Long back the Dev Team Members once played a game among ourselves. Each of us picked one dev team member and had written about what living a day in the life of that member would be like. So here are few for you all.

After this we would like you all to now write the same about other members here. But see that one member can be done once only. Yes you can write about many members.

So here are they. Let me start with mine first............

Chocolate on Bhaskar


7.00 : Bhaskar is sleeping. Dream sequence chal raha hai, Aamna and Priyanka both dancing with him in Right here Right now song. Wah wah! Dono kya lag rahe hai! Arre wow now he is doing Lala la run with Aamna.😆 Suddenly He felt a hard hit on his check. Atlast his eyes get wide open. His roommate standing infornt of him …with all the anger on his face, muttering "Bhaskar I am not ur Aamna nor your Priyanka. I just came to wake u up and u started to sing lalal with ur besoora voice holding my hand…how dare u….i am going to change my room right away". Roommate left in an angry manner. Bhaskar sighed….not because he lost a wonderful roommate, who does many job for him …but because that was not Aamna's hand after all.

7.30: Bhaksar getting freshen up, Still he is all blank. He did that dream sequence with Aamna and Priyanka , ismain room mate kyun naraz ho raha hai…Galti insane se hi hote hai.😕 He looks at watch and pauses the thoughts and hurries up.

8.00: Bhaskar is all ready. But it is too early for him to leave. So why not utilize this time and get online. He logs in to IF. OH my God! So many pms and half of them are from GMs. " No need to start the day with the pms of devil GMs"😈 He said to himself. So he started to read the pms from normal members of KTH. To his surprise he finds each of them says the same thing..'Hi Big B Can u tell me when Rajeev and aamna will sign a show together? Waiting for reply'…Bhaskar for a second thought "when I got this personal reporter job for Rajeev Khandelwal-Aamna Shariff," He can't remember that he has accepted any job like that. "Then why the hell everyone asks me. I should be paid for it. For Aamna I can do the publicity free of cost….but next time I shall surely tell this to Rajeev. With this promise he logs off and headed toward institute.

8.30: At the institute Sir of Bhaskar got him,… "Bhaskar have u finished the project I gave u last night?" He suddenly realized he hasn't finished cause he was following an interesting thread at SRGMP section last night. He tried to make an excuse saying he was feeling not good last night so was taking rest. " But I saw u online on IF last night" Sir answered in a 'I caught u red handed, beta!' way. Bhaskar feels shy and confused again….Starts thinking isn't being on IF counted as taking rest?? And went lab to finish the unfinished work.😳

12.00: Finished the work and handed the result to sir. Sir smiled and say "which thread u were following by the way?" Mr. Confused is confused again. Can't make mind if now he can say the truth or not? So left the place blushingly.😳

12.30: Back to hostel. Logs in to IF and all messengers instantly. The day already started badly Dev members can't make it worse so decide to read the pms by them. First chocolate…Oh god this girl is back again with some weird ideas for KTH. He read the half pm by her …it went completely over his head. So he replied Wah! great ideas…go ahead. Next one by Megha_Desai..she is saying that she is going to be away again. Yeh larki kab ate hai kab jate hai….mujhe kuch samajh nahi ata hai. But he replied take care bye bye to her. Third one is by Jem. She is upset because soemone said bad about HR in SRGMP section. So she pmed Bhaskar to cry on his shoulder. Bhaskar first removed the crying emticons retrieved the message of jem and send a pre-written consolation message right away😃.Next message..this message is from Vijay. He wants a message recorded by Rajeev on woman's day. Now this is interesting….If he wants Rajeev one, then he must be asking for Aamna's message too. He immediately pinged Vijay in messengers. "Should I call aamna and record her message too….since it is woman's day!" After 5 mins Vijay replied "arre IF is full of girls and girls want to listen to Rajeev not to Aamna….So whatever Rajeev says for woman's day record karo." With broken heart💔 Bhaskar says okay. But instantly cheer up thinking he will call this afternoon…then there will be huge chances that Aamna will also be there with Rajeev.

