Miles to go..

I was sitting in office, looking at the calendar on my desk where I cross off a day each morning and I say a full month crossed out. I didn't even realize it’s been over a month on this internship. Seems like yesterday when I was stressing over not getting an interview or worrying preparing for interviews. I thought this will be a long internship, seven months does seem to be a long time. But, looking at the pace of time, I think it will be over before I know. And that does not give me a good feeling, I need time to slow down a bit so I can make more of it. I need this month to go slow so I can achieve the things I want to before it ends. There’s so much I have to do, along with fighting my procrastinating habits. I want to go on trips before summer ends and almost everything closes down. I want to get closer to my personal goals. I want to learn and grow. And I want time to think about my project before I really have to, so that I don’t end up in a stressful situation. So much to do, so little time. I know this is probably a wrong thing to do, thinking about all these things that I have to do because it’s so overwhelming. Thoughts are weird, I cannot stop them once the chain starts. Now, my mind looks like an overfilled calendar with deadlines and tasks, and themes only one thing standing out – “Miles to go, before I sleep.”

A day in San Francisco — Memorial Day

If you have followed my blog for sometime, you probably know about my big move across coast. It's been a few months being a Cali resident, but I haven't gotten out as much as I would have liked.  Maybe once we move to a place, it kinda loses the tourist charm that it has when we visit for a weekend. Don't you think? I decided to make this right and this Memorial Day weekend, I spent my first Touristy day in San Francisco. Like anything else, I made a long list of places to see, and spread it across three days based on distance proximity. Yes, it was a whole weekend plan but life get in way and hence it ended up being just a day trip. The day started with a little detour at Bay Trail, near Shoreline Park, followed by a quick brunch at Crepe Vine and a beautiful long drive to the city. The Painting Ladies at Alamo Square was our first stop. These are basically just houses with a Victorian architecture and painted with three or more colors. The whole area l

What if ... ?

What if — an agonizing feeling that no one is spared from.  We all find ourselves in situations where we look back and think about things we  have done, things we should have done, things we should not have done, or things we should have done differently. They are not necessarily regrets, but more of questioning and second-guessing the choices we have made. I for one get this feeling a lot, and I find myself thinking about how life could have been if my choices would have been different.  What if I studied harder in school:   I would have gotten into a better college with more opportunities, which means better job and satisfaction. But, who can guarantee that would have happened- so I'd rather be happy about the other things I did and not just study all the time. What if I stayed at my old job:  I would have gotten to be roommates with my best friend for a much longer time, and would have definitely enjoyed more and I wouldn’t be stressed because of studying, assi
