search for new frnz’ I convinced myself….
“My Name??” she asked….. “Yes Priya, your name only,,,,,” I replied her back and now it was her turn to get shocked….”How come you know my name??” I was happy that she got surprised…..” I also have the manifest for all the air hostesses of flights I traveled….. Just kidding…. You have name batch in your shirt pocket….” She smiled and I grabbed the opportunity to impress her. “So you use to travel on the same flight?” “She asked…. May be she didn’t know what to say…”yeah, I do…. This flight has the best suitable timings for me….ahm…can I get a tissue” didn’t want to put her for any unwanted conversation from her side, if she would not be interested. So I thought to give a chance to her to escape from me (if she wanted to...). She came back with a tissue and feedback form in her and asked to fill it. I checked but didn’t get any pen. Fortunately she had one. She handed over the pen and left and I started filling the form. There was one point “How do you rate the friendliness of crew staff??” I knew quite well, what I need to fill. I marked on “Love” with 3 more stars from my side. I discovered that it requires my Contact no. and E-mail id to complete the form and I happily filled that column (so no more need to give her my business card to convey my Mobile no. to her).
Priya came after 15minutes. I am not certain if it’s the capabilities of air hostess training institute or she was so genuine that I was full impressed by her smile. I returned her back the form. “So you use to do your job for the same sector??” I had to continue the conversation (for that I changed my seat from 9A to 9C, since it was empty and didn’t want to have any interruption from my stupid neighbor. “Yeah….let us see….probably I only will welcome you for your next flight”” I’d love that……btw…. Wanted to know one thing….” “Please ask Mr. Nitesh”…. I didn’t like the prefix “Mr.” with my name from her sweet lips coated with red lipstick with a gloss on it. “You can call me ‘Nik’…. I was just wondering if you check every1’s name and start calling them or something special in my case…..” she smiled and smiled and smiled….15seconds and no answer….”What” I asked with the hope to get good reply. “Your case was special Mr. Nitesh….sorry Nik” finally at least some1 discovered that I m special… I was happy… So what exactly brought you to check my name??” “My Brother….” She smiled…. And o was surprised…. “How come your brother?? He is also in same flight??” She smiled…why the hell air hostesses smiles all the time , better this time she cud have directly answered and cut the suspense, which she did….one her smile session got over… “Naah, you look quite similar to My Bro” Hmm… I m special, since I look like her bro….I should smile or what?? Finally I managed to say “But still ‘Rakhi’ festival is 2months away and we both laughed. She excused me than since she had to attend some idiot passenger and I closed my eyes as she left…
That was the morning flight, so as she left, I slept off… I got up after 30minutes when I realized that I’m about to reach to my destination. I stood and went towards loo… I was about to open the door of loo when a hostess announced that we are about to reach and asked to tighten seat belts…. Priya was there…. She asked me to fresh n up as earliest so that I can go back to my seat faster…. I entered in loo and closed the door… 2minutes and I was washing my hands when some1 opened the door….. It was Priya, who saw me and locked back the door…. ‘Strange, how come I forgot to lock the door’ I thought…. I came outside and Priya was there only. “Hey NIk Sorry yaar…. I was just checking if lavatories are unoccupied…” “That’s ok, but I remembered that I locked the door, didn’t I?” I asked…. “You did, but we, crew member can open it from outside also…that’s why I said sorry to you….” “That’s fine Priya, it was your job. I am just thankful to God that you didn’t open the door sometime in between…” she blushed.… “Btw, Priya… I’m a new born writer and you gave me a good idea to write something….which I will post it on
blogspot.com. If you would like to read, I will pass on the internet path to you…”I started doing marketing for myself “Sure Nik.”.
We landed safely and started moving outside the plane… when my no. came. I gave her my business card with the blog address written on it by her pen only. “OK Bye, see you soon” I said and left with her smile in return.
Hmm… Priya, a professional air hostess and a nice girl (so far)…. I thought if I felt bad when she said that I look like her Bro and answer came ‘NO’….. I didn’t have any feelings for her apart from genuine frndship, so it doesn’t matter for me….. But will she call me sometime?? Will she read my blogs?? Will she meet me again?? I don’t know…. Actually no1 know….. Sometimes you simply leave things to fate…… and anyways…., Life is too big and world is too small…. Even if she won’t call me back, you never know, if I find her in my next flight too…..
