After re-reading the classic life changer ' Who moved my cheese?' by Dr Spencer Johnson an umpteenth time, I sadly but surely realised for the umpteenth time, that the only thing that does not change in life is change itself!
The title of this little piece is obviously inspired from the above mentioned book, but the next 300 or so words you gonna read has nothing to do with his philosophy but surely is gonna change ur lives forever!!
Now if u believed that, u've got a serious problem! :D
This incident is more than a couple of years old. The Occasion- My convocation. I went to stage to receive the honour, Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical & Electronics. I asked myself " Had i done justice to the degree?", back came the answer within a nanosecond; A big bold capital NO! I had done everything but studies; learnt to ride bikes, discovered as many restraunts as manipal and neighbourhood could offer, made loads of friends- good ones! Everything except studies. 4 years were heaven. I was lucky to get placed from the campus. So my engineering was 'succesful' but did i do justice to it? Nope. I promised myself then, that i ll pursue further education.
CAT happened. Got through IIM C, more due to divine providence rather than perseverance or quality! Now, i had a promise to deal with and i had no clue how i wud do it. I chose to do what i do best, take the easier route. Conveniently forgot the promise and continued in the same vein as i was during my grads. 1 year passed by, and the internships over too. 2nd year seems to be a replica of the year that just went by. Already a brilliant trek done! Exploring the elusive north east, road trips, Goa and Andaman already on cards for the rest of the year, your guess is as good as mine on wat my next 7 months is gonna be like.
Education and me seem to be like development and West Bengal. It never happens! Now at the twilight of my student days, I have a choice to make. Study Hard coz i never might get another chance or make the most of my last college days. If the reader knows the author ( ME) a wee bit, then you dont need to be a Sherlock Holmes to guess my decision.
.... or may be i shud read " who moved my maggi..... oops ..cheese" again... :)
