Whats life all about?

This is the time of my life when allocations have to happen. I will get my geo and like all i am also excited about whats going to be mine. In the process of geos, suddenly i was told of an opportunity and i was interviewed for the same, things went fine and to an extent i was ok given that reporting and work was structured, and there was a lot to learn. But then this was opportunity created by time, i was keen to introspect why was i replacing an MBA who has worked hard for two years and has been phenomenol in earning a 100 Million dollar deal. I wanted to know and i wanted to talk, so i just went ahead. As life will have it, there was this world which was falling apart, and somewhere the job, central London and 2 years of work just did not make sense. After listening to her story, i was speechless for sometime. I just knew that hats off to the lady and i also knew that sometimes everything in life just looks small. One of the days in my life when i just knew that i am human and any opportunity which time creates might not make me happy unless it keeps all in that time space happy. Suddenly i dont want to replace her. Its her fort, she has built it, i want time and life to give her the due. I was left thinking, why does life test us and test us so badly at times. People say business runs, decisions happen, but then in the end everything else will go away, what will remain is the spirit of being there when you are needed the most. I dont know about the geo and i dont care, but I made a very good friend today and i am sure we will remain friends for rest of my life. As it is in all my work life, i have earned friends, everything else comes in CV which will stop making a difference some day in my life.
So Friend!! Cheers to life and i am sure you will just pass this test of life as you passed IIMs and many more. :)

My Dream is to fly, over the rainbow so high!! :)

So, i cleared the much dreaded internal certi, SIGH!! I cant even tell how much i hate studying what i dont want to study, but i just manage things somehow. I was happy and as i walked out of the exam hall, i just got nostalgic. At ISB, it was common for us to slog for 20 hours, but every slogging was celebrated with a dance party, was it missing from my life? It was a week day, if i suggest the same, the idea will be dropped even before it takes off, but then i want to go dancing. Thats one thing i love in life, ok, this is bangalore and not ISB, so may be you dont have an option to dance till wee hours in morning , may be they dont even have the dance floor as big as that of ISB, the DJ and the lovely people. With a very sad mind, i thought i will probably manage with my aerobics class, but thats not enough, i love everything about my class, but its not dancing. I miss the loud music, large group, arbit steps and dancing till feet hurt.
There is one song which i will always think of when i will think of dance party at ISB, almost everyone enjoyed the emotions and ambitions involved in "My dream is to fly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43zQ7A13DGQ&feature=related" and it was a part of every party. Till date the song just fills the energy and spirit to be ISBian and crack the world. Usually i move on in life, but some days in life just pull me back towards the last one year. I love you ISB and i miss you so much at times. You just taught me to live life to its fullest, that sometimes i just see the vanity in being out of you. :(

Fever or Favour!

So, this week i was down with fever. For a change i just decided to give myself some rest and peace of mind and give my body the much needed rest. I realized how much rest deprived i was. The medicines induced me to sleep and no sun and dust just made things good for me. After three days when i saw myself in mirror, finally i felt that the color of my skin which had like gone 5 shades darker owing to my travel and no sleep was back. I felt happy as i watched andaz apna apna and all sort of comedy movies and i think it showed on me too. Best was when i met a friend of mine and she said, you always look better after you have cried or fallen ill, i think its just about doing what you want to do at times :D. Anyway, while everything else has improved, i feel very weak, weak enough to avoid walking long distance and i dont know how will this go. I guess i will have to eat domino's pizza to cover up for this. Yippeie!! God! Was it fever or Favor?? ;)
