Met up with my school friends after a good five year haul….surprisingly, not much has changed…by which I mean that our goofysms continue to prevail! :)

Not everybody could make it to our adda, the mighty CP, but there we were...all sinister 13 of us.

Managed to get enough space in dear ol’ café coffee day….and the fun began as soon as we planted ourselves on the…well….not so plush couches, and the staid chairs…but who gave a damn!! We were meeting after FIVE years and there was other stuff to think about than the comfort of our backside!!! ;)

A round of sandwiches, coffees and lemon ice teas, our tongues loosen up a bit and the gup-shup begins…yes, we springdalians are chronic gossip-mongers innit?! ;) (YEEEAAHH)

Thirteen (re)introductions and a lot more “confessions” into the evening and we get ready for the foto sessions…more gossip…teasing Salil…



A week later, and i sit here, reminiscing about the days when basketball and canteen trips ruled our world…


Kriti : My darling baby…hasn’t changed a BIT…as loopy as ever :) aaj kal she’s in the ‘oil’ business! :D

Nishank : I remember how he struggled through his…ahem… portly days and then blossomed into a beautiful butterfly (hehehehe). The way he used to count calories in the canteen-made patties!!! “aaloo?? ARE U CRAZYYY??? pata hai isme 589 calories hain!!! Cant have this yaar…tooooooo fattening!!” after a year of this too-oily-cant-eat-this phase, his tummy went in and he got this crazed out concave shape!!! Cut to 2006, and a stint in France, our dear MBA bwoy looks much better ;) Have fun in Nice kid, and don’t forget to bring back that shiney disco ball!

Salil : Sal – The math wiz!!!! His definition of ‘single’ – could be going around…but not married! Dude…ure the DON!!! ;)

Gauri: My most vivid and best memories of ours are of the innumerous hours we spent on the BB courts!! Man! The slightest of chances and we were there, dribbling away to glory! Betting on 21 shots with varun, and then making him treat us to pepsi!! Uh…btw, Gaur u HAVENT put on any xtra weight! ;) hehehehehe Babe! U looked just fine…specially the second chin…!! Salsa classes huh?? Nice….sign me up yaar!

Tanuj : The original “Rock” man!! ;) he taught us how to do the rock eyebrow lift…there was a proper muscle training that we had to undergo, serious stuff!! Remember all those extra classes with MOM Bakshi?…damn! Chemistry padh-padh ke dimaag hil jaata tha!!
Dude! U remain as huggable as ever!! :)

Perseus : Ah! Percy…cute, witty, and grey cells oozing even from his nails!! The little goatie was ADORABLE man!! Our Singapore plan stands! ;)

Arun: How could u NOT have a crush in school?????? Damn! Bwoy…weren’t there enough hotties in dear ol’ SPS?

Mansi: doctor saab!! Ure gonna do us proud aren’t u? :) good going girl! Although im a little surprised that u still have all ur body parts intact! There wasn’t a single day in school that Mansi Sharma had seen through without having bumped into a few tables and/or chairs, and spilling ink on her shirt. :) Had so much fun in the Biology lab, dissecting those cockroaches, borrowing blood and spit from each other! ;)

Shobit: Ah! The big business man! He sits in café coffee day as if he were in a board meeting cracking a deal for his next hotel! :) dude, we’ll get discounts right??

Anchal Batra: The quite, reticent person who very rarely got ruffled up at anything. Now, five years later, she remains as pretty, calm and contained! Your birthday parties rocked, girl!!! Ummm…padhai khatam ho gayi? ;)

Varun Grover: He was quite a hunk in school days, and im happy to say that he still is…more so!!! ;)

Aanchal Kapoor: The i-don’t-give-a-damn-what-others-think attitude…that was and IS Aanchal for u! The forever effervescent girl with that infectious laugh…Babe!! U make the most morbid of moments seem bright and nice!! We wouldn’t have met had it not been for ya! (so when do the auditions begin?? Mujhe bhi toh star ban na hai! hehehe)

Btw, sorry people for the horde of (mis)information that I provided, but it was ALL varun wadhwa’s fault!!!! Sigh! Wat can I say?? You just cant trust the grapewine anymore these days!!! ;) So, the guys can breathe easy for the time being!!!!

Had a wonderful time that day…more than a reunion it was a reminder of all the good times we had back then…An evening well spent…An effort well made!

SPS RULEZZZZZZZ!!!!!!! :)
