Doosri barish

yes it's been 20 odd days and we had no rain. The temperature had topped up to 44 plus degree. For those in US it was Celsius about 115 F.

Anyway it's been 20+ days I have not written, a lot has happened that I would like to summarize...

I had gotten sick during my exams with loose motions, fever, infection and allergies.. Yes I'm talking about one person having all of these at same time... But managed well and I'm back in action..

We finished exams in 2nd week of June. two a day for three days .. Oh boy it's fun .. I have not seen something challenging like this for a long time .. Last time GSMLS project..

After we finished we cancelled our plans for a 2.5 days vacation..As I was sick and than D. Anyway no regret, 2.5 days let me rejuvenate..

One thing I forgot to mention in my earlier blogs, I have been actively participating in a lot of activities besides school. One of that is industry interaction event, we had a CEO of a private Equity firm visit us. Another memorable session of life about how deals are done behind the scene.

It's been about three weeks in term II and I'm loving it, finance is fun, macro economics is just too good.. ofcourse all other subjects are great too.. Now I can listen to mark haynes (CNBC) and understand when he speaks CPI, PPI, GDP and Valuations ... I mean just understand not do anything with that info.. :-)

This is my story so far for last three weeks.

Hope to get back in writing mode.. stay tuned.

Pehali Barish (First rain in Monsoon)

I mean to write this blog a few days ago, had been caught up some much in work and other tasks.

The monsoon has arrived and we missed the first rain. Yes we were studying in the class when it was raining. A kid inside me wanted to leave the class and just go run and get wet.

The song was running through my mind "Yeh daulat bhi le lo, yeh shauhrat bhi le lo, bhale chin lo mujh se meri jawani, magar mujhu ko lauta do bachpan ka sawaan, woh kagaz ki kashti woh barish ka pani." ( Take away all the fame and wealth, take away my youth, all I want is the monsoon rain the game of paper ships".

I was this close to achieving it ... it was not meant to be :-)

Everything else is good otherwise. I'll be 32 in few days. I am 32 times knowledgeable in last two months. The school is fantastic so is studying here. Looking forward to final nine months. A new me to born .
