Oh yes it does.. It was just sometime ago that I was going through the whole application process. And now it seems to be that time again.
Work had been hectic the past few weeks. Completed a major task at work so things are better now and seem to be slowing down now.
Got a new MP3 player, a SanDisk Sansa Fuze

I’ll soon be joining a short course called Social Entrepreneurship Outreach Program (SEOP) by a group known as Center for Social Initiatives and Management (CSIM).
Oh and I’ve been reading quite a few books as usual. Quick list of books I’ve read recently:
- Making Money – Terry Pratchett
- Thief of Time – Terry Pratchett
- Neverwhere – Neil Gaiman
- Smoke and Mirrors – Neil Gaiman
- Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch – Niel Gaiman and Terry Pratchett
- Watchmen – Alan Moore
- The Discworld Graphic Novels: The Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic – Terry Pratchett
- Johnny and the Bomb – Terry Pratchett
- The Color of Magic
- Monstrous Regiment – Terry Pratchett
- The Fall of Hyperion – Dan Simmons
Oh and I think there were a few more but I don’t remember. I’m sure you can imagine why
These are in the past 4-5 months (except the Watchmen Graphic novel)
More later.. Hopefully..

Man you shouldn’t print such a long list of books read. Have you considered what it does to the morale of your readers?
That Making Money book seems damn interesting! Moist von Lipwig..hehehe. He’s mocking Ludwig von Mises I presume.

Me likes watchmen!
And Busy man, make some time!

@Pramod: Hehe.. Well I thought it was pretty safe since I don’t HAVE too many readers
Making money is hilariously funny. Especially those well versed with Discworld. But I have no idea about Ludwig Von Mises so can’t really say if Lipwig is a take on him.
@Swe: I don’t know. Somehow I’ve found the story overly hyped. Somehow did not connect as much as the ravers rave over it.
Well busy I was, am not and again will be soon. My apps are starting which is going to now take a lot more of my time

One of my friends did a thorough app process recently and even got into a college. That effort alone convinced me to stay away from the MBA process

Wow.. Thanks for the link. Perhaps I’ll email him for some pointers
And you now have to help with my essays too… Please.. Pretty please
Ps. For some reason, your comment always gets moderated.. Are you doing something funky?
June 16th, 2009 at 1:38 am
Sure, feel free to mail him!
Hmmmm..Ok I will agree to review your essays. But I expect to be in London for another month so can’t be sure how useful I can be
No idea why my comment goes into mod queue. I am using the latest FF on WinXp. Let me see, this time I’ve ticked the Notify by email checkbox.

I’ve read 6 novels in Watchmen. I like Rorschachs narration the best

@Pramod: Yeah will do.. And well my essays will be in some form in another month so you have a bit of time
And no idea what did the trick but now your comments go through unmoderated..
@Swe: What 6 novels?
