out as she had promised that she will find me wherever I am and keep in
touch. And I thought, I must get in touch with her and see where she is.
And then, 2 days later, I hear this news. I was shocked and later when I
heard that she is survived by her husband and 3 month old baby, I was in
tears again! May GOD give them all the strength to bear this loss, and I
know she will guide her daughter from heaven. Akhil, she was one of my
favourite juniors and the feelings were mutual. I am really sorry.

| Name : Arun
Jain |
| Information about Yourself

NinaSaxena |
Your Message :
Nina Saxena must have touched the hearts of
each and every person she would have interacted with in her short
life. I am sure people cannot forget her ‘hi’, ‘hello’ and ‘smile’,
all of which used to radiate with positive energy.
She was
very smart and exceptionally intelligent. I remember she foxed me
one evening asking some tricky questions. She was a great friend.
She was never afraid to put across her viewpoints. I
remember she asked me once-“Do you drink?” and then followed it up a
few months later with the question “How often do you drink?” and
after I answered, she followed it up with a comment ”that’s a better
way of asking the question”. I hadn’t realized that she was testing
me. Smart Girl!
She was one person who would never shy away
from a compliment. If you told her that she is very intelligent, she
would coolly say, “Say that again!”
When she told me her
birthday is on the 18th of December, I told her that my birthday is
also on the same date. She coolly shot back telling me that she
would have never believed me if I had been the first one to state
the date as 18th of December!
When I sent her a birthday
greeting card containing pictures of yellow roses, she asked me “How
did you come to know that I love yellow roses?” I never
knew!
I had told her once that I can always proudly say that
I and Nina Saxena share the same birthday. I think I can say that
with even more pride now.
She was one person who was very
much dedicated to her family, home and work. Her emails always used
to reflect this. She also used to show genuine concern on any issues
that were communicated to her.
When I had sent her a one-line
email – “Are you there?” This is what she replied: “ Yes, and
pretty much listening now. How have you been these past
weeks? I was struggling to meet some timelines (as you know
already). How are things there in India?
I see some travel
(conferences/summit) coming up in the next 2 months.
Do you
travel a lot too? How is work and life as such? “
When
I emailed her “ I am not fully fit…” this is what she
wrote “ Hey, hope you are feeling fine now. What did you
manage to catch there? Hope it wasn't a flu or something. In any
case, you sound like you're better now. Good thing. “
This
what she wrote on various topics:
On life “ Over here,
life is pretty much work and home too. Weekend is when we go out,
drive to another city, meet friends or simply do groceries and
cleaning. Dishes and laundry pile up in the week and so the washing
and drying machines get busy in the weekends while I vacuum and
scrub. Sounds like fun? :-)
Okay, join your wife next time in
the cleanup work; she'll love that and you will love it too (maybe
not :-)). Of course, in India none of you may be doing any cooking,
scrubbing or washing. More likely than not you have hired domestic
help to do that. Correct? “
On Munnabhai MBBS – a Hindi
Comedy “ Munnabhai MBBS is quite funny; it is great for some
light entertainment. You may even come back with that catchy song
"Subah ho gayi Mamu" ringing in your ears.
Tell me if I
predicted right :-) “
On being told that we are
considering relocation to a new place “ Wow, it must be both
exciting and scary. Relocating to a new place always is.
“
Advice regarding leasing / selling house “ True;
leasing would be a much better idea than selling if you are
uncertain. That way you'll still have your hold on the familiar
territory. Plus the housing market is only getting higher on the
price. The only thing you may need to check is whom you are leasing
it to. I wonder if the leasing stories in Bombay are similar to the
Delhi area and if Bombay has stricter rules imposed to protect the
owners. “
On “The Producers” “ Among new things
here, I saw "The producers" (the Broadway show that got the most
Tony awards yet). I would be interested in seeing "Bombay dreams"
sometime too maybe. I'm quite impressed by the equipment used to
change the numerous sets in just seconds; this one had around 15
different sets I think. There were some Broadway bigwigs from the
original cast too. Overall, it was the comedy that made it "paisa
wasool" for me.
Anyways, I'm just getting excited over a
funny show, :-) “
On what she does “ Yes, 2 things
that I do are to: (a) keep a close watch on housing market and
interest rates (thanks to which our most recent refinancing was for
an interest rate of 3.5% *only* for 3/1, that is 3 year fixed with
yearly variations afterwards) and (b) keep a close watch on the
stock market (since those variations define the actual money flow
for not only us but most senior executives here and are therefore
more interesting than salary) “
On travel and
family “ I had to travel very often as a student (particularly
because my parents are in India, I was doing my PhD in U.S. and my
husband was doing his PhD at the same time in Europe). As you can
well imagine, that meant multiple international trips in a year at
that time. After that time, my husband and I both moved to the
same city in U.S. and joined as Senior Engineers in our respective
companies. That changed the rate of personal travel and increased
the rate of official trips. Over the years, as I picked seniority, I
have slowed down a little as far as travel is concerned. In
particular, I had to avoid travel every time I was pregnant or such.
So now I try and delegate travel related work to others and mostly
work from here. “
On home and work “ In fact I have
become so lazy now that we changed all our laptops at home to
wireless (the new ones are already wireless but the older ones
needed the card). I have turned one of the upstairs rooms (ours is a
five bedroom house) to library cum study. That is where we had to
sit earlier any day when any of us felt like transcommuting (working
from home). Now it is a lot better. I can sit in one of the bedrooms
and watch TV while working or even surf the internet while cooking
in the kitchen (which is downstairs). I can fool myself into
believing that I'm actually getting more rest than
before. “
On home “ The good part about living in
India is that everyone uses domestic help. Here we cook, scrub and
clean ourselves. We share some of the work such as loading the
dishwasher, vacuuming and so on, depending on who had the most
tiring day. However, the house decor is primarily mine to play with
and also the cooking. Initially we were ambitious and used to mow
the lawns also ourselves. Now we have hired a landscaper to take
care of the those things. That freed up some weekend
time. “
Acknowledging a greeting “ Thanks Arun, and
my greetings to you too. It is wonderful to see these greetings
from you. “
Wishing Happy Birthday “ Just wanted to
wish you in advance for the b'day. :-) “
Nina Saxena was a
great person. I am sure she must have left an indelible mark on the
lives of all the people she must have interacted with. Her loss must
be a tremendous loss to her parents, husband and daughter. I hope
these tributes make them happy and proud! |
