Vivek's new Chat friend(female as he/she claims)

well..while our PS was going on...
one fine day... a add request came to my vivek's messenger..
he added her to his messenger list... she claims herself to be doing her graduation in hyderabad.. and she knows little bangalore....

we dint knew who she was... tried to find out her but all our measures dint result in any conclusion....
He did chat with her for quite enough time and she managed very well not to give a clue reg her identity.... finally one day suddenly the chat stopped donno why...

sometimes we also joined in his chat to find out who she was.... but of no use....

vivek had a great chat with her i guess.....

Sudheer Sunil

well among all of us... sudheer tried alot to make new friends among the female community using social networking sites.... well he did make some friends.. and also landed up in attracting one among same gender.... his name is SUNIL... after this guy came into sudheer's life everyday of Su started with sunil's SMS and continued with his SMS and even ended with his SMS...
his scrap book for the day will definitely have Sunil's scrap...
his recieved call list for the day used have his number...
sunil once met sudheer and he captured that wonderfull memory as a pic in his phone and uploaded into his photos tagging as "TWO COOL DUDES"...

after a hard work sudheer got rid of this guy.... but he gave us enough entertainment all thru ...

We asked that broker for a house in Indiranagar and he could not help us...
we then started our move without any direction.. and found a brokers office.. and asled them for an 2 BHK or 3BHK in Indiranagar he showed some and we did not liked them.... meanwhile we got transfered from that broker to another and again a tranfer happened and finally got one house in Kodihalli or HAL IIIrd stage in Indiranagar...
