adieu 2006..

aah..here ends 2006..a rather calm one ..it was a different one from the previous year i.e, 2005..it reminded me of mortality and that a nadir of failure is always in the vicinity once you have reached the zenith of success...but undoubtedly past one year has been a learning experience in itself...it for sure helped me to toughen myself up and most importantly i have learnt to say no to certain things and be selective about the things i wanted to do...thus helping myself to be more focused and get ready to face new hurdles..but successive failures tend to make a person short on confidence but the strength of a string is known only when it is stretched to the fullest..2006 will go down as an year which is quite special because of all the things it had given me..

welcome to another semester

well, already three semesters of life in cse@iitk has passed in what seems to me like a few seconds..i didn't even have faintest of ideas that time is indeed passing with an impeccable velocity.at this point of time having looked back at the past year and a half i can say that this has easily been the hardest time i had to face in my small little journey to date ..rather it'd be better to put it this way that I'm the only person responsible for the sorry state of affairs in which I've managed to land myself in..
well, where is this journey leading to?will it be another long known story of the protagonist falling prey to the praises after a few initial successes and unable to live up to the increased expectations or will it be a saga of miraculous redemption and a return to form? there are aspirations n hopes that they'd b achieved..amidst all these feelings the time has come to show off one's mental as well as physical toughness over a period of next four and a half months during the demanding curriculum of iit kanpur .. we shall wait n see what is in store for us at the end of it..a repetition of unfulfilled aspiration or a grand return ..welcome to another semester...
