Yes, after a long gap I have a reason to blog. I want to reflect my thoughts over the past 12 months which was so experimental and adventurous. Couldn’t believe that I chased life so much and have inherited a lot of maturity over the years and here I complete 24 years of life It’s my birthday today and life can’t get any better than this and the way I feel at this point of time. I am feeling completely blessed for what I am and for what I have. I have earned an independent life out of my hard work, gutsy belief system and my well-wishers who guided and held me when I needed something in life. No one can replace such wonderful angels in my life. *hugs*
I am not sure if I make sense by reflecting my thoughts through this blog, but I have a sense of satisfaction with my action. I wanted to blog after every good/bad incident happens in life but I have never felt the necessity to do so. But I think blogging after a year definitely has some meaning in what I am doing in life.
I realized that life is an adventurous game to play because you don’t know what’s in store for you next. So I like this phase of my life and enjoying every bit of it. No words to express the way people made me feel today. Unexpected calls from rare friends and it’s a good feeling that they still remember you Thank you so much for all the wonderful wishes and I feel so blessed. As I grow old responsibilities do add to my kitty slowly now. However I am trying to give my best and so wanting to feel fresh and young in life.
It’s been really long since I took some conscious effort to write something in my blog. I mean realllllly long:) I am planning to post something regularly from now onwards, let me challenge this and do it. I want to share certain interesting things which happened in the recent past which kept me busy these many days. hmmm now I can see many faces going Garr thinking that am I totally jobless now to post something in my blog??? Not really but I think this is the time to share all the best experiences which I had.
Thought I would start narrating from the beginning but now its changed. A sudden collapse:) I got my 3rd semester results recently and I scored descent marks above 70%(let me not reveal the actual %). My 4th semester started with a huge responsibility with preparing a theses, I mean all of us in my class have to review any movie under lots (Lotsss) of parameters given in the syllabus. oppps its actually lots which all of us did. Approximately my theses came up to 150+ pages. Whoa. Believe me I am not joking and I was unable to believe myself that I wrote 90% of the content on my own.
I would rather say I just scribbled my thoughts about the movie and the process was really painful with sleepless nights, imbalance between all other routine activities. I will probably put it across like this. Usually babies expect mothers to give full attention to them all the time without doing anything else than to look after them. I can actually relate my experience of this theses creation with a baby because its the same experience. I was just thinking only about the theses for about 4-6 weeks without concentrating on other things. But it was fun and I was totally focused in finishing it on time. It is one smallest achievement in the recent past.
Meanwhile I went for a short and sweet trip to a beautiful place, ( I need a better word to describe this place) which is away from Thirupathi, its called Talakona. Ahhh amazing falls, awesome tree house, especially the monkeys and the monkey which grabbed my Liviya backbag. Its my luck I got my bag back from the monkey after a small cheating session with peanuts. As soon as I came back from this unforgettable experience I was held totally with the organizing committee of TedxChennai gang.
Another memorable event which I ever attended in my life. Though my contribution was just a pie on the whole, working with the backend process of the entire event and organizing them, Whoa. It gave me hands on experience and it created a good platform for me to network with some best people I have ever met so far. Before I could unplug myself from all this, I started to work on my study paper which I am loving it so much and I don’t know the reason why, the topic is Internet and to narrow it down I am talking about Social Media and its future with business ventures.
Its totally fun reading a lot of abstract information about social media and blah. And it’s a chain of activities that I am held with, finally I am up with my internship with Kiruba once again for next three months. Its going great with new projects and a promising learning experience so far.
I am very excited about my experience which i gained a week back. I went for a radio workshop conducted by a famous radio jockey in chennai. It was 8 full days of learning, fun, enjoyment, full of industry knowledge how radio industry works and what are the pros and cons of it. It was such a nice thing to see few good people who have really made a mark what they are doing in the industry and we got the opportunity to meet and interact with them. To name a few RJ Guatham, Singer Madhumitha shree and many more. On the process we also got an opportunity to practically implement what we learned during the course. So if your thinking what is about. Yes all of us produced our own "Radio Shows". The most interesting part of the course. I personally enjoyed doing it. I prepared my own script and did my recording which was a wonderful feeling. I did a show where people get to know the new restaurants which are opened in and around chennai it might be a five star hotel till a small tea shop. It was fun doing.. It gave me a lot of insight of what i should do and the donts when i enter the industry. I must say it was a great experience for me because its always good that we keep upgrading ourselves with the recent changes and innovations which would be of great help in future when we are on toes . On the process i made good friends too. Awesome days in my life. I am sure this will help me alot in near future and ways to go!!!
I dont know how many of them are really comfortable being infront of the camera. But i know many of my friends who are very scared and shy to be in front of the camera, including me:) First time in my life, i was in front of the camera for more than about 2 hours interviewing a young guy for a show. Hilarious experience. I must say its a very tough job when we see people interviewing and they should be in a position to pace with the interviewee talks. Learned a lot from it, though there were lot of butterflies in my stomach when the camera was rolling. Had a real nice time and it was a good learning experience all together. After this, i really thought why not i learn the basic etiquettes and interview sense which one should know before going in for interviews.Mostly interestingly it was really very informative and the guest just keeps to go because what they speak is just right from thier bottom of the heart. Since this being my first interview, had learned a lot from it and enjoyed it with my crew and hope they enjoyed it too!!!

On the right track!!!
Excited about exploring the technology and the power of technology. I was thinking only people who have technical knowledge can flourish in online industry which is no more true. But as far as my knowledge about this field there is no hard and fast rules to do things in a particular way, just have to explore things on our own.
On the verge of grapping a space for me among the huge crowd!!!
