I simply love this song and can't get enough of it. I think this is one of the best renditions and such a romantic song with flawless lyrics :). The song is Tu Hi Haqeeqat from the movie "Tum Mile" picturized on emraan hashmi and soha ali khan. Here are the song lyrics:
Tu hi haqeeqat khwaab tu
Dariya tu hi pyaas tu
Tu hi dil ki bekarari
Tu sukoon tu sukoon
Jaoon main ab jab jiss jagah
Paoon main tujhko uss jagah
Saath hoke na ho tu hai
Rubaroo rubaroo
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Aa tujhe inn baahon mein bhar ke
Aur bhi kar loon main kareeb
Tu juda ho toh lage hai
Aata jaata har pal ajeeb
Iss jahaan mein hai aur na hoga
Mujhsa koi bhi khush naseeb
Tune mujhko dil diya hai
Main hoon tere sabse kareeb
Main hi toh tere dil mein hoon
Main hi toh saanson mein basoon
Tere dil ki dhadkanon mein
Main hi hoon main hi hoon
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Kab bhala ab ye waqt guzre
Kuch pata chalta hi nahi
Jabse mujhko tu mila hai
Hosh kuch bhi apna nahi
Uff ye teri palken ghani si
Chaanv inki hai dilnasheen
Ab kise dar dhoop ka hai
Kyunki hain ye mujhpe bicchi
Tere bina na saans loon
Tere bina na main jiyun
Tere bina na ek pal bhi
Reh sakoon reh sakoon
Tu hi haqeeqat khwaab tu
Dariya tu hi pyaas tu
Tu hi dil ki bekarari
Tu sukoon tu sukoon
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera

New Mexico Weekend Trip
I think this is the fastest decision I have ever taken for a trip. We celebrated rakhshabandhan with my cousins on Thursday. My cousin mentioned that she was leaving to NM for one of her really good friend's wedding whom I also knew. She was driving and going by herself, so she invited me along with her. She called up her friend and confirmed if it was ok to bring me along and she said not a problem. Now it was up to me if I wanted to go. I was really tempted to go but I wasn't sure since I was covering for someone at work on Friday :(. Well I managed to arrange something and was off to pack my bag for the trip :).
I stayed at my cousin's place overnight and the next day we were on the road at 9 am. After 400+ miles and 6.5 hours of driving, we were in Albuquerque, NM. My cousin drove all the way with only half an hour break. Two of the things are very popular in NM that are adobe homes and chilles. Adobe homes were very different and unique compared to the wooden homes that you see everywhere in US and it also reminded me of homes in India since they seem very similar. We got to hotel and rested for while and then went to see the bride and the groom. It waas nice of my cousin's friend to let me be part of their celebration. After saying hello to the bride and her families, we went back to the room and ordered pizza. We were both very tired, so we called it a night early that day.
Next morning, we got ready by 8:30 am and headed to see some volcanoes that had been erupted 100,000+ years ago and now has become one of the sight seeing places in Petroglyph national park. There were hiking trails where you can hike to the top of the volcanoes and see the scenic view of the entire city. The hike was moderate and duable. There were 3 volcanoes in a row but we hiked to the first 2 and decided to skip the 3rd one since we assumed it was going to be the same as the first two :P. The 3rd one was a bit too far and looking at it, it wasn't going to be any different from the ones we already saw. The two volcanoes we did hike were JA Volcano and Black Volcano. As we got to the top, we saw more and more black volcano rocks which were pretty unique. Also on our way of hike, we encounted numerous variety of bugs that I have never seen in my life. Thankfully, no spiders though! After a 1 hour hike, we headed to go to Boca Negra Canyon where we saw the polygraphs along the 3 self-guided hiking trail where one of the hikes was pretty steep. And we are sure we heard chirping of a rattle snake on the way. Obviously, we didn't peak back to see what it was but instead started running towards the other side of the chirping :D. There were hundreds of carvings on the lava rocks that must have been made thousands of years ago by American Indians. Unfortunately, they didn't have much info on this, so I can't tell you much either. But overall, the whole experience was pretty neat.
After almost 3 hours of sight seeing and a lot of hiking, we were tired. Since the wedding was in the evening, we got back to the hotel in the afternoon, rested and started getting ready.
About the wedding: Location - fabulous, ceremony - fabulous, weather - perfect, people - too nice, and dancing - can't complain. In short, a beautiful wedding! The wedding was held outside on a golf course with the backdrop of beautiful mountains and sun shining high to welcome the bride and the groom. The family and friends of the bride and the groom were all so nice and so happy for both of them. Check out the view!
