Last day of the year, excitement, planning, bookings, little clumsy about the anticipation of places being full and crowded. This year we tried to avoid all these. And planned to stay at home and that turned out to be very good. Stereotype exploded! Dolly and Nikhil and me, 3ed8 had decided to meet on 31st and do nothing. So we went up to Dolly's flat watched TV and had some planning discussion about what to do in next 2 hours. Actually everybody wanted to stay at home and do nothing.Also Nikhil was too damn tired, he has been to some freaking trekking. We were hungry so We went Chandani Chowk to have a dinner but that turned out to be bad idea since dinner places were converted in to the celebration places. It was presidential police checking everywhere specially Chandani Chowk . We came back to Kothrude and had a dinner at Rugved, a good place. It was the place where we entered in 2010 together and left 2009 behind. We did hit 00:00 of 2010 during our dinner.
After midnight we went to FC and JM road. And the shocking thing was traffic signals were on and enough crowd was there to respect them. What I liked about this crowd was, it was so cool, no rush, no horns, everybody was driving slow, smiling faces enjoying every spark and every sound of the cracker. I was feeling like I'm driving in the dream and I'm invisible (no explanation for this feeling, please!!!). All over balloons of all colors and shapes. Everybody on the road looked so happy also they seemed excited. May be the excitement of hope and curiosity 2010 is about to bring. First time I was not scared of traffic police, they were managing things nicely. And I loved the traffic first time in Pune, and felt proud to be part of it. So next year don’t miss it!
Happy New Year!