13.00: Bhaskar on KTH section. Merrily Browsing here and there. Pulling members leg, Enjoying the party threads, Deleting/Editing unnecessary posts.😃

14.00:Forcefully shifted himself to food. BRB in all chats windows.😊

14.30: Back in action again after filling petrol. Bhaskar now doing his part in mod sec. The chat windows are also open with Gauher, Sree, Priya. Suddenly Raksha pops up. She is literally mad at him for being partial to chocolate when it comes to Rajeev. He tried to cool her down but she went offline being upset. Bhaskar bro feeling confused again. What he has done now.😕

15.00: A PM comes from a SRGMP member….saying u look very cute in your avatar. Bhaskar lost his temper people have started to think that he is girl and the person in her avi(Aamna) is him. He post a long topic on this in SRGMP sec and then felt bit cooled down.

16.00: Off for tea break😊

16.30: ya this is high time to call Rajeev, Full chances Aamna will also be there. He called him up and requested him…Rajeev shocked for a while are u sure I have to give a message on woman's day? Bhaskar repeated Vijay's words in robotic manner "yeah cause IF is full of female members and aap jo bhi kehtey hai unlogon ko woh amrit lagta hai. Rajeev understood the depth of the matter and agrees to give a message. After the recording suddenly Bhaksar asked "where is aamna?" Rajeev- "huh? OH she!…She is out of town." Bhaskar feeling completely sad now.😭

18.00: Message sending is over and now our Bhaskar bro in his Lab officially working and unofficially dozing off. Priya and sree messaging him continuously. He is reading half of them and half of them are remaining unread since he is feeling sleepy.

19.00: He has finished his work in Lab with much pain cause of this dizziness. Now even bigger problem infront of him…since his roommate is upset with him he has to cook all by himself. OH god!😕 Yeh kaam to phir bhi ho jata hai but cooking..tauba karo yaar. He dialed Barnali di's number and innocently describes his problem of cooking. Barnali di understood the matter and invites him over dinner. This is what Bhaksar looking for. He agreed instantly.

20.00: Bhaskar at Barnali di's home. It is still too early for dinner in a Bengali house, So he went to look for Barnalidi's daughter Ria. He found her in her room. Ria was also waiting for him and as soon as he came the game of luddo started. All the snakes coming on Bhaskar's way and all the ladders coming for Ria…Bhaskar tried to do cheating but he got caught by the small girl Ria.No need to say today is a bad day for our Bhaskar bro.

21.00: The food is ready. Everyone is at dinner table. Even Bhaskar's Sir is also with them for dinner. HE is also used to the fact that Bhaskar is lazy to cook and ends up with maska maro to Barnali di and gets invited everyday.😉

22.00: Sir again took Bhaskar to work. *sigh boring work* don't worry IF and chatting will go side by side.😛

23.00: Bhaskar busy in work suddenly Aamna call him up. Asking kya kar rahe ho. Bhaskar- kuch nahi working. Aamna- Acha what u are doing tomorrow can we go for a outing tomorrow? Bhaskar- No I can't, loads of work. Jem and Megha is away on IF. So I have to take care there too. Aaamna: Oh god India forums again *sigh* Bhaskar: Sorry? Aaamna : Eggjactly! Acha listen look outside it s full moon ….so romantic.😳 Bhaskar: Today is not amavarsha so it has to be a moon there. What so romantic about it? See it works in a scientific way, Every month the moon…..Hello hello! Line disconnected.

Around 3 at night: Bhaskar has finished all the work at Lab. Has bid bye bye to all IF friends. Now he is back to Hostel. His roommate still there…Since he need to provide a three weeks notice to change the room.😃 Bhaskar tries to patch but again got confused if the room mate has agreed or not. All tired Bhaskar bro goes to sleep and his dream with Aamna and Priyanka Chopra continues.😳

Ms Bholi Bhali on Priya

Eik Din Priya Di keh Saath!!

8:00am: Priya Di wakes up after her 8 hours of sleep, not a min more or less, and before her eyes are fully open she is online on msn, yahoo and India Forums.

8:05am: Her eyes are fully open, after seeing the numbers of PMs She got from SRGMP & KYPH members. Jitni Pms hoti hain, uss saye double her eyes are widens. So to relax a bit, she goes to the kitchen to get her cup of Tea!!!

