I aint no RAT!!!

So here goes the blabber again…this time inspired by the recent placement season in college and certain bitter realities of the ways of the “elite management institute” of the country, hosting the crème della crème of the best brains !! Superlatives and the impact they have… I am back.

The placements went decently in college , and we saw the trends , the requirements , the preferences and the ups and downs which every newspaper must have talked about . Yes, the much sought after “crore” package might have been given . Frankly , didn’t interest me who got it and how much so I m not mentioning it here!!

But what was even more interesting was the changing trends. It seemed that the bankers wanted to be consultants because of the fear in the arena ! Even the so called “studs” were ready to compromise!! What followed this event was the choice of courses in the next term! Inconsistency , struggle for recognition and compromise seems to be the trademark of the place. Well , honestly , I am no different than the crowd and neither do I want certificates from any body here!

But there is no use of this struggle as long as it is directed externally. I have changed my path , and I will no longer entertain this uncalled for change !! I know I say a lot of things. And not all of them I follow. May be a mistake in self analysis. Infact that is the toughest thing to do . To accept one’s shortcoming and fallacies ! Actions depend on situations! Even for me , sometimes 2+2 is a 5 and not 4 ..(that’s an over rating I give to places and people) ..

What is the power of self , if it changes in situations?? That ‘s flabbergasting , yes that is stupefying....But that is the most common occurrence here!! Infact , statistically I would rate a 10/10 to these aberrations. And I aint no party to this anymore!! So I need a break from this rat race ..( dunno if I was ever good enough to be a part of it ..)

But yes , it is good fun watching it from the other side.

What lies ahead from here, well , I really don’t know!

I have dreams which I want to realize ,they are like the flowers which will blossom in spring!!

So if this is the autumn , then I am all geared up for the breeze with my canvas of future and my own colors..and the battle goes on ! But in this race , the winner wont be a rat!!


My share of the world is my life and I am not negotiating on that.”
