Life moves on now...and i dunno whether to laugh or cry over this...But life after engineering for me is....COMPLETELY BLANK!!
sure i hav plans...and big dreams....but right now...at this very moment...life is not quite "secured" as it is for others...and its freaky and a hell lot scarryy!!!
Ppl around discussing joinin dates at companies...others on with their visa enquiries and US dreams...
ME...sittin around...watchin them...and thinkin..."what abt me??"
Somehow things in Engineering didnt quite "happen" for me....i wonder why...
I din do anythin wrong...i KNW i din do anythin wrong...
I wonder how things work in this world of ours...
Lemme just analyse things here...
More than 3/4th of electronics in my college reads from MY notes!
Now...i dont take credits for making them or anythin...coz i just copy whats dictated...
my point is...if they read from it...it HAS to be good right...which has to imply that the writer has to b good enuf...
Look at me...not even in the top 40 in ELEX!
I wonder wher the days hav gone wen i was among the top 7 in my class...What did i do wrong here in engineering?
Dont tell me i didnot study enuf...coz i knw i tried my best...i knw and remember the days when i hav slept for less than 5 and a half hrs even when i was down with a freakin migraine...
I know a guy in elex...lets call him AB....
Now...AB is a guy who has things happenin for him...happenin is actually an understatement for him...He has things rolling for him...
And the worst part is....He freakin likes to boast and flaunt around...
Oh GOD! its soo irritating and frustrating....
Studies...Achievements...gals...the guy has a golden spoon on everything...
I am not jealous...no way...but i never boast around so devilishly...
Still things keep happenin for such guys...
and what do i do...
Keep listenin to his flaunts ...what else can i do...
yes...i feel like shoutin at him sometimes to STOP...and just get lost...but i cant do it...
ohh...I wonder what i did wrong...
Somehow...things just dint do right...Did i screw up??Nope...Life screwed me up....
Life dint understand what i wanted from it i think...nor did someone whose name i wont mention...
Ahhh...Life COULD have been so good...
Well...
I told Sanjai this when we were discussin abt AB and his irritating nonsense...
"JOH JEETA WOHII SIKANDER..."
He is thw winner now...he has every right to do as he wants...
But u knw what....The RACE of life hasnt finished yet....

Glad to finally hear from you Prasad! Thanks for droppin by.
i want to share with u my experience.. in my whole high school I would say im an above average achiever and did quite well (not the best, but good) in all public exams, school exams and was a social butterfly.. i never studied much but things were good for me.. i went into engineering thinking .. well how bad can it be.. I was CraP.. since i never studied in high school i had problems being hardworking in college.. i would say i did badly.. i passed but with below average grades. All my peers did better than me. Some went on to do research in big companies, many posted overseas.. etc.. i tot since i sucked.. i better go into sales and marketing which is more of my forte.. it was the BEST decision i have ever made.. Instead of being a good engineer, earning mediocre salary I made more money and had much more career advancement than 90% of my peers.. the race is not finished yet.. find what you are good in and work on that! Im still trying and still hopeful but no longer regretful that I didn’t study harder or did better in my electronics & electrical engineering degree.. **** EEE, rejoice in being you. Will let you know in another 5 years time if im where I wanted to be ;)
hey mr. engineer
seems to me ur heart doesnt lie in elex,a nd that's perfectly fine.
everyone is destined to do smthings, and everyone does some things better than the rest.
AB's life is good, so good for him, though am sure secretly he'll have his own set of 'problems'..sometimes boasting is a way of telling urself it'll be fine u know
but psychology apart, i like that last line
the race hasnt even begun yet
good luck and do well:)
ur life will not be regulated by ur engg gradesheets - take that from someone been there done that!
where u ll end up, is where u ll choose to be. so go for it....coz as u rightly said, the race has just begun!! ;)
....and the results will SURPRISE everybody, including YOU!
Atta Boy!
Thats the spirit!
The race of life isnt finished yet--in fact its just begun!
And hey this is just a phase..one of those tests that everyone has to go through...the fact that ur still smiling means half the battle is won!:-)
All the best!
