Life is full of options; yet you cannot choose!

OK.

Tell you what!
  • I got a summer internship position at a Service Provider located 300 miles away from my place. Rent-Free and all that, but pay exactly what my professor pays.
  • Had yet another interview and an offer on a local technology center on a project, with a 33.33% more pay.
  • My professor says : " Good JOB , ELF" few days ago and he pays exactly what i would earn from the summer intern on that remote job (1st option).
I can work option 2 and 3 (time sharing) to make the most money, but i cannot time-share with the first option. I think, none of these jobs are that boring and every of it will affect my career equal.

First option would be an adventure in a town of 10,000 people. That is, practically, ALONE!

Second Job would be all money-money-money but i have decided on timesharing with the third since i got to find my thesis topic within this summer for me to take in the "thesis option" for my graduate degree. There always is the "project and the course option". I need not panic though.
A girl at our university strips for her honors thesis? COOL :P

Man, am i getting some ideas ? ;)
The Third Option... i think i was simply looking for a break off the same old shit, since I'd have to continue on that after the summer again.

I guess i will go in for (2-3 timeshare) , but then, i haven't yet rejected the internship offer for the first job. I guess its bye-bye to the first one.

Confession: I actually, was trying to write a rejection letter : but instead ended up here.

Oh GOD! Why is choosing a job as difficult as choosing a girlfriend ? or, am i asking too much?

Screw you professor, you make my life boring!

I never tried too hard. He wants me to. I always succeeded without trying too hard and now is just the opposite. He never stops the deadlines and the TODOs. I am buried in a heap of workload. He doesn't understand me ,or the other way round!

Oh God, send me yet another professor who knows what he is doing, and what he is letting his student do. OR, if you cant do that, make his wife a little less dominant at his home, can you?

It has been almost a week or more and when everyone seems to be enjoying the summer ( are they ? ), i seem to be dragging. Not that it isn't what i ask for, but i wanted the same to be easy-peasy. I guess, unpredictability is so ubiquitous that you cannot escape being a victim. Doesn't it sound better if you could fight it ? OH YES!

BUT HOW DO I GET RID OF MY STRAIN THAT HE IMPOSED ?
  • Work more/harder, Party the most/hardest ( not quite on money though ).

  • Your time is precious and your paunch is gettin' bigger. (Go squaring up the elm wood park).

    Side note: You don't want to gain weight, do you ? Remember, Adnan Sami ? or Your "Mama"(uncle) ? Do you want to be like one of them. Even last time you talked with your "Mama"(uncle), he said, he reduced so much of his bulge. And he was warning you!

  • Sleep Well. (Ah! You'd be turning anti-social buddy! )

  • Make sure, even if the professor screws you (literally) , you don't make your life boring. Work for him, Live for yourself.

ELF AND ME

Been with him thru his ups and downs,
Seen his happiness and his frowns,
Seen his whining galore….
Heard his geek talks…Oh so bore!

Tasted the failures,
Smelled the success,
Rested with him…
In life’s recess.

Have shared his little fears,
Have shared many smiles,
Have seen him drunk too….
Once in a while :P

Seen him strive!
Seen him slog…
I know it all coz
I’m his dear ELF TRAUMA BLOG ! :P :P

"Gooo gal"

DISCLAIMER: It isn't my find! BUT this is interesting!

Google has always been a talk-about everywhere. The way it amuses people bringing out brilliant ideas and services.

Let me start with an old trick!
  • Go to http://maps.google.com
  • type in "omaha to london" to get in directions
  • and scroll on the left pane, no. 28 !
Is that what you'd expect ? Geeks! Googlers!

Alright, Have you been hearing of rumors about the "soft wear" industry giant , 'my crow soft' thinking of acquiring 'YAHOOOOOO' to battle against 'gooooo gal' ? gooooo gal seems to be fantastic in innovation, i doubt even if the crow does so, HE wouldnt succeed! [Totally my cents. You dont need to agree on this.]

Goooo gal ! I am trying to act a feminist here! EQUAL RIGHTS. Now, you'd be surprised, Gooo Gal doesnt accord to my belief. Dont believe me ? OK, go for yet another trick!
  • Go to http://www.google.com
  • Search "he invented" --- remember with quotes!
  • OK, you get a bunch of search results, FINE! PERFECT!
  • Go back!
  • Search "she invented" --- remember with quotes again.
  • Can you note the difference?
Now tell me, do i make justice here writing "Google" as "Goooo gal" ?

For those who are fascinated with how google presents itself ( herself? ) to the public , try visiting this link

And for geeks, who would like to NOT work at Google, please do visit this link and be cautioned:

For everyone else, i think its time you close this page! Too much of geeky stuffs! : ) Better luck next time!
