First of all, lots been going on in my life but I can't use them as the excuse to be away from here for so long and come back here for the same reasons ! I am really sorry , but well, I am focussing lot of my energy on three priority things at the moment :
1. Work @ Office
2 .Alma-mater Reunion preparation activities
3. MBA preparation
The order of the points listed above are by no means differentiating them with the priority I give to each of them . The above three spheres have their own place in my life and I wish to offer complete justice to the attention each one deserve, to my full strength .
It's been a lovely journey so far the way I do my work or infact a day-job to win my bread and butter . I can't imagine I am on the verge to complete 1 year 10 months in my first job this month-end and wow , what a journey it has been ! Lot of new people, lot of gyan , lot of exposure , lot of office jargon ,lot of office politics I witnessed ( or the things which I claim it to be part of office - politics with my limited understanding ) .In the process, I garnered lots of support from my peers, seniors and ofcourse my manager .It's been a real joyride with lot of learning . I was amazed when I came across all the nitty-gritty things which I learnt as I came to this point and directly related to the vague notion which I had before joining the job . I boast sometimes and tell myself that what I knew is so true ( althought not completely :-) ). I love my job but well, you know , this is just a start for me and I wish to pick lot many milestones as I go along this awesome journey of life .
Well, I always believed and been a strong advocate of the idea that "Your day-job is just one part of life and not everything to rely upon to make your life happy ( or to some people, a reason to become moron , sad and lose interest in life) " . It's our life and we need to play it in our own way , the way we wish to lead it , in our own terms ! But to those who feel this is directly picked up from some bollywood movie ,I guess I need to add a disclaimer at the end of the post that any such resemblances are mere coincidence and nothing else ;) . Coming back to the point of leading life , it will become a totally different ball-game when we play our life led by external terms and accept the defeat that such terms are stronger and believe that we have no control on them . Anyways, just my 2 cents though from the life-skills I learnt from innumerable resources surrounding me .
Coming to the second point , my alma-mater UVCE will be witnessing a MegaReunion coming December,2010 . And the preparations are in full swing but need to be stepped up in terms of awareness about the same in the complete UVCE fraternity and outside. Also, it requires huge response from the attendees, volunteers at this moment like never before, just like the events organised on such large-scale basis . We need lot more think-tanks to take initiatives to build the strong network of their batches and club them together to form a huge well-connected web where every UVCEian belongs to the such a strong network . Infact, we came up with this website VisionUVCE to achieve that dream and it's been a tremendous success so far . If any UVCEian who is reading this now and hasn't registered on visionuvce.in , I kindly request you to click the link above and register yourself right away ! You might ask why I need to register . The benefits are immense and it can only be left to your imagination how you can get benefitted from the same . Short term benefits which I can recall are you will not miss any single update about the event MegaReunion which I am sure, you wish to attend at any cost ! Right ?:P Apart from that, there are some cool features lined up for the website . To give a glimpse of that , soon there will be online list of all your classmates grouped according to their batch and branch who have registered on the site . This will help you to track your long-lost classmate and then , we will be more than happy to facilitate the contact details of the person you were looking for , after minor verification to keep entire process safe and secure .
I am delighted to receive comments on what can be the long-term benefits and how we can achieve that ! So I invite every UVCEian to come for volunteer meetings happening every Saturday in Alumni Hall, UVCE City campus , 3 pm to get acquainted with the plans and share their thoughts . We would be more than happy to get few helping hands to make this event a mega-success . Just leave a comment below to know more about the event and meetings . I will touchbase with you so that we can take it forward . And if you are twitter-freak, you will not miss any updates @uvcealumni .
Coming back to my third point , I have a dream to do my MBA and willing to apply next fall i.e Fall 2011 . My preparations are going at snail-pace but wish to speed it up pretty soon . I would love to share the details with you all but for that I created a new blog just now titled "Ride to my MBA" and will be posting MBA updates I get from various sources which interest me and may benefit you as well as keep track of my progress to achieve that coveted MBA seat . Please pour in your suggestions / comments / topics which you really aspire to read from my posts in this regard or in any matter overall , so that this blog just doesn't become a place where I vent out all my feelings and thought-process going on in my non-stop mind , but a platform to serve you all in the stuffs you want it to .
Time to crash into my bed ! Thanks for reading this lengthy post :P . If you really read this till now , I am sure you will post a comment , right ?
