Teens to Toons

Sean(Robin Williams' Character): Thought about what you said to me the other day, about my painting. Stayed up half the night thinking about it. Something occurred to me... fell into a deep peaceful sleep, and haven't thought about you since. Do you know what occurred to me? Will (Matt Damon's Character): No. Sean: You're just a kid, you don't have the faintest idea what you're talkin' about. Will: Why thank you. Sean: It's all right. You've never been out of Boston. Will: Nope. Sean: So if I asked you about art, you'd probably give me the skinny on every art book ever written. Michelangelo, you know a lot about him. Life's work, political aspirations, him and the pope, sexual orientations, the whole works, right? But I'll bet you can't tell me what it smells like in the Sistine Chapel.

Two years work-ex ... Infosys... Mathematics Honours... St. Stephens... IIT Kharagpur... Tata Motors... BDO(Block Development Officer) .. 9 years work-ex... Unable to formulate a linear equation.... an 11x11 matrix... I know it's tough but it ain't impossible... But they wrote a mail saying it is beyond them... that is how disappointed I am... That is why I am proud of being an IITK alumni... That is why I walk with a straight head... That is why I am scorned.. that is why I am hated.. that is why I am not one of them... I would prefer to die than to say a "no" without proving that it is beyond proof... It is disappointing and it is tragic and it means I am doing the economics project all alone... that means I am putting in too much time into this project.. that means I need to reassess a lot of things.. that means I need to rethink my approach to people... I don't want to go back and become the same "thing" I was earlier... I want to act and not react.....
