Happy New Year (Shubho Naboborsho)
First of all I wish you all a very Happy new year.
In the Bengali calender, New year starts from April 14th or 15 th, which depends upon the lunar calender.
The first day is Poila Baishak.
I know many of the lunar calender of different states are also celebrating their first unveiling. So very Happy New year to you all too..and to my dear fellow bloggers who never missed any moment celebrating with me.
This day have a special significance in every Bengali's life. Today businessmen start new ventures and new account sheets, so it is the month of sale of old stocks ( Anjuli di stocks ka matlab..dukano ka stock..aapka BSE type ka nhi :P ) ...and if you had ever been in Kolkata during this time, you will find kolkatans hell busy with bargaining. The roads hell jammed, atmosphere filled hawkers shouts and so much of light.
With time it changed it's meaning in my life.
When I was kid, it was the time of excitement of getting new dresses , when I was in my early adoloscent age, it was the time of watching girls; when I was in my middle and late teenage, it was the time of buying new pairs of jeans and chance maring hotties :P ; when I was just Adult, it was the time of roaming with my gf and hiding from her and my parents.
Now, with increasing maturity, I found myself literally forgetting the day itself. lol
So let's go together with my new year day :P
The day started with a hearty Boy's talk with Samby, then I went to sleep at 4 AM. Then I woke up with a call from Sarah, she was wishing me a happy new year, but I was so sleepy then that I answered her call and slept talking to her :P. She was pissed :P
Today, as it coincided with Navratri's last day, I was on fast. So I actually slept a bit much. I woke up again when dad called me to wish me New year :P,and I looked at my clock to fing its 11 AM. So I decided, lets sleep for one more hour :P, the next time I woke up when I was having dinner with Cindy in my dreams in her wedding day, when she spilled the hot soup on me :P. I glanced my watch, it was 1:30 PM. I understood the reason of such a dream when I found an Elephant race going on my stomach :D ,heheheh..I was dead hungry then :P.
So i decided to quit my bed and went to the bathroom with my brush, then i had my bath,got ready and then went to the Mandir.
After the Puja, I decided to take some watery food..so I had one Lassi..but was so hungry then that I ended up finishing three frootis and two cold drinks by 6 PM. lol
So much of having a fast:P
Then I went to my supervisor's place to wish him , there he told me that why are you on fast today...today is Poila Baishakh...you should be gorging today :D
So, I decided top break my fast in the night, so I went to Ming's garden , a restuarant famous for its chinese.
In Ming, waiter came up with menu..and there was nothing I can order that I can eat alone...So I decided to taek a mini meal there. It was the worst meal I ever had. It was full of cabbages :P..I tried searching for the noodles but couldn't find any :P., but the sizzling brownie was awesome :)
There was this hottie chick, who was sitting alone in the adjacent table. So my time in the restuatrant passed by smoothly :P upto the end when I broke into a quarrel with the manager who refused to give me our college discount as the bill was already out. :| But I managed myself not hitting the poor guy for Rs. 20 of the discount :P, then also people call me impatient. huh :|.
I returned back , and found that my light is gone again for the seventh time. It came just an hour ago..:)
So it was a wonderful day :P and the best part was the hot chick..she was really hot. :P
I started a new poll..so plz all of you must answer it ....
:)
Love you all

ReplyDeletep/s: about the cost, i'll email you later k
Thanks diva :)
ReplyDeleteand u too have a blasting new year :)
actually dis bengali year is actually based on lunar calender..so everything is bit different...there is more trivia..in europe too April first was regarded as the new year...but they changed later to 1st January...but peasants used to celebrate it on 1st april only so the royals used to call the day as fool's new year...and so we still celebrate it as April fool's day...
Actually the onset of summer and harvesting the crops is the reason behind ours...it starts a new beginning in the life of farmers and so is the new year
Hi! It's really nice to be able to celebrate new year in April. You guys are really lucky! Enjoy the festival. ;)
