Passing time is not bad as you think

It's 11th September, 2016. I don't know how 9 months passed already in 2016. Looking back at 2016, things have changed so much in this year. I am unsure of my way ahead. So far, all I have done is not to mess up with things that I have already achieved but I did fail exceptionally in the entry exams and motivating myself to achieve something bigger. 5 years passed since I have joined Deloitte and all these years I was happy except for this year.

One thing that I didn't learn during my schooling or college days for that matter is that nothing that you think is permanent and you have to learn it hard way in profession. Everyone will be working hard for their career and always think about their own families. People switch companies and try to pursue onto something that they think will benifit them and will loose touch with you. I have learned this over the last 5 years. All you can do is, progress with life.Anyways, I didn't start writing this keeping that in mind, I am just typing whatever that comes to my mind. It is Sunday today and time 7.00 PM, Nelson was here in room since afternoon. We had good meal and played couple of Dota matches.I have put my clothes in washing machine, but because we were playing, I didn't bother much about anything.

Yesterday and today, I woke up little late 11.30 AM in the  morning as I was sleeping late but tomorrow is a working day and day begins at 7.00 AM in the morning and goes on till 8.00 PM. The new project MRC is actually taking all of my time and I can do nothing about it. I always wanted to work not more than 10 hours in a day but I can't help this time hence I started to dislike the job that I am doing. If I think about it, it is the life of a S/W engineer to sit infront of PC for hours and as the world population is growing in numbers and every job in the world will force you to work hard and pay less because there are others outside waiting for it. Initially, I was naive to think that it is our prerogative to decide whether we extend working but no, it is not really the case. I am hoping that things will get better.

Other than that, There are nothing new that I think, I have to pen. Life is going on without any surprises or me trying to do anything big of my capabilities. I guess, I became lazy to even think about it.

Remembering Varma

 I don't remember exactly if it was late September or early October's that I first met Varma. He was very cool and seemingly smart person. I was recently hired and got to shadow under a person called Srinivas but I spent pretty much all my time along with Varma learning few things here and there for about 7 months after when I had to change projects. Although we met on multiple occasions at tea discussing about various topics not until 2020 March, when I first spoke with him about the opportunity that I found in Walmart and I needed help.  He was so helpful that I landed up with the Job without any difficulty. He guided me even with Salary negotiations and spoke with manager from his end and talked to me on the other end. He did pretty much all the hard work. It was difficult time for me with my job search then and then I said to Varma that I owe you one. Now I owe him one forever. I moved to the apartment where he used to live as he moved to new home that he bought but ever s...

Life Goes On

Very long time ago, I have stopped thinking about the journey that life is leading me into but now because of the way things are I reminiscent things that happened to me in the last 4 years, a time since I began my career in professional life. Many professionals who I consider as friends left the organization for various reasons yet I never felt a slightest of pain but these small things impacted the circle of people who I naturally hangout with during office times. The time has come were the group will have only one person and that would be me. This is the painful truth of being in a professional life, it is not difficult to make new friends but it is difficult to digest the fact that you miss the presence of your best friends, friends who know you very well. Isn't it funny how day by day nothing changes, but when you look back, everything is different...” This is how Life builds your past, things that you want to remember and things you do not want to forget will go ...

I wonder what I can be

Hey this is Pavan, I am just pumped up listening to "Travelling Soldier" song in a loop. This is a perfect Saturday morning as I woke up and checked the status of the last part of the computer that I ordered is arriving today. Had nuts, strawberries and tea for breakfast and listening to songs in my little room. Life is just beautiful. Tempo and mood is set way up by this motivational song, I wonder what I can be. I always believed in saying that show less than what you have and now that my little room set up is complete, I have to work twice hard as now in the times ahead to stay ahead of my lofty goal to be able to write a technical paper while satisfying my intellectual thirst. I gotta do it and I am going to do it. I have to come up with a systematic approach to be able to track the goals that I have set myself. I am planning on using the Agile to approach my goals but before that I have to come up with what I want to be as they say AS-IS to TO-BE path and things ...
