Note From A So Called “Successfull Person”

Filed under: Uncategorized — mridulgeo @ 2:55 pm

hey folks…

 

writing smethin after a very very long time.infact dnt knw what caused that gap.as usual a creative dryness was there bt more than that i ws busy.along with ma studies i ws carryin sme responsibilites durin the past months,like ws headin a relegious youth organization KCYM ,ws doin a television show called panorama and stuffs like that.so a big share of ma time went to these ventures and as a result the process of writing got limited to writing scripts for panorama.but today smethin deep inside ma heart urges me to write smethin.i read smewhere that,whenever u r down emotionally u’ll be a at a creative high.and that seems true in ma case.

 

for the last few days i’m goin thru smethin that could be called as an emotional trauma.heavy wrd naa…so i felt that if i write smething then ma mind would become little free.so i thot i would write the things that are causin me a concern  for the last few days.

 

 

Last day when i was chattin with a gud frnd of mine,we recalled sme events that tuk place durin the first year of ma clg.actually those events led to a temporary break up in d relnshp that i had with a set of frnds in ma class.mistake ws mine n i terribly regret abt those happenings.by god’s grace by the end of ma 2nd yr,again we all became in good touch but as nt gud as it ws and i dont deserve it to be.so when we were chatting we talkd abt these things and i expressed ma regret too.at that point of time she said,”mridul,you are a very successfull person.so dont worry about those things that happend,and we’ll get back our lost days of frndshp also.”.with that note our conversation got over for that day..

 

but today i was thinkin “Am I A Succesfull Person?”.for an outsider i am..coz i’ve got marks,a job in hand,a great family,a big circle of frns,contacts,fame,limelight,skills,talents..what more someone cud ask for.but are these things determine the success of a person ?? that question haunts me “Am I A Succesfull Person?”.i lack somethin..i do lack somethin…and it is nothin but a GOAL !! A Lakshyaa…Some cause for what i should work for.

 

today i talkd with a girl who is a successfull air hostess.she is of my age only,but she is earning 100 times more than what i earn…she had visited many countries.but where i’m..where is mridul george who is considered as a successfull person.i’m stil in ma muvattupuzha..(ofcrz i do luv this place)..dat girl had a dream,a goal and she achieved it in the best way she can…

 

take the case of my best frnd..she has got a goal in her life..to become a civil servant snd she is working for that.she knows what she will be doin after her engineering.

 

a cuzin of mine,who ws just an average student always durin his studies,will be flyin to newzeland nxt month for his higher studies.

 

still mridul is simply sittin here,without knowin what he shld do after his studies…

by god’s grace i’ve got a job in ma hand..as a s/w engg in one of the best companies of the world..in a cmpny that has got more than a lakh employess..but whats the point in becomin one in a lakh or one in a million…is thats the place where a so called ’successfull person’ shld end up…i dnt think so..i’m not a successfull person…

 

 

by april-may,ma studies wil got over…and i’ll b d biggest loser in ma class..someone who used to say big big things,but never reached smewhere…smeone who nver enjyd life..but pretended to enjoy

 

.what did i do in last four yrs..showed sme attitude..didnt stand with ma frnds at a point of time where i had to..left the scene makin ma part safe..

 

.almost every one says “mridul wil become this,he wil bcme that”.but today i fear that i would end up with out becomin anyone..jst as an unmentioned part of history…

 

for the first time in ma life..i’m runnin on such a low level of self confidence !!!

as i use this space for writn abt ma clg days,its nt fair to leave this post without mentionin abt ma 2007 clg life…ie the 4th n 5th semesters of ma B.Tech Pgm…i mentioned abt the 4th sem in the last post…as its give there,it ws a disaster…in every sense… then came ma 5th semester..it started in september..as the 4th sem was an utter crap,i was lookin forward to the 5th sem in all sense…n indeed it turned out to be smethin spl..the best semester till date…in all the way..the subjects were cool…the faculty was superb…n many rockin things too took place in the last sem..like the rebellious one day IV….the elections…the re-union of our class to a single entity….small but some serious fights n so on…different frm the 4th sem,i did the tests well…got very good internal marks…n today the 5th sem uty exams got over…it too went well,didnt cause much pblms like the previous one…2 more practicals are there..it’ll take place only in the nxt mnth..so rt nw am in a vacation…

this is all abt ma 2007…it did teach me a lot of things…met new people…got new frnds..the old ones became closer….new activites..new commitments …n at this very moment am lookin fwd to this 2008..lot of things are waitin…lot more xams…placements…events….

as Keats  said..

