Hibernation

Wow, i didn't quite realize that it has been more than 2 months of deep slumber for my precious little blog. Time to wake him up, don't you think so? The smell of victuals was sufficient for Kumbhkaran, well, lets see wat would be the stimulating point for this?

 

Well, to summarize what I really have been upto until now.....I tried to change fields. Tried to get some insight view of the ever-so-dreamy and ever-so-greeny software field. Programming is completely out of question. Those array declarations and logic can just float right above my head and I'd care less. Jignesh or I should actually mention all the IT husbands are of the opinion that "software testing is absolutely nothing. It's just click, click and click, just test if the application or watever it is works. Thats abt it." So after resisting the IT field, I decided to go back to school and try to learn some testing tools. I have to say I wasn't overwhelmed as I had expected to be. I needed to work hard but it wasn't so bad. But its vast. And 8 weekends of classes hardly suffice. After finishing the class, I learn I am expected to fake experience in my resume. Faking 2 to 3 years of experience will mean cooking up a lovely story about your "so-called" last project. By story, I mean a script, with every detail intact. This part of the whole process is what I find unnerving. I wonder if I will be able to bring myself up to do that. Though I can't completely deny the other excuse or a real reason or a fear factor, call it watever you deem appropriate, works its effects on me too. My condition about the work location. I don't really dream of commuting 1 hour 1 way daily which would mean leaving my girl for more than 10 hours at a daycare. You could call this a mother's guilt factor too. But I should have been ready for this before I started the class. Apparently, I didn't give it much thought. Do you really think this is an excuse?

 

Now that I dream of different scenarios of work and daycare situation, I don't really think I am up to taking up a full time job. Probably I have got used to staying and lazing around at home. But leaving Anushka for such a long time is just dreadful. Moreover, Jignesh doesn't work in the same town. So that scenario doesn't work well with us too. I have some more thinking to do. Or rather I can get back to my faithful blogging!!!
