College to Office …..


College life seems to have left my hand and I hardly had time to realize that
Good old days man ! I miss them ! I miss attending those lectures , bunking those tutorial classes we used to have at PCC .
Sitting wid friends in the corridors and discussing everyting else except studies .
Planning post exams outings …much ahead of the exams !! Cursing the college the university corrections the sem durations the local buses , the timetable the results ….uff !! and yea also the long queue in the library , paisa khao examination and the revaluation forms ! Gosh…what an experience !!!

Besides fooling arnd what I also miss is the sincerity behind studies and the so called replication of submissions, the hardwork behind the last minute preparations ….Uff!!! Those were great days . Rumours abt the results and the lastminute change in time table ….

Then came the days when i realized its time to prove my self …its time to earn urself a living ! to get a JOB!!! This word has haunted me for a long time ……I used to see my friends content with a job before even before passing out of engg ….They were too good !! However hard I tried I never succeeded in clearing those stupid aptitute tests . Huh !!

But yea …I too had my day !!
The day when I happened to clear an aptitude. Was so used to NOT clearing any campus recruitment tests …..i ignored the fact that my name was called out for the Info-ReachTest ….I dint expect that at all ! Guess I was so used to disappointment …..that I dint want to …or rather was skaid to answer my first ever tech interview !! I cudnt belive the fact that I had later cleared the interview too …..

And then started the days ….of working !
The jobbing !!!


Was too excited on joining my first job ….as I just wanted the world to know that I finally had a job. That I was not so dumb !! yes …this was what I went thru

As I was getting used to the new environment ..i also realized the feeling that slowly creeped in my mind. Independence …… I am a grown up girl now …
I had started to take things coolly (which is otherwise not my nature and my friends know that well )

Few words started to become an integral part of my life …
Routine , Projects , Team , Development Testing and last but not the least Deadline ! …..i finally came to know what a deadline is and what it takes to complete one !!
U shud remain as cool as possible…
Believe in the fact that Google can find u everything !! possibly everything on this earth ! lol!!!!
And above all ……don’t think abt the after effects …as the more u think abt the time left and the amount of work left …the more it affects ur work !!!

That’s work !!
Other aspects like Confidence …which I seriously lacked …started to build in me ! I knew I can program …I knew I’m capable of taking up tasks ! that is a great feeling one can possess !!

But what I cannot get back in life is the time I spent wid my lovely friends …
The jokes we cracked ..the laughter, the canteen atmosphere ….their support …their suggestions their comments , their opinions the fights and the compromises !!!
Life cannot give u back these moments ….Coz its those special friends whom one always remembers in happy and sad moments of life !!

Goa in the Rains ........







Snaps taken during our company outing to Ponda . Thnks to my colleagues for having clicked such beautiful snpas of beutiful Goa in the rains
Don’t know …..

Donno y ! I donno y this earth is round ? I don’t know why the sky is blue .
I don’t know why every morning the sun rises and then sets in the evening .I don’t know y there r starts twinkling in the sky ! I don’t know why there is water in the rivers .
I don’t know why I am a muslim and why some r hindus and some are Christians .
I don’t know why every mother cares so much for her children . I don’t know why a father works so hard to keep his family happy . I don’t know why children never think of their old parents the way they r supposed to . I don’t know why today the girls dress like men ? ..I don’t know why love has lost its essence in this world ? I don’t know where has peace disappeared from amongst us.

I really don’t know……

No one can even imagine how much pain a mother takes to get her newborn to life .
No one can ever imagine how much pain and toils a father goes thru to see a smile of satisfaction on his child’s face . Its even difficult to imagine as to y the same child then forgets all the troubles his parents had been thru to see him what he is now .


Differences between mankind today have reached heights that the world has never seen before . There is bloodshed everywhere . None trusts anyone. There is a wave of threat and fear that runs in our minds and hearts . There is insecurity .

Restlessness and selfishness . The crave to be like God (the best the most famous ) can take a person very far from his moral values , from where there is no turning back .

When we say whatever happens happens for the best…we say with full faith .Faith in God Almighty . The faith that can never be measured on any scale . It takes faith to cultivate faith !

But what I really know is that Peace used to reside here and it will when Love will have no end and no reason. When faith will lie in our hearts .When ……..


I have faith in Almighty ! I have faith in us ! I believe in God !

Just a wish I pray to come true is that our planet sees a beautiful morning where there is Faith and Love spread all over ! Where everyone is happy ! Where life seems to be heaven !