“Heard melodies are sweet,

but those unheard are sweeter:”

hope 2008 will be more rocking..more happening…

the viswajyothi days-4

Filed under: College, Exams, Life, Results, the viswajyothi days — mridulgeo @ 8:03 am

2 weeks bak,we had big voltage fluctuation in our line and guess what happend??? my modem got damaged and it ws given for replacement..things didnt end there..after some days my computer too went out of order.so u might b able to imagine ma condition…from 24 X 7 computin to a complete desert like situation..it ws exhaustin..my modem got replaced last day and nw i’m wrkin in ma cuzin’s laptop…

cmon..crap..what am writin here..i ws supposed to write about smethin else..what ws that…mmm…yes..got it..abt ma results…results of ma last semster were out last day..n u knw what,this time too i cleared all d papers…god’s grace..yes,i really meain it..this time it ws d real grace of god..u knw why..i’ll tell u..

last semester,ie the 4th sem ws a complete crap.to b honest,i didnt ‘ve interest on any of the subjects..all d subjects were borin..one exception ws oops,it ws quite interesting..as d majorioty subjects were not interesting,spendin time in class ws quite an absurd thing.still i had to attend d classes as attendance is a big thin in graduatation courses.still i managed to bunk class officially..in the form of duty leaves..and in the last sem,we had a jaundice attack in our clg,and clg ws closed for two weeks.but many of d vjcetians includin me got affected with jaundice after dat two weeks…so again i lost many classes,tests n internal xams..literally i didnt ‘ve any idea on any subject..ma mind ws completely blank by the end of d sem..for many papers i didnt ‘ve proper notes or anythin..

between this,another big thin happend..i got a re-internal exams..n the time table n portions for that xams looked smethin like the mgmt ws takin on a revenge on those who didnt attend the regular internal xams…we had two papers and each day,n we had to study 4 modules of each paper..so total 8 modules a day..u can guess what happend..my performance for all the papers were disastrous..and as a result,my sessional marks became a catasrophie for me…i ws under sessional for subjects…u knw,sessional marks for mathematics paper ws jst 26 marks..that mean i had to score 49/100 for the uty xam to get a pass mark..n d funniest thing was,i never got more than 45 marks for mathematics paper in any of the previous semesters..i cleared those papers only bcoz i had gud internal marks in all those semesters…so this time,i ws sure dat i’ll get a supplimetary for atleast 2-3 papers..still i decided to give a try…i called ma frnd shyam,who is gud in mathematcis and asked whether he cud help me,he readily agreed and i spend 2-3 dayz in his hme..studied mathematics..many times i wondered by seein sme portions,that i ws seein all those stuff for the first time…mathematics went like that… but there were 7 more papers…

i seeked the help of a very cls n bst frnd of mine for the other 7 subjects..she too readily agreed to help me out..she came to the clg durin d study holidays for helpin me..we studied together sittin in the library..she taught me the portions which i didnt knw..some of my other classmates were also there in d clg durin those holidays,they too helped me…and by this time,with the help n prayers of ma family n frnds, i became quite confident to face the xams..still had a tension in mind..and d xams started,it went quite well..after the theory xams,we had our lab xams…i did well for one lab,other one ws quite tough..so by the end of all d xams,i came to a conclusion that,i might get a back log for atleast one theory n one lab..

mnths passed n last week our results came..as i mentioned int the beginnin ,i cleared all the 8 papers !!!!,,still i dnt knw,hw it happend..ws under sessional for 3 papers..one lab ws quite disastrous..still if i managed to clear all the papers,its a miracle…a miracle by the almigty…”thank you very much” will b the lightest expression to xplain my gratitude to all those good hearts,who spend their time,energy n intellect to help me,to make me strng enough to face the exams,to motivate me to success…

still as the poem says…

the woods are lovely dark and deep,
but i’ve promises to keep,
and miles to go before i sleep,
and miles to go before i sleep !

yes,i’ve miles n miles to go..a lot more xams are there..lot more results are there..but this result n the journey to this result will always remain very very special for me !!!

GOD,TUSSI GREAT HO !!!!!

the viswajyothi days-3

Filed under: College, Life, the viswajyothi days — mridulgeo @ 5:37 pm

am bak again after a week’s gap…this time am goin to write abt the college union inaguration ceremony tht ws held last week…on 13/11/2007.

