u-turn decision
life's taking a u-turn .
after all the discovery channel watching as a kid and researching on the silicon valley entrepreneurs in high school , and reading michael crichton's science high books , and american sitcoms tat make u feel like an alien in India ... I tgt doin a MS in states wud be cool ... and wit an undergrad degree from an unknown coll , MS seemed to be more of an escape route , from hell to the life of kevin arnold / cahndler bing .
but now i'm having second thoughts .
for one its too cliched . half of india is in states doin MS , just for the heck of it , not cuz they are into science or they are cool or anything . mofo indians .
and now even if i wanted to do a MS , getting into a good school is almost impossi wit my credentials .
But apart from these reasons , i'm having some internal doubts myself .
can i really study more of this theory shit AGAIN ?!
everything is so abtruse and virtual .
for the past six yrs , all i've been reading is wierd ass propositions and theories , that sometimes seem too obvious and other times too hard to visualize .
wen will i get to hold tools and work on the nuts ?
now i know for sure that , experience teaches more than books or a degree .
suddenly the MS thing has lost its charm .
----
it wud have bin great if the nuts/bolts had been in nasa or google or yahoo or some product development company , but lesser mortals like us will prob never make it there !
for now its going to be some IT job with a million other creatively dead robots .
but u gotta do wat u gotta do .
---
it amazes me ... to start off wit, human-life was jus about food and sex ; and now we've complicated it so much .
---
I learnt abt this new theory tat brings some relief to my situation .
" Dont do what u LIKE for a living , cuz u mite end up hating it "
so guess i'm going to self teach meself the interesting science stuff and work on a diff domain altogether for a living .

hey i read ur blog after all! n i have loved it as usual, i lou d way u write n what u write.... u personalise stuff, i just realised u r an open book. u r confused, scared n dream just like the rest of us. butu dont complicate ur life. u like things simple n u keep them dat way. good for u dude. n btw whatever u do u ll always achieve what u wanted to, cause u never stop learning n reading things dat interest u. so u ll reach there sooner or later.
