Reflections...

As my college days are nearing its fag end, I have started to feel the same old feeling of dread I had when I was in 12th. How, What, Where? The questions are raging inside my cranium!
Iam not placed anywhere, thanks to my appalling academics.

Why can't people understand this basic thing ?
Marks don't reflect a persons ability or his knowledge. I can shamelessly boast that I know my stuff much much better than most of my fellow compatriots. But for what? People say this all the time "Man, somethings big is kept for you. Something to which you are worthy!".
Hmmm. Seems too good to be true.

Don't get me wrong, Iam not in the least bit disturbed that I have'nt been placed. I am pretty sure that I will suffer in a any of these Indian IT majors. No real opportunity for your creativity to flow through and pretty hard work. Traditionally I don't really get on with the latter.
Next route: MBA ofcourse! Two months to go and have'nt started any kind of preparation.
Mock CATS are a real mockery for me. Ranks don't sink much low thanks to my verbal ability and fast reading, but an elite B-School??? Chanceless you hopeless!!!
Besides, I got no chance of getting a bank loan on top of one already I have without the Titan Muscles of a good B-School.

SO what am I planning to do???
In a year facing the world, burdened with hopes of my parents (and a big loan) and absolutely no plans???

My life has been a series of incertainities. Even doctors were uncertain to do a scissorian to get me out of the womb (They finally did!) So I hope something good will happen uncertainly!

  3. Marks mean little if the method via which one is tested does not fully discover one potential to apply that which is studied in an intelligent manner.

The End...

This is the final post in this blog. Nearly five years ago, I started this blog from an Internet Cafe. 5 years on, the blog has probably chronicled my state of being. The triumphs, losses, disappointments et al. All this while, I have been experimenting with lot of things and even tried to switch the blog multiple times. This time the switch is for real. I want a fresh start without the baggage. You could even say I am a little inspired by Up in the Air. I don't really have an ETA for a new blog. I could start posting today, tomorrow, or never. Go to: Idle thoughts and update your references. See you out there! Signing off with these words from Jim Morrison: This is the end Beautiful friend This is the end My only friend, the end Of our elaborate plans, the end Of everything that stands, the end No safety or surprise, the end I'll never look into your eyes...again Can you picture what will be So limitless and free Desperately in need...of some...stranger's...

Ancient Thrills

Ancient civilization. Dig. Gun. Artifact. Conspiracy. Esoterica. Professor. Prospective authors please note, you will get atleast one buyer for your book if these key words are there on your book cover. It would also help if you get someone to give comments like "Stunning!", "Tour De Force!" etc. I am such a sucker! My book collection has grown because of a few books I bought specifically due to these keywords. A small list which could well be incomplete: The Temple by Mathew Reilly Cover of Temple Peru. Inca. Idol. Guns. Pretty decent. Good read on a lonely day. Seven Ancient Wonders by Mathew Reilly Decent book. Lots of traps and thrills. Moments like the discovery of the Hanging Gardens are really good. Six Sacred Stones by Mathew Reilly Sequel to the above book. Same old stuff. The ending is a cliff hanger though. The Last Testament by Sam Bourne Cover of The Last Testament Palestine. Israel. Biblical artifact. Middle east solution. Peace talks. Okay okay book. ...
