Who would've ever thought that World Aids Day would bring so much meaning in to my life? I mean, I go for an interview. My first interview, mind you, after coming back. And I get the job! :) So as of now, I'm Junior Content Writer for the website: www.burrp.com... Check it out! It's totally cool and has all the stuff comprising nearly everything I love : sampling great food, writing reviews, thinking up new ideas, watching movies, meeting new people, getting out of my shell and yes, learning new things! And of course, all of this while having the best time. Ironically, this has happened when I least expected it to. You know, how I've been ranting all the while on my blog about not having a job, going for all the interviews that didn't get me one, trying my best to write for a magazine, trying to get in to art-school etc (and none of them happened)!
Well, somehow, 2009 has managed to pay it all off. I mean, I did new things, I learnt, I saw! I learnt how to go to Sophia's, I took up painting classes (I love painting on huge canvases now), I learnt how to emboss a design on a metal sheet, I learnt a new technique of making papier mâché, I had my first Rosecraft Exhibition at Candies! I freelanced as a content writer for Bindass these past six months and it was a joyful journey; every minute exciting. So all in all, this year was super-fast and yet somehow slow in making things happen but it's finally happened nonetheless.
And I couldn't be more happy or thrilled or excited all at the same time! :)
So here's to more things for me. Btw, on burrp blah, we all write under pseudo names so all articles by the same person aren't written by me. For eg, Tina handles movies and Suzanne handles fashion! I think that's a super cool concept! So read my first write-up that I did yesterday as Tina.

P.S. Everyone here is super-helpful, I haven't acquainted much with them as yet but the work atmosphere is huge-spacey and totally great for me. My boss, Aarti is really cool too. She's helpful, open-minded, sweet and at the same time, principled and she's the kind that everyone likes - she's not at all bossy or demanding- yet somehow she isn't someone that you will ever walk over because she is great! Ok, too much excitement can only head for a downfall right? I'll shut up now.
Oooh, one last thing, my mom's sent cookies for me and my sister! (Just when I was telling Ranvijay that I've been craving them :) WEE!
