Master of Science

Mom I love you, this would not have been possible without you.

With all honesty I put forward in pictures my two most cherished possessions, and I think they will stay the most cherished for the rest of my life.

That cap

The Degree

From here on whatever good happens to my life will in some way depend on these two. It feels like I am bragging too much but WTH I have bled for three years for these bragging rights. Not that I bought my Undergrad degree but it certainly feels a joke when compared to the Graduate School. The last three years have been a journey of transforming myself from being a no-ne to being a someone. When I was giving job interviews in college almost anybody could rip me apart with fundamentals only and that is when I promised myself Graduate school is going to be totally different. Three years later I can claim that every interview I have given has been a battle where I have fought like a Gladiator, I have lost quite a lot of them but with respect and dignity. I may not be the best thinker and problem solver but I have earned my degree to every grade I have got and not just walked through it. Apart from academic and technical knowledge MS has taught me a lot of life lessons as well which will stay with me forever even though I might forget propositional calculus. As an example I got an A which i totally did not deserve and I also got a B which again I totally did not deserve, in short life is not always fair but then it would not be fun enough if it was always fair.

I have not seen my family for the last three years, walked more than a mile in the middle of snow storms, lived on Maggi and Pizza for weeks, spent days without a single hour of sleep, spent a lot of my dad's money on the tuition, sacrificed all kinds of recreational interests but in the end it totally feels WORTH IT! I am totally blessed to have been able to achieve my degree.

Adios for now...

Life is a Bitch.

Times are really really bad for me. 2009 is turning out to be an absolute disaster. On top of that staying in America in these wretched times is taking its toll on me in every possible way.

Everything I set my eyes on or I aspire to achieve is being taken away from me for no fault or mistake of mine. Job opportunities, Money, Friends, Partners, Materialistic goods etc. You name a thing and I can assure you I have lost that or about to loose it in a span of 15 days around today.

I hope this loosing streak comes to an end soon.

Project 15 days

I have decided to plan towards a new goal in my life. The idea sprung from all the craziness going around in my life.

I want to spend a contiguous stretch of 15 days when I have absolutely nothing to worry about.

Some kinda vacation, alone or with just one other like-minded friend/partner for company. And I definitely have to do this before December 2010. An ideal day on this vacation would consist of a morning jog or swim, Bloody Mary with breakfast ;), scenic places to visit during daytime, and of course liquor and a nightclub for the dark hours.

Will plan more with time.

Pythons as pets?
Really?

The inference i draw is the world's biggest economy, world's most powerful nation, world's technological leader, world's blah blah blah also produces some of the most dumb people in the world.

Only a country like USA can produce 30k people in a single state(Florida) who want to keep Pythons as pets and then leave them on their own when they are bored of it. The country has outstretched the meaning of liberty way too far, practicality and common sense should always prevail over liberty. But as said by Voltaire "Common sense is not so common".

Ciao

P.S. I apologize if I have offended any American reading this blog but i really find the case amusing.

Enough is Enough !

I am tired of being jobless and watching videos on Youtube all day long.

So from today onwards I am not watching videos online till my first day of employment(which I am still seeking actively).
