Boy oh boy..!! It sure does feel nice to be back in the midst of things..!! :-)
It felt really gr8 catching up on what the college was upto and what was happening..!!
Summer internships for a lot of people I am sure were an enlightening experience…!! For those who still have not been enlightened – I guess the Summer Presentations are still there… ;-) Lol..
It was heartening to read about what people have undergone in their summers… my summers were quite boring compared to their experiences..!! But I guess “to each his own”..!!
Being in the corporate world sure does give you a feel of importance… I dunno how many of friends would agree with me on this… I love this world..!! Of course it might be too early for me to say that I love everything about my job but well so far it’s been good..!!
I remember the first time we were given access cards to enter into the sanctum sanctorum of the office…. Oh!! I felt like someone so important..!! heh heh..!! More so than ever when this person whom I had called up with regard to something called me Ma’am..!! :p Lol… and to think the guy was in the same level as me..!! :-)…
It feels good to hear when your roomie calls up and asks when are we going home..?? Is that apartment where we are staying actually home.. Well it is a home away from home.. Our own place.. No matter we pay an arm and a leg for it..!! And the exhilarating feel when u actually go out and buy something for the household (provisions and such)… and the fact that you actually think how much you are paying for it (it’s our hard-earned money after all..!!) and comparing brands… well… all I can is it’s quite an experience..!! Going back home to decide what to cook for the night and how to save up on stuff..!! Well… I am sure my parents are gonna be really happy to know how thrifty I have become..!!
I guess being out here in the “big, bad corporate” world does teach you a whole lot of things about LIFE… Sometimes you feel that life is so good..!! That nothing can ever go wrong… and the minute you start feeling that well… Murphy’s Law comes into play..!! Heard of it…??? Things that could not possibly go wrong will start going wrong..!! So you see… it does have its plus and minus points… I mean at least for me… for a girl who specialized in HR and who used to hate excel sheets look at what Satyam landed me into..!!! A world of excel sheets analyzing business performance..!! That’s why I guess some wise guy cracked.. “If you can’t do what you like.. Like what you do...”!! heh heh..!! And guess what I discovered – excel can be fun too..!!! :-).. Always look for the silver lining in the cloud…!!
Until the next time… ciao… adios… take care..!!! :)
