I woke up hurriedly all soaked in pirspiration on a chilling snowy afternoon @ 12:45 PM today. I was breathing heavily and was kind of brain-washed after the kind of interrogation i have gone through.......where my now-founded-longly-missing soul asked myself the set of quintessential questions - Who Am I? Where am I? What am i Doing? And why?
So many questions!with only a 386 processor in my brain, i thought i am definitely getting an hemorrhage. But then sanity prevailed later when i decided to answer the nail-biting questions - one by one. I took a deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep breath(so deep!!) and thought of the first one!
Who am I?
There wasnt any sound! For the first time in life i thought if there could have been a sound amplifier inside...and suddenly i heard
......uooonkhkh...umphfff...hmmmm...
as if somebody was nearly choked to death. Then after few moments it said.
..its me...Nitin!
Who? then came the cross question - Which One?
the voice told
...the one who used to sketch portraits!read books! write poems! was mad about advertising!hated coding and loved writing long mails!!
then came the hitherto-forgotten smile...ok i see...so you are back! Good to hear you nits!!
Where am I? asked the still coughing soul all soaked in viscous-fluid(as in matrix neo was inside one)...and was really a hell-raiser!
In US of America! some seven oceans far away from the beloved land of hitherto sanke charmers~turned-into-IT programmers!
Whhhhh......what are you saying! I love my india...i love my friends there, near and dear ones, my food, my festivals, my faith.....what the hell i am doing here...??
*because of time constraints....this post will be continued soon.....!!

GABBAR.......i have started!!
This is going to be the first BLOG of creativenits.........!!Hmmm let me see from where i can start.START..i guess i read something about start somewhere...probably at somebody's blog.
Situation Tasks Actions Results Takeaways is what ppl in MBA lingo take it...u see how confusing do they make such small thing like start.
So to start with the SITUATION at hand. Its 2:11 AM, being swayed away from ppl's blogs; the leftovers of my smothered creativity told me, " What are you doing man? Living!! What r you up to? the same old mundane techie programs, that you run and monitor everyday as if oneday it will display a message " job ran successfully - you are relieved of this technical pain!" and you will be free?" You have to do something to get out of here, to reach your dreams!! Understand the situation nits....u arent looking creative anymore!
(S down, well done) Thinks...
Next is the TASK. Task at hand is to start a blog where i will keep venting off my feelings...about the bad snowfall..about the same f***ing mainframe screen...Also to keep a log of the (pro)gress\(con)gress that i did on my way out of this techie...no no lemme write in full 'Insanely indifferent, integeristic inferno of infotechism'job, to get into a Bschool back in swades( only ISB, be it!).....Thus this blog will create kinda pressure to achieve my dreams.
(T down, they are reading it for the first and last time..) Hmmm
ACTION. Well that means writing blog till u reach the R; result of my pledge against the deadlock of mainframes.....I can promise lots of action here..good thingie is that i have just watched SHOLAY...so the action has started..in veeruish tone 'Gabbar! Mein aa raha hoon....'
(A down but not under, but nobody is reading...leave the RT) zzzzzzzzz
RESULT - awaited...in march-06, i guess as far as ISB is concerned.
(R) ( "Not yet - says trinity in Matrix-1")
TAKEAWAYS - admission in ISB or another year of yaarana with those JCLs, Cobol Programs, Linkcards, controlcards, and their whole witchcraft!
'Faisla hai aapka; aakhir sar hai apka'
(T) (dont know what ppl will say after reading this! "God is watching you")
HUHHHHHHHH Done.

loop-starts
for umpteenth times
*Please forgive me*
