A Picture

Just looking at the desktop wallpaper,the picture of open blue sky filled with light and greens at the corner, at this depth of night has suddenly left me with thoughts of how even a glimpse of imagination can penetrate long boundaries of reality.Now when we are leaving IITG it seems an era of freedom is over,but just as a picture of blue sky can light up a night the memories of IITG would lighten up the day.

If I just close my eyes,I see myself entering the hostel gate of dihing excited but slightly apprehensive.I can remember the view from my room's large glass window of clouded sky and green hills.Even the swampy pond cluttered with wild vegetation had its natural appeal.

Although time was flowing steadily life seemed at balance with scenario mostly peaceful with occasional turbulent periods.Days passed by just playing games , watching movie soaps etc,chit chatting idly with friends,without a speck of worry.

Now that most my friends have left the campus, I am still not able realize this as our final adieu to IITG .It is still feeling like usual end of semester and everybody would come back.

chand lamhe hi sahi jo humne guzare sath main
apne yaaroon ke sath din ya der raat main
kabhi ache kabhi bure halat main
le jayenge ye lamhe ab saugat main

Life is a void

Life is a void
A pertinent question to avoid
No matter how much you run away
It follows you night and day

One can resort to addiction
But it is nothing more than affliction
Once you look through facade
Everything seems like a useless charade

A life of meaning is an elusive dream
You follow till you lose all your steam

A Disappointed South African Fan

It is really disappointing to see south africa to struggle to win against the minnows.The defeat against bangladesh is unacceptable.

South Africa 's performance in last few matches is disenchanting. South African bowlers gave away lot of runs against australia .And even today too they squandered away lot of runs in last ten overs.

South African batting is also a cause of concern.Except smith and kallis other players are failing to provide support.South African middle order comprising of kemp,boucher,prince are not able to provide a solid partnership in the middle.

As a fan, I hope this their nadir and from now on they are going to play well and ensure a berth in the semis by winning the matches against west indies, england and new zealand.

**Also one of friend pointed out a interesting coincidence that in world cup 1999, zimbabwe after upsetting india went on to upset south africa. Similarly bangladesh after upsetting india went on to upset south africa.**

Indecision

"Ache aur bure main to koi bhi chun sakta hai.Par do ache chizon main ek ko chunna ya do buri main ek ko chunna muskil kaam hai."

A dialogue from fanaa movie is seeming to be perfect fit for my situation.Its very high time for me with job at Microsoft,hyderabad and calls from all the IIMs.But to choose between the two would be a tough task for me.It seems obvious choice to many who suggest IIM but then i am not sure whether manegerial job is suited for me.While on the other hand I am not sure whether microsoft job is going to keep me intrested for long.Giving CAT after job is an option but then I am not so sure I will be able to get through while working.(I feel this year's CAT was very much suited for me.)

Since the results of IIM are still not final,I am postponing the decision to the date till they are final.Also the trip organised by microsoft may prove helpful in decision making.

It is bit weird letting out your thoughts in open(my first blog).
