PHEW!!

It's been a hectic few weeks.. Absolutely no time to do anything at all and i must blame myself for bringing this onto myself..

For those of you who are reading this and don't know yet, i joined a consultancy firm in Chennai in august.. Been working there for about 3 weeks now.. Yes, I'm not taking TCS (i think :D).. But i feel completely justified by my decision to have a career switch given how many of my friends want to quit their IT jobs.. The pay isn't as much but work seems really nice and prospects of growth seem possible..

Pretty new at this place and hence don't know the people too well yet.. I've been warned what not to do in the office already though, things like when not to greet your boss and repent for it.. Work is getting hectic and deadlines are getting extremely unrealistic, which bring me to why i started writing this..

I miss my old life.. What time i got up was inconsequential, i could stay awake till five.. Now, i had better get to office by 9:30 (It's tough man).. Beach was routine, now it seems like a luxury.. Haven't been there since i started work.. I miss watching movies.. From close to two a day, I've come to a movie in two weeks.. The thing i miss most is not having to be so responsible for my actions..

Things don't seem to be getting any lighter.. The only thing that rocks about this is that i get paid for the hard work i put in, unlike engineering, where i paid to be told what to do.. Last weekend was the best in a few weeks now.. Went to bikes and had great fun.. It was great hanging out with all the guys again..

All this seems so sudden and unexpected that it's hard to deal with.. I sincerely wish i could go back three months just for a little while.. Maybe another evening at the beach with all the guys before they head their separate ways.. I can almost hear aerosmith singing "Dream on" :D
