Prized Asset

It has been 7 days since my “first” “Corporate date” commenced and here I am staring at another of my “first”, a prized asset that I will treasure throughout my entire life. The first seven days have been more of dull and no work types, yet exciting in some sense. The post lunch times have been so sleepy that I have to spend more time in the washroom washing my face or the cafeteria than on my seat.

Yeah, I was talking about the “prized asset”. Hmmm. So yesterday the accounts person approached me with this asset in his hand and it looked like he was holding garland in his hands with a light violin music playing all around, all set and ready to hand me over this asset and thus welcoming me to a different class all together.

And me, I was very happy. Though my hands were shivering and I had a feeling which I can’t explain because I don’t remember how I felt at that moment. From that I could gather, I was like the king who has captured the last state remaining in the world and is now crowned as the king of the world. Ohh that feeling enthralls me and I feel like sitting in the seventh heaven. I devoted this one to my parents, God and teachers and all my friends who made me capable to have achieved this feat.

Yes that was the thing that everybody desires and dreams of while he is studying laboriously in the most exciting period of his life. It is a priceless possession for me (more precious than Sachin Tendulkar’s bat with which he hit 200* or the Queen Elizabeth’s ring or the Kohinoor diamond itself) and I wish to keep it as a memoir, but I will have to take it to the bank, no choices :). I guess by this time you must have guessed it. It is my first salary cheque.

P.S. - Those dating (corporate date) for the first time will understand me better.
