Boo-boos!

Posted by: drajesh on: June 13, 2009

Whomsoever be, anyone wouldn’t deny the chance to enjoy the pleasure of their own chronicles being rewinded, So am I. Hence, I decided to revisit those history of mine when I was looking to pass my hours uselessly. I wouldn’t have went past my e-mail chat history in the pursuit of memories-revisit if I’m provided with superficial powers!!!! I never thought of troubling my memories but I actually ended up so when I happened to realize that I’m unknowingly maintaining a digital diary in the name of online chats with my friends. Though my chats counted to hundreds and their words to lakhs, I never felt my mind tiring as each of those chats were triggering those nostalgic episodes. I later came to realize that I had never wasted my time in amounts which I have done now while waiting for my first job.

Nonetheless, the first frame of my episode – very much like the Indian movies – is a happy and funny kickoff which is the conversation in the name of scrutinizing the efficiency of the Google chat that I had with one of my friends. Since, I never could recollect a moment when I was allowed to chat in my college laboratory then, I assume the conversation must had gone, leastwise me sitting in the browsing cafe. Though, numerous chats which I had before my jan ’08 signified nothing important, the rib-tickling ones were those of the final year project sessions where GMail was purported to converse with even those who are hardly a hand-breadth away!

Later, ugliest part of my life (days after I left my college), was where I couldn’t find even a single chat without the three lettered word D-O-J. I had almost discussed with everyone regarding the joining date. Despite, none is sure about our DOJ, the continued imaginative speculations had driven not only me but also almost all of the friends to stay useless at home, which were horribly reflecting in those chats. It made wonder when I happened to see that I along with my friends network had virtually made all the plans to pack-up-with-resume but nothing ended up in reality. There had been times when we started to look for accommodations as if we had gotten a job, though other than me few of them went in search of job. I still couldn’t recognize what actually conspired me to stay glued at my house – Fate or otiose mind set! Whatever might be the reason, the futile days had gone past without any major betterments except the ever increasing chat counts! All the plans, I contrived, had stayed past with the chat alone.

Waiting was not the only mistake I had ever made in the past one year but it’s was the one which had forced to make several other boo-boos resulting in one ungettable golden period wasted! Being a normal human being, the entire topsy-turvyness went forgotten as soon as I got my joining date confirmed, making me feel as if I had my mistakes justified. These chats made me relive those turmoils once again and realize, whatsoever may be past, wake up, learn from the boo-boos , never let yourself commit those again, try hard to overcome those losses.

After all, there are no mistakes or failures, only lessons!

dei what u have written is exactly how ho everyone who waited would have felt.
Even I have occasionally read my past chats although they would ideally be restricted to the chats I had with lady Martians! :P

And finally believe it or not even I had wondered occasionally why you never left the comforts of your home and finally you did answer through your blog. Nice post

@nutty
hehe..Me too but I censored those chats which I had with filles from posting! :P
Btw, thanq for ur appreciation..It’s always nice to read martian’s comments :P :P

Lady martians!!!???? i thought tht they r from Venus! :P

hm.. this is probably one of the gud things that i have done, by not reading those chats! its hard to overcome nostalgia.. however i dont know y am saving them.. might b in this hope tht one day i vl read them.

ya… there is never a mistake in life, its decently called as experience.. wat say??

@ priyanka
yes..Past chats trigger nostalgia but it wud be fun, the other way. :)

Aah..yah.. exactly, but we experience the experience only when we are about a similar mistake again! ;)

I don’t think this is that important … There were hardly any in my friends circle who despised them being made to wait for the DOJ… those who did we instantly kicked out of the conference rooms ;)

According to me this was actually Unforgettable time along with my friends.. I used it wisely to get to understand people/sitatuation and get serious at the same time improve my sense of humour ..

I was wary about the consequences to my career to start with later did i realize that i was given a breathing time before a hectic career that would follow it..

The 1 last year I had close to many 20hrs long Conferences, and 4-6 hours chat were usual thing..

Cheer up mate :)

@whacky
hm.. I don’t think we would have learned more than what we might have rather warming our home benches! But, yah, the lessons differ! Do u think improving one’s humor sense and understanding people are worth learning by wasting an young year?!?! We might have also learned those even if we had been doing anything else! Perceptions do differ!! :)
Thanq very much for the comments mate! :)

Perceptions matter a lot atleast in this things..
I consider relationships and psychology behind it as prime importance than ladeej and money anytime in my future ;)

Just cause you were humiliated for being joblessness shouldn’t be a main reason for you to say that it was a waste of time…

Dawgs bark only when you are walking on streets not when you are flying in an aeroplane

yeah whacky likes psychology very much…coz one of the first questions he asked me during chats was “what do u thing about me?” this of course after a pretty lengthy description about what he thought he was. :P

hehehee…
Think of me when i was admist the thick of things :D

I wish i could retain my philosophical thinking but i guess my thinking would get contaminated right from the day i start working :P
