Everyday when I go home, I ask myself did today I did something like that which can answer my question who am I?

I was born on 26^th Dec, 1987 at my native place named as Gidderbaha.Whenever I tell about my native place to anybody, the first question comes from them or in their mind. Does gidderbaha has so many “Jackals” (as in Hindi we call gidder) and I always replied or you can say ready to reply, don’t you see Lion standing in front of you, but in my mind I ask myself Who am I?

I did my schooling from my native place. I started understanding the people nature when I was in 9^th class. I used to get average marks, however I was good in sports. I used to play the games a lot. I have played most probably each and every game in our school as cricket, football, basketball, volleyball, handball, badminton, even I played kho-kho as well. Then I got a comment from my friends that you are “Jack of all trades and Master of none”. I accepted the challenge and won a district championship of Badminton. I was quite close to my physical education teacher. I still remember one of my conversations with him. He used to wear sleeveless cardigan in summers and half sleeves shirts in winters. I asked him in winters don’t you feel cold?  He had just told me, it all depends on you how you take the thinks. How you adjust yourself in the environment, and how you respond to the challenges. He has also urged me to think “who you are and what you want to be?”

After my tenth standard I left my native place and went to city beautiful Chandigarh for 11^th and 12^th STD and to prepare for engineering entrance exams like IIT, AIEEE, CET. But it was whole disaster, I don’t want to give any excuses like as I am first time away from home, I was not able to adjust..Blah blah. Only thing is I didn’t take my career seriously and was not able to clear any of the tests with good marks. I was lost in the world, I was totally depressed, and I asked my self who am I?

I got support from my parents and friends, which given me the hope to try more and fortunately I got admission in Punjabi University, it is second university in the world which is named after a Language.

In college I had lot of friends among them even I got my lifetime buddies. In college I started building my profile with a positive thought and belief in a god, as god is my best friend. During college I got my most memorable moments and many names as like Gandhi, troubleshooting man. I have enjoyed each and every part of the hostel life. Even I and my friends presented one presentation on hostel life. I used to see everyday stories like “one more peg” however it never happened with me because I don’t drink. My performance graph raised in every field, even in the field of romance as I got my first and last girl friend during my college life. When I came in the third year I started participating in the techfest organized in various colleges. And I remember one of the incidences which happened when I participated in the techfest. I got a mail from the organizer in which he had congratulated me for my paper acceptance and that mail was addressed as like Ms. Sonal, Congratulations your paper has been accepted and  I replied him I don’t know how many hearts I am breaking, but a guy is coming over there. Don’t worry this time I have not asked who am I?

After attending many techfests I realized I don’t stand anywhere. Outer world is smart enough in every aspects and then I asked myself who am I?

Then time came for training semester, fortunately I got chance to appear for the interview in Interra. And on 17^th October 2008 in evening 7.15, I got call from Debolina congratulating me for selection. I was very happy and shared my feelings with family and friends had a party that night. Then I completed rest of the semester and came to the InterraIT on 6^th Jan 2009. After joining Interrait I came to know there is lot to go, and I started my learning curve from scratch. After 6 months I got my joining offer and accepted the same with positive steps towards my career. After one year of completion when I got a Star Rookie of the Year award I thought yes I did something in last year which has answered at least today Who am I.

But still everyday when I go home, I ask myself  whether today I did something like that which can answer my question Who am I?
