The mosaic of my life!

Ask a GRE enthusiast to take 1260 on the exam without taking it, and I'm sure he would grab the opportunity with both hands. But, preparing for the exam for almost 2 months and ending up in your higher 12 hundreds is certainly disappointing. But rather than looking at the glass as half empty, I see it as half full. I still have something to cheer upon and go strongly about preparing my documents. I have built upon a strong academic profile and have the conviction to follow my goals and a moderate score cannot stymie my yearning to admit into a top school. My volition for obtaining quality education gives me the motivation to pave a path for myself that could have only been dreamt of a decade back. A good research experience during my professional stay at Infosys would prove an icing on the cake. Only a good application can now cement my place in a reputed University for a CS course. Not being a defeatist and wearing the attitude to not hang up my boots till the last modicum of su...

preserving. ___________________________________________________________ History has been unkind to Canute. The 10th century king of England was so tired of his fawning courtiers that he took them to the shore and commanded the waves to roll back. It was to be a demonstration of the limitation of his powers. But Canute in popular perception is the man who tried to turn the tide and failed. Today, India's finance minister P. Chidambaram and Y.V. Reddy, the governor of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), India's central bank, face Canute's predicament. In the public mind, they seem to be trying to reverse an inexorable inflow of dollars and its consequence -- an appreciating currency. Once traded at 47 or 48, the rupee now hovers at 40 to the dollar. Observers call it the fastest appreciation of the Indian currency in three decades. Is the rising rupee good or bad for India? What impact will it have on the global competitiveness of Indian firms? Should the RBI or the Finance mini...

The formation of the Indian Cricket League has been setup on the footmarks of successful private football clubs and county cricket clubs in England. The prospects of the game withing a cricket-crazy country seems inspiring to the eye. But the eventual success of the club would depend on the quality of players contracted and willing to be a part of the novel idea. Moreover, BCCI the hitherto undisputed board that manages Cricket in India was responsible for managing and funding the game. The revenue of the board surpasses any other playing nation in the world. And therefore, the insecurity amongst the members loosing a major chunk of their revenues to the ICL have adopted a caveat to players endorsing ICL that limits them to be unprobable for national or infact state tournaments throughout their lifetime. A profound threat to cricketing heroes and superstars who have become rolemodels and icons for the younger generation. Moreover, the ICL is definitely not the destination for such icon...

Everytime I sit down to write something that could be beneficial for the readers, I eventually end up to some confusing diary notes that boggle me down when I peruse through them sometime later. So I have do have some pity for the readers who fortunately or unfortunately, willingly or unwillingly, by virtue or inadvertently found a link to my page and had to bear the stick. Hitherto I was bludgened to write about social, philosophical and psycological issues which are no longer gonna be a part of my curriculum. And moreover I take a solemn pledge to ignite the mide of the readers who this time around have fortunately turned to the blog, even if I have to copy content from other successful bloggers and post it to the Kid's space [:-)]! Quite recently I saw a book on the stands - "Blog Wild". Quite interestingly it caught my attention and I sat down to read the contents. And appalling to my consternation, the guy has synthesized facts and tries to inform readers about what...

Fettered by the chains of circumstances, I had to wear a facade of ignorance and malinger my chores at work. After having been met my destiny the road ahead is visible and the clouds of darkness shroud until now seem to have disappeared. Life looks so rosy and open to a million opportunities and possibilities. I feel unleashed by the tyranny of superiors and have the courage to carve out a way for myself. Things might seem vague at this moment but once I am certain to have grabbed my targets that still lie distant, the hidden mysteries would certainly be revealed. Amen!
