Yet another Birthday post...

Twenty Three?? It has been four years since people called me a teenager. I have already completed a quarter of my life. Working since an year now. I remember last time when i had written this i was still a guy just out of college. freedom was all that had filled my mind. now that very brain is stuck in a 8x6 cubicle, glaring at the monitor for close to 10 hours a day. Then spend 4 to 5 hours traveling. And even my dreams are filled with talks to manager and the team lead. In short, Life has been slow, dull and off late stagnant.
         If i was told in advance that this would be my fate last year at the same time, i would have most certainly been disappointed. This past year has been the most awful experience. I Know i am just about starting my career, but this is not even close to what i had imagined in my worst nightmares. Esp. the past six months after i began working actually has been pathetic to say the least. A work-o-holic team ( So work o holic that they deserved an entire post in my blog, where i rarely write anything), insane amounts of traveling, and sleeps filled with nightmares. This describes my last 6 months. To add to that, days seem to be very long, every morning I look forward to the time I leave office and that seems a long way away (thanks to Einstien's theory of relativity).
         Looking back at the last year, I feel a li'l proud that i came through all this. But it hasn't helped me that the phase hasn't passed yet. It has been so turbulent and hectic that i rarely see my parents(only on weekends), and further resulting in me losing contacts of many many of my mates. My sincere apologies to all of them. Just one positive being, I met a great and a special person, and the friendship has been amazing. A heart felt thanks to her.
          Other than work, CAT had kept my brains busy... but with that finished off 2 days back, i have very less to look forward to other than work. And the fact that even CAT didn't go well, my future looks very very blur.
           But great people have said, A bad start leads to a good end. Hopes, even though very less, are still alive. Time has to pass and this time i hope it passes relatively fast.

Happy 23 buddy!!!
