So its your 22nd birthday and i hope i'm the 22nd person with this message
(parth edit karke bich meh mat daal de) and since its your birthday i'm supposed to write something sappy or mawkish which is something i don't do, but still i'll take a crack at it and don't worry i'll be brief
So whats special about this birthday is that you'll be graduating soon, it'll be time to step out of college and into the real world , time to put on those big boy (read girl) pants. And i earnestly wish you the very best in life and pray that you do great in life. But as we grow older the paths we choose will only take us further away from each other but i sincerely hope that we'll be good friends. I earnestly hope that over the years, 'stay in touch'  does mean something and doesn't become a trite expression .Because I've known you for six years now and thus far, you are one of the very few people i am still in touch with after all these years and i hope we still will be in future (call me naive but i believe that we'll still be in touch ), one who has remained a great friend.

LOL
{Lots of (friendly)love  }

P.S :
1) This is super awkward sending this to Parth.
2) I'm sorry i forgot your birthday, maaf karde please

Dearest Netra..

Many happy returns of the day!!!

First of all I thank god for giving me such a wonderful kiddo sis.. who was born on Aug 19 

We share a wonderful relation, more of friends and unlike sisters. Netra knows in and out about me,nothing's hidden from her and it's vice versa too. I have been always close to her and enjoy all those small moments whenever we are together.

I have grown up by listening to her 'eiya chechi' which was always a cutie moment.

She's outspoken, loving, caring and a good human being. We share a different bond and would never let that die.

I wish her all success, wealthy and healthy life ahead.

Mom Dad!

Wish you a very happy birthday Netra! God bless you! We always thought of you as an immature girl who is fun loving and focused, but the way you started taking care of ammuma changed the perception. Even through your debacles you have come out stronger and braver. One thing I love about you is even when fighting through your troubles you fought with tears in your eyes and you come out stronger. You have proved everyone that you are not weak; you are one girl with whom one cannot mess. One of the rarest qualities you have is you are humble and you are satisfied with what you have, your humble nature will take you a long way. This is one quality which comes from your father. He is very proud of you as well, he was really happy after you got your results. You have a service rendering nature and you are self satisfied. Luxuries aren't your priorities. You always retort when we are in an argument but then we know you love us and we love you too. To this day people in kerala remember you and you impartial nature with their kids they still talk about how you used to carry kids in your arms and play with them. You have many values and you make us proud. The way you handled your school friend back in the day was amazing. One thing is if you set your goal on something you will get it no matter what! You are a go getter! Keep that attitude always with you.

We are always with you. J

Love

Mom and Dad!

Hey Netra, happy birthday! Firstly it is a real privilege to have you in my life, you are one amazing person. I am sure you have read too much today and you are a little emotional but you have a big day today good luck with your exams! I am sure you will do awesome and remember to never give up on that dream of yours.

Me: Neil yaar man train kab aayegi lets take a ric.

Neil: Rukja re it will come.

After this moment everything has been just amazing. You spotted me in that crowd; you were probably late for college as usual. You first words were, “hey how have you been, so long.” I was stunned because I didn't think of all the people you will recognize me. This was the first time we met since 2008 after the reunion. Those eyes made me fall for you then and there. Later on we started taking and you know the rest. Netra I want to take this opportunity to thank you for being in my life. We have grown together as individuals. I can go on and on and never tire myself talking about you. You are a great person and you have always been there whenever I needed you. I am not going to write more here, something else is on its way, just keeping it short because you have exams today. Go study live your dream. I am here for two moments now and forever. 

Love

Parth.

Well, what do I say. Netra Nair, she always had this particular time bar before which she had to be home. While the rest of us did not really care about the clockand its running styles. And so it happenes. Vision’s 10, our first annual college youth festival. We were attending something like this for the first time. Absolutely stunned with our eyes popping out of socket moments. Jaw dropping open and stays there momenteraily. Usually always on the run, but Netra forgot the time that one fine day. It was the dance night. The fabulous street dancing and all the group dances made us forget the timeor maybe we chose to overlook it. Aunty started calling, so began the run, panic. But the security wont let anyone out for their reasons. Inspite of reminding her about the time, Madam had let go the fact, as she rally did not wish to miss the street dance. But it had a price to pay. We had to move out of the college. Tears welling up in the eyes, not mine obviously. You know whose eyes :p and we thought to try our luck. Maybe sweet words would help us through. Few drops of tear would surely run in for help. We went there but but the security fellow just did not budge. And Netra noticed a metamorphosis which she calls “billi to sherni” moment. I had to stand up for you know who. Letting down the pitiful imageand after waiting for 10 mins three times, I was surely fed up. Describing the conversation isnt needed here, but we canme out of the college with  that and then tears stopped sky cleared and light filled up our road. That’s Netra fun loving and panicky and when she panics, that is out of the scope of this blog, we shall keep it for some other time! :P

