It’s been sometime, I picked up my Laptop for writing anything. Not because I shunned my passion for writing, but I was busy in a wild goose chase. To tell people who don’t know me personally, I was preparing for CAT (An entrance test for MBA in Indian colleges). For the general knowledge of my esteemed readers, this year there were just 2.76 Lakh (0.276 Million) candidates vying for 1800 seats. So now you know why I say it’s a wild goose chase. But to be true, preparation for MBA has definitely helped me if not getting a seat in some suitable MBA college. Most importantly I got some time to introspect on what I need and want to do in near future. Not that I am better now with my confused self. But at least it made me think away from the dead end of the IT Sector. I am still not very convinced of some solid reason why I should be pursuing an MBA degree except for the fact that I want to get out of IT Sector. Hope better sense prevails in coming days and I am more sure of where am heading. Hey wait…I am not writing this to start cribbing again. I have done enough of that with different set of people time and again.
Actually after a long time, I picked up a book to read. Onitsha by J.M.G. Le Clezio. The book is winner of 2008 Nobel Prize for literature and written in French and translated in English by Alison Anderson. Nice book. Language is not rhetoric but has music like flow. It has the power to sensitize all your sense organs as it is full of atmosphere – sights, sounds and smells. But what is important to me is it brought back the zeal of writing again. With a happening but not so fruitful 2008 behind me, I am actually looking for some sheer commitment from my side in 2009. I have a long list in my mind. Nothing different from 2008 though. The only difference I want this year is my commitment to do things. Let’s see how it goes. First of all there are lots of topics on which I want to write. So would be starting on that soon. So keep checking this space and I promise this place won’t be so dry in days to come. I am also taking my photography passion seriously as well. We took a photography trip to Bannergatta park recently. Please check out the photos in Photo Gallery. Also with CAT out of bag now I have to start the prep for GMAT. So these are the primary things on cards and also planning for some more stuff as well but will take it as it comes. Hoping to keep the creative flame burning within me here goes my first post of 2009.
