The Wonder Years

Some things just strike back to you..It was 2 years back when i first landed in Lucknow and i wrote my first post!! It went something like this.

July 2005 i wrote....
I have realised that its a new system, but i will have to adjust pretty quickly and give my best.I will have to have infinite patience to cope and shine out here. i am realy hungry to perform. Thats the difference i have seen in me for quite some months and i think its time to perform.

Well now after 2 years I realise what helped me achieve all that is just having that hell lot of patience..while working on all the activities, with all the different sort of people, those frustrations, times when everything went wrong and also times when things went remarkably great!!

Having identified that patience is the only thing to quietly keep on moving ahead despite everything made ALL the difference. I had also decided to lead a very controlled an disciplined life for d 2 yrs which also helpd immensely..

So what went right along these 2 years.....Firstly finding awesome friends for life, the quiet confidence to work in the first year, world class act at Summers, the Einstein award, the ALCOM work, the groundwork at Student Council, NYCC and yeah all the Jogging!

All along there was just this mad rush to do some excellent work, to push the limit and see what comes off it. Well things fortunately turned out to be good, with help from excellent people along the way...Lady luck did smile a lot!

It was all with some really bad times, lonely times when everything seemed downhill and those jogs to let things go.

Anyway time to move on! Back to my cool life in Bombay fr good...Time to look beyond and i already see Bigger things to be done, better challenges to fight for and yeah i am getting a good feeling about it!

Today officially signing off as presi. Handing it over to the new guys around. That marks the end of my student affairs. Mad rush, with too much squeezed in . It has involved a lot of sacrifices in terms of time spent with friends, enjoying...The time could have been spent with some great people on campus, some more personal time. But it has been worth it and sometimes it is necessary to just know how far can you go! It is also important to stop there and quietly turn back

Today i ran for 15 kms non-stop in my campus. The largest distance that i have run so far...
Feel like Forrest Gump just minus the girl who screams 'Run Forrest run'. No luck yet in that department!
Good to have pushed it finally!
