“Fluctuation
in my mind..........
Seems as if all are of same kind.......
It's not that I don't know.........
It's not that I don't care.........
It's something that I can't ignore........
It's something that I can't control.......
It comes as a wave as if from the ocean.......
sweeps away all from something that is in common.......
It leaves me half on something’s behalf........
It knocks
me unconscious when I am in subconscious........”
These lines are written
by an international student, Sandesh Satyal, from MBA (Masters in Business
Administration), B.N Bahadur Institute of Management Science. He was an 1st
semester student who came to Mysore for getting an MBA degree for better opportunities in the
field of Business. Sandesh, the younger son of his family has dream to go long
way in his life and he see this degree as a way to his dream coming true.
24 year old Sandesh used to run
a software company back to his country ‘Nepal’ with three of his friends.
There he lacked some managerial skills which was necessary for his profession. So, to become an effective manager and
gain managerial skills he came to India to continue with his studies. Before coming to India, he worked as a lower level
officer in companies in his country ‘Nepal’. But he has desire to go to the
higher position and to achieve that he needed higher degree. “To reach my desire
goal, I need to complete my MBA”, he said.
He could choose some
other country, but he didn’t want to make a long distance with his family.
“India is near to my country. So, whenever I want, I can visit my family. I
love my family a lot” he said. On his opinion if he would go to other
countries, it might not get opportunity to visit his family frequently. “I saw
my friends coming once to my country in 7 years to see their family” he added.
Sandesh is staying in
Mysore with four other Nepali guys in a flat. All other guys are from the
‘Mysore University’. They divide all their works equally among them. Everyone
has a routine schedule to do their work. They also have routine for cooking,
everyone have their own day of cooking food. “I am a big lazy cook. But I have
to cook according to my day here” he told. He can cook food, even though he
misses their ‘Nepali’ food, ‘Momo’.
“Here in the institute
we have enough equipment; like projector which we lack in our country” he
praised. He likes the standard of education here. He likes the way teacher are
giving lecture and teaching lessons. But he is disappointed with the old/aged lecturers.
On his opinion, “Some teachers, especially the young teachers are very
interactive. They show different types of corporate examples and make the class
interesting. The old teachers are very boring.”
Though
he praised the standard of education, but he is facing some problems in the
institute. “Sometimes teachers and classmates talk in ‘Kannada’ (the state
language of Karnataka State ‘Kannada’). Some people think I am local and start
talking in ‘Kannad’, that irritates me” he claimed. Moreover, he is disappointed
with the behavior administration. “Staff of our department come and sit in the
office, take tea and get out at 5.They never listen students complain, nothing.
They don’t work on time” he added. He is also frustrated with the food in the
food court. On his opinion, the food court doesn’t have variety of food, only
one-two items per day they serve.
Sandesh
has obsession with bike riding. While he was a child, he told his father about
his fascination on bike and convey the interest of learn bike riding. His
father taught him riding bike and he started his bike riding when he was at 6th
standard. Back to his country ‘Nepal’ he used to do stunt and broke his bike
several times. “I am a rough rider. Whenever I ride, no one of my friend sits
back, because they are afraid of my speed” he told. He had accidents 2-3 times,
but even he is so obsessed on bike riding that he never bothers about it.
Although he had accidents but he never had any scratches regarding bike riding
and he told it very proudly. Then he shared a story on his bike riding. “One
time I rolled 6-7 ft. I just get up, got into the bike and just went. People
were so amazed looking at me. Then I went to mechanic and ask my friends for
loan. Then I repaired the bike and went home. No one ever knew yet” he said in a delighted way.
Kathmundu
guy Sandesh Satyal has planned to move in India. He thinks there is full of
resource in India. So, if he gets enough opportunities, he will move in
Bangalore after two years. But that will only happen if he gets a satisfying
job and salary their otherwise he will be back to Nepal. Going back to his
country he is planning to open his own venture.
This
MBA guy has lots of dreams ahead his mind. He dreams to have his own venture or
manage big ‘IT’ Company. “My dream job is to manage a very very very very very
big ‘IT’(Information Technology) company” he expressed with lots of desire on
his eyes. He wants to have a big Bungalow, two to three cars, three to four bikes of his choices and a peaceful life, “And also 1 wife, not 3-4, like my choice of cars and bikes.
One is enough to spoiling my life” he laughed.
Sandesh
Satyal writes poems during his free time. Whenever he feels complication,
problems in his life and wants to escape from this, he takes a notebook and
start writing poems. He gets a kind of peace while writing poems. “While I
write a poem I go into another state of mind. My poems are always related to
fluctuation of emotions. I get peace reading them again after writing those
poems” he stated.
“I
have passion for music. I was a great metal listener. But now the interest
diverted to sentimental Hindi songs. According to the time it changes” he said.
He also loves playing guitar. He did not learn it from any professionals. He
learnt the basics from his friends and later he took knowledge from internet.
He pooled, “I find out some tutorials in the internet, I practiced it and
learnt how to play.”
Poem
lover Sandesh Satyal loves writing poem but he never prefers to take it as a
profession. On his opinion, writing poem will never support for his livelihood
and it will never help him to get the life of his dream. “Money might not be
everything in life, but money is most important part of that everything. So,
though I am interested in writing poem, but I don’t want to be a poet” he
admitted. So, he just wants to go through the surface, don’t want to go deep
into writing poem. “I write some simple poems and I like to do that. It’s a way
to pass my free time” he added. He just loves to write poems and post it on
‘Facebook’. People give appreciation and comments and he is happy with that.
Sandesh
Satyal is an example of a normal Nepali boy who comes to India to study. He has
lots of dream ahead his life and he seems ambitious to fulfill his dreams. He
is an ICCR (Indian Council for Cultural Relations) scholar who wants to work as
a professional in an organisation and end up with his own Venture. Along with
study he has passion for music, writing poems and also reading books which go
totally opposite to his academic interest. He chooses his own path of life and
walking towards it. He is trying to make a better future for him and ensure a better life for his family.
