A tip for thoughts..

Firstly lemme me start with the couple of reasons that made me write this blog. The first one being that I had not given it a thought times before and how cumbersome I had felt after realizing that and the second one being that this happened to provide me the topic of reentry into writing blogs ( rather a sling shot for a lazy one!). Ok now lemme delve into the topic.
To start off with news that had excited me over the past few months, I am leaving to the US to pursue my graduate studies (Hip Hip Hurray!!!).Be it stepping into a world where I had always wanted to be in or be it the passion in me to study further, had kept me in the excited state for quite some time. Adding a tip to the excitement, I had been to the conference that was held by USEFI (United States Educational Foundation In India ) yesterday. Basically they had intended to provide the students a snapshot of what to expect and what not, what to do and what not to do out there in the US and well, I should say that they had definitely succeeded in that!. The speakers had narrated their close to heart experiences in the US and I am sure that everyone out there enjoyed every bit of it as I did. Now came the last part of the program.the quiz. There were two rounds on this-the first one was on the US and the second one about India. I guess by now one would have got a faint idea of what I would eventually end up conveying..give urself a pat if you had guessed that right. A number of hands flew up when the questions were posted on the US (infact to the surprise of the quiz master) and now came the questions on India.
When I was expecting a lot many hands to go up now, I saw a lil over a couple of hands going up and that too only a few were right. At this time when the USEFI people were bewildered at such a response, one of them sprung up with a thought which shall never leave your mind forever. This is what she said “ according to me higher studies in the US is like the icing on the cake, but it is out here in India where the cake was made”….if one doesn’t know about the place where the cake was made, it’s a mission unaccomplished...
