hi vimal

mmm... where do i start? wut shall i tell? h shall i put it? i am currently gropping 4 words 2 do so.... well, it all start like this.......

a beautiful tuesday morning with a nice warm sun-rise warming my cheeks and making me blush. I got up 2 a perfect morning (so I thought boo! boo!) had a nice clean cool bath & had a clean neat shave.... put on the best of my clothes and decorated my clothes well enough to make heads turn more than once. In other words, wut happened was a perfect step by step procedure for preparation for a important day in my life. so did my day went till i entered into the i-Flex office for my aptitude test. Oops!!!

There were as many as 40 students (past & present) who were competing with me!!! All my own friends & acquaintance who suddenly (i.e., between the time the lift door opened & before it closed!!!) became arch-rivals... sworn-enemies... un-forgivable foes.

FRIENDS 2 FOES WITHIN FIVE SECONDs. (sounds like a nice movie title, rite?)

Waited for almost 30-45 minutes before the aptitude test could take place... Ding-dong! Ding-Dong! Ding-Dong! Bell marks the begining of a biggest testing time in my life... a occasion when I have to fight & compete against people with whom I learnt to compete... a occasion when I have to fight for my share of cake with whom I slways shared & cared.... a occasion when I had to race against time to win the competetion well ahead of others!!! This was indeed a momentous occasion! Though did not last long....

Phoosh!!! Phoosh!!! The sound of answer sheet being snacthed away from beneath our (holy) hands. The end of a great time... the end of the shortest 1 hours I ever spent in my life.

"Silence! No Talking!!" was wut we were all greeted with... to have completed our greatest contest. We will get back 2 the selected few(??) soon. In other words, get the F*** out of here and let that b fast.

I was over joyed... excited... jumping with joy... over the moon... in the 9th cloud & 7th heaven... b'coz i came to know that i did the best when compared 2 others.... wow! wut a joy beyond any imagination level.... u gotta feel that kind of feel when u know that u have bet all black & blue.... though result is awaited it mattered the least when upon verbal comparision with ur compatriots (or is it enemies???) that u have done better than their assessment of their performance.... atleast verbally yes... but in reality???

the results were out by the evening.... we all were thrown into the biggest whril-pool of chaos & confusion... none of the apparently top-notch performers got in!!! Can you believe it??? No!! well u dont have a choice... u gotta accept it even if u dont believe it.... None of the Techies got it.... Oops!!! all the dreams shattered.... the castles crumbled.... poof!!! the 'Benz' car vanished.... the dozen top IT-savvy & sexy babes disappeared... just imagine falling from great heights.... falling from 'over the moon'.... falling from " 7th heaven"..... falling from "9th cloud".... This was it!!! this were it all ended.... this is where my confidence.... my dreams.... my joy.... my excitement.... my freaking future in i-Flex. well, all ended within a few hours of coming in2 my life, imagination..... So, tell my buddy, wut can i do.....

sniff! sniff! sniff! (crying)
boo! boo! boo! (weeping)
waah! waah! waah! (wailing)
