first things first... HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!...
next come the usual apologies and promises to be regular... and finally the update..
had a crazy 4 months.. my sister had a baby who's such an absolute sweetheart.. i was in the city of joy for 3 days and i hardly slept at all... some wedding that i wouldn't have minded giving a miss to but some things u just have to do.. spent an amazing week with friends in goa for new year's eve.. all we did was sit and drink beer and party.. was absolutely heavenly.. got called by infosys to do my final semester project and training at their mysore campus due to begin in a week.. attended classes during the december holidays because apparently college doesn't feel that we can miss classes just because infy had a whim.. im off to mysore this weekend to start work from 19th.. its going to be a busy 4 months.. saturdays are going to be working which quite obviously sucks!!.. shopped a lot under the pretence of not having enough business formals.. tried weed in goa.. didn't quite give me the high that i expected.. but i just wanted to try it once in my life so thats done.. gave CAT without studying at all even though nobody really believes it.. got a 96 percentile god knows how.. i remember drinking a lot the night before CAT and not wanting to get up on the day to actually go and give it.. managed to drag my ass out of bed and sit through the entire exam.. shocked a lot of people and even myself when the result came.. was too lazy to actually fill up any of the forms so just happened to fill IMT.. still have no idea what i want to do in life.. some things never change!!!...
not really looking forward to the work stint at infy.. dont want to slog my ass off 6 days a week from 8.30-5.45.. going to miss my best friend's 21st birthday because im going to be in mysore.. why didn't they recruit biotech personnel as well!!.. going to be spending my 21st birthday without any of my real friends (unless they surprise me!!).. will miss out on the very last semester of college.. and all this for a lousy 1000 bucks a month as stipend and food coupons worth 3000... misers!!!... but somewhere down the line with the usual bullshit about "once in a lifetime opportunity", "getting out of my comfort zone", "experiencing the corporate world", "getting away from all things wrong in life" i gave in.. hopefully it wont be as bad as im making it out to be..
Que sera sera, whatever will be, will be!!!..
Amen.

hmm, i like the fact how you summarized up everythin in just a post. I can never do that. Anywyas, all the best for the work ex with Infosys. You should be glad to have such an offer in these times.
Take Care.
hehe lol, if i were in india, i would have replied nevertheless. i am just like you - no preparations until some few hours left for the exam. And, anyways when you replied on my blog which was written ages back, I knew you have just updated your blog cuz whenever a blogger updates his/her blog, he/she generally comments on other posts..lol :P
all the best for tomorrow's exam. People like us are destined to crack no matter what :)

hmmm... so wat have we here? yr advocating drinking before exams? well, it might just be a real stimulant.. im sure not many people have tried it before... :)
and yeah, congrats nevertheless on the CAT score in th circumstances.. i guess it just adds to th misery of having to 'do justice to yr bilities'...
and yeah, it does sck working 6 days.. but if u need to get a cheque every month, theres no other option.. so better gear up to enjoying it!
Nice post and a good score considering u are still in engineering college and had to manage regular studies alongwith CAT prep...u knw wherever u work, u will have slog ur ass 5 or 6 days a week, n Infy is a good option considering the brand name,however rembr wherever u work,give importance to the quality of work n not the brand name...i.e dont join a co who will pay good sal n then bench u...no point at all..
Also personally I think MBA should be done after at least of 2-3 yrs of work ex.....I don't see much sense doing right after college, u won't learn much...again just a personal experience...
All the very best and a very happy and rocking new year
hey, finally some update! :P
all the best for your work in infy!
and congrats on CAT score.. lol i don't think i would never manage to get that after drinking so much :P
anyway good luck.. pls keep posting! tc

I found you on google while I was searching for "love sucks" images. I started to read some entries and I like your thoughts. You and I are a little bit alike... Keep up with the blogging! I would like to read some more of what you think about love and other things. You're welcome if you wanna read mine, the only thing is that I write in spanish sometimes :) Well, take care!
