Dinner amongst the stars.....

It has been more than 2 months since I last posted. Thats is because we (Soma and I) were busy with marriage, reception and then honeymoon...Soma came with me to KL after marriage and she has settled now.

Today we went for dinner to Menara KL's revolving restaurant which is 250 m above the ground. We were awestruck by the beauty of KL and her skyline. And what a fantastic spread in the buffet.

Shameek's Mumbai Visit and Soma's Delhi Farewell

I was in Mumbai and Nashik to perform a few rituals and poojas before marriage and what a hectic trip it was. We (Mom, Dad and Myself) visited Shirdi, Shani Shingapur and Nashik. Apart from the pilgrimage ;-), We also went to Sula Vineyard. Good Concept and a must visit if u r in Mumbai.....

Soma has put in her papers on 1st Feb and a high voltage tearful farewell on 8th Feb. Boy, she was really senti about quiting HCL. She also had a series of farewell get-togethers at her fren's place. Today she will be bidding tata to Delhi after staying there for more than 6 years.

Guys, I will be flying to Kolkata this friday and 16th is our Marriage Registration....

Still worried, Soma hasnt yet received the passport.

Flash back - Aug to Dec 2007......

So you have all read abt how we got to know each other......just to refresh ur memory - it was thru http://www.bengalimatrimony.com/ in Aug 2007



Sept 2007 - I met Soma in delhi during an official trip and spent 1.5 days with her...it was fun time....yeah her brother (Sunny better known in this blog as lonely.pirate; and known as Amit) was with us the first day.....this meeting can only be described over a drink...so invite me for a drink n u will have the story.....;-)....Tel expense was around RM 1000/- per month .....



Oct 2007 - Soma was in her native - Dhanbad for Dussehra hols and my parents met her....during this period we really did few interesting things....she called me along with her cousins at 4 am oneday n she with her cousins RAgged me.....My mom n dad liked her and it was decided that Soma's parents will meet me in Nov end...Telephone expenses RM 1500/-



Nov 2007 - I planned my trip to kol and requested Soma to also come to Kolkata so that we can spend some time....there is a twist this which i will share with you "on request"...anyway net net i reached kolkata on 30th Nov but Soma didnt...Telephone expenses RM 1800/-



Dec 2007 - Soma parents came to meet me on 1st Dec and I really impressed them....ha ha ha......i requested her mom n dad to ask soma to come to kolkata...she finally turned up in kolkata on 4th dec and i went to receive her...u shud have seen the glances we shared...hmmmmmm........then Soma came with her parents on 4th Dec to our place to meet my relatives.....by the way my nephew "Rikki" was there also to share his opinion...just check him out in this snap -

25 days to go.....

Yeeah the count is right!!!! The marriage registration will happen on 16th Feb so the count is 25 days to go...

At home (both mine n Soma's) the shopping is in full-swing...Mom spends more than 7 hrs everyday and Papa helps her on off-days....Soma's parents are also in Kolkata to do shaadi-shopping....

Tomorrow Soma's parents are coming to our place to discuss and plan the 3 big-days arrangement n functions.....Everybody is excited....

Soma has also started her bit of shopping n preparation in delhi....she will be leaving Delhi in feb...

myside i have outsourced my shopping to mom n everybody....so i m couching!!!! my only contribution is to invite frens...he ha ha...

My Singapore trip was good....my fren Shirish gave me an international calling card so I was able to speak to tikles everyday at scheduled time....

- Shameek


PS - BTW, have u guys watched "Jab we met"...fantastic movie....i have watched it 4 times....

Singapore tour n embargo on calling darling

I m in Singapore from today till friday and I have instructed by Tikles not to call (as roaming charges will be applicable) her....her worry is that I m spending too much on calls n this will constrain her spending power after marriage.....

Btw, my tickets for shaadi trip is confirmed...and Tikles flight tickets have been issued....interesting thing is she has a flight ticket but no passport...anyway we r confident that she will get her passport by jan-end.....

Tomorrow Tikles parents will be in kolkata to meet my parents and finalise the shaadi plans n preparation....yaar this marriage is a BIG PROJECT....u need PMP certified professionals....ha ha ha

PS- yesterday Tikles sent me a senti-sweet mesg....so I m having hang-over till now....cheers

Mobile network issue....

Since yesterday I am not receiving any sms from Soma...dunno if the problem is at india mobile network side or malaysia network....but this is not good....

Some posts back I had highlighted the only complaint I have with Soma is she doesn't respond to my sms pronto!!!! I think we have had arguments on this 3-4 times....and the excuse given by her is that though she remembers me every moment but when she wants to sms me she needs to think n send sms....hmmmm....now I didn't get this!!!! So I have been bugging her with my sarcastic comments n now her sms response time has improved....

But now Network has ditched us!!!!!