After the wedding, we headed to the reception, mingled with other friends, and then hit the dance floor hard! To be honest, there was a lot of alcohol flowing and a lot of people got drunk. We had to take the shuttle back to the hotel so took the final shuttle at 11:30 pm and I assure you that besides me, my cousin and the driver, everyone else was drunk! I even remember that one of my cosin's friend said out loud to the driver "Mr. human delivery man, please turn the car around" since he forgot to pick up the bride's sister :P. It was hillarious! She is awesome! We got back to our room and I immediately went to sleep.
Woke up next day and packed our bags. Met the bride and her family and said our good byes and started heading home around 11 am. On the way, we saw some beautiful scneary, miles and miles of mountains completely covered with green trees. But it kind of gets boring once we pass the Las vegas, NM until we come to Trinidad. Anyways, in the last hour of our trip, we hit the horrible traffic :(. Finally we get home around 6 pm. Home sweet home!
The trip was great and the wedding was fantastic. I don't mind road trips, but it gets very tiring when you have to sit through in traffic. Thanks to my cousin and my cousin's friend for inviting me and taking me to the wedding. It was great celebration and weekend well spent in New Mexico.

Seattle Trip 2010 - Day 7
July 10th was my last day in Washington state as I was leaving on early morning flight on Sunday, and it was the best day spent with my friend. My friend's friend had a group of 8-9 friends going to Bridal Veil Falls on Saturday so I was going with them also. The place is about 1 to 1.5 hours away from Redmond and includes a 2 mile hike to the top to get to the falls. I walk a lot but I have never hiked before so this was something new for me to try out. It took us about 1.5 hours going up with very rocky, hard, straight, down, steep, and narrow paths. In fact, the last half mile was extremely steep with stairs and rocky formations. We finally got to the falls and once I reached near the falls, the hike was completely worth it! It was an amazing view of the mountains from the top and the falls itself was a sight to see.
After spending an hour or so near the falls, we started to head down. I think hiking down is faster than hiking up, but it's much harder in a sense that hiking down puts more pressure on your knees and you have to keep control on your speed. Four of us out of 11 who went to the top got down first in an hour and then the rest of them followed one by one within 15-20 minutes. I was really tired after that 4 mile hike, but couldn't really tell if my legs were aching until I had to go up the stairs to the gate of the apartment complex :P. I could feel the pain in every muscle as I was walking up...haha...I guess it was a bit tough start for a newcomer hiker ;).
We got home and I took quick shower. Then went out to a restaurant for a nice evening dinner with my friend before I leave Washington. It didn't feel like the last day but unfortunately I had to leave the next day :(. Me and my friend came home, I packed my bags and then instead of going to sleep, we played the game of "gloom". That was the first time I was playing and I won :). Finally headed to bed around 12:30 am setting an alarm for 5 am. I wasn't going to get much sleep but I was planning to sleep on the 2.5 hours of flight anyway.
This was a great trip and a lot of fun. Taking lots of memories with me and a big Thanks to my dear friend for making this vacation really fun and enjoyable.

Seattle Trip 2010 - Day 5 & 6
Day 5:
My friend dropped me off at Redmond before going to work and I fell asleep again once getting to my friend's place. Remember, my plan today was doing nothing but relaxing and sleeping. I really needed the sleep and a break since we were roaming around for the past 4 days. The day kind of progressed as I got ready, ate lunch, watched Chak de! India again....
Day 6:
In the evening, I met one of my cousins at Microsoft where she works and then we went to the Bainbridge island and from there we went to a small town called Poulsbo with an Italian theme shops, and it has a nice walk by the lake side. The island is surrounded by Puget Sound. It got really late coming back so I went to her place and stayed there overnight. Came back to my friend's place in the morning. So two days of relaxation with little bit of site-seeing :).
Seattle Trip 2010 - Day 4
Today, we wanted to cover the last 2 attractions of the CityPass which are Woodland park zoo and museum of flight. Plus we had a tight schedule to cover these 2 since my brother was leaving today in 6:50 pm flight.
The day started with beautiful and sunny weather and initially we had planned to leave by 8:30 am but couldn't leave until 9:45. This was a minor set-back. We reached the zoo and explored the entire zoo in 3 hours. Unfortunately some of the animals were either sleeping or not visible, so that kind of made our trip quicker. We left the zoo around 1:30 to get a quick lunch at the subway and tried to leave right away for the Museum of flight. Keep in mind that my brother's flight was at 6:50 and we needed to be at the airport by 5:30 pm (I wish I was aware of the traffic at that time), we kept out trip moving forward to the museum. We got lost in the way but somehow made it to the museum by 3:20 pm.