Mean while, Saba sends her a Good Morning Message, but after a while she sees the great "Away" status on msn, this is the first one of the day.

8:30am: She is back in action and is all set to fight with the members, Give them warnings, and to spam SRGMP Forum. Her away status has been gone too, and Saba is finally talking to her, and both are exchanging complains and other disappointment about forum members.

9:00am: She suddenly remembers that she has to go to her office. Therefore, goes to get ready in a hurry, and here, Saba sees yet again an Away status.

9:30am: She is in her car, and over speeding, as she has to get to cover 25 km in 30 mins or less. So she is on time! If her cars have wings, it can surly fly at the speed she is on right now.

10:00am: She is at Office!!! And finds out that her colleague is not here, therefore she has to cover for him. After hearing this Priya Di, puts her running shoes on, and is all set to run between the two cabins.

10:15am: she logs in on MSN, Yahoo and India Forums, because she has a few minutes before the running starts. She now finds, Sree Di and Saba online. She is been attacked by both as soon as she logged in.

10:45am: Priya di is gaib from the chat all of a sudden. Sree Di and Saba are shouting their lungs out calling Priya Di. But no response came. But after a minute they see an Away Status beside her name. After seeing the status they both are satisfied, and carry on with their conversations. Because they knew that the running has begun.

Priya di is now running between the cabins.

11:15 am: She finally comes and says sorry for not being there and asked what they were talking about. As Both Sree Di and Saba are in process of telling her what they were talking about, they see the infamous Away Status once again beside her name. On seeing that, they both take the name of God (oh God).

11:30am: Choco logs in and is added to the chat immediately. Priya di is still running between the cabins. She is handling piles and piles of papers of her colleague who is enjoying his vacation. And idhar hummari Di, is running running and running between the cabins.

11:45am: She takes a break from running, and finally talks to Sree Di, Choco, Bhaksar and Saba.

12:15pm: Priya Di's status is Away again!!! You think she was running???? WRONG!!! She is now lunching! Seeing that Choco too runs to eat her lunch, as both of them are taking part in "Who eats the lunch fastest Competition" Seeing this Sree di go to see Shakti in ELAS!!

12:45pm: Everyone returns all of a sudden, there is a tie between Choco and Priya Di again. So they decided to do it again the next day. Sree di is flooding the chat with all the crying emoticons. Priya di asks her what happened. As she was telling the whole story of her Priya Di's status is away again!!! Choco and Saba are left to give shoulder to Sree di. She couldn't see Shakti, coz bijli chali gai hi.

1:00 pm: Priya di returns, and apologizes as she was again running between the cabins. And asks Sree di to tell the reason why she was crying 30 mins ago. As Choco and Saba are not allowed to laugh, so they pretend to faint.

1:15pm: Goes to court.

3:00pm: Returns to office and organize things in her cabin and her colleague's cabin.

3:15pm: Jem is online, Priya Di listens to her complains and protect the Other HR from Jem, in the absence of the other members of the Gang of Bholi Bhalis.

From 3:15pm to 8:00pm Priya di is juggling between office works and lecturing to trouble makers. Many trouble makers back off after reading high level English. As the pms were going 2 feet above their head.

8:30pm: Leaves for home at the same speed.

9:30pm: Back on her laptop. Logs in IF, Yahoo and MSN. And around dozen ppl messaged her all of a sudden. Everyone has their own problem which can only be solved by our lawyer sahibha.

11:30pm: Priya Di's "Neend ka Devta" starts calling her. So she starts to say byee to everyone. Now she is yawning will full mouth open, and her eyes are half closed. So she log off for another 8 hour sleep. Na eik minute kaam na eik minute zidha!!!

Priya on Ms Bholi Bhali

OK. Here goes my entry on Saba.

A day in the life of Saba.

Ok here goes.

For Saba, the day never starts. It is just one big big cycle, where she naps when she wants, so her day is typically of 25 hours 😆😆😆.

Midnight – Gauher, Sree, Priya, Amreen, Tafarruz, Dashing boy (some more names cant remember now) are online and Saba is chatting away with everyone merrily. 😃
12.05 a.m. Looks at her cup of tea, realizes that it is a lil cool. Types BRB in all the chat windows, quickly dashes to the microwave and pops in the cup. It's the first time, so the timer is set for 15 sec. mmm…. Smells the tea , still smells like Tea, so picks it up and back on chat windows.

