Seems like a long time since I last blogged!
Life in Pilani is showing up with different colours everyday. One can easily get lost in this place. There could be any number of things happening around you at any given point of time! I just can't come to think of my situation had I been admitted to any one of those city colleges where people dump girlfriends faster than they change their underwear!
Making sense of things around me has never been so difficult! Things have not been upbeat for me. Not many positive results that I have seen happen to me in the last couple of months. Yet, I have had times when my heart jumped and skipped a beat!
The Story of ABC seems to bother me no more. I have decided that the story wont be written. What happens in real life depends entirely on chance - or should I say providence! I seriously don't care about so many things right now!
My "geekdom" has got quite a savoury of its own. I have been able to satiate my ego in more ways than one in our last tech fest in Pilani. Reading up stuff on Swarm Intelligence & Wireless Networks & Network Simulators and successfully recompiling open source software and extending open source code and blah blah... Its been good for me. (I was about to be selected to show off my stuff to the Chancellor of my institute - until a professor remarked "I think this is a bit too technical for him to understand" :-)) The bad part of course is the void in terms of materialistic results - no prizes for me this time!
Something that I really enjoyed this time was responsibility! Coordinating with sixteen juniors under me and pulling off a brilliantly organized workshop might not sound very great. It was an enriching experience for me though and I am sure for all the juniors who I am sure are much more confident individuals now. Leadership is surely something that you can inculcate in yourself through experience - and I am certainly looking forward to many of such experiences now.
A Memory is all too precious sometimes... you don't want to lose it under any circumstances. Let the memories be stored!