I think this was one of the best museums I have seen so far. It was amazing to see all kinds of planes from century old styles to new fighter planes. Also they have Airpark hours where you can go in and see inside the Air force one airplane including some other ones like british airways, etc. This was one attraction I wish we had more time for. We could only spend an hour due to time constraint but if you are planning to go, then I would advice taking out at least 2-3 hours to see the entire museum. We actually couldn't see one of the exhibitions on the 2nd floor but that's ok.
Rushing out from the airpark around 4:30 pm, we planned to pick up my friend around 5 pm from her work and get to the airport by 5:30 pm. Good plan, right? Well the plan kind of went down the drain when we were stuck in traffic itself for an hour and got to my friend's office at 5:40 pm. The only thought rushing through my mind was that how are we going to get these 2 boys to the airport in time! Now it's not like the rush hour was going to be any less going the other way to the airport, but tension was high and I was freaking out....you can ask my friend :P. Finally we get my brother and my friend's brother to the airport at 6:20pm for a 6:50 flight....Thankfully it was Wednesday and the Seattle-Tacoma airport security screenings are not too bad. They made it to their flight and their flight took off just 3 mins after they got on. This tells me only one thing that they were the last two to be boarded on the plane...phew! That was very close call :-o. I was really tired by then but I was relieved that they were on plane :).
Now for the evening plan, I was going to meet one of my school friends after 10 years. I knew she was in Seattle so called her up since I was going to come. We decided to meet up for dinner. I got freshen up and she picked me up to go to the restaurant. She hasn't changed a bit and according to her I haven't changed a bit :). It was great to see her and meet her husband who is just as nice as her and fun person. We had dinner in an indian restaurant and great chat over all the school stories, friends, teachers, who is doing what and not....there wasn't enough time for us to catch up, so she asked me to spend the night at her place. I didn't really have any plan for the next day so I thought why not? On the way to her place, I heard her and her husband's college stories, surprise engagement party (yea, you read it right...it was a surprise engagement for her husband :P, I still can't stop laughing), and their wedding plans and preparation timeline. It was all fun. We got home and our chat was still not over. Me and my friend talked about our school, her college, our friends and much more, so don't really know what time we fell asleep. That concludes the end of Day 4 :).
Honestly, these 4 days have been really tiring, so that's why I had not planned anything for July 8th and wanted to just relax and sleep all day. I still went to some places with friends but it was relaxing instead of continuous site-seeing. Next you will get the updates of Day 5 and 6 together since there is not much going on.
Tata!

Seattle Trip 2010 - Day 3
As much as I love to sleep in, I had to get up at 7 am because of 2 reasons. One, we had a solid plan to cover all 4 attractions in Seattle downtown if we left home on time and two, I had to make the sandwiches for lunch :). Made the sandwiches, all 3 of us got ready, and headed to catch the bus to downtown. My friend was working that day so it was going to be me, my brother, and my friend's brother. Now before going to Seattle, I had decided to take the Seattle CityPass which covers 6 attractions for 1 low price of $59! I think it's a great deal if you want to enjoy the hot spots of Seattle. Since my brother was going to be in the city for only 4 days, we got the CityPass, but there is even a better deal called "Go Seattle Card" which covers about 35 attractions for around $130 which you can use over 7 days. We didn't have that much time, so we decided to go with CityPass. The 6 attractions were Argosy 1 hour harbor cruise, 2 visits to space needle, admission to Seattle aquarium, admission to Pacific science center with one 2D/3D imax movie, admission to Woodland park zoo, and admission to Museum of flight. Now that's one good deal!
Our first stop was argosy 1 hour harbor cruise. Now we got there an hour earlier than the cruise was scheduled, so we just waited around the shore. It was a beautiful day, sunny and warm, so we waited until 10:30 and then got first in the line for 11 o'clock cruise. Now here is a tip for all of you....take the first cruise of the day because it'll be less crowded and you can get the seats on the top deck for the best view. The tour started at 11 am and we had a great view of the Seattle skyline/downtown, mountain ranges, and the best view of the Mount Rainer. Here is one of the good shots of Mount Rainer. Our tour guide was also nice and knowledgeable, so it made the tour more interesting. We came back from the tour in an hour and had our lunch.
