Caffeine memoirs! :)

Lazy Sundays are awesome but the prowling Monday blues are the spoilers. Today, I happened to watch the Filmfare awards which as always had some classic and also some equally lame performances.The legendary Manna Dey happened to bag the lifetime achievement award for his outstanding contribution to Indian cinema.  For me, he symbolises the unforgettable 'COFFEE HOUSE' song and it never fails to bring in waves of nostalgia.

Although Bombay doesn't have a 'Coffee House' to match the original's credentials,our Baristas and CCD's sort of served the same purpose. 'A lot can happen over a cup of coffee' and it surely did! Endless gossip sessions,squirts of laughter, crisis situation discussions and sombre goodbyes..the coffee joints have seen it all. Not to mention the famous cutting chai ;)

Sundays are meant for dedicated ,endless skype sessions and this song brought back treasured memories.
Mention of the mass bunking sessions, the enthu in watching even the most hopeless movies,the memorable shopping bargains,the 'crushes and slushes' talks and last but not the least : the train journeys keep popping up. It's during moments like these that I miss those special people who stayed with me on the journey so far and wish they weren't continents away. Just a few hours of torture sessions a week doesn't suffice!

As many close ones are about to undergo joyous transitions, I wish I could be there to share the moment. But virtual memoirs will suffice for the time being :)

Here's raising a toast to all the special ones and stronger bonds for the years to come.

And last but not the least..the coffee house song which started the string of thoughts :)