12.10 a.m. spots a trouble maker in phalana 😃😃 forum. There goes Ms. Saba with her broom to teach the guy a fine lesson. PMs exchanged with the trouble maker 😡😡😡 till she makes him wonder why he even took the trouble for it seemed as if trouble was right on the other end of PMs with him.😃

12.30 – exclaims on all chat boxes, reports that the trouble maker is shot to the ground and resumes chatting.

12.35 a.m. Suddenly realizes that the tea has got cold again . BRB on all chat windows. Moms on a strict vigil at night to ensure no midnight trips to the kitchen, so she tip toes in again. Second time the Tea is put back into the machine😳😳😳. Tea protests faintly😡, you can hear it, but second time round, timer set for 30 seconds.

12.36 a.m. tip toes back to her room, and is welcomed back with huggs 🤗on different chat windows. Looks fondly at her cup of tea thinking that thanks to the Tea, she is hugged more these days. Thinks of drinking the tea, takes a whiff of the aroma, it is a lingering aroma of tea, contented, takes a sip. Opens the site of Pakistani music and starts playing her favourite ghazal of Noor Jehan. Likes it a lot, and sends links on all chat windows.

1.01a.m. Bored, Saba is looking for action. Slowly, Sree has to go for her hourly jaunt to the washroom😉. Gauher's MSN is cuckoo and kicked her out. Priya is set to away and Amreens nose is buried in Chemistry books. She is ignoring the buzzes on chat. Saba opens up a site on lyrics and starts reading. Gets an idea and posts something on PSF forum.

2.00 a.m. OH OH. In posting in the PSF section, Saba forgets all about the poor cup of tea waiting to be drunk. Mmm… touches the cup, it is ice cold. Mmm… this calls for drastic measures. BRB in the open chat windows, and cup is taken to the microwave. Cup and Tea protest. Priya and sree can hear the protest even in the chat window, but to no avail. Tea has to be penalized for getting cold and punishment is the microwave. Back after a minute, it is the third time for the tea and the aroma is now not so strong. She takes three or four strong wiffs and gets a hint of the Tea aroma. Chalo shukar hai, woh ab tak chai hi hai.

2.30 a.m. Posting in the SRGMP section. Saba is tired. Tea is half drunk and cold again. She is angry with the Tea. Kambhakt, keeps getting cold all the time. Mom peeks into her room and sees Saba with the cup of Tea. Gives her a lecture on how to drink tea and Saba is planning on hanging her tea. Had it not got cold, by the time Mom came, she would have drunk the tea, but alas, the cold tea let her down.

2.40 – 5.30 a.m. Saba is on IF, checking all the sections, spamming away to glory. Whoever comes online is her source of entertainment.

5.30 a.m. Mom wakes up and Saba volunteers to make her a cup of tea. Isi bahane, she gets one too😉😉😉.

7.00 a.m. Goes out to do some errands for Mom. Comes back home and decides – OK the sun is now up and can take care of the world. So I can now go sleep for a while😳😳😳.

1.00 p.m. Mom pulls Saba out of bed and into the kitchen to help her with some work.

2.00 p.m. Back on IF. New set of friends online. Saba is busy chatting. Wishes everyone good morning, good afternoon and good evening and someone even good night.😃

7.00 p.m. Goes out for a walk. Members in IF are almost like maniac. They don't understand anything and no amount of explaining makes them see reason. So walk it is. The pavement bears the brunt of the fury caused by members. You can even see the footprint left behind when some member tried to get funny with Ms.Bholi Bhali.😆

9.00 p.m. Yeh lo, wapas ek pm. Some guy thinks that the username Ms.Bholi Bhali is very cute and is trying to flirt with Saba😡😡. She tries to guess who the person could be and keeps sending vague replies.

10.00 p.m. A drama comes on TV and BRB on the chat window.

10.30 p.m. she is back, after seeing the drama. The one on TV not over, she has now to deal with a member who is creating drama on chat. These guys, don't just seem, to understand. Saba wonders if having a boy friend is the end of the world or the ultimate achievement in the world.

