15 years I waited - nay, procrastinated. A demanding job, wife, kids, more work, a fledgling business of my own : they all became convenient excuses : very convincing when I tell myself 'I have no time for this !' So, for 15 years after completing my bachelors I waited. But... the itch would not go away. I hungered and pined to get back to my studies : and complete my Masters at long last. But how ? I could not find a program that allowed me the flexibility to study - but also work at the same time. Sri Lanka does not really have any 'self study' programs just yet - and searching for something on line - I came across RKC - so, here I was...
What gave me the final push ? Well, that's another post !
Thought I will share a small poem I did as an introduction for the Culture and Innovation class...
Vidusha Nathavitharana is my name
Please note I am a Sir, and not a Dame
Fifteen long years it took - which is a shame
For me to do my studies again, hence here I am writing this poem lame !
Married with two kids, a daughter and a son
I canoe, hike and camp to have fun
As an HR consultant my own little firm I run
Log on to our blog ( www.http://high5consultancy.blogspot.com ) to check out what we've done
Trepidation is what I feel
But from excitement I reel
One layer at a time, this course I plan to peel
A ton of time I know I will have to steel
The first subjects were really tough
I guess this will be the same, hopefully, not as rough
Still very sore, and formal learning does not come easy
About all those citations and bibliographies I still feel queazy
So, here I am - a warm hi to all of you
Lively banter and healthy debate I hope will hold true
Whatever mark I get, I have learnt a thing or two
Which I am honestly glad about, 'cause it helps me in what I do
Greetings and salutations - let's start our journey now
See you all in the forum, for now, I take a bow !
