One Small Step towards Achieving a Big Dream !

This is my 'Hello World !' post in the bloggers' land !! :)

After toying with the idea for a very long time, I have finally started blogging !! :) on a very special ocassion, btw..

Exactly Four years back, I took a decision- A decision to follow my heart and enroll in the Bachelors of Engineering (Electronics and Telecommunications Engg) programme at Sinhgad College of Engineering, affiliated to the University of Pune. Tomorrow, I'll be taking that one last step - one small step - give my final exam - to successfully complete all the University requirements and finally get the B. E. Degree :) :D !

The whole experience of Engineering has been a bitter sweet one ! With a lot of stuggles and hardships, disappointments and achievements, lows and highs, hard work and fun, its been one long journey ! Along the way, I have grown up as an individual, made some really awesome friends (which I am really proud of !) and luckily managed to find some truly fascinating areas of professional interests ! :) I still remember, as a First year Undergraduate student, I was full of enthusiasm to explore the realms of Electronics Engineering. Today, when I look back and see how things have turned out, I would be lying if I said I am not satisfied with whatever I achieved :) Its not been anything spectacular (and much lesser than probably what I *could have* done), but it was the best I could do in the given circumstances. The *could haves* will always be there, no matter whatever one achieves. So, I would rather not let that take away the feel-good factor as of now ! :D To look back at where I was four years back and then to look at where I am today, I am quite happy with my progress !! :)

Finally, before I am off to study for the final exam, I am dedicating this quote to the glorious Engineering Days !

'Perseverantia Omnia Vincit !!' which means 'Perseverance conquers all things !!'

Truly, Perseverence it has been... :)
