I am 3rd year from a good college studying IT.I dont really like the unnecessary stress that comes with the IT job.

So I am looking to switch to a career which has either a better wlb or a better pay for a longer duration than IT.

I have loved mathematics from my JEE days and still do and have good programming knowledge in python and theoretical AI/ML stuffs including some statistics courses relevant to AIML

I want to know about the job oppurtunities in actuary.I would most probably get a job around my department median salary i.e 10lpa in my 4th year.

Should i gain some workex there and then look for actuarial jobs?How many exams should i target before my first job in actuary.

Also I heard the fresher market is cooked but experience is still in high demand,how do I best navigate the fresher market.

I have no problem studying hard in next 2 years cause the college coursework is not much.

​

to find some old phone number and stumbled upon my old youtube account.

This account was used by me when my family got it's first android smartphone ever ,old samsung galaxy model,a gift given to my dad for teaching which he inturn gave my mom to use.It was my first exposure to anything outside my small tier 2 city.

I was around 13 maybe and it was just after half yearly exams of class 6.

It was a splendid trip down memory lane,

I was going through likes history.

I heard some music literally after 8 years(NCS songs)

My first exposure to bollywood romantic songs(sanam re,ye fitoor ,etc ).

I had a friend back then , we would discover new songs on youtube and sing next day at school.

Transfer news of ISL clubs like ATK which doesnot even exist now.

Cricket funny moments.

Ronaldo ballon dor edits(still fire tho).

Dr driving and real cricket videos which was literally my first download from playstore , for which I had to beg my dad cause he thought something will happen to the mobile if I download random games.

I was ecstatic to see these many games free of cost ,I had played only san andreas and road rush on my neighbours desktop before and the pacman snake games that used to be on keypad phones.

I watched my 2nd hollywood movie on that phone using some sketchy website(harry potter first film).

I still remember the first english song i heard on youtube..'.on and on ' by daniel levi a popular ncs song

I also saw some how to talk to crush videos in my liked list lol,it reminded me of my class 6 crush...my first crush ever.We started doing that gf-bf thing in class 7 but then i changed cities ....looking back it was very silly yet very beautiful,we were in different sections and I used to patiently wait for her glimpse whenever her section would move somewhere in a long line.She was a shy girl, would just give a slight smile and wait for me after school before her van take her back,we never exchanged numbers cause she had no phone of her own and her parents just had 2 keypads.This type of silly bf-gf stuffs aint coming back ever again.I look at my small cousin and she had instagram since grade 4.

Now we are in touch but both of us are completely different persons.

I am writing this listening to NCS feel good....and i dont know why am I writing this.Maybe the carelessness of those times along with an excitement to explore the whole wide world mixed with hope and being in the absolute present is really how we are supposed to live.

I used to literally fight with my dad to not miss school anyday even if it was a stormy weather outside.I have 100% attendence in 3 years back to back not because i was a topper , it was just so much fun man.Devoid of insecurities cause honestly there was nobody who told me to be insecure about anything(unlike the modern social media).

Life has given me everything post class 6, a glimpse of all kinds of emotions from good to bad ,success and failures ,and everyone tells me it gonna be harder down the line.I wish to take responsibilities , earn some money,have more friends to enjoy my time with,some interesting work.

My intership season is starting, even though its one of the tier 1 colleges the market is fucked and I cant stop thinking about 1 year down the line let alone tomorrow.

And I have the feeling, even if I accomplish all my plans ,I would still be chasing that 13 year old boy listening to sanam re ,playing dr driving and thinking about meeting her next day somehow and singing with my friends 'yeh fitoor' which I just discovered.

Thank you for reading this shitty writing.It was for me.
