for some sanity....

I have been going crazy over the last week. The applications are catching up with me and I still feel I haven't done enough research about the schools , though I have been studying them and gathering facts for the best part of an year. Essays of atleast two schools are out , one of which is my top choice , so started writing outlines for the essays. However much you write it feels as if something is lacking. Leadership in and out of work , values , background , inspiration and aspirations, why ?, why now ?, why me ? and various other possible questions , all swirling in my head and of course in front of my eyes. I am beginning to get a picture of how it is going to be like to work on 5-7 apps simultaneously. With the prospect of a US travel looming large and working at the customer place being as difficult as it ever is , I am looking for some sanity in my world that is slowly exploring the realms of insanity.

All isn't bad as it appears , coz there are some comfort points though.

1 ) My poetry is definitely helping me. Just wrote my own version for one of the best songs in Telugu. I feel I am becoming a decent poet :) , anyways it is helping me relax and takes my mind of the schools and apps.

2 ) Shishu Mandir , I am really fond of this and can't wait for the next saturday. Worked with JDA to buy 300 books in Hindi , Kannada and English for the Saturday teaching sessions we organize. The school teachers have been really thankful and have sent an appreciation mail. Couldn't help read it and re read it multiple times. Never felt so happy.

3 ) Recently completed another presales projects. Should really thank my manager. When the Client sent the appreciation mail only to him , he made sure that I received the credit by forwarding it my directors with the following note ...

Gordon, Jason

Credit for this work should go to Prasad, as he took extra effort and time over & above his current engagement to develop this prototype.Looking forward to engage in this implementation activity soon.

Well that makes your day ,.... wouldn't it .... Writing an outline for the duke essays , time to go back .. cya..
