I’m sitting here at my office and getting bored. Today even my boss is out of office so thought I shall not work and do some time pass. The whole day I watched test match between India and South Africa. India didn't really do well. Today my friend Rahul is leaving to USA. So I will have to leave home early to meet him. I am just waiting for an installation to get finished so that I can start home.Okay, and, while I'm waiting for the installation to end and I leave home ...
As we get ready to welcome 2007, I'd like to take a quick look back at 2006, with a YEAR IN REVIEW.
I just wanted to memorize as what has happened in this year.
JANUARY 2006: I have decided that 2006 will be "my year of new things". My new year has started with a hike at my company. As it was a very nominal hike I wanted to resign the job but was waiting for the right time.
FEBRUARY 2006: I was very much excited as my H1 got approved and I would be getting ready for the visa.
MARCH 2006: That's right. I rock. I roll. I rock 'n' roll. I rule. This is what I thought before I went to visa. I got rejected and then started struggle at work and was totally dejected as I couldn't go to USA.
APRIL 2006: This was the month where I thought I will have to start afresh and go for a new job. I wasn't really confident if I could do it. I slowly started hating my job and my boss.
MAY 2006: Finally I gained some confidence and started going for interviews. I have attended many and have also went to Mumbai and Pune for offers. Finally to my wonder was successful in getting 5 offers in this month. Finally I decided I would join Intelligroup.
JUNE 2006: As we know life doesn't go the way we want it to go. There comes my sixth offer finally from CA. Immediately I resigned Goldstone. I got a very good offer from CA and proudly shown it to my previous manager. I gave a small lecture at Goldstone and finally on 21st June I joined CA.
Its all new environment new people so it was really exciting to work in such a place. Its a big company and I am going to work on the latest version of Business Objects.
JULY 2006: New place new work new people new manager. It was tough but was able to cope up.
AUGUST 2006: I was a bit low and also very happy as Kishore got his H1 approval and would be going to visa anytime.
SEPTEMBER 2006: Work was hectic and didn't really had time for anything else.
OCTOBER 2006: This is the month when Kishore got his visa. I am very very happy for him and at the same time very sad that he will be leaving me.
NOVEMBER 2006: This month was hectic at work. 2 projects have to be taken care. But then I enjoyed the work.
DECEMBER 2006: This is the month I guess I would say tough of 2006. Hectic at work, Kishore is leaving to USA, Rahul and Vijay came to India. I had real tough time to spend time for all these things. Bu then I succeeded spending time with friends, but I don't think I did justice to my job this month. Anyways thats how my year came to and end.
Guess what: where am I going for new year? I am going on a pilgrimage trip with my parents and family friends. Hope this trip on Godavari will be memorable as this will be my last trip with Kishore for next 2 years.
After going through all the months it sounds like I had a really boring year. But it wasn't boring. At all. We had a great time, didn't we? Oh, yeah--we had a great time.
