Unemployed

Yeah..finally put in my papers..and am chillaxing in my home town..
good old..banaras...
things seem to have taken a frozen stand here.... I come here and everything remains the same.....

The 'so what' attitude is always in the air of this place....seem to like it for a couple of days ..but then that's it..
its really frustrating to see the support facilities around ...

Power-cuts..something which I had almost forgotten.........are still at their nightmarish best out here.... roads ...well if at all they exist...are filled with potholes...which give one a feel of being in a car rally of sorts...

time has taken a standstill here ... and the couple of ATM's here are, at best, an aberration....

well anyway..in a week's time , I'll be at the place called 'hel'L...
but it doesn't seem to be on my mind at all for some reason....
I think as I am getting older..am getting 'Comfortably numb'

Introspection

As my final day at work comes closer, I am just wondering whether these four years of work had any real tangible effect on me, apart from the very-very tangible issue of the flab around my waist!!

So that brings me to the question, why MBA now??
Answer is ....'coz I was bored of the mediocrity surrounding me(tired of doing 'testing')...I'd nothing much to do anyways..and probably about beating old-nemesis CAT!!

It wasn't really about doing an MBA, actually I don't think I even fit the bill for an MBA type's....
still whatever I could think of is hmmm.... salary(well compared to my current employer ...anything will be better !!) but it ain't salary as I won't be able to match the dollars I could've earned from an on-site assignment here...
..am just looking for better quality of work ..(what's that by the way !)
...and it was sorta ...."He did an MBA and ....he ..he did it too...so should I"......

So what does the future beckon for me ??? Dunno to be honest .....but I'll really try to 'study at college' this time ......(the last time I did was in std V ).

Probably the only thing I've learned is that a college's name won't carry one forward in the corporate world or wherever for that matter ...its really what you do will......

Okay.... a little about me

Me a confused soul .. currently jobless (hence blogging) and will be literally in another 11 days exactly...and this is by choice (or is it ??)

Okay..no more riddles ....me goin' for an MBA after nearly four years of donkey-work ..(hey that's a -ve attitude ....yes so what ???)

First time in my life ..I've started to feel a bit old ....after looking at the kids who'll be my batchmates at (hel)L ..(even my ~20 odd grey hair didn't make me realize this) ...

I'm scared and excited....pretty much at the same time...
scared ....well have never been good at acads.....actually terrible.....
excited ...after all its college life for the next two years yaar......even if its (hel)L!!

My first publication--excited!!

Yeah...its funny..but I'm really excited about me posting on my sorta-kinda own space on the web.... more later..lemme see how the page looks like first!!
