Reasons are as follows 1. I have been enjoying at home and bangalore for 13 days. 2. Being a part of Confluence 2008, the annual business meet at IIMA, i worked hard for four days. As a member of the media cell, just go through our press releases.All the events , talks and panel discussions were were thoroughly covered.
3. and I have started playing tennis, or at least i bought a racket, brand which of course Mr. Federer uses.. ya Wilson!! i play from 10 to almost 2 every night(atleast till date :)).
സതീശന് സായിപ്പ് നാട്ടില്‍ എത്തിയിട്ട് മാസം രണ്ടു കഴിഞ്ഞു. സ്ഥലവും ഹോട്ടലും ഒക്കെ എവിടെ എന്ന് ആരോടും ചോദ്തികാതെ തന്നെ പോവാനും പഠിച്ചു...
അങ്ങനെ കാര്യങ്ങള്‍ ഒക്കെ നന്നായി പോവുമ്പോള്‍ ആണ് ഒരു ദിവസം എന്തോ പറഞ്ഞപ്പോ ഞാന്‍ കഫെ അപ്പര്‍ ക്രുസ്ടിന്ടെ കാര്യം എടുത്തു ഇട്ടതു... സായിപ്പിന് ഒരു ഓര്‍മയും ഇല്ല ... ഇത് ഏതു ഹോട്ടല്‍ എന്ന ഡൌട്ട്!!!
നമ്മള്‍ അന്ന് പോയി സിസ്ലെര്‍ അടിച്ച സ്ഥലം എന്ന് പറഞ്ഞിട്ട് ഒന്നും മൂപ്പര്‍ക്ക് ഒരു ഐഡിയയും ഇല്ല.. മാസം ഒന്ന് ആയിട്ടില്ല അപ്പോഴേക്കും സായിപ്പ് എല്ലാം മറന്നു...
എങ്ങനെ സായിപ്പിനെ കാര്യം പറഞ്ഞു മനസിലാക്കും?? സതീശാ പര നാറി.. നിന്‍റെ ഫുഡ് ഞങ്ങളാണ് സ്പോണ്‍സര്‍ ചെയ്തത്.. ഇപ്പൊ ഓര്‍മ വന്നോ എന്ന് ചോദിച്ചാലോ എന്ന് വിചാരിച്ചു... മോശം അല്ലെ? നമ്മള്‍ ഇന്ത്യന്‍സ് തറ ആയി കൂടല്ലോ...
അപ്പോ ഒരു ഐഡിയ.. " ഡോണ്ട് യു റിമെംബര്‍, ത്രീ ഓഫ് അസ്‌, യു മി ആന്‍ഡ് ഷൌന്‍ വെന്റ്റ് ടുഗേതെര്‍ .." ഇപ്പോ ഓര്‍മവരും...
After the mid day nap, got up just to solve the trade-mogul puzzle ,else i would have slept for another hour. Puzzle for Day 5 is due in 5 minutes. To gain senses i need to wash my face at least. Two-three steps to the right of my room on the way to rest rooms i saw it,i couldn't believe my eyes. Am i still sleeping? Nopes.. It was true, there she lies upside down just to the left of rest room entrance door. It was today afternoon that we had fight for her, me and my neighbour David and to my frustration, he won and i had to wait for 133 minutes as signaled by her. And now.. I called out for help. . Guess David heard...
Two weeks back... Inmates of Dorm-5 saw her for the first time. We had only seen the old grandma in first floor till date as far as washing and all was concerned. Now here she is and to the envy of guys in the first floor she will be serving the second floor. The brand new IFB Senorita DX fully automatic washing machine. Well packed and quality tested. Not yet installed because of some water inlet issues.
Today morning again when i got up from sleep, and at the same place two technicians were installing the new machine and even before that David had a bucket full of his stinky clothes ready. Its so unfair to this awesome machine(it was looking amazing), putting these stuffs upfront. But the user manual had clearly mentioned about a test run to be performed before the first usage. One litre of water to be poured in chamber two then half a spoon of detergent and put the machine in 95degree cotton mode. Its for cleaning the machine after factory test run and so. I poured in water and the machine was started for the first time.It will take 133minutes.So i still stand a chance, or to be exact my clothes still stand a chance to get the first opportunity to be washed in the brand new one. All the shirts and shorts are fed up with the grand ma whirlpool i guess.
Then the off day just went by with assignments, chats and scraps..and sleeping.. And now i am here watching her off the ground. It was placed on the lifted floor part of keeping the washing machine itself. But i guess since the support was not good it lost its ground while spinning or was it a suicide kind of action, Guess those clothes of David made the warranty void!!! We slowly lifted it up. All the electrical connections and water inlet tube were broken. The same chamber in which i poured the first drop of water was twisted. The front door was unlock so David took his clothes out which were dried to perfection. It had done its first duty well, before the accident.
