First Anniversary!!!

Its been a year since I started blogging and exactly a year since I posted my first post!!! I still can believe that I haven't written anything for a year. 2010 has been a great year which can never be forgotten by me. The year kick started with me failing to clear the aptitude test of the first company that came to recruit us on campus. The same day I missed XAT for which I had been preparing for a year. Two days later i got my first arrear. Then came a second company for which I cleared the aptitude test but was rejected in the HR rounds because of my arrear. My feeling at that point of time is inexplicable. I was totally dejected. If at all for my friends and family I would never have crossed this phase of my life. Then came the much awaited CAT results and I got about 92 percentile. This gave me a boost. I had a chance of getting into the colleges I applied. Then I got recruited into a company. I still don't know how they ignored my arrear as the company had a policy of recruiting students having no history of arrears let alone standing arrears. The almighty had shown some grace to this poor fellow. In the mean time the revaluation results came and I still didn't clear the paper. I couldn't take it and applied for a challenge. The result finally came a week before the arrear exam and I had cleared the paper! I was simply ecstatic. The most important thing I got out of 2010 is the insight to spirituality, the world of spirituality and what spirituality exactly was. Then I completed my B.E and the company into which I got recruited was one of the first companies to give call letters and I joined the company in July, just about a month after i had got my final semester results. At this moment I am in Kolkata, on site, in my first ever project. This year has been a roller coaster ride and a ride which i will cherish for a long time to come.

Merry Christmas!!
