The internship post :UCD,Dublin,Ireland--part 2
So i landed on airport and was shocked at the real first scenes ...smooches flying everywhere on airport and flirting going haywire ....i managed to get all my three bags on a trolley and hastily got out of airport...It becomes a terrible proposition when noone is there to recieve you in unknown country but i guess that's a part of ur growing up specially when u just have 700 euros in ur pocket and don't know where to head to...Fortunately i had venu's address with me and an irish guy helped me in boarding the bus.
Anyways finally i reached the place and it was one shiny chilly afternoon....slept like a baby for two days continuously in venu's apartment and later decided to make it my abode for 50 days...
Its always a good idea to know some ppl at the place u r going to else u r in deep soup...Remember in foreign country money is ur best friend !!If u have money u have all the pleasures in the world knocking at my door...
I met my supervisor on one rainy morning and immediately felt the warmth and zeal of the person ..the project was an intersting one specially suiting to my interests.
If i find work appealing i like to finish it asap and to my guide's surprise i finished the work assigned to me in a week (admittedly courtesy 2 niteouts)!
Its always good at any place to form ur first impression excellent and then u can slack down ur momentum if u feel that this much is enuf to make ur reputation ...
Its again one of the 4 golden rules that i follow religiously and i find all of them exteremly relevant in most of the situtations of life...
So as the work was finished and my guide was saying-"Don't worry we will definitely give some work to do for remaining 8 weeks!"...so i knew in back of mind that i can afford to relax as much as i want ....ultra flexible timings at office only faciliated my carnival like celebrations!
I got a very good czech roommate Petr and i will always rememeber him...as a b'ful soul ....Then followed cooking ,partying,working and my motto became party-cook-tour-sleep-work in that order!
Oops its late now!
Next post will describe my tour along with pics!
Till then keep waiting!
bbye