Nisha

My first day in music class...and I was introduced to this girl...who was way far a better singer than me...and that was when we first met..!! I still remember those stupid conversations we used to have discussing on someone's style of singing and all those stuffs...then when nihari came...we have had all of it...right from bitchings till speaking stuffs which didn't make any sense..cursing sir for one or the other reason or laughing our hearts out...we have done it all...I have seen all of you...your so so hypered face...tensed as if the world is going to end...your stupidity...your shinchan voice haha...even your voice of daya from taarak mehta...your bad singing...your good singing days...your bad throats coz of medical experiments..we were always together from the start and obviously we will continue to be together always...you know a medical study says, "Friends who have been good or best friends for more than seven years stay for a lifetime" and so will we 3 be..!! Always together... There would be times when we wont talk with each other coz of buzy and hectic schedules of our life but whenever we'll meet..I am sure we'll continue from where we had left...and yaa thats it...have a wonderful life ahead...have a great time..enjoy the day...its your day...be happy always...happy birthday...!!!

Nihari

On this special occasion I have so much to tell you. It's been 7 years... You have been there for me every single time.. I already have uncountable memories with you which will be cherished always.. Laughing, crying, singing, dancing, gossiping, bitching, hanging out, falling in and out of love, getting frustrated.. We have done it all. The bond that we three share is just too special that will be forever. We may not meet regularly but every time we meet, we are all the same crazy little girls. You are honest and funny and the most loving person. You are a perfect Leo. Thank you for being so awesome. I'm always Me when I'm with you. You have guided me in my every difficult phase. I can't even imagine my music classes without you and Nisha. Words can't express how much I adore you. I love you so so so much!! Happy birthday Girl We will have a blast together irrespective of your exams coming up God bless you. Always be the same.

Many many happy returns of the day. An educational or rather occupational start to your 22^nd birthday. 19^th august since last 4 years had to be planned months back and this year too is a big plan “EXAMS” hahahahaah.

I have been told to to write SOMETHING about you or rathersome memories we shared together but the person who told me to do so I think doesn’t know that there is no SOMETHING to pen down about.

So the first meet DY Patil, Rabab introducing that’s Netra Nair a simple formal hie with a hug and a smile. CP’s people on looking at me used to say that I am arrogant. Physio boring lectures and biochem torture class bunked which I never bunked and you being the CR employiing the DY campus. The biggest transition from DY to GS medical college and a bigger transition in me u and we. 1^st year was fun masti goint to know each other moresilly fights with shalaka and me always making u understand instead of shalaka ( I still admire you people fighting )that defines you being shalaka’s bff.

2^nd year we were drowned, grief, guilt, shoulders to cry , till the eyes were swollen, moma’s yelling, more tears but still a strong hope to pass the next year and studying as never studied before.

Oops! How can I forget the masti keeda “THE TRIPS”.  Matheran, Madhvi’s farmhouse an apparent non existent authority to stay with us. The terrace dance, scaring shalaka, monkey’s enjoying kurmuras and the river. (OMG Netra it was real fun but you missed it.)

Then comes the epic Mahableshwar amazing, awesome, fantabulous trip. Being ankita’s mom was fun just to take permission for shalaka , which you badly wanted. Pataofying your mom Netra nahi aayegi toh kaise chalega aunty (acha nahi lagta aise..) The sleepy driver uncle dore mat daal and more following.

Mood swing of the lady bite, and the best swimming and returning with lots of memories. Haash….its two pages now and more two to write (as ordered)

The valentine Vashi gaaliyans the real bitch was out holi, diwalis the birthdays , world cup the horny nightouts and FUTURE and still lot mor to come the happy days. The morning days fall ke haath aa gayi mein day,irrresponsible and corset bhul gayi mein aaj.

But yes you are a pure soul by heart, carefree by nature and best at being bitch. Your honest thoughts, priority lene wale statements, The PJ queen attitude (u cant compete meera) eye filling teary face, the kitta shoni hai laughter, painful, emotionless tantrums. That’s what makes you NETRA MOHAN NAIR.

All this the dumb person will never know that these four years can never be writter in 2-3 pages, but I conclude here. Always be the same…..

Happiest birthday to you…

Taslina

Hi pagli.. kaisa tha aaj ka exam? Kal ke liye all the best…haha what a great way to start your 22^nd birthday. Anyways sweetheart a very very happy birthday to you. May this day be extra special for you, I am sure it will be, apart from exam tension take some time and enjoy your day baadmein eat my head whole night I wont mind.

To write down everything about our friendship is difficult because there is a tremendous change to what we were and what we are now. Your vide has always been good since our first year itself. You were and are always easy to read, friendly, polite but still a bit distant. Then came second year got to know more about you all the fun, celebrations, inventions, fun and finally in the end results, reevaluation and one more result. Through all this we all were each other’s strength. I still remember the day I was crying like hell and you were there besides me soothing me and we landed in our new world of casuals which according to you helped us to be more close to each other. And with each others support we accepted the fate and her we are moving through everything with loads of memories to be treasured forever.

