Alright, finally the time has arrived for which I had been waiting for a long time! Its the beginning of a new life, a new world to me. This new everything expects or rather requires me to be a new entire being too. Don't really know if I am anyways capable of doing any of that but I know one thing that I am willing to tackle things that lay piled up for me in the near future. As for the war of feelings and emotions going on inside me, there's a part which makes me ponder over that unfortunate moment when I readily uploaded this huge decision in my horoscope. Something that wouldn't allow my family and my people to be an active part of my life for a good period of time but that occurs for just a matter of instance. Optimism and high zeal still rest as the overpowering part of the war. Will miss some amazing people that I know and will miss some beautiful times I spent being with them but I guess that is the real essence of the turn of the events taking place in my life.
I hope living thousands of miles away from my home and entering into the corporate world proves to be a major milestone for me and leads me to the place I have always wanted to be!!
Fingers X :)

Slumdog Millionaire
The movie's ending song was still running when I was already logging into my whatever. Slumdog Millionaire is one piece of splendid research and deliverance. I don't remember when I last enjoyed every single moment of a movie to this extent. The way the slums of Mumbai have been portrayed makes you build an exact picture of what the reality might hold. The life of people in those slums is more awful than I could ever imagine. No safety, no direction, just living for the heck of it. There's nothing but s**t in their lives. It made me believe the saying more than before that "Its a sin to be born poor". Though its worth pondering why hollywood was closer to real India while bollywood couldn't come up with a subject which was dwelling right here with us, but its still appreciable that a subject like this was thought and executed, that too, so well. All I can say to summarize is - A must-watch!
Great work Mr.Boyle!

Whats with Raju?
If I recall the time when I completed my secondary school and had to opt for a career line, I took non-medical in awe of the boom in the IT industry at that time. And through all the subsequent years, the industry has grown and touched great heights. But with the collapse of Satyam, things don't appear the same.
Ramalinga Raju's huge scam of over 7000 crore rupees, first of its nature and extent in Indian history, has put a question mark on the credibility of Indian IT cos. Thousands of people affected, some in terms of their careers while others with their investments. Many crores of rupees going missing! Above all, a national loss of a major IT company as it sinks! Talking of Ramanlinga Raju, there are certain questions that hover in my mind. Being the founder and chairman of Satyam Computers, why would he not deal with the problems as and when they started? Why would he want the company to run in losses? Why would a man with an intellect like his choose to ride a tiger knowing he can't get off without being eaten? Did he do that with the only aim of making large amounts of fast and illegal money? Can a founder seek to destroy his own foundation? As people and web portals reveal, Raju is a man to be looked up to! He was(is) an inspiration, an idol to those who worked with him. He sure is a culprit, culprit to the law and all the people who trusted him and his company but I still feel there is another side of all of this which is yet to be explored. He is not a hero, but he is not even a deliberate criminal. I sincerely wish that things become transparent soon and Satyam, unlike Enron, regains its lost position.
I just wish Satyam and well, Raju too, all the best!

I am overwhelmed!
Hi all...
Am just back from the last party of the day (haven't counted the total number yet!) and attended my last call for the wishes (Well they're uncountable!). Feeling too tired, can't stand on my feet for more than 10 seconds, headache going to and fro like a pendulum in my head but I still can't afford to miss the chance to express whats running through my mind besides the oscillating pendulum!!
After celebrating four blasting birthdays in the hostel, I was sure am gonna miss my hostel today but surprisingly it didn't really happen! Or may be I was too occupied to think of my past parties. The day was overflowing with things I have always adored - flowers, stuff toys, temptations, chocolate cakes and parties. After all, am just another girl! Compared to my previous years, I wasn't much excited for my day this year and had too normal an attitude towards it. But well, I have some awesome people around me who always make sure that its not even that normal. It may be a small gesture at their part but then its not only just a gesture to me! It was only friends till now who used to make my day, semester exams at the end of the year never allowed family to be a part of it, but am so glad there were both this time! And the way it turned out was outta my expectation's domain. But then I feel, unexpected things are far better than those which are expected.. right?
All I wanna say is that you guys RoCk big time yaar!! Mmuaah!
CHEERS to all you amazing people!!
At last.. Happy Birthday to Me :)
So where's the party Tonight? (Cummon, its new year eve yaar!!) ;)

Flawless.. if something can be!
This is with reference to the movie Ghajini. Perhaps the most talked about and most awaited movie of the year 2008. You must have gone through the feeling when there is lots that is being expected outta you. The feeling is of uneasiness, sometimes disturbing, making you lose concentration and yeilding many what-ifs running through the mind's aisle! But the deed is to live up to the expectations despite the pressure. Similar is what I felt for Aamir when I saw the movie today. Amidst the expectations, the guy has delivered an immaculate performance and has hit the screen with a big bang! Two kinda roles have been show cased in the movie, and its difficult to judge which one of the two enjoyed more justice. After his great piece - Taare Zameen Par, one could portray him in a similar frame of looks in Ghajini but the lad knew how to bring out the difference. Feels really great to witness someone loaded with this great amount of talent. Kudos to The Ace khan - Aamir Khan!
