Tribute to my 2600


When I went that day, was still undecided about what exactly I was looking for. There were two of them from which I could choose. One was a nice glossy thing, shining brightly and asking me to grab her and take her home. The other was a quite little thing unassumingly standing in a corner. I was in a dilemma about which one to pick, but my friend had warned me not to trust the glossy thing because he feared it will ditch me soon and move away from my life. So after some thoughts and afterthoughts, I took the one whom I thought will accompany me for atleast a few years. And so it has. Two years its been from the day I first saw her. And she still smiles back at me every time I look at her. Guess have not spent a single day without her the last 731 days. It is like I am handicapped when she’s not around. she's never spoken to me till date but still she shares my joys and sorrows. She’s grown old now. Having a faded look about her now and lots of injuries caused due to my butter fingers. I know eventually I will discard her but still those memories I’ve shared with her will always remain. Come March 3rd 2009, I surely will have a new companion. But my first love has definitely served me well.