You always shared anything and everything be it your happiness or sadness and of course abhi to aur zyaada jabse part by part someone came into your life, everyday new happiness new stories  chupke chupke sab batana all together new version of netra with loads of sharmana and blushing.

Aise we have so many memories to share with loads of laughter following and as I am told to pen down one particular heart touching moment here I use this opportunity to thank you that you have made me feel  important in your way many times when we had a group fight and when no one else was talking, you were the one who wanted me and kejal to come back and finish the fight because you didn’t like the indifference and staying away and during these days when I was really low you texted me saying that you are always there whenever I feel  talking about anything which is making me low and that I can remove all the frustration on you so that mood thik ho jaye mera, that was really very sweet of you Netra. You are a person with true heart and very easy to read, you never like to lose any relation which you consider very dearest and near to your heart. We have seen many examples through these years where you handle every problem every fights not just with your bff but with anyone just because that person matters to you then any situational fights. This shows what you are and how much importance you give to people who are close and really matter to you. And so as I say I am glad to know you so much more through these years and glad to feel  and know that you consider me a close friend of yours.

I like your carefree fun loving cheerful nature , that’s what defines you netra kaa mood gaya ya netra is low toh everyone around will know and ask whats wrong because no one likes you other then what you are today so you know what you have to do. Be the same always.Now in this final year and the internship ahead we have loads of time to add on more to the treasure of memories we have now before we go apart to chase our dreams and I am sure wherever we will be tomorrow miles apart we will have a part of our hearts longing to bring back these moments we are spending now. With this I wish you a happy birthday again sweetheart with loads of lovebas bahut padh li aage kiska mat padh kal exam hai chal study.

Okzzz I have no idea where to begin with because you are a person I have so many memories with. To pick out one from those is a very tedious job but due to “my lord Parth’s” wish I have to.

You are the person in my life who screams “NEVER GIVE UP” attitude. Never give up on people this is what you taught me. You taught me come worse but you will believe in yourself and the faith you have in the person close to you.

I got a first hand example of this in mahableshwar on my beautiful mood swin day. You were aware ki I was not in my good mood, not talking, was snapping at people at no reason whatsoever but you were the one asking me again and again are you alright? Including me in the topic of discussion, being there and just talking to me even though I was not replying. But my rudeness didn’t jitter you you were there with me at every step.  I am so sorry for snapping at you that day and thank you cause I know you have forgiven me.

I have never said this out loud but you have been one of the best people I have ever met. You taught me the value of friendship, value of being together, caring for people more then needed. Thank you for staying in my life though I have pushed you away so many times. Thank you for always clawing your way back in.

Love you so much. Always be the same and most important thing stop freaking out and taking unnecessary tension.

Shalaka

To the person who makes the most and the person who loves over vocalising creepy environmental sounds which annoy me(and ever other sane person.)

I am writing this to you as our beloved tas has asked me to give the world tip on how to survive and live peacefully with Netra Nair kidding she just asked me to join the NGO called ‘Save the Netra’s’ kidding again. The subject is a moment to remember or an unforgettable memory with you.

So come lets jog down the memory lane. The first time I met you was in winter of 2010 near the lift in DY Patil your first words were Hiiee I am Netra Nair CRrrrr… It was funney the way you took pride in your postion. But after that I noticed I liked the child like shimmer in your eyes and honesty in every syllable you spoke with so much enthusiasm. It was like I already knew you for a long time.

Our conversation would last for hours wouldn’t end till mid night they still do….(touch wood). Loved roaming in new gardens, going to cueta’s farm house, eating frankie on the station, going to malls in this place called vashi, had never even heard of it before that. When I left DY I remember feeling that horrible moment when I was alright the entire day but as soon as u got up at kurla I remember something dawning on me. Realization  had finally hit me. I was lucky I didn’t have to feel that way for long as you got admission here in KEM.

You were the first person I ever opened upto. I was being so used to being alone in so many emotionally wrecking situations that I would have never undestood the comfort of company or what it felt like to have someone to be there for me.

And the matheran trip was the epitome of this. I replayed that trip a gazillion times in my mind. I remember crying so much on a day I cleared my exams cause you had a KT. I also remember laughing and dancing with out group and nightouts and special occasions in my house.

Loved my birthdays, no one has ever done so much for me before. Even now when I am on my terrace I remember giggling with you under the night sky talking and talking for hours eating your chocolate in your chocolate doughnut and pushing you away to protect mine.

I hope we have many more such moments in the future. See you’re the cheese in my white pasta, toppings in my pizza and chilli in my chilly chicken, sauce in my sandwich chocolate on my donut, without you my life would be bloody tasteless.

So always remember that you my friend arent “KALI”. That’s just Kejal.

You are perfect and count the things you have , the people around you, especially those who are watching you read this thing and chuck the things you missed……. I love you always!!
