U get what U wish !!!


Three weeks into Gurgaon . Stay each week at different place. Yet to find a permanent accomodation and yet to shift . Yet adjusting to new things. 

Almost a new problem everyday . If nothing then the Airtel people are enough to raise a new one out here . First in MNP, which is yet to be resolved even after 18 days of application and 7 days of inactive sim. 

How has Gurgaon been to me  ? Or perhaps you can ask how have been the times since I landed in Gurgaon been ? 

Whether did I expect to be left stranded in the middle of the street at 11 pm with my luggage ( Yes , too filmy ) | 

Or whether I would be left wanting for dinner at 10.45 pm expecting food outlets to be open at that hour of the evening ( Yes , only found a momo wala thela in the market open at that time) | 

Or whether the broker wont dupe me of my money ( Even after wasting 2-3 days of my time behind him ) |

Or after staying so many years in Mumbai , whether I would be scared to travel at 12-1 am at night ( The street lights are kept off to save electricity , says the Uber driver) |

Or people would be the same way helpful like Mumbai crowd (Got lost a no. of times) |

Or whether my sim would not get ported , and would eventually drive me crazy to live without net for 3 straight days while being on field for sales job ( Some of the toughest times ) |

Or whether even a new wifi dongle would take more than 27 hours to activate as against normal 6 hrs activation routine |

A no. of small problems . Delayed solutions. 
New job. High work pressure. New place. Unknown roads. Known destinations. 

I knew these times would come. I knew it would be tough. But it just got a bit more tougher than I anticipated . 
But this is what makes you. What challenges you. What makes you do that you are not comfortable with. 

Kotak has done all that to me. 
Last minute Joining preponed from 18th to 11th May. 
Last one to get email id.
Last one from the batch to open account.
Last one to get salary credited (delayed) from the batch. 
Last minute surprise transfer to Gurgaon.

And if nothing else , Sales. That anyways was there from the start , alone enough to challenge me wholly. 
But I chose it. I wanted a location outside Bombay. 
And I am today here. 

Just this phase. I know it will end soon. I shall overcome it soon enough. Just that bit more patience and control.All the Best to me !!!

And I hope to smile reading this post after a few months / years . Alongwith the feeling that this experience gave me what I wanted. 

Be clear of what you wish for. It always get answered. And then be ready to face all the consequences. 



Also its raining like Bombay over here.  :-D

Handshakes , Hi-fis & Hugs !!! [Part - I]

HANDSHAKES      Admission to KGCE and four years of life to be spent at Karjat . Mentally, I was kind of prepared for the slow, boring , monotonous college life I would have to face . Friends would only be the only thing that could make  my journey worthwhile ,it felt       In these four years , time flew , new faces came in my life , some old faces faded off , while some still hanged on to me through each phase . Relations were made, bonds were formed , various strings got attached , and vice versa too.      This happens with everyone of us , in any journey , still I feel each handshake we make makes a difference to our journey . Many handshakes in the past 4 years of my life, but some brought more much than friendship with them to me.   Time - August 2008 Place -F.E 'E' The first day of my engg. college life , having met a few known faces , I walked in the classroom and took a secluded seat . Lectures we...

For 2013 and rest !!!

A new year , new day but not a new beginning to life !!! Life will continue from where we left it in the past year . N life will follow it's trends this year too, for all of us . Just some nice lines I would like to put forward related to this . These are part of a short essay , from my 7th class Scholarship notes . " Life is not a bed of roses , nor all beer & skittles , nor always full of pleasure , amusement and ease . Ups and downs are bound to occur , but we should all learn from the Japanese , who with incessant , persistent efforts have overcome all obstacles and attained pacific heights in technology field. The failures should learn from them that , 'While there is life , there is hope .'  Remember , positive attitude and not aptitude decides one's altitude in life and helps one reach pinnacle of glory. " If  life was good to you in 2012 , success was what you tasted last year , then do not loosen up. Keep your good work going and continue pu...

The Fall & The Rise !!!

     Having lived through common ups and downs with exams and results throughout school days as any other student , I had eventually tasted 'Success' in SSC when i scored 90+ % . Success brings alongwith itself a lot of things like happiness , good fortunes , joy , satisfaction ,confidence ,etc. But life has it's own terms of dictating. All good things come to an end and so did mine .      Failure struck me during my 12th board exams . Unaware about my fortunes ,  I was living life ,as usual in my own terms . No. of different entrance examinations were lined up during the summer days . Sure that I would live upto the expectations of atleast myself , I was preparing on a regular basis for the exams at home . Exams came and went . The feeling was obvious that i would eventually make it through to a decent engineering college through atleast one of the many cards i had played with. Summer ended with exams taking a leave from my life and along...
