GET TOGETHER Now a day , I am not getting my net connection properly . I missed a lot from these days . My mind was not so free in these days . But it was not busy too . It was , in fact , like a room of a naughty kid . Everything is scattered here and there . It was very hard to find anything from there all of a sudden . Even the things in front are not caught sight . In short , a fog of uncertainty and uneasiness were filled everywhere . The rein of mind in my hand is loosened to speed up its way . But it was trudging . The reason is , sure , not the lack of determination . Normally my determination and decisions were stubborn . But now something around is catching me . But I need to go . The paining head , I need to heal . Day before yesterday , my schoolmates who left out in the year 1988 after the completion of secondary schooling met together at our School . I was late in the function which was decided to be conducted even before three or four months back while I was abroad . That was a nice idea which was sparked in the mind of one of my intimate friends who was working abroad . He communicated me and I encouraged him to go on . Even before this , I had my face book page titled with my school name . Actually I was misunderstanding with the date of the get together function . I was hasted to the function from a distant place when I was telephoned by my dearest friend , intimating me that the function was started a little time before . He thought that I was in my home . When I informed that I was in a distant place , he cut off the phone , saying that he would call me later . When I reached , the function was on the way . One of my intimate friends , who became a local politician and an advocate , was on the speaker ' s desk with his hand caught hold of the neck of the mike . He was elaborating his eloquence with his newly polished work of art . On the stage , I could see my teachers , not all , but a few sitting in between my two friends . One was my intimate friend who was a political leader of a medium party in state level . Other also equally important to me was also holding a good post in political area . The second one was chairing the function. I shook hand to all of them and sat in the front bench with my dearest friend who became the owner of two leading restaurant in London , after waving my hands to all my school mates and their family . After a while I moved back near to my other friends for sharing a few moments . Still my friend was tightening his hand on the microphone neck .