11.00 p.m. Sree comes online. Cuckoo is still missing with her absent MSN. Sree and Saba think that gau is probably jumping up and down on her sofa and lament the fate of the poor sofa.

11.15 p.m. Priya joins in.

11.30 p.m. Saba is feeling sleepy. But everyone is still online and she cant sleep. So BRB on chat window and Saba is off to make a cup of tea. Freshly brewed tea, the aroma is all over the kitchen. Saba cannot bring herself to get over the aroma of the Tea and keeps taking whiffs from the cup. The tea begins to cool but the aroma is still strong.

12.00 midnight strikes😆

Minnie on Vijay



Vijay - ALL IN A DAY'S WORK.


4.30 am: Tring...alarm sounds, alarmed, Vijay gets up in a hurry.His sleep stuck eyes refuse to submit to the torture of being forced open after only two hours of sleep...but they have to submit.... his mind is already furiously working away on Project A, B, C, M, F, H, L, Y, O........he needs to work on ALL those right away.

5 am. In front of the computer sipping away tea and working on program B, C, D......in different windows......

5.15 am. The phone screams. Member B raving and ranting about a topic the evil moderator has trashed.

Vijay reasons and cajols and finally decides to talk to the evil mod.

5.30. Phone to the evil mod. Opens MSN and Yahoo. Immediately flooded with maximum windows requesting chat. Types 'away' status to all, barring a few. There he types 😊 .

Then asks her.......Sree types BRB.

Only this much, that's all. 😃' In reply, gets a 😡 from every window. Saba makes a post on the mod forum right away. Protests on over load. Meanwhile three more members are on strike because their fav actor has been abused with the help of another evil mod. So all the global mods asked to intervene. More posts, angry protest, 12 members threaten to leave.....CHAOS AND BEDLAM. IF.in forgotten.

12.40 am. Dolly upset over how the interview was done . Newsletter design not upto the mark. She has planned 4 new contests and angry at Vijay that he is working on none. 😵 Well, can't have Dolly angry. So now the attention turned towards them.

------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------

Priya on Vijay's computer

My Master - A tale by a computer

Ahem Ahem… don't start frowning yet, it's a special computer and hence finds a special place in the Mod Sec.

It is on, round the clock, so will start the day at midnight.

12 midnight. Computer ( I am going to call it P4) peeks a look at the glowing TFT monitor, its pride and joy. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9…. Uffff…. I should have brushed up my counting skills instead of relying upon Excel or calculater. 29 chat windows open. HUH. No house has that many windows, yet my Great Master has that many open😛. It is midnight and no relief in sight yet. Not just that many chat windows, my poor processor is being over loaded with zillion applications running at the same time. I don't even want to peek there to find out how many.

12.30– Keyboard protests from over use. Sends me a quiet message asking me to save it from being pounded to death. Keys : and ) are over used and crying instead of smiling.

1231 – P4 thinks I cant let my key board down. So P4 pulls the wire of the sensor of the cordless keyboard and she goes inactive. Poor thing, she needs a break desperately. Mmm… there goes the Great Master, wondering what happened. Was busy flirting with a friend and instead of a wink 😉, a red faced smiley 😡 comes on and the keyboard goes mad 😆. Looks on the table and finds the truant sensor going into hiding, pounces quickly 😡and brings it back on table. Meantime, the keyboard goes for a quick walk, takes some fresh air, recharges the batteries and stretches the :, the ) and ( and the [ and ].

1240 – Phew, twenty five chat windows closed. Some relief. Prog. Z is not working, so chat is put on away and brows drawn together, lines on forehead of the great master, as problem is tackled.

One a.m. problem solved, program working well, Great Master calls up someone, conveys good news, opens ten chat windows, says program is up and running, smileys on galore and happiness restored to the world of netizens. Who cares for the plight of poor p4, who is slogging away to keep 164321 members happy, plus of course some 2087654 clients happy, plus 1234567 female admirers happy. Kya kya karna padtha hai. Why cant someone see the efforts put in by poor P4.

