Wisdom enough to manage thy neighbors affairs...

Last night was a repetition of three weeks ago... I cussed, I screamed and behaved like a total brat... But, none of that bothers me... What does... Is the fact that I let insignificant people get to me... Everything people weigh me in normative scales and issue judgments I get so bothered... As the mercury rises, I know it's not worth it... But I still do the damage... In many ways the year here has been a great experience... And I guess this is a part of it... But I can't help missing my old friends... As N would have put it... It's jealousy with a halo... Be with you soon... Maybe even Feb...

Forbidden

There is a charm about the forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable - Mark Twain

You know it's not for real... you know it shouldn't be... you do whats the easiest to do... live in the gray areas... rationalize and justify... but savour the moment... each and everyone. They all make up the landscape that is you...

Inflexion

Life really comes a full circle... You get to a point when you decide to move on... and just at that inflexion point.. you need to make a choice... and it all comes back... just like a full circle...

It's time like these when you really find out what your'e made of... what is the one thing that you can't do without...

For me it's self-respect... there is a subtle line between being flexible and losing your self-esteem... I've made my choice...

Route No. 3 comes full circle

Have been in touch with AD over the past few weeks... he's contemplating chucking up the Wall Street dollar salary and manhattan life to come to Gachibowli... guess that explains why he needs to talk to someone... just when I think I live most of MY life between a rock and a hard place... I do know where he's coming from...

Having said that... Bus No. 3... Me, him and Nattu-Pattu shared many a joke and loads of fights... it's wild how relationships change over time... I hope he makes up his mind and decides on G-Bowli and dude... I'll take your real-estate advice with a bit of capital raising, have been contemplating stuff on similar lines...

Heard a piece of advice from someone... I'm going to work on it for a while... and if I get 5 CDMA sigma significance (apologies PVR and ganesh)... I'll keep up the efforts... Thanks... and that's as genuine as it gets...

Something to Smile About

It's been ages since I last posted... and it would be very far from the truth if I said I didn't have much to write about... but what I am happiest about is that I was able to spend some quality time with my grandparents...

Last week I thought everything in this world was transpiring to keep me away from what I should not have... day before I thought maybe there's a sign that I don't pick up... today I know that even if it's worth trying for... it's certainly not worth worrying about... and there's comfort in today...

Life continues... I make mistakes... people exercise their birth rights of judgement... I forgive... and finally the focus blurs... you look at the bigger picture and can't help but smile...

B-School

Been a long time... it's been a hectic week 1... no end-term is suddenly a scary concept with the load of assignments and take homes... mind is just aimlessly wandering... just can't concentrate on anything today...

The week that was... 7 courses sampled... financial engineering braved without pre-req...5 course idea toyed with... sanity restored/prevailed... ELP client presentation delivered... earl grey finally found and amply stocked... cleaned my cupboard... put away last term's stuff... collected dry-cleaning from last month...

Life is going to get a whole lot complicated now... but I think it's about time I prioritized... made the first step in that direction today... didn't even see DH... too spaced out to write anymore...
