Running - Was back from Gujarat early this month and then started alternate day long distance slow running. About 8.5 kms (not too long). Somehow I easily continued with my Cold and Cough from Gujarat and still suffering. Haven't been into running since a week. I also started skipping and restarted it again yesterday and skipped skipping today. Skipping really helps, specially to get good posture. It is since I observed since 3 days that M back is again curving and shoulders dropping down as before. Also I had planned that on 18th November I will make first 21 kms run, but will have to wait. May be a month more before I go for 15 kms + in practice. Read some books and back to Nelson Mandela along with Forge your Future by APJ Abdul Kalam. This is all from non- acad point of view.
Placements. . . As usual this last minute preparations and revision days are boring and time just seems to have slowed down its pace. Good time to get 10+ hrs of sleep and that is one of the things I am doing. Going bit into technical details. Started with Mech core preparation and seems that I actually have lost many stuffs from memory and its gonna take Eons to make a come back. Since a week ago after consulting one of my friend (All names to be disclosed in Post Placement Post) I started with revision of specialisation of my area ie Mechanical Design. It seems hard to continue with it. Getting distracted with Facebook, songs on youtube, sleep, Guitar and all things that you can think of. Somehow, the seriousness or importance of placement hasn't sunk in.
Couple to go, ie couple of weeks before the placement to go and I am literally counting every hour to 1st December. It is has been one of my peculiarity that I seem to change my stance on a issue after a while. Mostly after gaining more insights into the matter at hand. Something similar happening now. Wanted an ABC company initially. Now I desperately want XYZ company and may be I need PQR later. So, this 14 days are going to be tough and exciting. Thank GOD there is good amount of part to be played by Forces of Nature in placements.
Slotting of company is not that I can control. Though higher categories company come first and others follow them. But there are chances that two companies of same category may come on two different days. There is also something called as shortlist that few companies may put up. Don't know exact details of it. We certainly do have a choice of filling up preference for companies coming on same day. Having said that I have different amount of liking for different companies and also having pressure of past performances (details in next post) it is interesting how the records stand at the end of placements.
Pink Tie has so much now became my trade mark sign. Some perceive it in good way some in bad, but it has became my part. There are different set of formals and different occasions but same Pink Tie, which was a gift to me. There few connecting Friends and people and situations that has made it my trademark. Frankly speaking, after every use, I find myself more fond of it. Just one or two events where I went with a non-Pink tie. Let us see my mood and atmosphere on placement day which will help me choose my Tie colour.
One last but something which seems more promising is Expansion of my 'S - Circle'. Though the expansion will be by one only. Though it is too early to predict how things will shape up with the new member, but I am being hopeful.
Go on a vacation or trip or hibernation for a fortnight. My next post will be between 1st December to 3rd December.