The concerned people will come and check it soon, sincerely hope nothing happened to it... Feeling a kind of pain, don't know why...
Anyways grandma whirlpool will wash my clothes today!!!
Indian cricket since 1989 is a name.. nothing more..Tendulkar. May be India had a won a world cup before his entry to the arena, and one of course with out him, the 20-20s which is not cricket. Its the 100% commercial and entertainment mode of the worlds best game.
I have vague memories of watching cricket matches before the 90s. But after that i started watching matches because of him. I am a part of a nation that fell in love with cricket because of him.
From the day i started watching sachin batting, for each ball he faces i am tensed. If something goes wrong, chances of victory goes down by a huge margin. Or is it because i am there just to watch him play!!!For all those who says Sachin never performs well in crucial matches or for those who says Sachin performs well only when others perform, i have a simple answer. When sachin is in good form, he makes the matches simple. We get a feeling we would have won the match so easily even if Sachin hadn't contributed. There would have been situations when things went wrong, sometimes we feel its lot in case of Sachin because it has been around 20 years. Even if he makes a mistake once in a while, this time period is so large a period for the stats to lie.
Few words for those who think its time for the new generation Giving all respect to team India captain Dhoni, his decision making abilities n for all those victories he dedicated to his 'young' team. Just count on the opportunities he had till now, talking as a winning captain/man of the match. Simple counting the man of matches Tendulkar would make Dhoni feel small and as a regular viewer i can guarantee i have heard sachin speaking only about how well he got support from others or how well the ball was coming to bat. Where as Mr.Captain always tell about his team selection and about the young battalion. All the veterans were once sachin's seniors, or played and retired while he was still playing for the nation. I bet he never spoke a word mentioning he was better than them. Instead others spoke for him. They admired the genius. And for those who doubted his abilities he always answered with his bat.
As an Indian cricket fan, i seriously wonder why the selectors are in a hurry to make Indian cricket charmless.
What can replace the master blaster??
The question is clearly phrased, its not "who", but a "what" that can replace Sachin. I guess BCCI is trying their best. They know there is no one who can replace sachin. Can some "IPL" replace the love we have for Sachin, simply because admiration and love can not be bought by money. I believe its his grace that still keeps Indian Fans with the team. A word of disappointment from this person can create chaos. He presence itself makes such a difference in our team. He eases out pressure from everyone else. While the lee's and murali's tries to pick him, its easy for others to play their normal game.
Adding a word on injustice shown to him.
Full support to Ganguly who mentioned sachin deserves the time to decide when to say adieu to the game. I wonder whether seriously he gets injured often or is he being dropped from the side? Someone like Sachin deserves a position in Indian team if he feels he can deliver it for India. For someone with the quality and caliber is age a deciding factor? Look at the aussies, Its when Mcgrath n Gilly felt its time. Pouring out the truth, I may not watch India playing without Sachin, which might happen in near future. Thousands like me might find happiness in watching EPL n F1 instead.
What would have been their fame, if he hadn't been there Though they scored in excess of ten thousands, they always received fame and appreciation less because of him. Ever wondered what more they would have become if he was not there? Or may be they became the Ganguly, Dravid, Laxman, Kumble n all because of him.. who knows
All i know is.. I love Indian Cricket because of him...
Its all about Sachin "Cricketers like Sachin come once in a lifetime and I am privileged he played in my time," said Pakistan legend Wasim Akram
Lara said: "For me, the best batsman in the world is Sachin Tendulkar. I admire Jacques Kallis' consistency and Ricky Ponting, with the purple patch he's going though. Everybody gets 15 minutes of fame. But if there's one person I've admired over a 15-year period, it's definitely Sachin."
If I've to bowl to Sachin, I'll bowl with my helmet on. He hits the ball so hard: Dennis Lillee
"When sachin goes out to bat, it beyond chaos... its a frantic appeal by a nation to one man"..Hayden on Sachin
"He is 99.5 per cent perfect. I'd pay to see him:" Viv Richards.
India's fortune will depend on how many runs the little champion scores. There is no doubt Tendulkar is the real thing: Sunil Gavaskar
I saw him playing on television and was struck by his technique, so I asked my wife to come look at him. Now I never saw myself play, but I feel that this player is playing much the same as I used to play, and she looked at him on Television and said yes, there is a similarity between the two... his compactness, technique, stroke production... it all seemed to gel: Sir Donald Bradman.
When Slot three slaughter is just hours away, when the readings are not yet done. The days when a 300 second snooze in alarm is valued more than anything is so near, I remain like this still reluctant to agree the fact that i am back in Ahmedabad!!!
