What does a person with no real goal do???Look no further than a last sem engineering student (esp. DCE) for answers. Of course there are some that intern a little longer than reqd. or those that read up the last 365 newspapers for their interviews so they don’t get caught out.

But for people like me … those that plan a career in finance there is nothing to look forward to … just a sem long wait …Of course one can go out for trips to different parts of India or get sloshed every other day … but what if your friends happen to be the interning paper reading types??? [;)] and you quit drinking some months back to control that ever expanding waistline and cholesterol… 

You just sit at home and put on extra pounds watching LOST, OTH, HEROES, PRISON BREAK… might as well have enjoyed the drinks (hee hee). You make friends of almost anyone ready to talk to you. You think too much about what a friend said. You start asking zillion-gazillion extra questions. You question your commitment to life/work. You question your decision to take up a job instead of studying further (immediately). You lookout for MS results even though you are least interested in it now because some friends also applied (and your results are delayed even though you applied earlier). You write stupid blogs and delete them before Google can web crawl and cache it!!! You gather placement reports of all institutes and compare them so you can finish a discussion of whether the brand is really soo important. You make plans about the next 5-6 years and try find advantages and loopholes in them. 

I still have more than half the sem to experience … hoping it gets a lot more interesting!!!

If anyone else has better ideas or an experience to share comment or ping me.
