No more alarms at 7:00 a.m in the morning(now u know why i turn out late everyday!), now more rushing to the train station; no more plans for bunking in the train; no more movie discussions, no more blue books. Dudes the college is over. And i cant belive it coz it just feels like, i have joined it! This college was really sour for me when i joined in the first year. The atmosphere was completely different from the school. Co-ed for the first time! Did go well thought. Infact i found a few friends from the opposite sex too. Hmmm...since this blog is about the life After college, i should tell you, its really really different. Now i taste resposibilty and i tell you people, it really sucks.
For those who have got the job, their resposibilty is to perform. For those who havent, the onus is on them to get one. Now we can feel the heat and the competition among the other graduates. I never gave a damn until i saw the turn out for verizon. 16000 plus! and they selected some 1200 for the second round. Cool ratio huh! Thats one thing people. The one aspect i really miss is that, we are not students anymore. We dont belong to that elite category. That dun-give-a-damn attitude! That protection, that respect. I certainly miss that. And i belive, almost all of us would miss that. Life will be never same for us.
I just want to conclude by quoting an age old adage, "the only thing that is constant is change." We certainly can't get back our school or college days and we certainly can't hope that life would be as smooth as it was. Now we are professionals and we have lots of responsibilities. Now for us and for our parents, later for our spouses and kids and later on, probably for the society we owe our work. So people, memoirs are for cherish, that will be always there. But reality bites, so get on with your life. You turn, you show your back to the future!
