I am in the college library...12:37 pm ..Just hanging around till 2:20 pm waiting for my interview..I just look around...Spring break is over..Classes have started full throttle.But when u look arnd u know our generation has been googled!..The serious types are proactively finishing up some projects with help from google..the procrastinators are googling at the last minute to finish up assignments..Some are just whiling away time logging into orkut , facebook etc etc with their google profiles or simply chatting in Gtalk..Boyfriends and girlfriends romancing or frens catching up..Some are updating their websites in GoogleApps..while others are trying to get cheap deals with Google Checkout..Most of us in college who don't have cars are just hinging on Googlemaps trying to figure their way around.And some like me are just passing time writing a blog about google with a google login .Arent' we just googled ? :)..Three cheers to the Google generation..

Wow !
I have been meaning to post in my blog space for a long long time now...Phew ! I really wanted to keep a track of my "American Adventure " (as Ralf my colleague called it :))..Maybe something like an American Diary..well it has been more than two months that i have been here now..So far so good.I just landed up here all alone.People thought I was bonkers.I thought I was following my heart.Why an MS now, they asked?Why not now?It perfectly makes sense to me.I want it and I am gonna do it.I dunno where i would land up but my heart knows it is right."What about marriage"?What about it ? It will happen when it has to happen.It is not a task that needs to be done and shoved out of the way.It just has to click right.Well that z how i am.Almost everyone i met seemed to disagree.And in after these two months today i seemed to have the best American experience.And believe you me it was on youtube.Ain't it funny ?Well life is funny.There was this amazing speech by Steve Jobs.About Apple,life and death and nothing made more sense than anything in life than every word he said.He said just follow your heart and instinct.They seem to know better than you where you should be.Keep looking and don't settle.You can't join the dots looking way forward but only when you look back you can make the connection.Starting out as a young UG in engineering i was lost.Something close to my heart was missing.But when I look back today it all makes sense.Today I won't have my life any other way.There are no regrets.I have left everything behind..my comfort zone , my secure life in search for something I feel is out there.I am gonna get it.The mantra is keep looking.Do something you really love.It will eventually fall into place and one day you would just look back and connect dots of your karma.Just don't think about the results.Just stay committed, hang on there,it always does work out...
