DAY 36 (Do I really have a choice..??)


I hope some psychiatrist reads this post and give me some clue about the puzzle. To start with it...let me check if you know that I am a total "JUST DOING NOTHING" persona from the past 8 months. Why? Because I completed my engineering in June last year and since then I am waiting for my joining from TCS or Wipro. 
Why have I not done anything else?? Ummmm...Thats a different issue and long story so keep that thing aside.


So,apart from cursing recession and begging for work,all I have done all those days was to find something time-taking or involving to do. But alas...still left empty-handed!!! Rare were those days....if I got lucky. And then the lapse to celebrate the next fortune needed so much patience. 

But then...a few days ago something caught my notice. My best friend Akansha asked me to do something for her that actually was a part of my writing hobby but just on a professional level. I just tried and postpone as much as I could. Actually I very conveniently forgot about "THE RAREST OPPORTUNITY" as well.

And then yesterday....being scolded by her...I promised to get it done by the end of the day but you know what...I am still not done!

My point of human psychology here is that....despite being a beggar for work ... desperate to have something to do... I still manage and then afford to have choices!!! And that makes me so puzzled. It happens so many times. We claim of just getting something or rather anything in a category and then we sub-categorise it. Is it fair?

Well...tell me if you have something to say....
By then....I really have to get done with the assigned task...otherwise you know na..."I'LL BE DEAD!!!"

    Hmm.human behavior is cyclical.we keep on repeating what we do and yeah what we feel comfortable doing..even that means sitting idle and watching T.V
    I think its time you become proactive and start doing things different from daily routine.that way..the days end..you feel like..you had done something with a new energy.
    keep that momentum going.

    Getting into corporates is one thing..till that time..dom something.may be.you would find the 'rarest of opportunity' in these idle times and that culd change your life for ever!

    WOW!
    Nice work I must say.
    Its the thing called choice that separates us from other species. We can chose between right and wrong by our own perceptions. Thats wat makes us humans...:)
    Don't miss those RARE OPPORTUNITIES.
    I know some seniors who were placed with TCS and they are just doing nothing. Atleast you have kept the momentum and You are going good.
    And after all we always have a CHOICE. This applies to me also...:)
    A good question asked and a bad answer given by me.
    *sob sob*
    Wish i had a choice..

    Cheers

    Nuts

    p.s. You can pass on the work to me also if its about getting paid...:P

    When you are young and going Supriya.. Choices may not mean much. But from where I am standing.. I know I have made good choices and I have made bad choices... The good choices have at times gone wrong and bad choices have brought good results. So actually the bad choices were not totally bad and the good choices were not totally good. If you are not yet confuzzled (confused and puzzled at the same time) then you are great!

DAY 321 (Bring the change!)

 If you are a mother and if you keep cribbing about societal issues and the way kids have been brought up in our generation, keep reading. Well, every generation have their own issues and we all progress in a way or another. But even after generations of changes there is one common issue which is discussed in all forums (professional and personal/ formal and informal/ planned and unplanned) is patriarchy.  I am not one of those feminist who advocate for the world to turn into a matriarch to take revenge on the oppression generations of women have been facing. I honestly vote for equality. And I think most of us do. However, what do we actually do to bring that change?  Apart from discussing and being profound at the takeaways, I don’t think there is any progressive step that we actually take. I do feel that to take the step it does not have to be groundbreaking. Everything starts at home and so this solution starts at home too.  Most of the time, we start discussing ...

DAY 91 (Yukkkk..!!!)

Another GODFATHER for guys is out now....and yes I am talking about LSD (Love Sex and Dhoka) ! Standing ovation for Miss Ekta Kapoor who chose to leap from the head to toe covered Saas and bahus to directly all nude perverts...!!  I have seen guys being so curious for this movie probably because its been a long time after DEV D for them to watch something "meaningful" like this. I find you tube links of the promos and the special songs of the movie in their social networking site's status and they are just so proud of that. I am ...and I am sure every girl is amazed with the criteria of their meaningfulness! Either everything yukkkyyyy is just their type or they have not been keen to explore any other thing in the world than this! I am sick and tired of the caller tunes which I get to hear now whenever I call up any one of them and then I just do not want to talk any further after that. I believe learning Biology compulsorily till class 10th atleast has given only t...

DAY 105 (When life is awesome...!!)

As I was about to join a job...people told me..that you are gonna lose all your independence and happiness now....cutting off the social network by default...and then you'll realize...what a mess it is and what golden days those 10 "doing-nothing" months were! I used to just shrug it off...because I do not like to predict like everyone else. And now...most of them have got the answers. I have never been happier than this. I do all I missed to do ever...all I loved to do ever...with my grey cells working in parallel as well which is like a perk! Playing table tennis,an urge to learn guitar or atleast try to do so was like few of the things I could never carry on with...due to zillions of factors. But where there is a will...there is a way! I got all I desired packed up in the most beautiful and satisfactory environment ever. What else could I ask for? I have met like some of the most interesting and loveliest people ever (I know...that in professional life...everyon...
