Here I am doing a 10-7 job (which is more like 10-10), studying on weekends (not really though its high time that I took my studies seriously), house/hostel hunting (read Googling and Just Dialling) and spending way more than what I earn (help needed)! I am messing it up, I know. But I hardly have the time. I take my work damn seriously. My career is the only thing I don’t kid about. And my work demands most of my time. By the weekend, I am beat and don’t feel like doing anything apart from those fun activities. But there are a lot of things to be settled on the personal front. I need to start looking out for a house ASAP. Parents are shifting to Kerala by July first week and I will be moving out by May end. I am still not clear what exactly I’m looking out for. I want to rent a house but that’s gonna burn a hole in my pockets because the area I prefer are Versova and Lokhandwala and in those areas a HK flat will cost me at least 20K per month. So a hostel seems to be the ideal solution but then in a hostel there are going to be many restrictions and I am not that good in following rules and regulations. I have a list of hostels with their address and phone numbers (thanks to Google and Just Dial). I gotta call them and then visit them. I am secretly praying that my parents don’t shift to Kerala till September end. On October 2nd, I will be completing 1 yr in my present company and the 1yr employment agreement that I signed during my joining will no longer be valid. I can then look for a job which offers better sal. I love my company and my team but the sal sucks. Being a shopoholic that I am, I hit rock bottom by month end.. And a better sal would up my chances of renting a house rather than moving into a hostel. But I don’t really think that my parents would wait till October. They are longing to go back to their native place. They have been away from their home for a very long time and unlike me they just love that place. “nammude veedu, nammude nadu” That is how they put it. At times I really wonder how they can permanently shift to Kerala. Thank god that they have stopped trying to convince me from moving there along with them. The truth is that I have a career to make and that is my top most priority. I don’t want to risk my career by moving back there. I also have my PG studies here in NM. That is another thing I don’t have time for. I have no clue how Iam gonna manage my studies along with work. Assignments have become a pain and I have had to cancel all my weekend plans so that I could type 4500 words on Indian Economy. I have not studied a word on Indian Economy after leaving school. And I don’t remember a thing I studied in school about our Economy. This course is harder than I thought of it to be. Thank God that I have a dad who knows everything and anything. That is how fathers are. They just know it all . Well that reminds me I have 1500 words left to complete one of those assignments. I better stop writing random stuff and get back to my precious 20 marks. Wish me luck!
