A short aside…

People been busy almost 21 hours a day over the last few days. Please hold on a while… Placement and other activities taking up the entire day… so I just dont want to write up some half-baked crap and post it…
So hold and peace.
P.S. Had the freaky experience of my life today. Saw a [...]

Ze tragedy de greek?

No sooner had the stratosphere healed the hole ripped in it by Beckham’s penalty, and France goes out with a whimper to that footballing giant Greece. I am quite happy for Greece of course. They deserved to win, and I hope they continue their brilliant performance. This will be another golden page in their footballing [...]

You’ve to hit it inside???!!!!

Dammit. Dammit. England loses out again on penalties. I felt terrible, why can’t those limeys win anything. Must be exponentially worse to be english. They have no footage of England winning anything in colour. Felt so low after the game. I didnt speak to anyone, kept seeing images of penalties being missed, Rooney’s career going [...]

Excusez Moi…

People there are two things I never do… sleep during a football match, especially a high scoring one… and not eat to my hearts content at a McDonalds. I did both yesterday. Harrowing long days with tons of things to do…
So please excuse… will put up a post by evening… or lunch time…
Till then.. Andrew [...]

Looks like another dammit day…

So many many things to do today. Placements meeting in the evening, Euro football, meeting with a prof at 6 in the morning tomorrow, the fresh batch coming in…
My back is aching from all the walking around… my feet are oblong blocks of pain after basketball yday. No breakfast or lunch today, now french [...]

WYSIWYG my gluteus maximus…

I was walking back to my room from class when I saw it peeking out from under the door. Yellow paper, green and red lettering and, from a distance, the increasingly clear background image of… god forbid… a pizza. UGH. It was yet another Dominoes flyer.
One of the greatest evils of contemporary marketing and [...]

A LEM to the slaughter…

Hello people. Kindly excuse the erratic update schedule of the blog. An MBA is proving to be a greater hindrance than I thought. So bear with me and daily columns should happen, albeit not always in the mornings…
The dance party yesterday was a rousing success. Great turn out, great enthusiasm and much dancing. And more [...]

Ugh…

There is nothing that can knock the wind out of your literary sails like a “not as good as usual” comment. Or after everything someone leaves the comment “can do better”. Ugh. Thats an unbearable one.
So I do all I can to serve you the best most wholesome bits of written nonsense daily.
I [...]

Mieux vaut tard que jamais

Yawn. Have one class today at 4:25 in the evening. So I slept like a log till mid-day, lunched, ran a virus check and here I am. Sorry for not having anything up by morning. There is only so much I will do for no money. (Though I must admit it has been hot in [...]

Its a wonderful day…

Just back from my first class… and for the next I have to read a paper called “Differentiating antecedents of organizational commitment”.
Two minutes into the paper I come across this staggering bit of prose:
“The purpose of this paper is to examine the value of March and Simon’s motivational framework in clarifying the relationships [...]

Say hello no!