Time you spend with your loved ones, family...friends... It flies like anything. I feel like it was just few hours back that flied to bangalore and now here i am back sitting all alone again.
Its so easy a life with no mails, no calls, nothing to do. Enjoyed the movies i saw, including Mama mia. coz if i were here, i would have been worrying about the time i am wasting. The food i had was tastier coz i was not having just another lunch or dinner but i was having food ( though the stuffs like crab n seer fish taste amazing whenever u have it).
Being a son, being a brother, being a true friend... everything adds meaning to your life. I have heard my bro telling he spends at least an hour a week just to call up old acquaintances. I had never realized how happy people become when they realize you were there spending some time just to meet them. Its not always about what you are. But its always about what you were. Its your "were's" that make your "nows".
Being in harmony with nature, knowing what you need to do, doing what you like, taking a day off, simply those few things add a lot to your life. Driving through the Bangalore roads, still remembering all those shortcuts, bribing bangalore police , an icecream from corner house, a movie at the forum mall and above all moms-food!!
Oh, i how hard i miss everything..Waiting for the next vacation..Wondering how to start the readings for slot three.
When i know the time is ready to start all over again, i do adhere!!!
I don't wanna talk About the things we've gone through Though its hurting me Now its history Ive played all my cards And thats what you've done too Nothing more to say No more ace to play
The winner takes it all The loser standing small Beside the victory Thats her destiny
I was in your arms Thinking I belonged there I figured it made sense Building me a fence Building me a home Thinking Id be strong there But I was a fool Playing by the rules
The gods may throw a dice Their minds as cold as ice And someone way down here Loses someone dear The winner takes it all The loser has to fall Its simple and its plain Why should I complain.
But tell me does she kiss Like I used to kiss you? Does it feel the same When she calls your name? Somewhere deep inside You must know I miss you But what can I say Rules must be obeyed
The judges will decide The likes of me abide Spectators of the show Always staying low The game is on again A lover or a friend A big thing or a small The winner takes it all
I don't wanna talk If it makes you feel sad And I understand You've come to shake my hand I apologize If it makes you feel bad Seeing me so tense No self-confidence But you see The winner takes it all The winner takes it all......
One or two months back, when i saw the news Dr.Kalam is going to take a course at IIM-A, i wondered what it would be. When i heard its some GRIT course for second year students it was just another news about IIM-A.
I happened to attend a session on Entrepreneurial ship by Prof Anil Gupta, which made a huge impact on the way i used to think. Prof Gupta and Kalam are together taking the course GRIT(Global and Resurgent India through Innovative Transformation), for the first time this year and most probably will become a regular course next year onwards. So i have my chances of attending it next year.
All of a sudden, a twist in the tale, it was announced 20 first years would be allowed to attend the course(as a non-credit one). It doesn't matter whether it has credits or not. People are getting a chance to attend Dr.Kalam's class. Me too applied along with my profile and all. But telling the truth, i had very less expectation of getting through.
It was a week before the list of selected students was published, and i was so happy to see my name. I was selected for the fourth pillar-"A nation where education with value system is not denied to any meritorious candidates because of societal or economic discrimination." Classes starting September 13th. Since we had regular classes during the first years will be attending evening interactions with Dr.Kalam.
And today was the day. At 3:45, i met him for the first ever time in my life. The first thing he told was a story. Something that happened when he was 10 years old , it was related to importance of integrity. Words cant describe the feelings, i was in a state of excitement. Even ecstasy won't be an apt word to describe the feeling. I used to keep a quote with Prof.Kalam's (Till now he used be an Indian president, but now he is my professor :)) snap at my workstation.
"Dreams are not what you see while sleeping, but something that will never let you sleep..."
Now i am listening to him, sitting in his introductory class. He was also excited to teach us. For IIM-A he had emotional attachments too, Vikram Sarabhai founded IIM-A n the place where he excelled as a scientist, ISRO. Most of the session was filled with his real life experiences including that at Kerala assembly and Thumba. He was prepared well as all the prof's here. do Even i got chance to speak to him. An amazing reply to my query "Don't you think inclusive policy by the government in the higher education sector denies opportunity to the meritorious?", seriously made me feel reservations are not that bad as i think.
Another amazing qualities all leaders have, for someone's question, he didnt know something. Without hesitation he told that. Who all admits things like that? Only true leaders. Admiration is the only think you will have after that.
Just few months after joining here itself i feel i gained a lot from IIM-A. This is an awesome place to be in..
Waiting for Prof. Kalams next class...
PS:Forgot to mention, Dr.Kalam is a person with a great sense of humour.
