20 days of doing nothing............................................................

20 days of doing nothing............................................................

My college completed on 18th june. I had thought will be working straight after this. Next day i am off to work and to my great great surprise nothing came up......... for 20 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had been working a little before finishing college so knew a few people working in great places and positions and to my great great surprise nothing came up .............. for 20 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally i realized the truth that nothing comes easy, even if you are ready to work hard there are few things everyone one has to follow. So, i made my CV. I had never thought will be doing so. I used to think i have been working since college will get some place some where but nothing came up.............. for 20 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Never thought will be giving interviews and all but when college is completed you realize you are no prince of siberia. You have to slog like everyone else does. Pressure of standing on your own feet takes it's toll and you are all down in the dump. But these off times can make you realize what you really want to do..........

After 20 days of doing nothing I know.

I KNOW
what i wanted to do .......
It took a lot from me first i was staying alone..................
I realized how prisons must be................
because when you don't have any motive you are in prison................
20 days was enough i could have gone mad...............
there were few offers which i could take but where not related to my field........... so i waited and waited.............. Didn't take any of those............
First of all, i want to tell you all i want to be a film-maker............................
i was getting things in PR and journalism ...... ofcourse not through any interview or any thing but through friends................ With whom i had worked so that qualifies for interview as they know your work.
But no work work in film as an Asst. Director.......................... previously there were offers from Serial when i was in college but now when i needed there was none............ :-)
I got really irritated......... and i had done theatre from Dec 2006 till June 2008 and after that rarely because i was doing other things.......................
So, i had ACTING in mind...... but never wanted to give it a try............... really never................
because i really loved doing it.......... i used to think i will do it in theatre as it is much fun and never work for money and other S**t.........

Finally, where am i ............................
I have decided to adopt ACTING as my proffession....................... Had no other way out........
But you know what >>>>>>>>>>>>>
IT IS GOING TO BE REAL FUN ..........................................
Wish me luck and hope to see me soon....
yessssssssssssssssss
20 days of doing nothing had me discover myself.

Really, this is what i want to do........................
