8th September,2009
Today I got a call from a long-lost college friend. He, too, had moved to Delhi for some business purpose. After blaming each other for not staying in touch with each other all this while(we were talking to each other after almost a year), we briefed each other about our endeavors in Delhi.
He asked me, rather advised me to work in a call centre to meet the expenses of living in a metro like Delhi. Though I was financially quite well off as my family could afford the expenses of my stay in Delhi till February next year, I felt some logic in his point.
It was not about the need, it was about becoming independent and confident. "You must try to look for a job suitable to your interests and career goals, if you not a call centre job.", he told.
Should I try for a part-time job or take my own time in getting used to this city, its people, its lifestyle and then go all out in realising my dreams.I am in a fix. Sometime I feel as if I should listen to the advice of my friend and should go for even a call centre job to make some quick bucks.
But the only hitch to my going for a call centre or for that matter any kind of job is my present engagement with my 3-days a week video production course at Kalindi College,DU which takes up most of my time. Besides, I plan to join a theatre also very soon.I wouldn't be able to juggle so many things at the same time if I do take up some job. Especially when I have the additional burden of doing all the household chores like cooking food, washing utensils and clothes and blah blah blah....The list is endless. So the juggler in me is not yet ready to come to the forefront.
So, how on earth am I going to find time for a job. But in Delhi, finding a part-time media job shouldn't be that much of a difficult task, I suppose.
Anyways, these are still days and I'm in no hurry to entertain such thoughts.
ONE THING AT A TIME.
One viable option could be theatre as I'm not too keen and lack the qualities also to be a TV correspondent/reporter.
Lets see how things shape up in the days to come.
I must wind up this blog post here as now is the time to help my uncle in preparing lunch.
I'll back tomorrow.
