4.0 someone!

It was a sunday, I heard someone screaming and cursing...Ahhhhh Amey the football fanatic is watching the match in hall. Checked up my watch its 9.32 in the morning, today is the day i woke up early. So much things to do in a day. 2 assignments and 2 exams keeping me constantly in the hot seat.

I moved slowly through the room, Found the specs lying in the pile of the exam notes and grocery bills. As i reached the hall, had an instant feeling that i should eat something.Too many options are there...Bread, Bread and sauce, Bread and yesterdays subji or cereals and milk. Lets choose a option with no bread..so i decided on cereals, the healthy breakfast..Opened the fridge for the milk, Its finished!! Man a day of surprises.. I still remember the different breakfast made by mom each day....I wonder how she can manage that.

Had a hard time to move those sandwitches down the throat, logged on to the laptop, hoping to catch anyone to chat.Half an hour passed, Ohhhh man i forgot completely i have to go to the job..Ran like a maniac to catch the bus. Ahhhh...I miss my bike....

Its 9.30 now, I am back from the job, In no mood to study or atleast dont have a stamina for it. A day gone, Deadlines for the assignment and exam is approaching and still i want to play counter strike.

This is the sunday of my life in US. My friends back in india asking me u must be enjoying out there..this is the reality check for them.The Freedom the new life costs a lot. Before coming here had a lot of ideas in mind of what the things i want to do when i go to US, they are still a dream i am chasing.. A 4.0 GPA dream, the good internship dream, the big money dream.

Now i miss pune the most...the weekends at durga,that cold coffee and masala pav..Those roaming around the streets of pune fearlessly...that was real freedom.

Now dreaming about what all the things i will do when i go back to india at that point i heard mahesh calling 'Hey we got a 100 in the last assignment'. Ahhh some relief and finally a good surprise of the day it gave me a new hope.

I will study now thorughout the night and wake up late tommorow again, provided there is no football match tommorow.

The What-If Conundrum

One need not be a chamber to be haunted, one need not be a house

One only requires a heart, haunted by the memories of the past...

The memories of our loved ones, the momentos of our glory over our arch-enemy.

Noetheless, the memories which haunts us the most are the what-if conundrums..

The questions in our mind, the doubts on our actions as well as on god's...

What-If conundrums are the reasons we falter each time while making the same decision again. What-if last time i hadnt made this choice? What could have changed in my life?

We wonder about these everyday atleast i do..

The art of logic programming taught me one thing, Our life is designed by a higher power in such a way that in the end its result is always the same no matter what path it follows... If we know the output is the same then choosing the right path is upto us, the path in which lifes most valuable treasures lies. Its about to query the right decisions to hunt for that buried treasure. I still wonder what would have happened if i had chosen different career?

What if have become a rich restaurateur? But then i would have lost on the most amazing moments in my life, some amazing people i have met during my walk on the path.. In the end youwin some, you loose some..It upto to you ultimately to make these choices. ultimately,the happiness lies in the acceptance of the decisions you made and the path you walked on.

No point in looking through the shadows of the past...

and haunting ourselves with them.
