2 hrs before take off...

July 16'th(05) -->Oct 8'th(05)-->Feb 27'th (06) The day i broke my arm at college inn , I knew that the incident happened as if it was all preplanned. I sat down fighting depression,homesickness and all the negative thoughts that would surface everymorning . The only support that i could cling on to was faith that all things happen for good. The 3-4 weeks prep for GMAT gave a not so great looking number on the scorecard.Some people suggested i take another shot at the test.Still I stood by my faith that if July 16'th happened for no fault of mine ,then something good is in store. Today morning I woke up to start working at 6.00 A.M .I saw this gmail pop up flashing that i have made it to ISB PGP Class of 2007.For a moment i thought it was a nice dream ,coz the results were expected to be out tomorrow. I didn't react for a while ,all that happened was a tear drop falling on my mouse pad! Woke up my roommate and thumped my fist in the air..poor guy he was startl...

Its 5.13 a.m on a Sunday morning.I saw Mahendra Singh Dhoni in action for the first time..India pulled off a victory chasing in the so called trademark fashion in the Hutch Series. The thing that impressed me about this win was the attitude shown by Yuvraj and Dhoni during the chase.Yuvraj has matured ,I never doubted his talent esp after seeing him in Sydney making 140 odd against the Aussies in the VB series. MS Dhoni is raw talent...awesome bhp when he's revved up..The four sixes esp the last one off Mohammed Sami was a sight worth the night out i managed! This lad has potential ...I wish he smashes the Aussies at Perth or MCG in the coming years in a similar fashion...Go Dhoni Go!!

Philadelphia was a heavy dessert to top the Idiyappan that we cooked today. Tom Hanks was apt , Denzel Washington was his at his funny best trying to stay put against all the non hetrosexuals hitting on him. At least the movies was not as depressing as the Million Dollar Baby I decided to go for the Starbucks kick next and guess what a pigeon spat crap on me..what a memorable experience...Idiyappan,followed by Philadelphia and Pigeon shit to top it all... ...Jabrooniiiiiii!! It can only happen to me but i have had this experience once before .I was riding to my tutions when i was in 12'th grade and a crow spat his/her crap right into my left eye...Now i leave it to the reader to work out the probability of that happening geez:-)

Reactions after we hiked up Little Si last week ..Hmmm Can't figure out the way to upload that video yet:-)

Last week was unusual..it rained forever nothing unusual in Seattle,but i was outdoors most of the time. Now thats drastic change in behavior ..last august i had one month at home ..hardly stepped out of E127 Chelsea Square when it was sunny outside. Watched a few movies Munich is a good movie from Mr Speilberg after some time ,its a long movie but the Mossad --> CIA --> KGB --> Palestine plot was very informative . Memoirs of a Geisha has a pretty Ziyi Zhang and some good photography . Rang De Basanti ..the talk of the town was 'Ok' .The media hype and reviews were playing in my mind when i watched it ,sadly I felt the movie was a drag esp after the intermission. Aaamir Khan lived upto the expectations..I wonder what would have happened to 'Rang De' minus Mr Khan ..Still a welcome change in Bollywood Yan and I climbed up Little Si ..yes i have conquered a peak ( read it as hill ...).The 6 miles round trip ...in wet weather ,after having put on 3-4 kilos thanks...
