The clock is ticking

Firstly..it's too long since my last post..all those (yes..all of you two :)) who have been waiting for a post, here I present it. There are reasons though, for being away for such a long time.(5 days after the exams!). This is a period where I am still to figure out how to continue with my life. Last few months have not been those happy moments of the end of college life that I expected.(from which I learnt:Do NOT 'expect' anything!). And even in the last few days, I couldn't think of anything I would like to share with you. My brain has just gone blank. I sit down with a pen, and the poems which were overflowing once have disappeared into the air. Don't know why...

Of course, one of the reasons may be the vcn (yes my vacation is now compressed-bad joke no!!). Just 20 days and so much to do - sleep,sleep,sleep,stare,think on a non-topic,watch TV, watch the world cup from all camera angles,etc,etcetera,et al,and so on. Besides all this, I also thought of utilizing this vacation for some 'contructive' work, put my technical skills to use (as I mentioned in my earlier post, my project is still 'incomplete'), bring out some thought provoking ideas into my blog, some good verses, and spare some time for a self-appraisal exercise. Oh! Forgot to mention hanging out with friends(though I do that very rarely!!) and chit-chatting at relatives' place. I wanted to devote some time for my new-found interest in books(and surprisingly I have succeeded in starting one) and continue with my pursuit of following the happenings in the IT industry (specifically, the internet). To add to all this, my employer wants me to 'be acquainted with UNIX'(which I have worked with for only 2 months or so) before I join the training. Having realised earlier that I would 'fit in' well in the management environment (and also being disappointed with no calls for M.Tech!) and pledging to work full-fledged in the vacation towards that target, now I find even that option shoved for the next year.

With the result, I still am not able to sort the above list and am working on whichever I think of, at that instant.(And 'the instant' for this post came only today!)...Hope I complete atleast 75% of the above list in the coming days, so that I am more relaxed and satisfied (with myself) in Bhubaneswar(btw, I am off to Bhub on 22nd for my training)...The clock is ticking. . . . .

Try an adventure trek!
Yes, Dhoomketu adventure tours is the answer to your maladies! Nothing like a trek among the birds and the bees to get you all rejuvenated for life. Call 25911056 for more information.

Hope that sounded like an Ad...
HEHE...well, "Dhoomketu" organised flying fox and rappelling at Praxis. They take people on 2-day treks into Karjat, which I am sure is just in your backyard - approximately.
Seriously, you might wanna try it out.
