Another one passes...

The most important thing worthwhile mentioning is that another sem.,the 5th has passed. So, technically speaking more than half(5/8) of my engg. college life has passed ! Much like everything that I come across in life, these years were a breeze. Knowing so many different kinds of people, interacting with them, staying 24 x 7 with them, time seems just another dimension. All this confirms one fact, a person's take on life is clearly dependent on the different type of people he meets, knows and understands.






The picture in the blog is a tribute to the brilliant novel by Ayn Rand, which unsurprisingly remains one of the bestsellers even after 54 years of being published and will probably continue to remain so as the vivid descriptions of 'the ideal human' are intriguing and thought provoking. One begins to feel dual emotions of sympathy and pride for the protagonist who faces numerous hardships as he decides to live a life on his own terms, no matter what the outcome. His unperturbed attitude is something which might seem out-of-the-world, because it really is.. I mean one cannot help but wonder if a such a person does exist in reality. Can't wait to read ahead about how such a person values the emotion of love, is it just something that happens to him or does it bring some change in him? The pages of the classic which answer these questions are yet to read and grasped by me and just saying that I am eager would be an understatement.

Things of personal interest which need immediate attention is my growing mane (I'd like to call it that, though I know it doesn't even remotely qualify to be called one) which is not only uncomfortable but also gives me a 'weirdo' kind of a look which I'm not sure I can carry off properly. My cupboard beckons immediate re-arrangement, but as a matter of habit, being insolent towards it suits my personality, or rather comes to me naturally than heeding to its irrational demands. Conditioned myself for some grueling ppt.(pre-placement training) sessions and the standard mba prep. That's it folks, signing off for now.
