Honestly, I’ve started this post (as the title suggests) just because I’ve had a
post every month for the last three and I’d like that to continue for whatever
it’s worth and because I’ve spent the last hour trying to figure where to study
from, for the six subjects I have, for the impending mid sems and I think I
deserve a break.
If I had to describe the time since the last post, it’s been
busy. I’ve completed my internship, come back to R, gone back home for a week
and back to R again. There’s so much happening, but if you ask me pin point
exactly what, I don’t think I’d know. Yet as I try to write this post, thoughts
seem to be flowing freely.
Everyone around is busy doing what they can to ensure they
can do what they wish to do once they pass out of here in a year’s time. I
still have a year to go for all that, but I can’t help wonder what is it that I
want to be preparing for. I am rather disappointed that even after three years
of college education I am almost as confused about what I want to do for a
career as I had been when I first came to R. What I regret is not that I don’t
like what I came here to do – Chemical engineering, but that I haven’t yet
figured what I do. No doubt I can see more avenues now, and understand better
what they mean but the lack of clarity is somewhat disturbing.
But a line of thought I am growing to believe is that there
is not necessarily something like figuring what you want to do forever, that’s
going to keep changing. You just got to do what you like at present and move on
to something else when you feel the need to.
