There are few hours left for 2009 to end and 2010 to start and sitting ideal on my pc i thought to pen down the moments in 2009. 2009 had many flavours for me and there were good, better and best moments as well as there were bad, worse and worst moments.
The year started off with a bang and 'WE' - (tats the name of my MBA friends group) celebrated a so called 'WE DAY' on 2nd Jan, 09 by meeting up and exchanging secret gifts with each other. This was one day which I guess I may not forget for a long long time. WE hardly had college this year as WE were in our final semesters but whenever WE met we used to go around together to some or the other place.
Education wise this was the year when I completed my MBA. I miss my MBA days the most but then now I feel work also has its own importance and enjoyment. After completing our MBA studies 'WE' went for a 4 day trip to Kudal and Goa. This trip was really very enjoyable one but deep down my heart there was a feeling that this might be the last time I am going out with all my MBA friends for a trip.
Once WE returned WE all started to find jobs as the recession had hit our batch so badly that there was not a single company that had turned up to our college this year for campus recruitments. But once WE returned from Goa I guess things were not the same as it used to be when WE were studying during MBA. May be the priorities in life had changed for all of us and now there were many new things in life for everyone then just friends. During college days WE decided WE will meet once a week which we never met, but WE used to meet at each others birthdays which after some time WE decided should be stopped and WE should meet once a month so that WE can spend quality time with each other but then its almost 3 months now that I haven't met all the WE's together at one place. Being in college I always thought that once the college completes things really change and also the people with whom you are so close during college days do. But never expected things to change so fast. Nevertheless I miss all my friends and still want to go for atleast a one day picnic with everyone and recollect all those moments. Hope this will happen very soon in 2010.
Professionally it was the year when I could say yes I finally started earning and have become responsible in life. I got a big big project from Taj Group of Hotels where I was the Project Head for a 3d animation project for Safety Evacuation Film for Taj Residency and Vivanta By Taj at Taj Bangalore properties. This was the best achievement for me professionally and I got to learn many things during this project. And yes I never did MBA to just do projects but to get some good job and join the rat race i mean to join a company and start working. And I did got a job and luckily I got not just 1 but 2 jobs. No, I wasnt working at both the places at same time but I had to quit my 1st job within just 3 months time as I wasn't happy with the things turning up for me over there. But right now I am enjoying my current job and feel I am learning many new things about the Internet industry every new day.
The 2nd job I got was the best thing that could happen to me at work as in the same company I had 2 of my best friends working along with me. I had kind of lost contacts with both of them after joining MBA but now I would like to thank my current company to bring us back together. We have lot of fun at work which makes work more enjoyable and less stressfull. We three just returned from a 3 days trip from Pune, Talegaon and Lonavala and had a great time together.
Many things did shaped up this year in my personal life as well. I guess I'll avoid to disclose those moments but only say that those were bad, worse and worst moments rather than being good, better or best. The best thing to happen in my personal life was that my sister got married to the love of her life this year and I feel very happy for her.
So to sum up 2009 was the year full of events which had its ups and downs and showed me many faces of life. I enjoyed this year as well as there were few moments which were depressing as well. In few hours time I am going for a party with few friends to celebrate the success we had this year and to welcome 2010. I will end up this post by saying that 2009 had many different flavours but somewhere I have a feeling that there is more coming up in 2010.
