Hard to be a 9 pointer!

Yah! I got 9 points in the last 6^th semester first time. After gradually increasing grade from 1^st sem to 6^th it is the best one. I was so much happy but happiness never last forever. I don’t know why but after getting 9 points my friends treat me in another way. They usually treat me like I done some mistake by getting this. I am frustrated. It is good to be 6 pointer rather be a 9 pointer at least your friends never give you any comment. Usually the famous dialogue about human psychology in “3 idiots” comes to my mind, “dost fail hote hein to bura lagta or first ate hein to or bhi bura lagta hein”. whatever they think I don’t care. I should be good enough. I compete with myself and I want to create new milestone every time. My 7^th semester exam was not so good may be the grade will decrease this time and proportional graph with time and grade will fall down. Failure is the pillar of success, so hope next time it will again increase.

My armour

Finally I got my armour, Canon SX 30 IS. I am really passionate about photography. I love photography so much but I didn't have any good digital camera till now. Finally I Bought one . It seems like a gift from my father to me as I got the Job in Cognizant. For the last two months I searched for camera in the internet. I was very much confused about Canon SX 30 IS, Fuzifilm HS 10 and Nikon D3100 (DSLR) but finally I decided to go for Canon and really the camera is very nice specially the 35X zoom. I took some nice shot and really happy with my new armour. Visit my Flickr album http://www.flickr.com/photos/avishek_datta/

Got selected in “Cognizant”

It was 17^th December 2010, 4:00pm when our apti test completed and I got selected for PI. After a long wait for 12 hours the final call came for PI and I was the last person. The HR thoroughly gone through my CV and asked so many questions, maximum of them was non technical. At the end of the PI he gave me 2 very nice puzzles, though I could not solve them. At 12:30 am they announce the name. Within 112 selected students one name was mine. Yes! I finally got a job. Abhishek, Sourav, Chinmoy were also selected. It is a very nice experience for me and I am really very much happy as because my parents feel proud for me.
