Work, fun, food - the past few weeks have been hectic! With due apologies to my blog, here's a small post on how Microsoft changed the way I look at things. The top ten things I learnt in two months:
1. Never, ever, ever underestimate yourself. Over estimates are bad too, from what I've seen. Gist is, people see you the way you see yourself.
2. Be who you are. People will look through you whatever you do, so why act?
3. Make sure everything you do has a reason, however stupid it may be. You should be able to answer questions about your own life and why it is the way it is.
4. Never hesitate to learn from others! You will actually remember it forever.
5. Educated guesses are good. Wild guesses are not.
6. College is absolutely different from a work place. You will probably not learn so much in such a short time in college.
7. Don't give up on your passion, ever. Make time for it, even if it is just an hour or two every day.
8.Asking questions is good, but only ask when Bing doesn't answer it. (Sorry, Google. I'm loyal to my company!)
9. When you run out of ideas, you have to think up of some idea anyway.
10. Creativity is a gift. Not everyone has it. I don't know the work-around for this, sadly.
Yep, all of these have been said already, but hello, this is my blog. :)
So, with one week of internship left and a slew of presentations and interviews pending, I'm going to be busier than ever! Let's see how it will feel to go back to college after seeing the world!
So long!
