Hello readers, i am in deep shit and i can't get out of it. How are you?
To my new readers- you are probably reading this bcoz you are sick of me asking you whether you've read my blog: don't worry, you are not alone! Half the college is going through the same thing. One junior hopped to the men's room to avoid me- stupid kid, should have used ladies's room, where i couldn't have followed him!!
Don't blame it all on me; no one ever said that i am good at anything before i started this blog. Then came the people who'd say they liked my blog but won't follow it for some reasons! And, to top it all, some of you went to Ishan Sharma to compliment him on his blog!! Wake up people, I am not Ishan Sharma. When Ishan Sharma dances, people clap. When Eshan Kanwar dances, God weeps and it rains (i call it rain dance- for more info click here). So i am hunting for people who follow this blog, and if my quest proves to be futile, i might stop this altogether. On the brighter side, i won't bug you guys anymore.
Its hard to make people read something, but its even harder to make them laugh. One needs to have a crazy story to begin with. Luckily, i have such a story- i call it my life. Some of it is written on the right side of you screen, rest will be revealed later in appropriately censored parts.
The Incognito think-tank is looking for a new logo- the footprints will be replaced as soon as we find something appropriate- and no body parts this time! If you have some idea, draw it, take a picture of it and mail it to me-i'll make sure it gets to the design team. Wait a sec, do we have a design team? Never mind, i'll keep your design safe and won't try to pass them on as my own, i promise;)
Since we had nothing else to do, i joined edc and cdc. Now i m addicted to exemption. And Chautani mam is eagerly awaiting my return to the classes. I'll have my last will ready before i enter her class next time. The others teachers seem just happy to get rid of me. They would have kicked me out anyway.
While the entrepreneurship Development cell is a race against deadlines, the placement cell, now renamed Career Development Cell recently made me overcome one of my deepest fear- the fear of public speaking. Here's the story-
Scene 1: the summery;
I was late for a meeting, and i missed the most part of an announcement asking for volunteers. As i went in and looked around, i saw a cute Cse girl with her hand raised. So.... i raised my hand too, oblivious to the fact that it involved stage handling.
Scene 2: the life changing sentence;
Cute gal: You wanna start?
Me: aa..ummm..aa..
Cute gal: You okey?
Me: yes, i m just nervous. i have never faced a mike before.
Cute gal: Ohh.. Dont worry, i'll handle the start, u just finish it. Okey?
Me: aa...ummm..aa..
Cute gal: Don't worry, you'll be fine.
Me(visibly shaking): okk..
Cute gal(on mike): Good morning to...blah blah blah....
She went on for a while, then stepped back, waiting for me to take the mike.. i hesitated.. She gave me a stare, her smile intact.. the whole convention hall was looking at me.. Bhalla Sir raised an eye brow.. i nudged her.. she wouldn't move.. i couldn't breathe..
And then, precisely at that moment, when time seemed to have stopped and the only sound was the deafening beating of my heart, when my knees felt like giving up, when a single step seemed an unconquerable feat, i stepped up to the mike and said the sentence that would change my life forever:
"I request Bhalla Sir to please come on stage"
And everything disappeared. All the fear, the nervousness vanished, leaving behind a tranquility and an contentment of having achieved something. A simple sentence, you would say. Not for me.
Nowadays, i find each day of mine to be a learning experience. So even though my friend's car window was smashed today with my laptop inside it (mysteriously,it wasn't stolen), even though i am way behind on most of my subjects, even though i couldn't think of anything to write when i started this post, even though i have too much on my plate right now, i still look back at the last few months and see the things i have learned, friends i have made, people i have met- and it all seems worth it.
I'll write lighter next time. Tonight, i just had to tell tell someone how i feel right now. Thank you.
Enjoy every mess you'r a part of.. And don't forget to follow me if you like any of my posts..
Cheers..!!
