appRAIS(E)al - Part 2

Part one was the sad part of the story, part two is the traditional Happy Ending!

Yes...today I finally got the mail for my new compensation...and man..it ROCKS!!!

Its way too much ...far beyond my wildest imagination.....

For a person with just 10 months of work ex (as of date), the hike is mind-boggling..

and all i can remember are my manager's words when I asked him about the raise last time..."you won't be surprised by the hike, you'll be shocked!!!"

Shocked ....? Yes I am....

Happy .... I very much am....

And so is my mom...she is on cloud nine....and should be.

Its been many years since she's been there.

Something I'd say...I'm here today coz of u only, ma! I know u don't surf the net, and u definitely won't see this, but I just want to say its not my hardwork, but yours. Its you who has put me here, and I won't disappoint u ma....

Promise....

ciao.

P.S: Oh, and for all the party seekers, you are invited to a place of your choice at a time of my choice :-) .... so tell me the place..i'll tell u the time!!!
