New Year version 2007 beta

An year with a guarantee that my life will not be the same anymore.
An year which will define my course of life.
An year which will decide where I can be found 10 years down the line.
Welcome 2007....let's rock together.
But first of let's spare few moments to bid farewell to your younger sibling.... 2006 A.D.
An year which had started with a hope of getting an internship abroad...but nevermind.
An year which gave me my first 9 pointer.... thank you.
An year which gave me an internship where I learnt a lot.
An year which found me a long lost friend.... love you for that.
An year which unearthed the creative side of mine.
An year which showered me with honest and very nice compliments from even unknown quarters.
An year which strengthened some bonds beyond any fatigue whatsoever....I'll be indebted to you forever for that.
An year which made me understand myself a bit more than ever.
An year which ended with a promise to lead me to MY HORIZON.
An year which was .... Pretty Good...to say the least.
Good bye 2006... it was nice being with you.... will miss you throughout my life....love you.
Me and my wingies are bidding you farewell with a candle-light err....daaru-party(drinks) :D
....don't worry folks... I won't drink.
----------------------------------
I know it's cliched...but nevertheless....a tradition...so....
MAY THIS YEAR BRING WITH IT A LOT MORE THAN THE HAPPINESS,SUCCESS AND PROSPERITY THAT YOU WISH FOR :)

[BTW the 'beta' in the title is 'coz this new year will be 'Happy' in real sense when I'll get a job.]

Good Morniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnngggggggg Blogeteria.
Aaj ki sabse badi khabar ye hai ki....yours truly DAROGA is BACK!!!!(the bang will follow soon)
"chaar haar se ghabra kar ladna chhor dena, (quitting the fight after four defeats)
raat lambi hui to subah ki aas chhor dena, (losing the hope of morning after a slightly long night)
manzil na dikhe to chalna hi chhor dena,(dis-continuing the journey if the destination isn't in sight)

Game on

Which is worse:
Not getting shortlisted for any job interview which makes you feel that you are good for nothing or getting rejected after the final round which makes you feel that you are not good enough.

Which is better:
Not getting shortlisted for a job interview which may mean that something better is in store for you or making to the final rounds and missing by a whisker which means that its just a matter of one extra step.

Well..... I am still to be shortlisted. I don't want to say anything else. I am definitely not happy. I am sad but in no way in a bad state of mind. I don't know why am I feeling low when Job is the last thing I want to do. Perhaps 'coz of the ever-active question: "What if?".
Yesterday we had fixed ourselves in front of the company's room hoping to get shortlisted. Some did make the list. The rest..... refused to move their butts. They tried.... and tried...and tried.... to have them take a second look at their curriculum vitae. It was Begging 'Corporatised' with the rags being replaced by proper formals, the begging bowls making way for the executive folders and the deplorable and pitiable facial expressions turning into plastic smile and artificial energy.
I couldn't go to them and talk like that. If a company feels that inspite of being from a related department, having a good Cumulative Grade Point Average, having held 5 different positions of responsibilities during my stay at Kharagpur, being actively involved in dramatics, choreography, antakshari, amateur movie-making, having won prizes at IIT and IIM, I still am not suitable for them.....then I would respect their decision. I have to wait and wait will I.
But there's one fact: I HATE REJECTIONS. period.
....................................
"Mom..... next time Job le k aayenge" (Mom...next time I'll return with a job")
...........
"Beta.... naukri le k jaldi aao" ( Son.... come soon with a job")
.....................................
Yesterday .....
A part of my vision was searching for the horizon.
A part of my heart wanted to break down.
A part of me wanted to hold on to someone.
Yesterday I felt an absence.
.......................................
Any way.... it's a new day. I heard that the 'good news' has left for its destination. It's just a matter of time. BTW there's a break in the placements now and will resume on 26th december.

I want to dance. Anyone wanna join me??

Un-Placed !!!

9 days and 2 more rejections later, I am back .... Still hopeful…. and most importantly…. Alive. No no….. I don’t possess suicidal tendency whatsoever…. so please get rid of any thought of that sort (if it came to your mind). I am at ease because job is the worst case scenario for me. But still … I want to get shortlisted at least ( and get a job at most :D ) in the first 5 days…. Izzat ka sawaal hai yaar !!!
Placements start from tomorrow (5th dec). 3 days….. and some of us will get their dream jobs. The rest ….. will recall phrases like :
“Ummeed par to duniya kaayam hai…lets not lose hope”
“Jo hota hai … achhe ke liye hota hai ….. lets have patience”
“Samay se pehle aur kismet se zada kisi ko nahin milta….. lets wait”
My first hope is on 10th (I am still to be shortlisted for that)…. and I believe in each of the above phrases.
Never lose Hope.
Have patience.
and…..
Wait for the good news. :)
Till then…..
