Packing and Moving

Packing and moving is one of those activity which involves both being happy and sad at the same time. An emotionally charged activity where one is excited to see what future beholds but as the human tendency too attached to let go off the present!
I am now packing off to mark an end to my journey at Mangalore and at Infosys at large.
I too have the low times knowing that I won't be a part of Infosys network to be easily communicate with my friends over communicator, won't be in the Karnataka zone to make those easy intra-state calls to plan to meet friends in circle, no more pings calling for lunch, no more party @ fc mails, and so much more.
But this is exactly why I am leaving because all I will miss is the 'having fun' part. I won't miss a quad of my project times. I am too young to be so sad! :)
Well back to the packing stuff. I have never been averse to packing, rather I think I love it. Because it involves a promise of some exciting experience in future. :)
The last when I was most excited about packing was when we were leaving for a three day trip to Ooty from Mysore during my training days. The reason I was so excited was that I was going on this trip with relatively new friends and the fact that the trip's last day was falling on my birthday! More on that later!
So here I am packing again. And i am most apprehensive about transporting the full carton of my book collection and as I counted; in last one year I have collected 32 books! :) :)
Not bad given the 5 months of Infosys training is cleared with 4.8! :P
Apart from that I just have 4 bags!! Not bad!! I am not an out-of-control-acumulating-goods kind of girl! I am sorted out!! :D
I will soon put up the picture of the carton that carries my books! What?? Its important to me! :)

Recalling Ooty trip!

Ooty trip. 24th - 25th October 2009. Most memorable trip! This trip was my escape plan! My birthday was falling on this weekend and I didn't want it to be like the birthday routine (mostly at food court 5 - oasis) of the Infosys, Mysore campus. So when I heard Sachit (who was from my college but had come to know him during training as he sat one seat beside me) planning a trip to Ooty with all his friends. I showed my interest in joining them clearly stating how I didn't want to be in the campus on my birthday falling that Sunday. He agreed. That is how I happen to go on this trip with Sachit, Sharad, Shikha and Varun. All were new to me! Before this trip I have hardly ever exchanged formal greeting with them and now here I was going to a beautiful hill station on a weekend! We left early morning for Udhagamandalam. On the way we had to cross Bandipur National Park. We stopped there and decided to take a Safari ride. Well it happened so that we missed on the early morning Safar...

Learning the hard way

Classroom teaching is organized learning where in words of many researchers and analysts decide what content will be taught and in what manner. As a child everybody has had their times of despising classroom either for selective subject or like me, simply for all of them. But 20 years past one realizes how essential indeed were those classroom sessions. And that is cause of the natural phenomenon that one understands the importance of something in life when that goes away from you. Have come too far from classrooms. And the most painful part in all of this is the fact that learning is not seized. Lot of things we are still suppose to learn in the daily course of action. But these lessons do not come from well structured course books illustrated by a teacher, it come to us the hard way. Hours after any incidence you analyze and understand the triggering factors for the event and their effective impacts. And then you really introspect that what & how exactly one was supposed to do in...

Mera purna-janam hua hai!

That is what I said at my party as I stand today having resigned from Infosys and now going back home to search for a job I would like! I am reborn! Its not that I am seeing my proffessional life as something which will have fresh start but also relations. People come up with complete other side to themselves when they know that one of them is leaving and that there is a possibility that you might not meet that person again. Last three parties post my last day at office have been such experiences and it has made me richer! :) On tuesday after office I went out with all my toastmasters friends! Toastmasters was the only thing which kept me busy in "true" sense at office! And so it was special. I was been surprised with this lovely cake they all got for me : After decently having cake, I was being warned that if the cake would not finish I would have to face the fate and so it was.... And these were the culprits .. And so after all present there had their part of fun we all we...
