The good, the bad and the ugly (abt placements)

It wud seem rather funny to read abt placements and interviews in this month of september....but wid ppl like me, these kinda situations are quite common. But whats uncommon is the way I mess wid these situations as well.

I applied for companies in elitmus. Waited long for jobs. Somehow my lappy and luggage were left with relatives and I got back home after attending a couple of marriages (one in hyd and another in vja) on the same day. Now I thought of attending adiance and reliance in coll and booked tickets. After I landed here in DA-IICT, I chk my mails only to see tht one company called for interview and the deadline for accepting it expired just the previous day!!!
----------------------------------------------------
I attended Adiance and they dint call for the interview after having a face to face talk, couple of questions and viewing my resume. These are the only factors they consider to shortlist for the interview and no written test.
----------------------------------------------------
We were told tht Reliance was coming on 8th and 9th. But they came on 7th and conducted the written test. We came to know abt it on 7th nite. Poor Arun!! He came all the way frm Hyd on flight to attend Reliance.
----------------------------------------------------
The next day morning, we talked to placement officer and he was hopeless. We gaveup our hopes but just after tht, he showed us a guy (later we came to know tht he is the HR) and told to ask him. He talked to us and allowed us to sit for the interview and said tht he wud arrange for the test later if necessary. The interview went good. It was a HR interview!! I thought I would leave on 11th happily as the results were expected to come in 15 days and tht we wud be informed the next day if they want to conduct the test.
----------------------------------------------------
As we dint get the mail, we contacted the placement officer and he told tht the results wud be out on 11th mostly and if not we need to meet him again the next day. So I cancelled my ticket and booked one for 15th. Donno what happens next...
----------------------------------------------------
No matter how it is, how it was and how it will be, its my life and I choose it :)

routine lo variety

It happened so in the midnight of the late June of 2006 (er....dont mind if the sentence construction is bad) That after chatting with Abhay, I started writing this thing. Had a lot of work to do.....RI, GATE preperation, CAT preperation....what not....the list is not a small one.....but everyday, as I wakeup, I feel the same thing....LAZINESS!!! SO, the obvious result is bore bore bore... Here are a few ways we found out to get out of it.... -> Watch movies....yeah...thats the top of the list. Maybe u think its the routine way. But u are mistaken! We watch movies starting from Veerabhadra, Bangaaram to any extent....expecting mere comedy. The list is getting worse day by day -> Chatting.....Well, that counts to a minimum of 3 hours of my day. Half of it accounts to my friends out of station....and the rest to those even from the same wing as mine....and mostly done during late nights. The reason? too lazy to go there at that time.....and for some reason, it relieves from the fee...

Hectic Week

This week is totally hectic for me!!! To be frank, I worked sincerely only this week. This somehow reduced my boredom. Now lemme tell u a small funny incident that took place just a few days ago. This is just a sample of how we ppl are mentally developed and truely reflects the IQ :P I was trying to study in my room at around 8 PM. Raghu wanted to watch a film. So he asked me to switch off the lights. I gave a helpless expression showing the book in my hands. Then he gave an expression as if he suddenly realised that I wud get disturbed. Then he turned to SitaRam who is sitting next to me, and asked him-"He is studying naa, y to disturb him....u go and switch off the lights". Without giving a second thought, Sita went and switched off the lights. Raghu and I looked at each others faces and could'nt control our laughter. Sita was still not able to figure out the reason. Later he too laughed when I explained him.

One pleasant morning

******ONE PLEASANT MORNING****** I went out to meet my friends at the juice stall(our fav. meeting place). Asusual, we chatted for about half an hour and then when we were about to get back, one pretty gal passed tht way. So cute she was, I asked myself this is no dream. right?? As she went on her scooty, I cud'nt see her for even a minute. As she is passing by, blinding white light came upon. (The same was M.S explains his ad concept to venky in Vasu) All the while when seeing her, I could hear a song playing in the background. Even after that scene, the song was still playing so clearly. But from where????? And in the mean while, one of my friends started tapping me. I woke up rubbing my eyes, and Raghu was trying to wake me up. And ofcourse, the song is coming from the PC speakers. Damn! I shud have realized...from where else can it be heard? Actually that was a slow song with quite good music. The songs these days come up with nasty beats and crazy lyrics...takes u days...no no...
