Well man this is a redo msg.. i posted and the session had expired.. so am all over repeating it again.. ( i jus hate to repeat !!) well today too not much at work so was having a look around the online Stock broking sites HDFCSec, ICICIDirect, ShareKhan, IndiaBulls. Well looks like i would be a heavy duty investor in the market probably not knw but after my MBA.. but am really planning for an entry into the MFunds segment pretty soon.. so on the scout for some info about the funds...

Well then gave a call to TIME, IMS and Career Forum.. to enquire and probably i hope am at the final leg on my choice of the institute.. Well the choice has finally narrowed to IMS class or TIME class. The problem is i would be missing the weekend classes every 3 weeks or so whn i go home.. well tatz too costly.. But then i need to decide whether i can rein in my laziness and go all out at home.. and then enroll for the IMS Cat Cruncher course for the SIMCATs and the strategies.. There is something strange which has been going on since i had come here one yr back.. progressively by vigour to learn latest tech stuff has jus waned so much it is almost hovering around the NIL mark today. Am jus not able to fathom any reason for it.. probably my new found love and saviour of life in Mgmt has driven me so much towards it.. i jus dont hav time to think of learning abt tech or is it jus plain laziness and the work nature that has jus made me get redundant as i was never b4 in the last 6 yrs.. well hope all ends well at the MBA.. i jus am breathing and living every minute on it these days.. well then wat else.. think i will wrap up..
Sunday without a bike.. aws thinking wat am gona do.. bcoz that means no trip to office to catch up with the net or some work... well then got a call from bike service saying it is ready.. immdly i zoomed to pick it up.. well after abt 15 months the twisted handle bar was correctly almost well (as of today!!) and the ride was very comfortable.. well wat thn.. can turn off home.. with landmark looming in front of me at The Forum.I jus cant resist the temptation of a visit to landmark on weekends... a nice cool place to hangout (if i cd use tht....!!!) well spent a good cool 3 hrs there.. n found some really good books on Corporate Finance.. and on Derivatives.. well had a time convincing myself against buying bcoz i jus wont hav time to read it.. and also my task at hand the CAT and GMAT is a big enuf challenge in itself.. Well but i jus cant walk out empty handled.. So picked up Power Failure - The Story of Enron, The Goal and Economist's Introduction to Financial Markets... and made a rather sad glance at the other books i had wanted.. especiallly the Tom Peter Series.. Well then on the way home picked up tickets for the 3 day weekend to home.. Had quite long chats with NIS over the weekend.. really really long ones.. esp the one on sunday nite.. but b4 oh my god krishna brought the Ab Tak Chappan CD.. I sat down to watch it second time (rather the first time completely!!!, bcoz the one of bus i felt i missed a lot of the movie for sleep...) all went well till we hit the last part of the second CD.. it was jus test of patience.. the CD was damaged so much for every scene the CD would go back by two frames.. it was a pain man esp with the climax.. watch the movie of abt 20-25 mins for abt 1 to 1 1/2 hrs.. hopin n praying for it to get over.. Alas It finished.. then NIS spoke out all that he was feeling after a very long time this way.. it was jus one way talk.. i jus let him talk wanted him to let out e.thing bcoz he doesnt do it too often.. well thn off to sleep to start yet another week..
Well bak from the weekend.. nothing much except some more lazing around, a visit to landmark and some bike service. Well saturday began with a few hrs in front of TV and then going off to give the bike for service.. well that was due for quite sometime... n then caught an auto home.. and picked up some puffs and a bar of (wat u call it!!!!) well that was my food for the day so far.. and then came bak home lied down bak in front of tv.. well man this tv is killing me.. broke the addiction and picked up All About Words by Rosenblum.. well that book is more of a novel and doesnt offer me the instant and easy access to learning words.. well tht is wat i wil hav to live with for a week till i go home n get the good old Normal Lewis Word Power.
