an unRealized Dream

Downtown Los Angeles 2008



a dream still unrealized!! :) I had so much hopes of making it this time (the first time) itself, that I had not planned for what to do in case I didn’t make it. The only thoughts doing round in mind were,
  • what am I going to do once in LA,
  • how much fun am I going to have in LA,
  • WoW! LA = Hollywood, and I haven’t even been to Bollywood
  • AWEsome! AWEsome!! AWEsome!!! It’s going to be AWEsome!.
These were the only things going around my mind, and ofcourse
'ni main LA nu! tainu gaddi ch bitha k main lae jaavaan ni LA nu!'
I generally am never so hopeful for anything coming true, but this time I was, for maybe I wanted it bad!! Or maybe because I had been waiting for a long time to know. Well USC didn’t want me, and I didn’t want to go anywhere else. Nakhra yaaraan di Mucch da! :P Life makes life a bit confusing sometimes, but 'thou shalnt back down'. It must go on, and it shall!! :) Bass kirpa rahe Baabe di!!

Me, having tasted US of A , wanted to get back to the outer-India world. I asked him, and he gave me the details. He was a part of AIESEC . A member of AIESEC's DU Chapter. I told him, I wanted to go too. He arranged for an interview for me in Delhi with a member of AIESEC. The interview was good. They were OK with me being a part of AIESEC. Then they told me the fees part of it. Fees to go for Internship. I mean I expected that I would have to go on my own, living expenses even might have been my own. But for th...

Platform Ticket at Old Delhi Railway Station

Image via Wikipedia I thought it was something new. I hadn't seen anything of the sorts happen before, not that I went for it regularly or not even rarely if you may. But when I did, I never thought something like this would happen. Today I went to meet a friend who was going to join a company in Ahmedabad -  Mudra Port - at  Old Delhi Railway Station . The plan to meet him was an impromptu plan, as was his' to report & join the offices as soon as possible. He was already inside the station, waiting for his train sitting in the 'Upper Class Waiting Room' on  3rd Floor . I went to the station, knowing all well that I would have to buy a platform ticket to gain an entry & meet him, at least to keep the process completely legal ;) I went in search of a Platform Ticket Counter to many windows, and asked people enqueued there to know if the ticket would be available there. A few directed me to places (e.g.. around the next corner) where there seemed to be no...
