Tempus Fugit
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. It’s flash based and really cool. My colleague thinks it is very cute (yes she is a girl ;) )
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 :D You can see his sigh of relief here: http://vinaygmurthy.livejournal.com/37290.html
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 :D
Ps. For some reason, your comment always gets moderated.. Are you doing something funky?
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?
