The road less tarred

Why the sudden fascination for blogging you ask? I have a resolution to keep, so there!

I will try my best not to justify the title as I most often end up doing. The question which comes to mind is that why people tend to move along the path which is defined, why not go through a path or a patch of sand to reach where you have to? That was a wee bit philosophical. Lets say, a career path. People would want to carry on the path of employment with a well paying company, the path more tarred, as compared to take the sandy path, the road less tarred, or self employment.

I have been over the past year been contemplating about this issue, and have serious intention in regard to the same. From nearly opening up a sheesha parlour in Scotland, to scrapping through plans of importing Guinness from Ireland to India, I've been giving it some thought. Also realised, that Maharashtrian people aren't enterprising to the extent Marwaris or Punjabi's are, more hard working no doubt, but less of a killer spirit! Can this be an option? I feel it is. The Maharashtrian in me yearns for security, lesser risk, a job, but the global me wants none of that. There is no way I can slog a 9-5 for peanuts. Work is in progress, more shall be reported.

There, my resolution of five blog posts a month stands. Please, consider the one line posts before this as posts, for this month at least! Damn, justified.

Now everything revolves around presentation, perception, perfection. The latter requires time, dedication, motivation. Former was the original. Thought flowed from mind to pen/keys. The problem is time, a lack thereof.  End of the written letter was spelled.

Update!

I am so sorry for the delay, I have officially lost track of time! The other day me and a friend were trying to remember what month it was! Anyway, its been really long I blogged, so just though I'll give you guys an update of what I've been upto. The first week of May was a real killer as we had to run through the presentation we prepared to show the company we were interning for and the professors ofcourse. That went well, better than I'd hoped for infact! Our team was awarded the best team prize for presentation and performance by te Management Department!! We will get a certificate and a book token at the Graduation Ceremony in December. The rest of May was a bore, there was my birthday, even that day spent working:( The last few weeks were spent searching for an apartment as our contract with the university accomodation was ending first week June. We did find a superb place, and after squabbles and misunderstandings, we finally rented it. I moved out of Kelvinhaugh Str...
