My first blog!

Let's see... I am so frustrated with everything happening around me that I needed a let out that wouldn't really bother anyone... so here I am...
*WARNING*: I love long sentences...

I am an eternal optimist who believes "If anything can go wrong, it will!" ... Murphy's laws... I guess that makes me sound an eternal pessimist... but then again I truly truly believe that if you put in enough effort there is nothing that cannot be done! So that kinda sums up how I work.

Am in the US of A... the land where dreams come true! Honestly, it doesn't feel too different than home ... Chennai, India. The people I meet are different, the places I go to are different, the experiences are different. But that's it. The people are the same... hardworking... same expectations of life... This has led me to conclude that people at large are the same world over! Everybody's looking for a friendly face in everybody. People... think that's something for a completely different blog!

Let's not lose focus here... my complaints on life...

Am doing my Masters in the US... and Life sux! I work for a prof who is into nanotechnology. I sometimes wonder of he knows what he wants out of the whole thing! Then I realise, maybe it's me who hasn't quite grasped it all.
My prof... a nice guy... a nice person. But he won't let me go home for a decent period of time and that's bugging the life out of me! Doesn't he realise, that even if he did force me to stay here longer, my performance would be below zero b'cause I would be sulking so!? I am yet to convince him on that. I am just too scared thinking he will ask me to take a walk and not come back!!!

My experiments aren't doing much to support me either. They just won't work the way they are supposed to! Or maybe it's me! I am trying my best to prove that the fault is not at my end... no thanks to anyone on this.

I am bored of going to the lab everyday and returning back with absolutely no results. One thing stays constant though, that my prof doesn't think too much of me. That has not really changed for over 6 months now.
I seem to be right in every experiment that I come up with... to prove my assumptions wrong. To prove myself right... I haven't gotten a single experiment yet!!! (sulk!)

I am pissed. With the world at large! That's me today... at this moment.

I go out of my lab and see a squirrel, a bird, a hornet, my favorite janitor or technician and am all happy and spritely again! Doesn't take too much to get my spirit down... but on the bright side it doesn't take much to get my spirits soaring high again!!!! :)
