hmm I think of myself as paradoxical : A non vegetarian who doesnt like to kill or hurt other living things, A ceaseless romantic who sometimes thinks that relationships are just not worth gettin into since someone eventually gets hurt, A dreamer who ends up being more realistic, A pessimist who hides his optimism in pessimism & finally just another normal human being.

2nd year in MBA

my god ever since school started ... my life has been going on a fast lane...

Financially i am tightly strapped.. so I am doing as much part time work as possible to continue to have some fun atleast while in school.

Couple of things happened that proved to be unnecessary expenses :

My good old Dell Inspiron died ..so I had to buy a new laptop. I chose Lenovo's IdeaPad for $615 ...and THENNNN when I received the new laptop ..guess what it was dead on arrival i.e. the laptop wouldnt even power up so I had to return it and wait for 3 more days to get the current laptop.

Meanwhile the gods up there weren't satisfied: My car was towed away while I was at my friends place for dinner.. I came out and my car was gone.. at first i thought it was stolen but then we called up the towing firm and they said they had it. I had to shell out $175 for getting my car back :(

& then 2 days later I also got a parking ticket for $20. (which seems small compared to the previous 2..but hey I am a student and 20 bucks matters)

The last straw was me getting a flat tire 2 days ago... that cost me $45 to change the tire and I still dont know how much i have to pay to get the flat tire fixed.

Someone is testing me..but I think I am handling it well thanks to friends.... in fact i was lucky that I was at my friends place and not in some highway when I noticed the flat tire.

Anywayz 2nd year classes are at full swing and we are supposed to focus on our job search as well. I am also having a great time with someone at school which helps me to get through these days much more happily..

and thats all folks... c ya next time.

busy busy busy ;)...

P.S. anyone with excess dollars... please do lend me some ..since the conversion rate for the dollar has jumped to 46 :( .. my indian loan is kinda not so useful right now....
