Good bye friends, Good bye US!
Some of you already know my decision of heading to India after graduation. I am defending my thesis next week and flying back on July 22nd. As of now, I don’t have any offer, but I am looking for a full-time job in India. Let me take this opportunity to formally announce my departure from US.
Talking about the reasons behind this decision, I would like to share a list of ‘pros’ of being in India:
--Only Indian T.V. Channels, like Star-Parivar, can offer wide range of truly entertaining and mind-blowing serials.
--I can own awesome softwares without making me bankrupt, and any Music comes almost free.
--Glutting your favorite food without worrying about the calorie content is a pure bliss. Even if you subconsciously look for the calorie content, it should be missing. Recently I found a nasty list on Limca bottle in Indian Food-mart. What a crap!
Jokes apart, I am putting my family first and following my intuition that it’s high time to start any career in India. This topic has been received promptly by few of my friends. I owe my deepest gratitude for their sincere inputs. There, however, is no other way to verify any hypothesis but to execute. I am game!
Since the decision has already been made, lets look at the implications:
--My current phone-number will not work after July 22nd and no voice-mail will be entertained either.
--It’s time to settle scores. If I owe you anything, remind me ASAP. Please be prompt otherwise also.
--My limited earthly possessions will soon need either a new owner or a welcoming trash. Items that may interest you, are: wooden study table, chair, lamp, end-table, book-rack and piles of used/new novels.
I would like to thank my friends in Purdue for making my stay pleasant here. My memories of Purdue will include, numerous indoor parties, adventurous road-trips, aimless long drives, late-night cricket sessions, trips to various cities, obviously classes and homework sessions, exciting teaching experience, various outdoor ‘events’, birthday bashes etc. and these were never possible without your enthusiasm. Thanks a ton!
In case I miss the opportunity to meet you in-person before leaving, this blog should serve the purpose.
Adieu!
