This post is mainly for all the engineers out there, actually anyone who has been to a school/college will identify.
I am sure most of you, must have watched the movie "3 idiots". So here is the part that I could not digest - the character played by Aamir Khan ( Rancho??) topping the class!! Impossible!! With the kind of education system that we have, which encourages rote learning it should have been the famous Chatur Ramalingam all the way!!!! I mean I do appreciate the line of thinking in the movie, but its far from reality...don't you think ?? Well I know most of the Hindi movies are that way...but still!!!
The rest of the movie was quite good though, except the last 10 mins I suppose, where the delivery with the help of a vacuum cleaner was a bit too much again. "Hindi movies" as they say!:D

I am still an optimist!
As you all might have known by now, 2009 was a hellish year for me. Everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. Take my job for starters. Things went horribly out of hand. My career right now, is sooooo off track. I have no clue where I am heading to.
And whats with this human nature, I ask. Oh! someone please tell me! Tell me why is that when I want to be happy for my friends (who have hit jackpots in their professional lives) I feel this tinge (more than a mere tinge actually) of sadness. Am I jealous? That is the last thing I want to be!
I come across these inspirational articles in the paper/magazines every now and then. They talk about being postive and basically bring in positiviy in everything around you. Will someone please give me a practical demo? I mean how do you do it ? and how much can you do it? There is a limit to everything I suppose.
As I said earlier "Everything that could go wrong....". Well that "Everything" includes my health also. I fell very very ill. Pretty bad I must say. I am back to normal now (hopefully) after months of painful suffering. The worst part of it was to see people close to me having a hard time, all thanks to me!
I wonder, if I can now safely say that all that happened was a thing of the past. But anyway, taking a cue from those above mentioned articles I do want to believe that every dark cloud does have a silver lining. So right now I am just waiting for my stars to align and a miracle to happen. The miracle I am talking about is getting into my dream job! Now is it too much of positivity to bring in? ( or is it just wishful thinking??) I am an optimist after all!!

Happy New Year!
A very Happy New Year to all my readers ! May this year bring you everything that you have wished for :D
I was quite busy, the past few days. New years was fun. Relatives had come over and we all had a nice family lunch together. Called up a few old friends. Reconnected with college friends. College life feels like a thing from the ancient past! So much has happened in between...and soooooooooo much happened to me last year :|
2009 will definitely not go down as one of the great years in my life. But yes...as they all say..I have indeed, learnt a lot more from this single year than all the other years of my life put together.
I do not have any new year resolutions for 2010 as such..but yea..I do want to write more. Did you guys make any resolutions this year? Let me know. Will be back soon :)
