I need a real break honestly sometimes from this frustrating phase. What do you feel should I do?
So as you all know I am searching for a job (which is frustrating) as I just completed my MBA very recently in late 2025. But yeah it's been harder especially in my field Analytics due to competition, harder job market and many more reasons here in our city Bangalore in India even though it's a major IT city. This week also I had literally 2 interviews on one day for real and I am worried whether I will finally get either of them and it gets stressful. And yes I am going out twice or sometimes thrice every week to Central cosmopolitan areas of our city Bangalore and even socializing with women at times both Indian and foreign expat women which is fun and I definitely enjoy these cross cultural interactions. In this frustrating phase just try to feel socially alive especially as a 25 year old male and I enjoy these cross-cultural interactions. But yeah I need a real break.
The last time I have been to my hometown Siliguri in West Bengal state of India was in September 2024 and since then we haven't been there. That's simply because my uncle(dad's elder brother who is a doctor) is trying to make another floor above in the house which was originally my grandpa's home and both grandparents are dead now. The house was already renovated in 2014-2015 to a 2 storeyed building but uncle wanted another floor above. But it seems like the construction started last year itself and he has been saying that it might get completed by Sept 2025, maybe October 2025, Maybe Nov 2025 but it never got over and it's May 2026 now and uncle is still like the construction and all isn't done. Also I live with parents so will go with them and they are like until the floor isn't completed we can't go and for some reason they cant stay in Uncle's home even though both uncle and aunt are doctors.
They still don't know if it will get over by Sept or Oct even this year. Idk why it's taking forever to complete the floor even though Siliguri is a tier 2 city. I need a 2 weeks break to somewhere like there. Recently we went for 2-3 days trips around Bangalore like to Sakleshpura and Wayanad and they were great but it was just 2-3 days and the environment was still broader South Indian and not much difference in weather from Bangalore. Whereas Siliguri is closer to North Eastern part of India and Dooars and closer to foothills of the Eastern Himalayas so there is an environmental change. So many beautiful hill stations like Mirik, Darjeeling, Peling, Kalimpong etc, actual cooler climate in the hills, authentic momos etc. Thats the break I want for 2 weeks and then return to Bangalore with a fresh mind. But this ongoing construction of the floor is making it harder and I feel angry about that too like how long.
