I watched the movie DOR today...for the first time...it was aired on Sahara ONE, so ..was lucky enough to be there as if on cue....it's a wonderful movie...I have no other words...This work from Kukunoor is so much more mature and useful in value terms...Rockford was fantasy that all teenagers would like to live in ...Iqbal...again a fantasy that inspires...and DOR...that inspires hope...it is obvious that the word fantasy does not seem very congruent to Kukunoor's movies...but just imagine...Fantasy is the word the we all actually live in...Our Gods, our future...our-Selves...its all fantasy...we have personal worlds which i call individual fantasies....but not fallacies...I am in love with miracles...but seen them happen only when it is 100% Faith...that's the prerequisite!!!
again...stated reading "tuesday's with Morrie", seems to be a wonderful one too!
Now getting back to work...

11-May-09

Hi there,
Its several days that i have written...but to tell you the truth...i am pretty lazy. ;)
10th May was mamma daddy's wedding anni...the 30th one...yes the gift should be a pearl but for the dearth of resources couldn't spare any.... Today i heard MLTR and Boyzone after a long time...while making some profit and loss decisions for several fake firms(read- solving profit and loss problems), there is a certain melody in them...some silky melody...this misses in backstreet boys...they are almost out of business now...jst visited their official blog http://blog.backstreetboys.com/2009/03/02/bsb-blog/ , and the most unbearable is the IPL, not that any of my people are really IN to it...but i hate the way it has adulterated the fun in the game...making it a "mere" business, a game between two countries when watched on TV used to be a good platform to showcase products...the same way as showrooms at Airports...(the Shamshabad, Hyderabad one is the most amazing in India)...but now the scene is they brought the bandwagon home,...now the scenario is like ...i do not have words ...probably due to dearth of a good vocabulary...but its is disgraceful if not outright ignominous.
And i pretty much hope that the entire thing becomes nothing more than a farce...not that is is not one now but i hope people realize it!!! too bitter...noe ...simply expressive...we are copying Man U and RM...that //is that all we are capable of doing...But for the diehard fans of the game..i do not know their view ...would love to know...do drop some acrimonious posts if i have hurt you...i simply feel the Nation vs Nation is a nobler deal...thats it!!
I have realized in a pleasant manner that for CAT ...nothing but Practice will suffice...genius...not enough...not that i am one...
All the sections when done in a day willl boost your confidence...lets talk bout me...i am planning to do that.
I also find the CBSE rd sharma a good practice book..as you get the concept nitty gritties right...
also for geometry...nothing beats CBSE!
So i ll keep posting!!
BBye!! Now some exercise!

When was it

Hi,

So am back after a hiatus…not exactly that but then how will I show it to you that I do stand a chance in CAT 2009. Well, I do not remember when exactly did I start my CAT preparation…the consciousness dawned upon me Circa 2004, actually mid 2004, I was in my 5th semester, I just happened to see this photograph in the TOI wherein the IIM-A students had some fest and they were interacting with some international students, and this seed of inspiration and ambition was sown then!!:), since then I think that in every little transaction of my daily life has been in some or the other way affected by this little seed ...now cut to 2005...I appeared for this exam...I should like to tell you in no uncertain terms that since i had joined the coaching till the exam day, it had been some kind of a roller coaster for me...any competition for limited resources is bound to be so!!!

Also I realize now that anger not only spoils your mood but also affects your brain negatively!!

One Fine Day...

Have a look at this one -

Alice: And how many hours a day did you do lessons?
The Mock Turtle:
Ten hours the first day, nine the next, and so on.
Alice:
What a curious plan!
The Gryphon:
That's the reason they're called lessons, because they lessen from day to day.

Its a nice summer afternoon, and my family is with me, Daddy is also home as it is a sunday...just had Dabeli...This is a gujju junk as competent as a burger in the zero nutrition race...but anks makes it so tasty that...Ohh! Anks my sister! She's here for the time being...getting back to business after this week ends! In Gujarat the mercury is rising...yesterday we had 43 degree in Ahmedabad...but summer's good, it reminds me of that childhood , the memory of which is more pleasant than the grizzled worthy itself!...presently our parents...i mean Anks and mine are having a nice nap...so we'll treat ourselves with our favorite gujju beverage "Aadi waadi Chaa"- Ginger Flavored Tea, you get this flavor tea bags in Tetley for sure...alos Twinings has several english flavors like Bergemot, and Earl Grey (not a flavor but a gimmick- CERTAINLY;)..But try twinings Lemon Flavored Tea...that one is sure good...the only problem you can't have it with milk...so is for bergemot..., The Green Tea from Tetley...I do not find it appealing enough...well ...It used to be all well after a long day in Faridabad...along with momo's when one used to reach Delhi South Ex...after a day long drivel! But ...seriously folks...nobody ...I mean it...nobody makes tea as well as Gujju's...They are experts...Alos try "Kahwa", you get this in Kashmir...This is not exactly tea...but when the shopkeeper of that quaint old shop treated us with this rejuvenating kashmiri beverage...it was like all that energy i had spent in clambering up the "Sonmarg" Valley....disappeared...Why can't we have a "Kahwa" flavored tea!!! Food for thought...now i need to make some for anks...she needs it...tomorrow she has her last exam....and god has given her a good amount of "Somnia"...I know that is not correct english...but you understand!!!

:)...Today's agenda is
  1. I AM OK, YOU ARE OKAY
  2. 3 RC test- I'll post the results as well.
  3. 10 LR
  4. 10 CR
  5. 3 DI sets
  6. Mathematics- Mom's worried this one- so we'll do that too- Progressions and equations and some juggling with useless ratios!
