New beginnings and familiar surroundings.

It's strange to see that when you are chasing something for a while and you eventually get it, for reasons unknown there isn't much of a jubilation but more of contemplation for the things that lie ahead.

So I finally accepted the offer, which until yesterday seemed quite unpredictable and add to it my oft changing stand on the compensation. I thought I blew it and partly frustrated that the interview process took me nearly two months. Well if something has to go wrong it will, what better a time than the crucial last phase. Blaming myself for the way I deal with certain things, which seem to be exactly the opposite of what many consider a thumb rule, the last evening was quite something.

I'm glad everything worked out well and due thanks to the HR lady who got the gist of my logic and in a way read my mind. I could perhaps relate this to a platter filled with loads of goodies, something that I didn't quite think about. What happened later is any one's guess and I spent a good part of today grinning so much that my cheeks hurt.

So I relocate to Bangalore this Sunday and back to the familiar routine of work. I find it a bit symbolic given the fact that I pretty much started my career from this beautiful city and going back to it, maybe i've come full circle.

I'm finally glad, to be home but not at home. What is it that excites me the most? That i'm back on my own, doing my thing and minding my business. 6 years away in total, staying at 'home' has lost it's charm. Enough said.

Presently playing Paparoach's Born with nothing, die with everything. A song, that I used to listen to over and over again four and a half years ago.

Here's to a new chapter in life, so help me God.
