5 W's and 1 H and an Island

Many times we have been bugged by the 5 W's and 1 H,
What
Where
When
Why 
Who
and 
How


I would like my readers and friends to be a little patient with my writing. :P
You would know why. :D
Do we always end up with the answers?Its 4:30 am in the morning and I am driven to write down something.Going with my maiden post I want to thank Sarba Roy for always being an inspiration and Guide.I want to put down random thoughts because I think the title of my writing would channelize what I would write.
They say life really changes after you join a B-School.Well it has changed for me as well.As this is my first post I would like my friends and readers to get a sneak peak about me and my SIMPLE life a bit.
Hey Folks Soumya here,finally rekindling my passion of writing.
I am currently pursuing MHRM at XIMB.I have lived almost all the years of my life in Bhubaneswar and I love the city.
Coming to the point,why I chose to write on this topic is because I feel most of us are faced with these questions pretty often in our life.
Let me make this simple,these are basically confessions we all have.
WHAT am I doing?
Well this ones the most difficult question.Although with full consciousness we choose to do what we are doing right now we would have definitely asked ourselves this question.
Before coming to XIMB I had a job of a software engineer working on a good development project,life was easy,but I chose to do MBA,a dream I nurtured right from my college days.But the pressure that the surroundings of a B-School has put me in has taken its toll on me.Although MBA culture comes with this but I ask myself at times WHAT am I doing here.

WHERE the hell am I?
This also happens,although a bit irrational,this questions also bugs us.

WHEN is everything or at least somethings gonna change?
This is where all my imaginations dies,I give up or give in easily and I start cribbing about my situation.

WHY is all this happening?
Another irrational question and ya let me again crib about it.

WHO am I supposed to turn to now.
Extreme situations  :P :P

and Finally 

HOW am I gonna solve this.

Thank you for bearing with me.As a student of MHRM I am keen on understanding psychology a bit more than the general MHRM subjects.We face these questions often but the gap between WHAT and HOW is widened by the other 4 W's.Lets be honest being Jugadu doesn't always help.We gotta do our stuff on our own many times.Just that if we are not left with the option of jugaad we don't go from WHAT to HOW that easily.
The assignments,the classes,the projects,the competitions,the exams,life has become a marathon now.
I cant even read the books I brought with me.
Within all this when do I introspect as to what I would really want to do instead of all this.
I would like to escape into a deserted beautiful island,where there would be a great resort,with a personal theater where I would watch all my 'On My List' movies and enjoy the best food I can ever have in life,and not get fat,keep writing reviews of the movies I watch and the books I read,do bungee-jumping,wear the best clothes,party a lot,sky dive,deep sea dive,well we all want our islands and we best know how we want our islands to be. :D

Having sleep is a privilege these days.Its been long that we would talk to ourselves like this and imagine our islands.
So lets imagine a little more so that we dont find ourselves helpless and we can excuse ourselves for things slipping out of our hands at times,its not easy and not possible to hold on to everything.If we don't be patient with  ourselves then undoubtedly or island would be lost,it would drown.Its very important to stay connected to ourselves a little bit even within all that haste and jam-packed life.
The island of our imagination helps us narrow down the gap between WHAT and HOW.For the island to exist for us,we have to survive to see it one day.So lets sometime out for ourselves each day.Do something that drives you,like writing,reading,sketching,singing,dancing,even though its for 10 mins,no matter how bad it is :P,like this post of mine :P

Love,Live,Be PATIENT and have the Last Laugh 


Thank you.
:)
