Born in the East, brought up in the West, shifted to the North, and now in the South to stay...That's the tour of India for me..What more apt a title than the city I am in...
Three months old to me, but much older actually..I haven't really looked around the city yet, but the exploring seems to be going good.
The transition from college to professional life has been smooth, with just few hitches along the way. Having said that, I recall the apprehensions I had as I sat in the first row of the Training Room 2 (I did not volunteer to occupy the first row, that is where my name card was placed), wondering how the first day would go and whether or not I would get along with the people around me.
It all did go fine, courteous people from the work place, were all eager to make us feel as much at ease at possible. My training went on for a little more than 40 days and then the grind at the job. However, it isn't a grind yet. My team mates are excellent, they give me a chance to learn before I can plunge into the real work, which I think is very considerate.
I have met a variety of people around me , ever since I have come here. Most of them are nice, yet different. Having gotten used to my own comfort zone and the type of people around me, I had somehow created a notion of the way people are and the way they behave. That definitely changed, cause even if they are nice, there are so many things about them that I might not like or even approve of. But then life goes on and it teaches you how adaptability plays the most important role when you shift places.
I miss my old life, my old friends, I really do. But then working has its own benefits, like getting up and going to shop whenever one wishes, buying n number of shoes if one may please to, and yes the "one" here is me!
As long as I can make the most of, I am at it. Independence has a whole new meaning. And I enjoy being Queen Imelda/ Jaya (as christened by my colleagues).
Cheers :)
