BACK WID A BANG

an update after a very long time. i don't expect u to have waited wid bated breaths for this coz am no J.K.Rowling in an hotel gulping away champagne and trying to finish off a series of harry potter books. jus a
casual bored guy trying to feed his thoughts on others.
i got placed in isro. now that may be old news for many and half of u wud be really tired of me telling dat again and again.but i really see this as a sort of win after a race wid lotta hurdles.
i shall not give u d details and stop u from reading this blog. d interview came as a welcome relief coz i din't really want to join maruti wer i got placed thro campus. some jinx seemed to have been placed on me in clg. no company allowed me to sit for placements(or rather the placement cell of our clg, i hate dem for dat). the only interview for which i honestly prepared wanting to get placed was isro. the reasons being twofold
1. i din't wanna join maruti

2. i wanted to do some research(seems odd isn't it?) rather than filling excel sheets in maruti(for ur info dat is wat GETs do in any automobile company for dat matter).
the interview was rather harsh to say d least. ten ppl around me trying to drill me for any mistakes i make. a single slip of tongue and they wud have u by the collar. probably i did well, though that was not wat i thot wen i finished with the interview.
then came the most agonising period of waiting. i was in a dilemma. a fifty fifty situation rather. on one hand a job i din't want to take, on the other hand a uncertain job the result of which was painfully taking longer than i expected. to add to my woes my family was least supportive. my dad wanted me to go for maruti and get settled. he was carried away by the money factor. but i din't budge. Hyundai lent me a helping hand then. there was a interview going on there for GETs and i persuaded dad saying dat i wud rather be in hyundai closer home. he seemed to take it. hyundai result is now positive but so is isro.
still sitting vetti( jobless wid a job in hand) at home waiting for the isro medical test. praying to god not to spoil my plans in isro. lotta my frenz already in companies but doing no work as it is. sorry no offence meant( not u kaly or surs or alagu... no no).
so i hope nobody throws stones at me for this very chaaaaaaaaaat blog. after al this is all u can manage sitting at home,
vetti!!!!!!!

Ha... Regarding the med test.. Karthikeyan(Chemical, alias Krish) is joining TCS after 'failing' the medical test for CPCL... His med test was fine for TCS he says, but became not so fine(he doesn't know why) for CPCL.. Anyway hope your's turns out to be good.

As for the blog, it is fine. Like all blogs should be. Moody.
