Like I told someone the other day, I am regularly irregular. I post once a month. On trivial things. Like websites and marriages. February has been quite eventful so far. Good events and bad events. Bad first. Of course. Increased pressure at work. The “recession” or “econamageddon” as someone called it on NPR’s Planet Money [...]

July 5th, 2006 · No Comments · poetry
Some posts in a long time. Class A Its apparently a beautiful morning Whose beauty is lost on me Instead of sleeping it out This lecture I’ve come to see Pickled brains and confused minds They present ideas so crazy They make you pull out your hair For most its all too hazy Having borne [...]

May 3rd, 2006 · No Comments · poetry
Something I wrote to while away the time as I was waiting for breakfast. Just a mundane life and lots of work to do Odd hours at work And no socialisation too I feel like a fish out of water To use the cliched old phrase But this has to be the summer of content [...]

April showers bring Mayflowers March showers bring me joy The grey sky above the campus towers I feel again like a little boy. The rains remind me so much of home and of Goa. So I went around with a cam (thanks Jai) and took some pics. Feel free to comment on the pics and [...]

I had heard a lot about the “man” well and I am happy to say that he stands shorter off the ground than I do. So we went to the IMI bizquiz on Saturday which was also convocation day for the students passing out from MDI. And when we got there we learnt that the [...]
