This is my first ever post! I just hope I keep this habit of posting regularly, unlike my other endeavors and resolutions,which when I look upon now, were way to superfluous and unfeasible to implement in REAL life.
Taking the contemporary events into perspective, things are going way too bizarre. I am way too befuddled as to what my short and long term goals are going to be like. My dad wants me go ahead with my GRE preparation and apply to universities in the US.He is one those people who doesn't approve much of the corruption levels and standards of living in the country. Mom,on the other hand, wants me to settle in India taking up any decent job (plenty of which are available) in my hometown,Surat. In addition one of my best mates wants me to venture into entrepreneurship in alliance with him and I recently got an interview call from IIM-K for pgp. But my views are quite contrary to these. I don't want to go the US. I'm not a very patriotic person or anything, neither am i too influenced by the movie Swades, but i just don't feel like leaving India in the first place. Now for all those of you who argue that since I have spent majority of my life in the gulf and wouldn't face any problems migrating, my answer is that its my gut feeling doesn't approve of it and I'm too attached to my place, so the thought of leaving makes me nostalgic, especially after the three and half horrifying years I spent in Ahmedabad. Now the news about me getting a call from a premier management institution did come as a shock to many people including my parents. When i told dad I'll have to goto Mumbai for the interview, his first response was, "What??How the hell did you get the call in the first place?". Well not the kind of reaction I expected but I m just happy the efforts I put into preparing for GRE did pay off.
But too be very frank I'm still not sure as to weather I should MBA or not. In fact all goals seem ephemeral and hazy. I have prepared for GRE but i don't want to go to US. I am placed in Infosys but I'm quite certain I'm not joining that either. I hate routine jobs which rules out my application to various companies. I have my GATE after a week or so, but I'm sure I'm going to screw tha up as well, taking into view my derisory preparation for the same. All in all I'm in a major soup. I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do. I guess everyone goes through this phase in life where one is faced with this utmost critical decision to make, which decides his/her fate. Well I'm just to freakishly exhausted to be thinking any more about this topic, so just screw it.....
My new Sony Bravia 40EX710 is simply "fantabulous". When you have features sure as Internet video player, inbuilt DVD and USB, and sound system that would put many amplifiers to shame, I guess it is not apt to term it as the "idiot box" anymore. World cup is going to be so much more fun this time! I'll have to go back to A'bad for the weekend for the 1st review of my industrial training at Essar, which I assure you is no fun at all, but the experience might just add some weight to my cv. That reminds me I have as yet not started preparing for the comprehensive test scheduled on the same same. Crap!!Hell with it, I just hope GJ, my blood brother, has revised some so he can help me out.
Enough for the first post, I guess.....
Ciao
