Bingo. Valid point. I guess these people should stop asking about career plans. They think it is concern but it certainly isn't.
@curiousmoron
absolutely!! :)
i get loads of those questions... and heck they never cease to annoy...
this is another question i used to get a lot of in the past...
"Viscom? romba interestinga irukkume? Apdina exacta enna?"
@ kk iyer
lol. i still dunno what viscom is all about... bt yeah, sounds interesting!
i've spent three years pondering the same thing... nobody knows what viscom is all about... it's a deep, dark mystery. sometimes it's best to leave those mysteries unsolved...
@kk iyer

@cheri
