Waiting for ONE STEP UP

LONG time.....and no work.....!!! actually long time ..no post...as I was engaged and m still engaged and hope to be engaged till 10th of july in compiling my project report....(dont panic....I wont post it here!) :) But due to the increasing demands of my "readers" to write more :) and the numorous comments(only 1...n thank you didibhai for that) m BACK! Today was "THE END" of my vacation and my college reopens 2morrow...good that God decided to pull brakes on the unbearable heat atleast for now.

Well, though m not excited about the same ol "9:30 to 5:30" routine starting from tomorrow but still am discovering a new joy in it. Not jus coz college is now synonymous with "dating place" for me...and not jus coz am gonna meet my colleges fellas after a break of 3 months....and certainly not coz I missed my studies. My joy is partially contributed by the fact that now I realize that I stand at a juncture where I only have 1 academic year left in my career; Ya if all goes well(our economy recovers from the dreadful slowdown it experienced in recent past) and if God doesnt have any more surprises/upsets in store for me....then the "padhai" phase will be over for me once and for all......The phase started when I was a small kid of 4 yrs old...and after studying in a long list of schools and two colleges(under and post graduate)....in addition to hours of private tution....and not to forget tiring spells of studies at home....with brickbats from maa....(and got literally numerous "pitai"s and scoldings for my lack of seriousness and sincerity and concentration and dedication etc etc etc for my studies)

Flashback-
Maa- Tut........., porooooooo.....porooooooooooooo....poray faki marbe naa.......Maa, thanks for those coz without those I wouldnt even have reached this position...I miss your "poro" shouts now, seriously!!

......I am GLAD that the long phase is gonna be over soon!!!!

The another aspect of my new found joy is the realisation that the end of one phase marks the begining of the second phase.The second phase which is supposed to reap the benefits of the seeds sown in the first. This is the phase where for the first time in my not so long life, I will be earning moolahs and not spending 'em. Well, just not that.....its about entering a totally new arena...where there is professionalism, performance, motivation, reward, politics, teamwork, leadership...and offcourse competitiveness. Its a phase where I will get to understand where I stand in the crowd of 1.17 billion(as of july 2009) people.....It is where I get to know my worth....n where there is new challenge and opportunity hidden at each stride....and it is the phase which will enable me to prepare for the next big leap....the 3rd phase of my life.......and well, it is how the chapters of the phase unfolds, that will decide whether I will be able to materialise all my dreams or not. Sorry for being poetic, but cant help coz the excitement of earning on my own, standing on my feet, gifting my maa and baba with my first salary, and of being considered as a responsible man(it is widely believed that only when a boy starts earning he becomes "reponsible" and suddenly he is not a lil boy anymore). Waiting for all that......but its said man proposes, God disposes! The almighty is the one who will decide that my face will be :) or :( after the passage of one year........till then looking forward to one last year of my "padhai" phase !!!!!

n ya......dont forget to pray for me....coz you all know that my face dont look good when its like :(
