Update!

I am so sorry for the delay, I have officially lost track of time! The other day me and a friend were trying to remember what month it was!
Anyway, its been really long I blogged, so just though I'll give you guys an update of what I've been upto. The first week of May was a real killer as we had to run through the presentation we prepared to show the company we were interning for and the professors ofcourse. That went well, better than I'd hoped for infact! Our team was awarded the best team prize for presentation and performance by te Management Department!! We will get a certificate and a book token at the Graduation Ceremony in December. The rest of May was a bore, there was my birthday, even that day spent working:( The last few weeks were spent searching for an apartment as our contract with the university accomodation was ending first week June. We did find a superb place, and after squabbles and misunderstandings, we finally rented it. I moved out of Kelvinhaugh Street 10th June. Will miss that place.
Meanwhile, the dreaded dissertation has begun, which I have not even given an ounce of thought on as yet. This I am sure will haunt me soon, so I plan to start asap! We had a day trip to Isle of Bute a few weeks back which was another point of consequence in the last few boring weeks. Scotland is truly beautiful.
It is July, the countdown has begun. Just two more months and I would be considered a ""MASTER"" in international management. Job applications are on in full swing but somehow only rejections are what I am getting to see right now, sadly. If anyone has a spare job, please contact me!
My playlist is not working....arrrrgghhhhhh!

Stirling retreat

A well deserved outing out of Glasgow, after three and a half months here saw me and the mates going to Stirling, a city, well, a very small city an hours drive from here. Not that we could have chosen a better day for the trip, the mercury plummetted to a bone chilling -5C! (Pic:In an animated discussion with his royal highness while the jester looks on) The main attraction of Stirling, the Stirling Castle, the place of cornation of the legandary Queen of Scotts, and witness to the wars faught by the Scottish heros William Wallace and Robert the Bruce against their English counterparts. The scenic beauty of the palace took us a while to absorb, so did the entry fee to the castle (still not recovered from it)! Well, it brings me back to our roots, as Indians. Not that we didn't build castles and forts similar to this one if not better, my point focusses on our stingy attitude. Having paid the amount for the castle entry, we cribbed on the fact whether we should pay an addit...

Da da daaaaa!

Have you ever thought about what scares you? Not the spooks scare, but the really scary scare, the type which makes you rethink what you are doing in life, make changes to offset the fear. Off late, I have got a few of those scary thoughts, which have made me change a few things, re-examine a few aspects of my life and re-arrange a few loose ends here and there. The first shocker came not long ago in the form of a health concern. It completely blew me catching me off guard. Its funny how all your worries and stress vanish away when the health of a person is in context. The nearest thought in the mind screams, dictating that you just stay alive, the rest we'll take care of! By god's grace and everyone's good wishes, we're back to fit and fighting stance this moment, aware of the fact that if this issue was hidden for a while, could have been drastic! The second incident which sparked me off is that of my future. I cannot get myself to explain in words what I am feeling, ...

Death the Leveller

THE glories of our blood and state Are shadows, not substantial things; There is no armour against Fate; Death lays his icy hand on kings: Sceptre and Crown Must tumble down, And in the dust be equal made With the poor crooked scythe and spade. Some men with swords may reap the field, And plant fresh laurels where they kill: But their strong nerves at last must yield; They tame but one another still: Early or late They stoop to fate, And must give up their murmuring breath When they, pale captives, creep to death. The garlands wither on your brow, Then boast no more your mighty deeds! Upon Death's purple altar now See where the victor-victim bleeds. Your heads must come To the cold tomb: Only the actions of the just Smell sweet and blossom in their dust. By James Shirley
