Happy "Independence Day"!

Today,we celebrated our 61st "Independence Day"..we all know why these special signs before and after the Independence Day!
No...we don't..before anybody comes to any conclusions as to what these actually mean...I would like to clarify that I used them because I don't think we're living in a free world!Again a very cliched statement as such but I won't brag about the smaller issues of poverty n illiteracy n all...everybody talks about them...I want to discuss something very personal!
What does freedom mean to me?Everyday except our National Holidays....it means ticking my fingers over the touchpad of my phone and sending out english alphabets having some sort of a meaning(for eg..FU! etc.etc.!;) to my friends every few minutes just to keep in touch n all!But come our National holidays and our telecom operators hike their SMS charges to Rs. 1.20 per text and then we get SMS'es telling us-"Be a responsible Indian and sms this deshbhakti text to 10 people!"...I mean WTF!You charge 10 times the money it costs me any other day and expect me forward such SMS'es!First of all,how much of a responsible Indian am I in the other 364 days of the year is the question that comes to my mind immediately!But,I just wonder how Indian is Mr. Arun Sarin or for that matter Mr. Sunil "Bharti" to be charging us "Gareeb log" exhorbitantly for sending just a few characters to our close ones!
I felt so handicapped today not because my MTNL charged me differential rates but because my friends were!!!!People must be wondering as to what kind of a leech I am to be writing about Rs.1.20 SMS'es but I just think it is unfair on us and I think the Ambani's too fight it for every 10p. that they charge us on each call!
Coming to the end...I don't think I've written this the way I wanted to but I've written too much to be deleting it in the end!So....... ;)

OMG!!!

Goodness me!Could I BE any happier is what my name says on Orkut...n so true it is...life has never been so good...I finally finally finally and finally got placed day before in Deloitte(one of the Top Four in the world in terms of consultancy!).Its a feeling which is hard to describe because one doesn't get a job everyday u see!I right now feel like I am one of the most lucky people in this whole world and God is showering all his blessings in a heap right now...although I wont say that he hasn't been kind enough in the past but this is something special...really really special! :-)
Been gettin wishes from all sides and angles and it feels so special and ecstatic!I now feel that I have almost anything that someone could ever wish for...some people might say that I'm exaggerating but its simply way too true I suppose!
ECSTATIC is the word that comes to my mind right now to describe my feelings...I hope god keeps blessing me and everyone around me in the same way!

Placements mania!

I shifted to hostel yesterday finally...i say finally because shifting to the hostel seems sucha pain in the ass.The procedure here is long and tedious and doesn't help u in any ways.Also,all my friends and fiends are in the hostels on the other side and I alone am in this hostel(C.V. RAMAN..I wonder why such stupid names for the hostels!)..but the best part is that this hostel now has 24 hr. net connectivity which keeps me hooked to it!
But back to the topic for which I started writing,the placements in our college have begun......life has become kinda worrisome now with the number of people getting placed in "grade B" companies droppin to all time lows.
But we being the Higher Souls didn't even care to sit for them...ya we the PRODUCTION ENGINEERS OF DELHI COLLEGE OF ENGINEERS..i mean thats heights of optimism in each one of us I tell you.Just 2 of 30 of us have got placed in TCS and the rest(including ME!) are still waiting for that elusive Dream Job paying each of us super handsomely for doin nothin at all!
L&t is the first I'm gonna sit for(pretty reluctantly though coz it pays low and its a core company!) but that too unprepared so my chances of getting are selected are like 1 in a quadrillion(i hope this quantity exists!) but I would still take my chances.Then I'm sittin for Deloitte(The Tax n Audit giant)..that company is what I'm looking forward to with some eagerness coz its one of those "Dream Companies".
We have the PPT's of both of them this afternoon so I now have to rush n get ready(i.e. take a bath at this time of the day!eeewwww!).Hoping for some nice action today to unfurl the tomorrow.
Bye

Welcome me!

Hi,
I had been thinking of entering this arena of blogging for quite some time now but just dint get inspired enough I suppose but thanks to a well-written blog of one of my friends,I finally got inspired took the Giant Leap forward!Hope that I scribble on it as often as I can and can keep everyone updated on whats happening In and around me although thats not the primary purpose of this but I suppose can't help it!
I stopped writing in any form since class 12 when we used to write those boring letters to the principal asking for a leave to "attend cousin's marriage"!But I suppose those were different kinda days n now with nothing much to do in life,I can write better letters in this blog! :) Bad jokes apart,I somehow do have a small penchant for writing although being the kind of lethargic person I am,I've never been able to hone this skill of mine.Maybe this blog will break those old shackles....
Can only think of this much right now to start with("Small penchant for writing"-My foot!) but I will come back with a Bang!!!!!
ME
