Globetrotting
I know its a long long time! And guys, am alive n kicking..so to speak:) Cant say am THAT busy so as to no scribble a word or two but, I dont get profound thoughts everyday. A LOT has curtailed since Sept 29th since I last made that post:) Firstly, my blog turned 1 ALREADY on October 8th! Would not have remembered it unless Thanu told me. Both of our blogs are twin siblings:)) Time and time I am reminded of the old adage that says " The only thing constant is Change" I believe I was born with that fortune of moving to places and constantly adapting to people, places and circumstances. Maybe I am not just the one. Yet to meet someone who shares a similar (mis)fortune. Started off from a small suburb of Bombay from where I moved first to go to Shreveport. Destiny brought me to Omaha, where I made my second home. Met great people. Had some bad experiences. But I sustained, rather still sustaining. And I swore come what may, I am going to fly from this place with a degree. Come what the hurdle, I am going to bear it all. Then came the news that my advisor accepted a faculty position at Cleveland, Ohio. Which is where the 'wheel of fortune' takes me. I bet this is going to delay my already-delayed PhD. This too happens when I finish my qualifying exam before december of THIS YEAR. This is one of the most dauntic tasks I have ever faced. Overwhelmed-I am Confused-Yes, I am I have stopped asking the question 'Why me'..it somehow doesnt help the process. Have seen a lot of transformation within myself, yet to see a lot more. Life and something like that..is all I conclude! |

wow. that sure is overwhelming. But you can add "expert at packing and moving labs" to your c.v :-)
jokes apart, hopefully the new place brings some unexpected advantage with it, that'll help speed things up.

Whoa! Awesome, ROS! Congrats!! I think living in a new place is soooo much better than just simply visiting it like a tourist...you should rejoice that you're getting such great chances to live all across the US. :D
Good luck for the already-delayed PhD, by the way. :P
