Dilemma...why always me???

"Dilemma"..it feels lyk some1 is talking about me

Well from the time immemorial or shud i say, since the beginning of the dawn for me i had always been full of choices. Some may take it as, "what luck" but the truth is something different, whenever u have choices to make u become dumbfound as to which way to go and that as a result makes u indecisive as u always have to consult people for the same.
But if on the other hand u dnt have any extra choice u r atleast sure of ur move and don't require any consultancy.

Now discussing 1 of my ongoing dilemmas', as i mentioned in my prev blog that m working in FIS and also appeared for CAT this tym and even expecting calls from the same. Now here comes my dilemma; my company (FIS) has its base mostly onsite and they handle all the new projects from abroad itself. And now after working for long six months (mite b a short period for sme but not for me) i realized ther is certainly lot of possibility for me to go abroad if stay in the company for an year or 2.
"What to do now?" a very common qustion has sprang up in front of me again.

Shud i stay in the company and commit myself to work or go for my post graduation.
Shud i prepare for my GD/PI or let everything go the way it is going. Shud i again consult people or decide for myself. These qustions are again making be agonized.

If i want to discuss this with smbody than who's that somebody? Generally it's my bro who i feel is the apt person to consult but for how long; my dilemmas' are never ending. Sometimes i feel m i still not mature enough or grown up to keep my dilemmas to myself and become decisive.
I guess its me only who's responsible for my sufferings bcoz until and unless i take decisions by myself and don't take assistance from others, i won't feel that m grown enough, but i know i am and its time for me to show, to pretend that i m good enough in taking my own decisions.
I am the qustion and i m the answer

CAT 2008

It was my 2nd attempt for CAT. Yes i did appeared for CAT last tym also but failed to get thru any good B-School (limited seats u know). The only thing that bothered me last tym wen cat result was out was that i filled nearly 10-12 colleges under CAT and got call from none. For a minute i was dismayed wen i saw my result but u know u will always find people around u who can boost u up by scoring less than u. CAT 2007 was lyk a catastrophe to me.
The result for other colleges was also disclosed one by one and fortunately i got call from 2 symbiosis college. But being a fresher I was not even able to get thru these 2 avg colleges (u r free to call it an excuse bcoz it is :))

Finally I joined Fidelity Information Services, bangalore and decided to gain work ex and then do MBA; for it was the only option left. Then came CAT 2008, don't know y but my perseverance was lost and i didn't prepared much for the xam and gave it on the prescribed day. Was not expecting much after i left the center but after hearing the views of my frienz and people around me i turned optimistic (not very but yes i was now a bit hopeful).

CAT result was out and atleast i scored more than wat i did last yr :).Even unlike last yr i had not filled many colleges but this tym was expecting call from a college or two. And can u believe i have already got calls from 2 colleges and expecting a call from 1 more. But this tym i need to convert it at any cost for my excuse of fresher has already lost its validity...lol

PS: Its the state of mind that matters the most (as i didn't prepared much for CAT this tym i didn't felt ny tension while appearing for the same and hence scored well atleast from the last tym wen i was well prepared)

Nostalgia

Few days bak i watched "Taare Zameen Par" and was about to burst into tears if my friend wud not had been sitting besides me and somehow i controlled myself obviously due to fear of embarrassment (its in human nature u see) . But since then TZP has become my all tym favourite. The movie made me feel nostalgic of those old dayz wen i used to stay with my family at home. It was a gr8 feeling that had occured after such a long tym for i m away from my home since close to 5 yrs. Although i talk to my parents after every 2-3 dayz but that day i was really missing them.
