My firt post ever!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone,

I had been thinking of starting to write a blog since 4 to 5 months. i wanted my first post to be very interesting. but the sad thing was, there wasnt much interesting thing happening in my life to start blogging. (may be no.. may be i thought it was too personal!! ;-)

well, this particualr incident tempted me to start a blog.

So, here i go..

OK, let me introduce to u myself 'properly'.

I am a prefinal year engneering student in Information Tech branch like umpteen other students out there. My friends call me "studious, intelligent and a silent girl". i dont know about the first 2 but i can assure of the last coz i dont speak so much in class or wherever. i will be always to the point and never skirt the issue. but i am not a 'dumb and shy' girl either.
that's all i can say about my self for now..

So, about the thing which drove me to this blogspot..

Few days ago i had my first interview ever in my life.. Yes it was campus placement season in my college. the first co. to visit our college was (shall i name it??? ) ok it is XYZ co.

After the paper presentation part there was a written test. thankfully i cleared written test ( i was well prepared for it anyways). then came the interveiw part. though i wasnt afraid of it, there was a sort of slight nervousness in me about facing the interview.
The interview process began from 10am.
everybody was waiting for their turn. they were calling names in a random order. so no one could tell when their turn would come.
i waited and waited and waited...... for 8 hrs. and finally they called my name and i was the last person to be interviewed ( before this interveiw could start i had told my friend Ch that I wouldnt mind being the 'last' person!!! Hm.. a coincidence???)

First round was Technical,
There were 2 of them in the panel. (The first one had glasses on..)
P1 was asking all HR questions and later P2 Started asking TECH q's

Me: Good evening Sir (feeling happy and confident)
P1 & P2: (shook hands with me ) Good evening.. Take ur seat.
Me: (still smiling and sat)
P1: what is the meaning of ur name?
Me: (i said as i was expecting this question.. ) ... i am very happy to be associated with that name.. (he looked impressed!!!!)
P1: Why r u wearing ur veil (dupatta)tightly around ur neck??? how is it supposed to be??
Me: (I was taken by surprise by this remark. i thought 'what the hell has he got to do with my veil??') well, it depends on the person and her comfort levels about deciding how to wear a dupatta.. ( i dont think he was so much impressed..)
P1: (seeing my photo on the application form) why arent u wearing specs in this photo.. are u trying to hide anything??
Me: It's not like that sir, i was wary of my specs causing glare during the flash. so...
P1: dont u know that there are glasses which do not cause a glare???
Me: I dont know sir, i h've recently started wearing it ( "a white lie there!!!")

P1 looked at my application form and said, "what is this?? u have written 'watching TV, reading news paper, and browsing the web as ur hobby' why cant u be specific?? anyone reading this will get a negative impression" . he was sounding very sarcastic and i was struck!!!
Me: (I thought for a while) well, i just wanted to give the interveiwer an opportunity to ask question on it he..he..( i was really sounding stupid yeeek ;-( )
P1: Oh!! so that u can prepare for the q's well in hand and draw the interveiwer's attention to the q's for which u have already prepared well???
Me: (He sounded really sarcastic and he was feeling very happy for having caught me. i didnt say anything for that) smile......
P1: what do u watch on TV??
Me: NDTV, CNN IBN, Discovery channel, and sometimes music channels also..
P1: what's the latest news?? did u watch news today??
me: no sir i couldnt watch news for 2 days since i was busy preparing for the tests and interveiws..
the latest news is SC stay on OBC quota and Bob Woolmer's death.
( he was again unimpressed and said to P2 that i was playing safe by skirting the issue and not answering properly)

he went on like that screwing me sarcastically. to be honest if it wasnt the interview i would have blown his head over!!!

then p2 started with tech q's after p1 said "now let's see how r u going to answer the tech round. specific or general?? he he...." ( i seriously felt like punching his face)

P2 asked me few tech q's which were all easy and i answered them..

Finally it was the time to announce the results. most of my classmates names were announced..
Alas my name wasnt announced!!! i was very upset i stopped listening to the announcements.. then i went near the notice board later on and guess what?? my name was there on the list...
I was really on top of the world. and everyone of us were very happy......
