@!# NEW YEAR 2010 is knocking on the door &*%^

Every new thing has importance in life. New Job, New car, New shirt, New Shoes, New Specs & many more new thing. But the New Year has so much importance. It comes up with a full of joy, hope & so many new things. Some of us already planned for New Year vacations in goa, puri, disco & many more happening places. Some start with the resolutions & many more things.

I am also thinking about New Year & not different. I am also thinking that this new year I will achieve that thing, this thing & flan-flan. Hope by God’s grace I will surely achieve those. Those things satisfy my materialistic wishes. But once I thought that, why I am not thinking about to serve for country, to serve the society, to help the needful peoples. With in a second, I got the answer. I am not caring about these things. I am whirled in my materialistic wishes, so that I neglect the main purpose of life.

The smile on the face of a man, when you give him some money/food who was food hungry since 10 days, after seeing the food. The blessings of the old man, when you help him to cross the busy traffic.Apart from the two above things, there are so many things which satisfy your soul. I think the fake challenges of our life materialistic wishes almost made us a machine. A machine which provides only the work what assigned to him. Just remember the day when you see the sunset & sunrise. You will cross infinite of seconds in past. but you can’t get that. In my college days in engineering, I usually went to the terrace of hostel in morning & evening. Every day I was nourished with those golden rays & blessings of SUN GOD. But now rat race in professional life has snatched every thing from my life, which satisfies my soul. I think many more people feel that. I know the change is the part of life. But the change which will hamper your soul, satisfaction & life. I think this is not a change, this is a disaster. This will destroy you.

So peoples my oath is that, apart from my professional life I will create some opportunities, time & space. In those moments, I will do work to satisfy my soul. From these mantra, I will create my plan. Oh God Please provide me some moments which will satisfy my inner soul & materialistic wishes both. I want to maintain balance between my life.

Now by the words of Late Shri Harivansh Rai Bachchan, I want to give you the message "Please plan your new year, which gives the balance in your life."

Nav Umang,Nav Tarang,
Jivan Ka Nav Prasang,

Naval Chhah,Naval Rah,
Jivan Ka Nav Pravah,

Geet Naval,Preet Naval,
Jivan Ki Riti Naval,
Jivan Ki Niti Naval,
Jivan Ki Jeet Naval.

BY--- Late Sri Harivansh Rai Bachchan

With these words, wishing you Happy & Prosperous New Year 2010!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EXPERIENCE OF CAT & MOUSE :-)

My alarm rang around 6:35 morning. By half heart, I woke up. But once I left the bed, the only one thing was revolving around my mind & that is none other than CAT'09. I reached at the Test center around 7:55 AM, as they have mentioned to reach before 8:00 am. I was on time. Due to 10 days window & 2 slots on everyday, the rush was not at the center, which always happened in CAT exam. Around 8:20 they had given permission to enter in to the Pavilion of CAT 09. They have seized every thing (watch,mobile,handkerchief,purse & everything what you can imagine), then I left only with CAT admit card, Identity proof,CAT voucher & Indian currencies. Thank GOD!!!!!!!

After entering in to pavilion, I went for Biometric Finger scan, Web cam photo shoot & a little bit verifications. When the Prometric guys are doing such things, I was thinking about How Technology has changed the life of person & being a Software developer, why I am leaving the Technology & moving toward the Management. HA HA HA ......but soon I recycled my thoughts very rapidly in to Bin & press SHIFT+DEL so that it remove permanently from the System.

Around 8:40 am, I have assigned a system for the test. A beautiful girl sat just next to me, but when your life is on cliff then surely your mind can't divert from these beauties. Test was from 10:00 am, so I decided to take a nap, just bowed my head in the desk of system & went in to sweet dreams. But due to some formalities from the prometric guys, I woke up again on 9:35 am. One of instructor came & guide us for the test & system. As prometric guys were very helpful. I was praying to GOD that please at least in my terminal, there is not any restart, technical problems. God heard me & my test has went a smooth ride. Questions were contain average difficulty level, but a slight tricky ones. My coolness & calmness helped me a lot. I was going through the questions one by one & taking lead from the competitors. As I have managed only 38 out of 60, but I was satisfied.
When I came & searching the response of others on PAGALGUY, I found that average attempt rate is around 40-42. This time you can't cross check the answers & get a approx percentile from Coaching institutes. B'coz test was online & questions hadn't be given to us. So just waiting for the 22 Jan 09, when results will be out. Hope that I will get through the hurdle.....

Let's see what the future hold for me in his bag.

Last evening B'fore The D day Of CAT...............

With the hope & fear in heart, the D day arrived. Now my mind has been full of thoughts for the next day. The Computer CAT is now different. Apart from the nervousness of CAT Q paper surprise, this time many more things are vital just like, restarting of Terminal, Pass word not accepting, server crash, Virus attack & many more computer threats. As the demons arrive near to you, either you will ran away from there & surrender your self in the hand of demons Or face bravely the demons. Why surrender yourself in the hand of demons like CAT? I choose the second option of facing the CAT bravely. Let's see this time how CAT will surprise me........

Just like Arjuna of MAHABHARATA, I have armed myself with Quant formulas, DI concepts & Verbal awareness. But I am missing the savior like Krishna, who helped Arjuna in the Battle of Mahabharata..... So for reliving from that thing, I had set my laptop wallpaper as :---

When God Leads you to the edge of the cliff,Trust him fully. Only one of the two things happen; Either he will catch you when you fall or he will teach you How to fly.

Now I surrender my self in the hand of Vasudeva, Hey VASUDEV please give me what I deserve not what I want. I have always full trust on you, Now once upon my Ship is in the middle of river, please take care for that, how I have bestowed with the blessings of yours in my 25 years of life, Please take care for me for my rest of the life.

Now I will go for a sound sleep in night with a little bit fear & a lot of Hope in my heart. Come again tomorrow evening with the experience of CAT & MOUSE...........
