i have discussed NOC stuff with Rohit since he knows a lot of NOC returns and he himself is one of those who are interested to go for it.

i do not know, but the first time I have heard about NOC (from the stories of Brian Cu that has been scattered all over and for a sec made me pretty small when juxtaposed with his achievements), I was the least interested. I do not know why exactly but I can still remember how I did not seriously entertain a thought about it. I just said a passe reaction to seemingly cool stuff which didn't interest me as much: "hey cool can I do that too?" and then later I forgot about it. NOC is interesting for the fact that you can go to Silicon Vally, Bio valley and even to Sweden and then go around the bigger continent but anyway that fact alone did not trigger this great determination in me... I do not know why again even if I have this somewhat wanderlust character in me.

I do not regret not applying even though my last chance already went away. For some reason I am at peace about it.

Maybe I am not meant to go there but that is not my assurance.. It is more like, I know I wont go there through NOC but through something else. Not for work but maybe for passion or maybe solely for tourism... that of which I want to know but I have to wait...

The world is beautiful but I better set my priorities right.

I better do that... =)

hopefully, I would be able to...

ja ne! NOC
