abt me

when many of ur friends write so many good things abt u in their testi, u start to ask urself " wow m i really that good". infact, the flattering thing is that some of the qualities that my friends wrote abt me are even unknown to me. one of the reason maybe because we are so much interested in knowing abt the good and bad things of others that we unintentionally fail to think abt ourself. for instance, in 2 out of my 3 interviews ( i failed in all 3), i had been asked this question "tell me abt urself", which should be the easiest question that any interviewer is ever going to ask, after all if we don't abt ourself who else will. ironically, this question came out to be the toughest of all for some of us, i had to ask to some of my friends who had already being asked this question in their interviews abt how to approach this question. while some suggested me to tell little bit abt my family background and hobbies, others suggested me not to mention abt my family background and instead say that "i am innovating person, i like to learn new things in new environment etc etc........ ...." ultimately, it was for me to decide what to say when i am asked "tell me abt urself". what i wanted to say from the above incident is that sometimes knowing abt urself can be one of the most confusing question of our life. ofcouse the question is meaningless for guys who seriously think and know abt themselves.

i want to thank all my friends who have written testi for me, guys thank you and thank you for seeing good things in me.

in my next article, i will write abt what i think abt myself.....

right now....

its being long time since i wrote my last blog. reason, i didnt feel like writing, to be honest i didnt have the motivation to write any more because of my placement situation, almost all my friends are placed and i am among the last few to be placed yet. i thought i would continue with my writing soon after i get placed. well, now i honestly dont see that happening anywhere. i have cried over it and tried to find someone to blame for my situation. at the end i could hardly find anyone but myself to blame for the situation.now, i came to conclusion that if i continue to cry and blame myself and just hope everything is going to be fine without any effort from my myside, the situation is not just going to be wrost but also m going to further hurt my future too. the moral of the story "enjoy ur life- when one door closes , another door opens up so keep trying, every dog has his day".

i have always fantasized abt what to do in my final sem at iitg. i used to say myself that i will do that, i will do this in my final sem. well its already 20 days in final sem and i have done none of those things that i fantasied about. the reason, all those dreams were dreamed holding into account that i would get job before the start of my final sem. now the question is that "should i stop enjoying my final sem just because i havent got job yet?" or "should i enjoy it anyway ?". its very easy to chose the later because it sounds optimistic and that's what heroes do in movies anyway. now if i look my life 10 years from now, i definitely see myself still doing what i want to do. from that time frame, if i reflect back my life today and find out that i did intentionally made my life a hell, well definitely i would regret. that's not something that i would like to see myself from that time frame, so thats the reason, i am going to chose what the desi or bedesi heroes in movies would have done i.e enjoy my life in way that i have always dreamed of..................
