The CCD Diaries

After a heart wrenching break up or a series of challenging relationships, we often find ourselves becoming lost in the ugly mire of projecting negative thought patterns on the world around us and onto the being within us. How many of us have witnessed ourselves thinking “love does not really exist”…. “relationships are an illusion”….. “I will never find anyone”….


Although it may be deemed a natural response to move through this cycle of thought patterns, it is in the end (as we may realize), both unhealthy and limiting.


But then we do recover from it,some take time and some like me are just fortunate enough to have plethora of people around me who made me feel so happy about myself that it never affected me.And all this happened because of two lovely people in my life one ruby and one spc and i just want to share it out as it all happened over a cup of coffee.


Case 1 : THE SPC THERAPY
When i came down to kolkata, it was probably the worst phase of my life personally ,as i had been dumped big time and then i met a rocking and rollicking guy called SPC . He had such an easy going air about him that I also started to have a feel good factor about myself. How can i forget 2 a.m trips to CCD at Infinity towers where both of us would discuss out our worst phases of life and he would just make me laugh over it making me think what a dumb-ass I am and then what it became a routine of sorts where in everyday at mid-night we would go to CCD and talk all bullshit and nonsense with a 'I GIVE A DAMN ATTITUDE' and i had my self pride coming back to me. Though such trips have reuced we still make it a point to grace CCD at City Centre with our presence.


Case 2:  THE RUBY EFFECT


As if one friend was not enough i found myself getting involved with one another girl this time. I dont know how because i had got a feeling that all girls are mean and for them all that matters is a fat purse and they just give a balls attitude to a guy's heart. But then this girl was separate, a no-fuss easy to hang out with girl, a girl with whom i became myself again, but then i always had a tingling that i cannot be serious about all this as i cannot afford to get myself hurt again. But then those trips to In&Out CCD have been awesome.I know she is always there even though this relationship does not culminate into that ultimate union. Those CCD trips have given me very nice and smiling moments. She always ensured that she took an extra effort to make sure i am at ease even though i have never reciprocated. 


All i can say is life now is so good that i want it to continue as long as it can. Some people just enter your life and just become a part of it and they are one of them. They rightly say 'A LOT CAN HAPPEN OVER A CUP OF COFFEE' and a guess waht for me a lot has already happened over a cup of coffee :)

THE CTC DEEPIKA CHUIN

Life at Metro Rail has been one hell of a roller coaster ride with its ups and downs , but we were able to tide over them smoothly mainly because of my colleagues and this one goes out for one such kiddo :P who may be is my junior but then has earned the right to be called a colleague as he has been with me through my ups and downs :)

I distinctly remember we had our get together at Puri and i was very eager to meet this guy as he was already present at the location i was transferred, and i had never heard his name.

So i landed in Puri and started to search for this guy. And my first impression was 'OMG what a smart and good looking guy, though he looked malnourished which he still does despite hogging away to glory in KFC,BARISTA,McDonalds and all such places.

So we came back from the trip and indulged ourselves in neck deep work. So about this so called chuin, he came across a very sophisticated guy in the beginning but all turned out to be jharphans as he is a total kid at his heart. I still remember how he cried when he remebered his girlfriend and all and then how quickly he recovered. Though he has a pathetic english (THE DEEPIKA EFFECT), sometimes he would just stump you over with his vocabulary. And yes he is a master at hogging at all expensive places but seeing his physique and all you just sometimes wonder that where does all the food go.(PROBABLY THE MID-DAY MEAL SCHEME EFFECT).

Probably the worst and may be the best side of him is his sentimental and emotional side. I have seen him cry (Sorry to let the secret out) from his heart but then he recovers quite quickly (Thats why post break up he has maintained an array of girls now, an array which has only insert properties). I was stunned at his knowledge as for a fresher he was quite knowledgeable and i have learnt linux. Most memorable are the times spent in Barista after office at Park Street and the 2 a.m. ccd trips :P

I have seen him as a broke and i have seen him as a confident guy, probably all his facets and he has always brought a smile on my lips,even though he is an absolute miser(ABCOS pending dude) he is a part of life now.

SO CTC CHUIN ROCKS :)
