Soccer…Ayn Rand & an Anti climax

Ok..now that I have jotted down a few lines..let me see if Im good for few more..

Well..the last few months have been quite interesting. For starters I have taken to soccer! There was a Footsal tournie that was supposed to start a few months back at my office. So we guys at office formed a team..and started to religiously practice every saturday at the local ground. Well the tournie got delayed…but the practice persisted. Finally we had our first match last week..and guess what..we won 4-0!..and guess what…I didnt score :( …but im sure as hell gonna make sure that I do in the next match…even if that means I score in the wrong direction…I just wanna stretch my wings …run zizaggedly..look at the heavens..may be even do a back flip or two…before my comrades put me to rest…for good.

Im still reading “Atlas Shrugged”…I think its been a lil over year since I begun. Not that Im not liking it..which actually would just be consistent with recommendations. On the contrary I’ve actually quite enjoyed it so far till page 138 (Yep its been over a year and Im still at 138).

Oh yeah…I finished my thesis…submitted and cleared…and resultantly graduated last month…but oh no..can things ever be so breezy with me? can they? Convocation- My name is announced..I wear a proud smile…stand up…walk towards the dias…shake hand with the digintary who awards my degree…pose for a snap which will capture the proud and much awaited moment for  eternity…got back to my seat…almost ripped open the folder to have a first look at my degree…only to be informed that I have completed my MBA in II class….WTF????…you have got to be kidding me!…and the rest of the evening as expected went pretty much the same class as the certificate claimed I passed in…actually worse…well I have been assured that I’ll get a corrected certificate…but so much for the much awaited convo…and the snap with me receiving the degree…I know what I actually received that day…and now you know.

    !! You’re still at 138! Did you at least meet Francisco D’Anconia (who is my favourite character of the book) or are you still languishing somewhere with Dagny and the rest of the damned Taggarts and Reardens?

    And also: congrats on your thesis submission, I’m working on the same thing myself, even as we speak. Should be submitting it this week. =) But Second class? Really, WTF?! 0_o

    And o speeder-upper of ontime, if you could similarly speed up my joining date, I would be eternally grateful. =)
