End of the "Glorious" days!

First things first.. I "FINALLY" got a job n will be starting work from tomorrow. More than the feeling of "Woo hoooo, I got a job", its the feeling of "Ah.. no more job search" thatz sunk in. So, just like all of us, and for everything good that happens, I thank God, my family & my close ppl. My friend asked me "how does it feel to be unemployed for the last day, after a job search for 8 months?" And here I'm to pen down on the same!

Honestly its a feeling of mixed emotions and thoughts to be in the last "glorious" day of this phase. One might be wondering how can being unemployed be correlated with something glorious? OK.. hang on a bit, n u l understand all of it. Yes,

• "I FEEL AWESOMEDDD" (Courtesy: Barney Stinson.. not the exact phrase that he uses, but think a bit, n u l get it!) to start my 1st full-time job in my life in the dream land of opportunities (US of A), in one of the most happening cities (Los Angeles.. though geographically I'm still in the Gator nation..ok.. FOR NOW.. tat sounds better..), and may be in one of the dream profiles one thinks to land into (strictly restricted to my domain.. not generic.. just FYI! )

• It feels "WOWW" that finally I can buy what I want to, without the feeling that.. "Ah..wish I had a job to buy this.. ahem..never mind"

• It feels "GOOD" to finally get into the ruthless corporate world, and hopefully make a mark. So, overall, a "feel good" feeling...up till now..

Now coming to why I call it the end of glorious days etc etc. Starting tomorrow, I will no more be able to sleep at 4 am in the morning, and wake up at 1 pm or later daily, lazying in my bed for hours, skipping breakfasts daily, keeping myself up to date with all the gossip in big boss 4 and post big boss 4, controversies post KWK (Koffee with Karan Season 3) episodes..,following some of the most ridiculous reality shows ever of the era,catching up with the latest award functions online as it is being telecasted on TV. There is a lot more to add to this list, but I gues I'm good for now..Finally, I will have to start being "disciplined", and following a schedule, a monotonous routine.. which I so hate and never have been that way!

My bro, once mentioned that, "once u get a job, u will crave for this time to be back.. think of this like a "vacation" that you normally get as you move ahead in your career". Let me give you an instance to make it more clear.. In India, after finishing our 10th grade, we have hols normally a lil longer than what we get during our 9th,8th and lesser classes. Again, after our 12th class exams and entrance exams, there is normally a "lil longer than usual" time off between our counselling sessions and 1st day at college! This is something similar. Similar in two ways:

1. Transition in career, be it from 12th grade to college or from grad school to a job. 

2. there is a lot of anxiety, frustration and an uncertainty element involved during this "vacation" or "lag phase".. however you would consider it as. 

I, now feel its so true. I m so going to miss this time of my life, miss my own space, my eternal laziness, my endless chat conversations during the so called "work hours", my experimental culinary side, which most of the time turns out so "yummyyyy", doing things my way at my will at my time of the day, ahh... I sure am gonna miss every bit of that! :( But as the saying goes - "Whatever happens,happens for the good".. I have always believed in that.

And like everyone, I am all exited to take up my new assignment after a long break. OK.. lemme sign off by rephrasing the title to "End of some glorious days (as I do believe there are many more of similar kind to come for all of us! ) and a kick-ass start for the "year of rabbits"

Los conejos son gonna regla! Amen..

Cheers,

Janz!
