Finally, bringing myself out of that slumber and laziness just took 10 minutes of looking at a 37 year old home maker's musings in her blog. Marriage, 3 kids and an interior design hobby and a good blog mind. I was bowled over. Talk about multi-tasking! Though very trivial and subjective, it did what i wanted it to do- to give me a shock and wake me up.While the whole geek world is going gaga over the multi-tasking of the IOS iPhone 4, I took that momentary pause to examine whether multi-tasking was more important in a phone or in our lives.
A very bad habit of engineers in general and me in particular, is the penchant nature to defy all odds and bear the tiniest detail in our scrutiny. The thing that goes for a toss is the ability to look out beyond the window and juggle with many tasks. Alas! I always wanted to be a writer, engineer, debater and a good social activist. To my credit, I have individually made my earnest attempts in being a good student of each field over the years. But the occasional news of people achieving that omnipresence in the same lifetime as mine , puts me in deep introspection.Time is so little and there are a zillion things I want to do and hence a zillion equations exist. But,I still cannot find a nice equilibrium where all the variables meet.And here I was more worried about the ability to do be able to browse the internet and also play a game on my iPhone!!
Whether Andriod and Iphone trigger the multitasking blitzkreig in mobile world or not, my eyes are opened! From a pre-occupied Recent College Graduate, I am going to be a Self Occupied College Graduate :P. Speaking of which, its volleyball time and here I comeeeeeee
