The Year That Was

2011 proved to be a big step ahead in my life. A lot changed in this year.
Education status : I finally achieved my long cherished dream of MBA. The last paper of MBA (http://unknownrahul.blogspot.com/2011/03/dreams.html) and convocation date (http://unknownrahul.blogspot.com/2011/03/dreams.html)   easily stand out as my highlights of last year.  It doesn’t matter if I could not do MBA from an IIM , it doesn’t matter if I am not working for Big 4 right now , am an MBA and am extremely happy about it. And yeah the plans of doing an exec-MBA and working for Big 4 are definitely ON for future. J
Employment status :  After the famous of Infosys debacle (http://unknownrahul.blogspot.com/2011/04/those-sunny-days.html), I admit I was damn scared to join an organization again. Luckily, things have worked out well this time around and am enjoying being happily employed. J
Relationship status : From committed -> its complicated -> sad single -> happy single , my goodness I saw it all in one year. But thankfully the chain ended at happy single . J  One of the best thing to happen in 2011 was that finally I got to put the PAST to the place where it belongs “ in Past” .
Change of City:  Sadly for work, I had to leave my Delhi. (http://unknownrahul.blogspot.com/2011/05/its-idli-dosa-time-again.html) It would have been perfect if I was working in Delhi. However, I guess if everything gets perfect then its not life. Living away from family and friends is not easy and there are moments when it hurts a lot. Sometimes it gets too much like on a Friday evening you wish to go out for a dinner but you cant find anyone to go out with. There are moments when I feel lonely but then a good office life offsets it to a limit.
From a Reader to a Blogger :  I must have read over thousand blogs in last 2-3 years . I enjoyed reading blogs a lot and used to think that blogging is something out of my league as all the blogs that I read were written in a very professional way. But then I read one blog with which I felt connected immediately, in some posts I felt as if they had been written by me. It was a very simple blog, no use of fancy English words and had real thoughts  about life of a normal human being. It made me change my perception about blogging and made me write about the Real me. J
Bye bye to some, hello to some:  I think its part of life now. You make new friends and have to part away with some close friends. 2011 was no exception. Due to some issues, had to part away with couple of my closest friends. Luckily made some more new good friends. I do miss them but then the little ego rules me and I can’t help it. J
Overall  thank you 2011 for giving direction to my life. J
