Right here right now..

the new years eve is coming soon....just makes me think about the time I came to brazil...which was about three years back...a lot has changed since then...i would like to talk about my first impressions n the first few months...but tats abother post...this one is about right now...so now i´m sittin here ....in the school where i teach !!(teach!....i had never imagined three years back that i would ever teach in my life!!)_....

im sittin in the ´´resource centre´´ of the school...where there r a row of comps n books n DVDs...n students ..read smartly dressed, loaded, overworked employees slave to thier companies(as this is an english school catering to a corporate crowd)..something I used to be (except for the loaded and smartly dressed part)...

i´´m ok with this job..actually...its like a good timepass thing for me....coz..there r no real wins n no real losses...but the money is ok...plus the work one has to do for it is miniscule....compared to workin like a dog six days a week 8 to 9!!..for slightly more money.....

the only thing i used to hate about it though was when I listened to all these daily cribs n bitchings by my co-workers about students...about coordiantors...abt the pay..i used to think .cmmon...how tough is your life...!...this is nothing!!

but thinking abt it now...it does seem that mediocrity really overwhelms you..i dont mean to say that what im doing is mediocre but whatever level one is at...the troubles and pettiness of that is a black hole which can suck u in...one has to constantly think abt doin soemthing bigger n better...if u stop dreamin..n being ambitious ..not about the next level...but abt something much much beyond...its just the next level where u´ll ever reach...

i dont know if what i wrote made sense...n looks like i´ve digressed big time from what i had started to write about...but what the heck..this is what blogs r for!!!...run of the mill thoughts!!
