Interview !!!

I have a Microsoft interview in another half an hour. 


Point noted : In stead of writing "an interview with Microsoft" I used the phrase "Microsoft interview". To the CS folks out there - you know what I mean by a "Microsoft interview"! To those who might not really realize, you can do with a little bit of online resources here :-)


Enough of prelude here - honestly speaking I have little bit of weirdness in my stomach which might be interpreted as a stomach crunch, and ofcourse frozen toes and palms which is so typical sign of me getting tensed. I just settled in a room in library study zone, fixed my laptop and phone to charge, kept some pen, papers, water handy, took off my watch and now felt dumbfounded about what to do next. So decided to do with some random blogging - the best way to keep myself relaxed yet active.


Well someone suggested in some blog I came across that an interviewee should praise and indulge himself / herself a lot before and during the interview process. So I listened to "Chak De India" and tried to feel inspired, which worked I hope. There is no point in being nervous Neelanjana, it is just another interview you can ace - and as someone mentioned in a blog "it is people interviewing other people" yes, that's it! here you go! no need to shuttle between the study and restroom. Hold your breath, and now take a deep one, and release as you say "I can do it" and repeat again saying "I will do it" and relax with the typos - oops oops it is 2.42! Take it easy sweetheart, you have a good record with job interviews - and you are what you are - oh yes! there you go - calm yourself down - it's much easier than a roller coaster ride, because this does not give you nausea and you like this job! 


To the confused readers of this one - I usually write keeping myself in mind - so you have every rights to not understand what's really going on! 


The good point is my research is going somewhere now! and I am doing pretty well with the coursework also. The preparation for this interview was very short but I liked it a lot - it was like getting back to the basics again, and I so like it :-) Here you go girl - keep breathing deep and just hang in there! :-)