Next stop on the agenda was Seattle aquarium. Argosy cruises and the aquarium are so close to each other, we had less than 5 minute walk to get there. We spent about 35-40 minutes tops at the aquarium and saw big octopus, sea otters, jelly fish, etc. Overall the aquarium was ok...if you don't have kids and going by yourself, you can cover the aquarium in 45 minutes max, not more than that.
After the aquarium, we started heading to Pacific science center which was about 1.2 miles from the aquarium. The weather was great and we were not tired so we decided to walk. Plus the walk is right by the waterfront so you have a great view as well. It took us approx. 25-30 mins to get to pacific science center. Since we had citypass, it included an imax ticket (40 min movie) for one of their discovery movies, so we got the tickets for "The Living Sea". Overall was a good experience and fun time that we were there for almost 3 hours.
The final stop of the day was the Space needle visit. Space needle was extremely close to the pacific science center with less than 5 minute walk. With CityPass, you get 2 visits to the observation deck, and once you go on the top, you can stay there until they close. We went to the top, took pics, and chilled for a while. I could spend hours there just overlooking the downtown and beautiful sunshine from a big height. I wanted to also see the night view from space needle, but since the sunset was pretty much late around 10 pm, we left the needle to go to dinner. We met up with my friend, had some great and spicy indian food at Kabab house and then went to Kerry Park for night view of the space needle and downtown from some distance. It was gorgeous!
It was already night and I wanted to go back to space needle for a night view of the city, so went back and enjoyed the breathtaking view. Here is a snap of night view, but let me be honest that my camera does not do the justice to the view that I saw and what was captured.
We got back around 11:30 and we were dead tired. I don't know about others but I was already falling asleep but somehow managed to get up and change and then go back to sleep :D. End of Day 3. More fun to come in the zoo and Museum of flight on Day 4. Oh and also my brother and my friend's brother leaving the next day in the evening flight, so got a tight schedule.

Seattle Trip 2010 - Day 2
After a hectic 4th of July, we all somehow managed to get ready by 11:30 am on July 5th to keep our plan for Olympic game farm. We grabbed a lunch to go and were on our way to the safari. First on the clock was the ride to the Kingston via ferry where you can go on the ferry with your car.....30 minute ferry ride gave us time to eat on the boat :). Once we got to the Kingston, our drive included scenic views, mountain ranges, greenery all around, lots of trees, and finally to the stop of Safari (Olympic game farm).
We spent an hour in safari which included the close ups of yak, deer, elk, Bison, Brown and black bears, llamas, tiger & lion (those two were in cages and sleeping), and some other animals. The best part was when any of the animals came close to the car, the two brothers will try to show off by pulling down the windows in the back and my friend and I freaking out and my friend screaming out of scared horizon (if that's a real word :D). And I am not joking, I have a proof on my camcorder :P. At one point, our car was surrounded by all the bison which looked like they were being flirtatious with her car. They left their dirt mark on the car on both sides :P. It was fun!
After the safari, we went to a nearby STIP in Kingston which was beautiful. Here is a glimpse at the shore. We took pictures and stayed there for a while. The good thing was that there was no crowd...there might have been maybe 2 or 3 other people besides 4 of us, so it was nice and peaceful.
After the photo session at the STIP (I think that's what it was called), we started heading back to catch the ferry. On our way, there was already a display from a mile before which read that the ferry will have approximately 2 hour wait! Seriously, they don't kid around when they said 2 hour wait. We had rediculous over 2 hour wait before we could go on the ferry and then add another 30 minutes on the ferry.
After we got off the ferry, it was still day light. Let me tell you first that the sun rises in Seattle around 5 AM and does not go down until 10 PM. You have the longest day ever! We all went to the Fremont troll afterwards. If you want to go to fremont troll and don't know the proper directions, you might want to know the exact directions b/c otherwise you will get on the wrong side of the highway. It takes a while before you can turn back to get on the other side. The thing is really hard to find since it's under the bridge, but once you get under the bridge, you can not miss it.
After taking some snaps, we stopped by at subway before heading home. By this time, we all were completely out of energy since we have been doing non-stop sightseeing. Our next day was going to be covering 4 attractions in seattle downtown from our CityPass (which I will explain in next day), so I wanted to prepare lunch ahead of time so we can save time by not going to restaurant and waiting forever. I prepared the potato stuffing for the sandwich and went to bed around 12:30 am. Sunday and Monday have been great days but they were little chilly, so I was kind of excited for tuesday since it was going to be sunny and warm. More excitement to come.....Watch out!

Sunday and Monday have been great days but they were little chilly, so I was kind of excited for tuesday since it was going to be sunny and warm. More excitement to come.....Watch out!
