White Problems... Black Problems...!

Nov 29, 2008 01:09

It is interesting how life keeps on changing. It is interesting how problems keep arising. It is interesting how different people handle problems differently. I am no wise sage but in my short existence and even shorter adult existence, I have come to realize that the way people handle these situations either builds their character or erodes it. I feel really saddened around me when I look around and see lost 'potential'... and let's not even go to the negativity and bitterness that ensues and engulfs not only these individuals but those around them as well.

But this was not the purpose of my now rare appearance on this old blog of mine...

So my engagement with Faiza broke off. Initially, for about five days post break up I was upset and then I was relieved. Relieved because once I was no longer angry and upset at the "shenanigans" I realized that I was no longer stressed out. And the reason was that I was no longer trying to make a relationship that was thrust upon me work out even though I found that person highly immature and childish and did not manage to develop any chemistry with them.

God works in strange way. Now I am in love with Mahvish. And I am really happy. She is caring and understanding and mature and I definitely have a chemistry with her. I don't have to try with her. Things just always seem to be in the right place.

My career is a bit out of whack. I failed by USMLE Step 2CS. It was just one of those days I suppose and perhaps a little bit of over confidence and a little bit of bad luck (ahem 'choice of center' ahem). Maybe one day I will see the silver lining in that. Anyway, my repeat exam is in January in Chicago (I will have to spend Rs 100,000 on the flight once again) and this time I will make damn sure that I pass. As I do not have a job right now the good thing is that I will be able to take a longer trip and will like to stay in NYC for a while. If I could somehow get to see a taping on Conan that would be fantastic. It is unlikely that I will be able to match this year. I have gotten only one interview call because of this mishap. I hope something works out in the post match scramble.

Well... that's my news... I'll be back.