1.45 a.m. Its time to call US and start recordings. Ufff… there goes the Microphone jack rudely into my socket. Yaar, someone tell my Master not to be so harsh. Dukhta hai….. thoda pyaar se toh handle karo…. But no worries, I am happy, because once the phone call and recording starts, just one program running in my processor, keyboard and mouse can go to sleep and I can stretch my wires a bit. This will take a couple of hours, so peace till then. I quietly disable my ears, so I don't evesdrop on the conversations and take some rest.

3.25 a.m. Call abruptly over, some program not working. Keyboard yanked in anger, mouse roaming all over the TFT, right program found, problem solved in three seconds and back to call again.

4.00 a.m. AAAAAAAaaaaaah some relief. Great Master feels sleepy, so MSN put on away, all browsers closed and lights on the monitor put off .

6.00 a.m. Oh no, back again. Man, cant the guy sleep for a while. I was just getting to my 40th wink. The IF guys are weird. MSN says away, yet they buzz and disturb my sleep.

6.01 a.m. one by one, chat windows opened and lag jaao kaam pe. Look for new brands of different equipments, find out who has what in IF, see for the latest upgrade available. In between, the poor keyboard is also given some hot tea.

8.00 a.m. Slowly logs off different browsers on different equipments. Sees which all URLs 😃😃😃 are up for sale. Quickly takes out calculater and finds out the cost in USD and Rupees for the URL, quickly takes advice from five chat windows on price viability. Mind of Great Master 😃 is already made up, but this is just for reassurance.😉

9.00 a.m. Decides that official work needs more priority, else bread and butter ke waande pad jayenge. So chat closed, Cell phone put off (pst pst.. secret, Great Master is hounded with phone calls, so now planning to get a secret phone for personal use, in addition to the already 5 mobiles, all for personal use again)

Upto 1.30 p.m. Furiously working on X Y Z program. In between gives instruction to poor cousin 😉 to listen to awful songs and decode them and edit them for streaming. Poor girl and her machine (that machine is my sis 😃. I feel sorry for her) protest, but of no avail. DO it. That's the order.

1.30 a.m. Logs into MSN. Life is peaceful. Only 27 friends online. 45 clients online. Clients buzz with queries. Answers them all. Checks on IF. Life is peaceful, except for a few glitches. Sets them right.

2.00 p.m. Great Master Logs out again and out in the field. Phew, I get some relief. I need to find out ways and means to stop my torture. Use the gap to think of ways.

5.00 p.m. mmm… Got a brilliant idea. Cut some onions and put them in the groove of the fan belt and the mother board. Onions make the heat soar and if the temperature rises, I will get some respite.

6.00 p.m. Plan in action. The mouse quietly walked into the kitchen, got some onions, mashed up and comes back into the Masters room. Inserts them into place and waits quietly. Machine is still in hibernate mode and this plan will kick off when it is back on. Kitchen in uproar, as the onions gone missing. Search party launched.

8.00 p.m. Great Master back, after nap, fully refreshed.

8.05 p.m. processor on, strange odour in room. Opens windows (real ones this time), but of no avail.

8.30 p.m. Temperatures soaring. Reaching 135 deg. Celcius. P4 grinning to glory, as sweat pours down Masters face. Thinking it is the heat outside, goes hangs outside the window, which is not so bad. Frowns. Thinks, the love of my life 😳 is getting too hot to handle.

9.00 p.m. Heat is unbearable. Temperature at 200 deg celcius. Now it is unbearable for poor P4 as well. Uffff says P4. cant the Cabinet be just opened so that I get some relief. Forgets about the fugitive onions sitting merrily between the fan belt and the mother board. The heats killing and wires beginning to protest.

9.30 p.m. No Relief yet, as Great Master is busy looking at the applications running and processing happening and wondering what got this about. His beautiful love of life is behaving like a lady scorned, without actually being scorned.

10.00 p.m. It is time for P4 to kick into action and take things into own hands. Master not taking hints, P4 starts rattling inside and the whole cabinet starts to shake. With it, the TFT monitor and the whole shelf begins to shake. Brainwave strikes the master. All chat windows on BRB. Machine off. Cabinet opened. Strong stink hits the face as the cabinet opens and P4 thinks…. Oh no… there goes my trick down the drain. Meri chori pakdi gayi…… The stink is enough to bring whole house down and the family gathers around to understand the mystery of crushed onions in the fan belt. Thinks, this must be the latest technique in computers. It may lead to less energy consumption or higher bandwith or maybe more IF server space. Brilliant child, exclaim all, about the Master and poor P4 thinks, Chalo, I can do this now on a regular basis.

