my life

Announcement, Announcement pupil! My life is about take a new turn. Yes, new job is round the corner. Possibly, from next month, I will be working at new office.

This place where I am working now has lots of memories for me. This is the place where I learned to be professional, learn new skills, techniques, and many more. Met very good friends who will always be in my heart. Looking back, I never thought I will be at this stage: working in the area of development.

I had barely completed by high school and passing my time, like any other kid, roaming and having fun. At the same time, I wanted to be independent on my own, wanted to do something. So when I saw the vacancy, I applied for the post and voila, I got it which was beyond my expectations. Well I had fared well but had talked a lot, I mean a lot. Anyway, I got the job.

When I was a child, hearing my dad’s fascinating stories about histories and myths, I wanted to be historian or archeologist who tells the stories of the past. When I had free time, I used to count stars and watch them in amazement wondering probably I should be an astronomer. Then as I grew up, I thought probably being journalist is the coolest job in the whole world: you can travel and tell the stories. So I took up the subject hoping to be a hardcore journalist who travels around the globe and shares the untold stories. However, fate has something else for me. Even now also I travel, hear the stories and share the stories but not as a journalist who seeks answer to what and how and barely why but as a social communicator who seek answer to why to those questions which hardly interest our mainstream journalists.

These years, I juggled around various positions, worked in many issues and now time has come to say goodbye. But it won’t be easy though I had thought otherwise. The hanging frame that consists pictures of my friends, the poster of John Mayer, the happy calendar and other personal stuffs would have to find new place and I wonder whether there will be place for them in my new desk at new place.

Now my position will change. I will no longer be part of this glamorous media fraternity but still my quest for answer to why will always remain same; my search for stories will always remain same. Probably my voice will be hardly heard in radio waves, but my stories will always find a way to reach out to those who want to know.
