My first earning

2nd of July.....i came to Bangalore for my Project......Since then.... Not a day passed without talking about the stipend..... We(14 of us doing project in various companies) all started making a lot of plans for the First stipend....
Some were interested in getting something for them......while some guys...planned for some nice trip.....and a few more plans by others ....... well...i thought i 'll get something for my parents.....and...then.....something for my close friends....back home.....

4th of Aug.....i was quite busy with some assignment that i was given the previous week ( as usual.....was late for the submission)..... The day was very dry ...It wasn't eventful.....Everything was perfectly normal.....The only unusual thing...that i noticed since morning was......it didnt rain!!! ..... The post lunch session was even more dull....with my keyboard serving as the pillow(occasionally or rather i 'll put it as often...).....i had a phone call from my project mate at around 4.......It wasn't unusual.......Project mates usually call me...and....we talk about some interesting things like...where to shop....for Music CD's....about the movie for the weekend......but this call was very different....i was in for a surprise....i was told that..... our stipend had been increased by five thousand!!! Though there were some rumours about this increase ....i never believed it.....when it happened...it was quite a big surprise for me!!!

I collected my cheque from the finance department......it was a very different feel....the first salary...the first money that u earned.......surely ...its a really different feel....The word RESPONSIBILITY suddenly seemed to make more sense to me....than it usually made..... i myself felt as though i had grown mature all of a sudden in one month!!! Watever it is... i clearly enjoyed that day!!!

Confused!!!

The habit of blogging was long forgotten by me.....now that..i get more leisure time.....i thought may be i should start blogging again.......( well...i dont mean to say that..i was busy earlier).....

It's a really different feel altogether......the change from the college life to the corporate life(At present,i'm doin' my project in SUN Microsystems, Bangalore) ... .... well.....its really different.....it was really a carefree life in the college(Doing my Bachelor's in BITS,Pilani)....with no one to question ......watever i do.......doesn't mean that..i have been questioned by someone here....juz that....responsiblity gets added on its own......

Though ...i did some serious reading for the past one month ....this week..i'm finding a lot of time....I was browsing through some sites .....trying hard to find a solution to my confusion.....whether i should try GRE or stay here and do my GATE.... though many people opt for GRE ....

i 'm not sure......i dont want to go out to U.S and juz be one in a thousand..... when i'm pretty comfortable with India(doesn't mean that....i have been to US) .... but ...then.....i hear a lot of people asking me to do GRE ...instead..... the most pressing thing is no one is planning to come down to India after finishing their Masters....of course...i dont blame them for that........Financially ,they have been forced to stay there and get the money ,they spent, back....well..i leave it to FATE to decide my destiny!!!(may be i'm playing safe ...so that i dont have to take the blame for my action!!!...but...its a very natural attitude.....isin't it??)
