2008 :A Year OF Ups And Downs

Welcomed it in Chennai. Will Be Bidding Good-Bye Soon In Mumbai. Year 2008... Time to wrap up all the bad times and hoping to witness good times in the year next. This has been a year filled with fun and pain. But painful moments definitely outnumbered the funfilled moments. Time is a healer but who can heal the scars... Every month has a story to tell.
First half of the year in Chennai taught me more than one lesson. "Never Trust People Blindly , No Matter How Good They Are To U". This life is so unpredictable.. Every bad moment is compensated with a beautiful moment.. U lose a friend and u get another one or u find a lost one. Stayed in Chennai for 6 long months. Now I consider it as my second home..Soon came June. And that was the end of my Chennai days..
Came back to my city... With an excitement to meet my childhood friends leaving behind my Karunya Friends with a hope that I would meet them during convocation. Soon came the D-Day as well, Our Convocation Day. Heart was filled with mixed emotions. Spend 3 yrs for this day 5th July'08. Was the Happiest Day and Saddest Day as well... Happy because we got our Masters Degree.. Sad because that was the last day with my friends.. I do not know if i would ever meet them in my life.. And that was my last day in KARUNYA my Alma Mater... A place which has given me sooo much, taught me sooo much. Finally had to leave it behind. Walked away as a Proud KARUNYAN with the degree in hand and memories in heart.
Another excitement started. Eagerly waited for company joining dates. Life took another dirty turn. As usual my plans and life's plan never matched. Down came the US economy.. Which led to the postponement of my joining dates to next year... Just a look at the mail from the company and the world just came crashing down. All my dreams broke into pieces. Still life moved on. I was just left with my degree in my hand.
Wanted to earn so joined a call center. Felt completely out of place. During training met sum , became friends and had sum funny moments together. Stopped working after 2 months. Then back to the same status "JOBLESS". There comes another dreadful day, terrorism strikes again in the name of religion and my city burned. Killing people and making hundreds of life miserable. Fear creeped into hearts of Mumbaikars but my city was back to normal the very next day. Another city close to my heart "CHENNAI" flooded, killing people.
Now here I am at the end of this "Most Unfortunate ". I just hope and pray that nobody should ever experience such bad days in their life. Now living with a hope that the coming year 2009 would make the lady luck to shine upon us and make it a prosperous year for me and everyone worldwide...
