StarGazing

Yesterday we roamed around the campus till 1.30 in the night, looking at the sky, in expectations of catching sight of the Leonid meteor showers. The Leonids are considered to be one of the most spectacular meteor showers. Updates showed us that it was supposed to be clearer around 3-4am. But, we were not able to stay back any longer, because of the sub zero weather and a early morning shift. Maybe, i will try to watch it this Friday.

Watching the Sky during the Night Time is Magical! It brings back old memories as well as expectations about the future! I can recollect so many Good Old Memories, but writing that here might bore you out. So, i am skipping that part, so that you can fill it with the Good Times that you spent under the Sky! The Cool Breeze! and the Sound of Night! Staring up into the sky, pointing out at star constellations. It is one of the best ways to relax and enjoy the Gift called Life. Priceless!

Update: I witnessed the Leonid Meteor Shower, the next day after writing this post. Thanks to the Astronomy Club of Syracuse, who took as to a wonderful place on South Campus where we were able to get a clear view of the sky and the stars!

After finishing ma Final (ah… at last!) Semester Exams, i heaved a sigh of relief! At last… No more Subjects to Study, Exams to write, Results to worry about! Writing Exams, ah Not a Big Deal! Combined studies a few days before the exam… Listening out to all those ma frnds have studied(this is combined study!) And the Final Semester, it was very very easy, coz the exams were during the afternoons! It was only during the Mornings that we studied… Everyone will study 1 unit a day b4 the exam… And teach that unit to others next day… Thus all 5 Units are covered… We even did revision 2-3 times!

But, Every Semester, i dread one thing… Thats checking out the Results! Anna University Results… Eppa varum ne theriyathu… Exam Mudicha annai la irunthu itho varuthu atho varuthu nu bayamuruthite irupaanga! Thidirnu oru naal expect eh pannaama irukum botha Damaal nu vituduvaanga! Jolly ah engayaavathu suthikitu irukum both, Results Announced, Announced nu inbox nirambi valiyum… Its a sign of the impending bad/good news! Konja nerathula varusaya calls ah varum! Anna University Results eppvume ippadi thaan varum!

Website open panurathuku munnadi enaku therincha saami paatu ellam paaduven… And i pray to God(all the Gods that i can remember of at that time!) And lo, the Results r for me to see!!! This time around i was a bit relaxed, hoping to clear… Coz, it was said that No one will fail during last semester and i had done fairly well(thanks to the morning free time)!

So, after exams i roamed around with ma frnds… We went to a Bosch Interview… Thats a different Story, I’ll tell U about it later… And frm Coimbatore i had to leave to ma Native Place to attend a few weddings… But as you all know… Holidays are Enticing only for the First Week or so! After that, it is No Longer such a Novelty to Rise Late and have Little to Do…!

After getting back to Chennai, we shifted our place… It was here that i felt very bored… Sanjay and Naveen were gonna attend an interview at Allsec the next day… So, i thought… Enna da, ellarum velaiku poranga, naan mattum inga veetla vetti ah kuppa kottikitu iruken!!! Infosys la vera kanduka maatengraanga! I got placed in Infosys on March 2007, and they havent called me yet! It looked like they’ll call me after 1-2 months, maybe in August. So, instead of sitting at home and do nothing, i could work in a call centre and improve ma comm! Also, i cud make do with some money! While i was thinking that, i got a call frm Sutherland(i had attended one job fair, jus out of curiosity during my final year, there i got shortlisted in Sutherland… Frm then on they have been bugging me to come to Santhome… I had been saying some silly reasons for not able to come there… Like i have arrear exams, i am going on a world tour, i am sick!) This time around, since i had made up ma mind to join some call centre, i agreed to meet that HR the next day(18th June 2008)!