11.55 p.m. Mystery of the onions not solved, but the behaviour of the lady love is not acceptable. Opens ten browsers, sends off emails to Intel, Microsoft and every other hardware computer manufacturer, Gets a quote for a new machine.

Midnight, order for a new machine placed with the Computer guy, who is the brother in law of the uncle of a close friend who had played gilli danda with the Great Master when he was 5 years old. P4 thinks, chalo shukar hai, I am getting a saut😉. Now, I hope I can live in peace or pieces😃.

And there ends one day in the life of ........................ P4 is a scorned machine and is lying in the corner of a dusty room. Meantime, there is one machine with which the P4 had developed some relations😉 Now, it gets a chance to rekindle the relationship😳 in peace, with no worries of wires being yanked or sleep😉 being disturbed.

Ok a day in the life of Manju di well this is pretty tough but i have been assigned a task by Adi bhai so a vague effort

4 am or 5 am donno when she wakes up waise woh soti kab hain joh uthengi.

6 am she comes to IF instantly as she comes online flirting people beware she is the unofficial Pandu hawaldaar any idhar udhar ka bakwaas and she will be after you she frowns at iron da for flirting and posts some sweet messages on the khayal aapke geet hamare thread for some special people.

8 am she gets ready to go to office nashta washta banake though she is a very good cook us din unko iron da pe itna gussa aaya tha ki khaana jala daala khair jaisa bhi bana tha khake she is all set to go to office at 9 bahar jaakar pata chala unki gadi ka tyre dhokha de gaya.jaise taise taxi leke office pahunchi

she reaches office late boss se solid jhad padi lekin phir bhi IF ka nasha aisa hai ki work work sab badmein she instantly logs on to IF and yahoo. I see her online almost everytime yes she is always there but whenever you ping her half the time she is busy with work.Unka yahi ek problem hai woh log off karna bhool jaati hai and i go on shouting manju di kahan ho kuch bolo. After about an hour she come in and says bolo anu main desk par nahin thi i say grrrr didi bolke jaya karo.chalo we start talking galti se main pis gayee aur saari subha ka gussa mere upar utra.i start crying and then she very sweetly calls and says anu yeh yeh hua tere upar gussa nikla.I say didi it is ok and we again start talking kuch der ke baad achanak didi phir gayab main chilla rahi hoon didi kahan ho bolte kyun nahin kahan kho gaye she comes in after some time and says sorry anu boss aa gaya tha kuch kaam tha and i again say grrrrrrr didi bolke kyun nahin jaate.ok after spending almost three hours on chat she says anu main thoda kuch kha leti hoon lunch karna hai and i am very tired i say didi aap sote kyun nahin but let her go for lunch unki widambana dekho she brought no lunch in a hurry and hotel ka khana she cant have as it is some puja that day.Batao yaar bechaari bhookhi rehti hain ek toh kuch nahin khaaya upar se boss ki jhad and that day as she has come late she has to stay till 11 at the office and finish the work as after that it is weekend.Meanwhile her son calls and she gets a relief she is happy to talk to him.She again logs on to IF but again goes grrrr as she sees people cursing each other.She tries to intervene and solve but instead is herself bashed by some newbies.She gets very angry and decides to leave IF then and there but when u open the top 100 active member list you will find her almost always on top 5.We again talk didi tells me what happened i say didi calm down and she says nahin anu mujhe bahut gussa aaya hai.I say didi chodo na why do u get tensed.She then attends some calls and runs away i again keep shouting and when she doesnt come i finally log off.

she finally finishes her work an hour before and hungry like anything she rushes to the house cooks something nice and this time not burnt to eat listens to some music comes back to IF posts on some nice threads talks to old friends on yahoo and goes to sleep donno whether she does sleep or not but she sleeps and dreams about herself and her son on a nice trip. 😃
