1. I have realized life is a 'problem solving' quick game, where we need to find solutions at every stage. In my case,there have been a lot of failures and some success.So, its apparent and real-time experience by itself. Post 2013 mid, I have come to a conclusion that, none is competition or contemporary in this universal game. Its just that our own perception or may be inborn co-gentile thought process. So, I stopped being self-obsessed and started embrace every one.
2. I came to know and understood very early in my career that nothing in this world is easy in itself. One 'ought to' work hard to his\her ability to achieve it. No matter what, it is not really easy to get, especially good relationships, great job, may be 'the best university', six pack abs (Well,I'm not the great fan of this, but certainly I see most of you are!) or photography (Again, I'm not a monkey with DSLR or so)
3. About friends and friendship!
I certainly felt, for most of them around me, it is very easy to make or break friendships. So, I firmly decided to lead life in my own stride, in the sense, not to rely upon on anyone around me to share my baggage! And also, I felt problems of mine could only 'solved' by my own instincts and 'working' towards it with a pure conviction. In addition, out of my experience, I certainly faced this:
"some people were very close at some point in time; they might be an acquiescence in today's time zone. I'd rather find it very different experience at this point in age of mine."
In-fact, after a long thought, I realized, as and when we progress with our age, priorities of life changes accordingly!
P.S: Like any other things in life, people also come at a particular time in your life. Only you got live with yourself till you 'upheaval' one last breath! So, friends and all is just a perk in this world :) It is better to learn an art to live with yourself :)
4. In a way, I always neglected and 'taken for granted' my parents, teachers, friends, or any one as that sort. This year, I firmly got a good lesson about life without them. I have evolved as person, to know the real meaning of 'maturity'. I used and hurt people at a very fast rate. Now, I feel I should not talk much or be funny to my loved ones :P. I asked sorry and apologized to many and as well made fine peace treaty !
P.S: Love everyone but don't be overly possessive! Live and let live!
5. I have been in the research business. It is not a corporate world so to say, it is mostly driven by passionated people. Here, you either find a very serious monotonous geeks or just someone who is 'good for nothing'. Especially, I felt I'd rather like to work in a mixed environment where there is a glimpse of both research and commercial software development! Over the year, I went through a number of research papers and technical reports. I certainly felt, a lot of technical papers are just 'for-sake-off' stuffs. It is quite sad that even in the best universities this is happening! I must also confess, apart from all these negatives, I also found 'extremely' talented people and their research work.
One such lab I really liked:
LABROSA and One of the best research company who amazed me by their work:
FXPAL
P.S: Hard-core research is not my cup of tea. I like to work in an environment where there is a perfect blend of both research and 'commercial' software development.
6. Entire year was bit hectic in nature, I was applying for various universities. It was tough because I had to raise funds, plan etc. I leaned alot in this entire application process.
7. Last but not least, I have started enjoying finest performances 'on screen'. I no longer enjoy bad acting, irritating screen play, or any thing as that sort. Now, I'd rather like to see some of the best performances on screen. Last year I saw some old movies I really appreciated their talent to live in someone's shoes and portray honest performance.
2012-2013-2014: I watched some old movies namely
1.
karate Kid
2. Kahani and
3. Lucia (the only latest movie I watched)
So hoping my 2014 is much more exciting and learning experience in itself !
Can't Wait to update my old bucket-list and write new one :)
P.S: I wrote this within 3hrs. There might be some serious grammatical errors!
Again, Thanks for reading it :P
