JUST GO with it.

As I travel down my memory lane, I remember I wanted to become an astronaut. And a little later, a scuba instructor. And a little later, a  forensic scientist. In fact, I've dreamed of  almost all plausible professions, when I was a kid. But as I started growing up, I was told that I was being naive. And that all the middle-class-Indian-kids are earmarked for engineering.

Well, I beg to differ.

I'm finally done with my Board Exams, a milestone in everyone's life. And just like most of the kids of my age, I've got no clue what to do next. I've written thousands of exams in the last month and I will be writing thousands in the next. But here I am, not knowing what to do exactly or where to go. Seeking inspiration.
Most of my friends have already decided. Their fate lies in CET and IIT-JEE ranks. And I guess, mine too. But deep inside I know I can be different. I was always different (Not in a weird way). Well, that's what my friends say.

I'm sure everyone reaches a stage at some point in their lives where they don't know what they want. I've reached that very point.

I guess I want to write. Just travel and write about my experiences. And that's why I started to blog. Or maybe I'm trying to get noticed by NDTV good times or TLC who would sponsor me to travel the world and host their shows. I really don't know what I want.

This is my first blog. It has got abrupt pauses, I know. But I don't know where I'm going with it.

To all the people like me, who just don't know what they want,  I've got only one thing say - Sometimes it's okay to not know what you want or where you're going. It's okay to be naive. It's okay to be different. It's okay to be scared. Spontaneity is great because we're the ones who change the world. ( I know I've said a lot more that one thing. )

But really, just go with it.
