Been 3 months after i finished my MS. And What do I have to if anyone asks my status - "Jobless", or more suavely "Unemployed". What else can I say considering that I graduated exactly during the time of recession. :)
Does it matter? Ya it does, especially seeing that I have spent a fortune in doing my MS. But then? To be honest, I dont know. Coz, in one way its an experience in itself. All our life we have been cosy or spoonfed, never been out of our homes, or even if we were, enjoyed under our parents money and love. The only year I earned, I spent it recklessly in movies, travels and drinking bouts. But now I m realizing what I have done, and what I shudnt do. Of course you should enjoy, but not recklessly.
Being in such an umemployed state for the past 3 months has indeed brought out a different person in me. I think more, try to work harder, and of course play more too. Mentally I am getting stronger. Initially I was very insecure (In fact I still am, but to a much lesser extent considering I have come to terms with the situation), but now I am ready to face it, and fight it. That I believe is indeed an achievement worth noting, coz situations like this prepare you to handle failures and fight harder to overcome it.
Getting bogged down, and walloping yourself in self pity is the easiest thing to do in these circumstances. I did, and kept cursing my fate. But now I realise I have the opportunity to create a new fate for myself. It may not be in the what you desire, but then how will you know what you really desire, until u try it out.
So thats my state now, ready for new things and open to new opportunities. Although they may take some time to come, but come they will, and I will be ready for it.