you might b thinkin wats so special abt this ceremony rt…???it ws special for me.coz after comin to viswajyothi,this ws the first pgm that i watched from beginnin to end with a free mind.yes,i mean it,free mind.this time i didnt ‘ve any pgms,items or any responsibilties.i ws a mere spectator this time.n i really enjoyed dat..i ws free to criticize,i was free to comment on the pgms ,in short i ws a free bird der…so naturally a question will b comin to ur mind..what i was doin durin the earlier pgms..rt??? i will tell u…

the first pgm that took place after ma arrival to viswajyothi ws our IT Association’s Inagru..it happend jst sme weeks after our arrival.but as many of ma seniors who conducted d pgm knew me before..as a result,the duty of delevirin d vote of thnx came to me…first performance in vjc…in front of d staff n seniors..i ws tensed…so that pgm went like that…then came the xmas celeb…as all our seniors was on study leaves..only we were der..we had sme classwise events.as i ws the rep dat time,i ws busy with those events..practise sessions n all…dat ws d lst event that took place durin our 1st yr…

in the second yr..inter collegiate tech fest BODHI came..initially i didnt ‘ve much responsibilities..but all of a sudden i ws selected into d comparin team n got busy wid all that stuff..then came DHRISHYA,our arts fest(i will write an entire post about dhrishya later..),i ws the arts club sec that time..busy might b simplest wrd to describe my condition at dat time..then by the end of 2nd yr,clg day came…again ws in the core team dat time..d result ws,i didnt enjoy d pgm…by that time my term as d arts club sec n union mem came to an end..

now am nt a rep,nt an union member…so when i heard d news of this union inagru func,i ws really excited..excited by d fact that for d first time, am goin to see n enjoy a pgm in vjcet…n i did that..i saw the whole pgm..n i enjoyed d shw…and the show ws gr8..had sme small small pblms…but as a whole it ws superb !!!

the viswajyothi days- 2

Filed under: College, Life, the viswajyothi days — mridulgeo @ 5:25 pm

yooo…today ma series xams got over.it ws quite ok..didnt cause much pblms as expected.anyway am nt here to write abt ma performance in the sereis.but to write about a little thought which came to my mind while i ws comin back after the xam.in our class the fair sex are the majority and among them most of are hostel inmates.so some of my frnds,today decided to go for an outin to celebrate the end of exams.so they too were with me in the bus.they were a group of 8 girls.i just noticed them,and my mind went back to my initial periods in viswajyothi..durin those days,due to some communication gap and also bcoz of the new atmoshpere,we had many groups,no, gangs in our class.(gangs of viswajyothi,hmm,sounds like “gangs of newyork ” naaa)..same was the case with boys and girls.in short our class was quite divided…n this gang war was quite prominent among the fair sex.the 8,who were with me in the bus,were the members of different gangs @ dat time,and literally was in a state of enemity…

but today when i saw those 8 goin together,i felt very happy and i said to myself,”everythin,all enemities,differences,can be and will be solved by time”.let these people be a role model for everyone.i personally know and ‘ve experienced the differences between them.but today they became so close and friendly…kudos to them

remember,a single smile from ur side,a single word from ur side..it can and it will solve the differences…it will melt the huge iceberg..try to understand everyone..

the viswajyothi days-1

Filed under: College, Life, the viswajyothi days — mridulgeo @ 12:19 pm

so here am starting the series “the viswajyothi days”

many of you might be thinking whats this “viswajyothi” is.thts the name of my college.i’m a student of Viswajyothi College Of
Engineering And Technology a.k.a VJCET.before startin the series let me tell u,am nt plannin to write more about my past in
vjcet.more preference will b given to the present and future.while describin abt the present and future obviously past will come
in between.let the series begin with how i reached viswajyothi…i did in my schoolin in Nirmala Schools…yes,i said
skools.bcoz i studied in three schools under the banner NIRMALA.while i ws doin my +1 and +2,i ws in a dilemma,that what
should i do after schoolin.my tastes were dispersed in mainly two fields…the first one was technology,to b precise computers
and the second field was media and journalism…but due to some reasons and some advices from some eminent persons i
decided to keep ma second interest side(but the thing is,still i’m passionate about that field) and i decided to go with
technology..as i was not in a condition to stay away from home,my choice for doin engineerin was obviously vjcet which was
jst 9 kms away from ma hometown and also vjcet was/is considered as one of the best self financin engineerin colleges in the
state…and one interesting thing is that,before the establishment of vjcet,ie before engineerin studies became this much
popular and available,the usual path which was followed by the majority of students from ma town and neighbourin places was

Nirmala Junior School…Nirmala High School….Nirmala College and so on…

but by the time i finished schoolin,Predegree was stopped and as a result Nirmala Higher Secondary School came in between
and along with Nirmala College,Viswajyothi also came in that list…a huge number of present VJCETians are alumini of
Nirmala Institutions…and so am i…

i knw that this post is not interestin..but ma life in viswajyothi or so called “viswajyothi days” was and is and i hope,will be
interestin..

in short,this is how i ended up in viswajyothi…and on 17th of august 2005,my 4 yrs of so called “engineerin studies” kick
started….
