Impacts of 2011 on me
Disclaimer - purely a biased view on my life
The year began spiritual, i remember vaguely spending the first 20 days in Melmaruvathur, indulging myself in spiritual services. Meantime i was in touch with ANB Team on my job offer, i was supposed to join 19th, but as i was in the midst of this and my responsibilities refrained me from joining on the foretold date. Well, i did get an extension and joined 24th of Jan finishing off my duties back there.
January, i'd call this a payback period of my life. I felt my deeds were answered and i also counted the easy made money of **** (Not much, yet meant something; first official paycheck i guess) for surfing through for the first six days :)
February - Rested a bit, gathered some books, the month wasn't much fun or interesting, but it did pass by.
March through June - Reminded me of my diploma college days, such a tight schedule. Was probably working on Saturdays and occasionally Sundays as well. My favorite timepassers - Movies and Books were far for my sight. Frustration, cussing, criticisms, inevitable verbal thrashes, higher ups questioning, whew these were my crucial days of the year.

Did i mention I started watching movies, i was closely getting back to FORM while i came across some good books.
August - Another payback period, this was more like a BONANZA or so. Was awarded for my devotion to work in my office, got the confirmation (i was quite whelmed, NO MORE a TRAINEE, dono why i hated the very notion "You are a FRESHER!"), also realized that getting the confirmation will give you "TWO MONTHS OF NOTIFICATION PERIOD" before you are being fired up!
September - This was a payback for the payback, i was so close to cuss myself for accepting the award given away at office (padupaveenga, Rs 500'ku gift voucher kuduthuttu, 5000'ku selavu vechutaanga!!! :( ) gave away treat for no reason/ or more reason like "Award" "Confirmation" "Birthday" (despite the fact I don't celebrate it; I was surprised to hear a colleague of mine saying "You don't celebrate, so what, we celebrate")
October - Was quite a hot shot among colleagues for the first couple of weeks until I drenched myself fully back to work. But managed to save some time for movies and obviously books as well.
November & December - as the year comes to a closure, wanted to spend the time valuable. Started preparing for a certification am taking up the beginning of 2012. Tensions that can't be unveiled at workplace. Thinking back what it was like last year same time, it was spiritual, I really did miss that, but occasionally stopped by there just to be grateful
