Finally the change is here. When I keep seeing Facebook settings and layout being changed over a period of time , I was wondering why no one takes interest in the Blogging world to enable us to do some quick easy editing of template and not work on the basics of HTML to get things straight. So first applause to blogger team in getting the new template modifications.Mine is no more the old black template, I have given it a new look altogether.I dont think that is enough if my posts still take a long time to show up.
I am still waiting for my VTU results, hopefully good this time. Meanwhile there is good news, I have decided to go ahead and complete my masters instead of joining work right away.So yes, I have another two more years of college life.Just that this time there is a lot of change,its in UPES Dehradun.
Maybe once I get my ass there, I will have so much more to say on a daily basis.Wait did I say daily basis?! Nah.I'll be posting very often,more like on a weekly basis.I will try and include as many pics as possible.I still lack a damn camera! I keep having dreams of the Canon EOS1000D, that again is such a recurring dream and I am not getting any close to owning one.I will try and manage pics with my phone camera os slightly better Point and shoot Sony Cybershot which my parents use for family outings and occasions.I dont know if I'll get to keep it, I will request and see if it can be granted.
Until my next post,
Cheers!

With a hope..
Life's pretty bizzare.For most part of the day I am so jobless with just the project work to complete.Still undecided about what I want, if my BE degree will do me good in the coming years.If an Mtech I want to pursue will help me realise the worth someday.I dont know if I am willing to work or I rather go for higher studies.I know that I want to stick in India,which I am very sure off.I wouldnt mind doing my higher studies abroad but that again comes with quite a few complications starting with finances.I am not very keen on taking a loan of say 20 odd lacs and go abroad just to return a few years later with maybe a good enough job.Then again a few more years will go in repaying the huge amount plus the interest.Why start life with a liability? I am happy if I can manage a post graduate degree by spending only a percentage of what I would have to if I decide to go abroad.
End of the day I am just travelling in a path guided by dad and well wishers with a hope that soon I will be able to decide what I actually want from life.Is it just another rat race to reach a particular salary mark?! Will at the end of the day I be happy with my job or will I just end up being happy with the salary?! There's always this parallel dream of having the good things in life,maybe some added luxury somwhere in the form of a good car,house,etc.No wonder these elders say that first you get all the degree's you can and then start off with your job.Few years down the lane when you get sick and tired you might want to do something else.Maybe just travel around or develop a hobby that eventually turns out to be your passion.
I'll take an example of a friend I know from college,he was my senior.All he wanted to do was talk and then his passion for rock music.Not academically very brilliant but still the other day I saw his pics and his effort that has gone into bringing Lamb of God to Bangalore! Thats passion.I dont know if his work is related to advertising and media but I know he is happy at the end of the day.How many of us actually do what we want than just the usual path taken like Engineering,Medicine,CA's,etc. I cant think of too many options but I am sure you are getting what I am trying to tell.
I thought the movie '3 Idiots' was totally apt for our generation where the race is always to become an engineer and then earn big bucks.I dont think its still earning luxury or living large at the end of the day, its just being safe.You know if you have that tag of a BE you will get job eventually and it will benefit you somewhere someday.
In a hope that I will figure out the way I want life to be in the coming years...

End of an Era..
Finally I am done with engineering,well almost I can say.I have my project evaluation on the 14th,after that I am done with the undergraduate course atleast.Whats going to happen next?! I have no clue absolutely.Something should come through which once again I am unaware of it as I dont make any decisions.
Right now I am just concentrating on how best I can while away time and relax.My dreams of a camera/car are totally shattered for obvious reasons.This time too I am not willing to give my driving test.What do I give it for!? I might as well give it when I can buy a car on my own.
I am actually mad bout a lot of things! Anyways I'll stick to a promise I made to myself from now on.
Until the next post,