Sorry beloved non-mallu readers!! This post is completely mallu. So kindly bare with me for this one :P, coz without malayalam this topic wont get that effect.. The so called "thara" effect!!!

Yet another weekend has arrived!! Time to utilize more of the only commodity which increases its marginal utility with each unit consumed(economics is taught well here:P, there exists something called law of diminishing marginal utility which basically tells if u use something more and more the pleasure derived from it keeps on decreasing).. SLEEP!!! I guess I am the only person who spares more than eight hours per day for this highly valued commodity!
After welcoming the weekend with a nice movie, "Rock-On", I am in good mood to write. Let me write about of those usual nights here at IIM-A in an unusual way. Two doctoral students(one of course me!!) who always shared d same dream, publish a book!! The movie also tells the story of similar people who deferred their dreams for their future! Or is it a future!!! Let me try to recollect chunks of our google chat yesterday (DC1: doctoral candidate 1, me and other guy DC2).. It went well some what like this
DC2: u know that life is going haywire when beyond the very
DC1: how come??
DC2: u know that life is going haywire --when ur dearest wish is that there be no quiz tomorrow
when ur vision of future ends with the very next day.when u feel guilty for sleeping 5 hrs a day
when life,death,friendship and family pales before a 5 percent weighted quiz
DC1: i can understandbut still i admit a good one :)
DC2: i am just practising on u. Intend to write a full blog on it
DC1: nice
DC2: pls spare me of ur indifferent comments
Questions about the insignificance of one's actions.
The unbearable lightness of being...OR IS IT REALLY SO LITE?? That would be one thing I can accept after a drunken stupor in the wee hours of morning ..something when I am wasted and not normal...anywayz not in my rite senses.. To ppl who say decisions don't find, I just ask --are they so light so as to belittle its significance in the longer run...IS ONCE REALLY NONCE?? Then the decision maker in question is just as insignificant and unworthy of existing as the decision itself...
DC1: i was planning to write about one of those days
DC2: me too was thinking about the book again
the one i intend to write
DC1: :)
But not now. Do financial markets!!
Survive, struggle for the life
wen u r sure u will survive, think about d future
till then the future is limited to our tomorrows!!
DC2: my future isn’t confined to the red bricked walls of this 'institution'
DC1: if a 5% quiz cost u one year in your life
It does matter
Didnt u wish for 5 years in your life to be within these walls?
Now when u r here.. u want to break the walls n reach out for the outer world
hah?
DC2: I had wished for a long time that I would be within these walls..
DC1: Surviving here means.. the world outside will be under ur feet
Hero.. wake up!!!
just few days of hard work.. thats all wats required for ur success
DC2: I was never a hero and might never be
DC1: everyone born,are born as heros!!
when u start thinking.. u lose way
but when u think, think the right way, u know u r!!
DC2: When u walk on the edge, the way down at times seems the better option :)
DC1: but there is always a way UP!!
the road less travelled... :)
chose it, n it will make all the difference in ur life
DC2: u can confirm and be on the rest or break free and still be the best..maybe in ur own eyes alone ..but that might be what counts ultimately
the way up is the oldest road known...
u can confirm and be like the rest
DC1: the path to go up, can be unknown
And being the common is not always wrong.
when u think, u r a hero... u r!!
atleast thats what i think, and the way i want to think
DC2: not me.. but that would be the path i would like to try out now
DC1: all the best wishes
DC2: i might want to do something less but that has to be my decision not someone else’s
Maybe after 5 years
DC1: hope we can be companions in the road ahead
DC2: sorry i am not gay...and i have already found my companion ;)
maybe u can try david
DC1: loser!!! u spoiled the whole mood
anyways its 1:38
let me sleep
DC2: 1:46, u got it wrong
DC1: but lots to read before i sleep
"Trustme"-Rajashree is yet to be finished
Dude u continue with ur corporate finance
DC2: finish and then gimme
Wake me up at 7 or the earliest u wake up
have to read Financial reporting
I am ordering two books online
hope it will reach here by the time our exams finish
DC1: Look guys who chose the road ahead are already done with readings n u!!
:)
Which all books?
DC2: the unbearable lightness of being ...milan kundera
you are here ...meenakshi reddy madhavan
DC1: i know atleast the authors’ name
:)
DC2: me too
have been wanting to read that book for long
published long back
DC1: time to say good bye for one more night at iima
DC2: sleepless at iima
DC1: good night amidst the portfolios betas n CAPMs...
DC2: lemme muse over my pitiful life for some more time and then get back to reality.
DC1: bye
DC2: never say bye.. atleast untill u die
DC2: wow i am in form today
DC1:I am also not bad!! But today is no more and will never again be a today! The tomorrows are waiting!!
Thus ended one more of our days at the best b-school in Asia-Pacific!!
