Am I blessed?

It has been a while since I visited anyone’s blog. Life has been keeping me busy. At work I wanted to finish something (I did not have to, but I wanted to) and I was working towards that. Today I am finally done with it…well, not quite but I just have one more step and I am sure that will work fine. So here I am finally feeling a sense of achievement seep into me. Yeah! It feels good to think I have done the work well. I have wanted to wail aloud when my masters took long, but now that I think of it, I never really had to pay a single penny for my education here. All through out I was funded and had a great professor.

Struggles were many, frustrations aplenty but somehow through all that I had hope. Hope has got me through, and now 29th looms ahead and before I know I will be done with my defense and masters.

Meanwhile, I have also started to feel sad about leaving some people behind. Sometimes in midst of talking, I find tears not far behind and it takes all my will power to control them from falling down my face. SIGH! How do people who were strangers not long ago come to mean so much?

Today I just feel I am very blessed in my friends, husband, family and work (oh yeah, that too).

Thesis done!!

Yo yo .. I am swinging, I am dancing .. I am even going round and round my table.. yo yo………………

I can’t believe I finally finished writing my thesis. Phew! What a relief and when my prof. said “Good Job” I was in the seventh heaven. I finally really am at the end of this journey of my life. I am defending on 29th June (hopefully, until something else comes up) and I can’t wait for it.

Yeah! I am a lil’ worried about my job and everything which will come after I graduate, but who gives a heck… I am happy that I am finally there.

I know this is stupid but I have this incredible urge to put up the “acknowledgement” part of my thesis in this blog. Since the time I have started writing this blog, it has always been a place where I write whatever is in my heart and right now I feel like shouting aloud “Thank you” to all those people who helped me come this way… so instead of having my acknowledgement in a thesis which may be no one would read I would rather acknowledge those people in this blog of mine!

however, on second thoughts I should possibly spare the few readers of this blog the headache of going through all my ramblings. I just know I am right now ready to hug all those who helped me on my way. I hope this lucky streak continues and i defend without any hitch, and do a good work of it too.

Oh yeah! I am happy today!
