enjoying myself

mein wapis aa gaya !!!!

I am back...back after a long break, it has been almost 8 months since i posted on this blog. This lack of activity from my side has been mainly due to my unhindered laziness ( induced by the 2nd year of IIMA). Its a bit humorous, that when I was in the first year out here, when free time was available only on a premium, i used to find time to post at least thrice a month. but in my second year, when i had ample time to waste, i rarely visited this blog.

Last 6-8 months have been like a roller coster journey. I developed a number of new interests, the primary being travelling. The new year began with a bike trip to Diu( around 450 kms one way from Ahmedabad). This was my first long distance bike trip which was made pleasant by a slight cold weather, wide & clean highways, & the company of an amazing set of friends. We spent the new year eve out der lazying around. Diu is one of the places which has got a gud set of beaches which are still untarnished by a human actions. The downside being tht we did not notice any gal in the skimpy clothes as u generally expect on a beach despite buying a couple of binoculars fr the same purpose :-).



The visit to Diu was followed by a number of smaller trips around Ahmedabad. Then the dorm guys planned a trip to North-East after the final term exams.This was the best trip of my life. This visit was so gud tht describing it in the same post wud do a lot of injustice to it. So i wud describe it in detail in one of my later posts.

Then i moved on to mumbai to work fr SEBI. Immediately i noticed tht i started to get a number of phone calls from the people with whom i lost touch a long time ago. Probably bcoz, if u r working fr SEBI, people expect u to know which way the markets r goin to move. n then people treat u as a key to the goldmine. n i certainly luv all the newly found interest of these people in me. We indians tend to have a mentality tht stock markets r the shortest way of making quick bucks & its really difficult to make people understand tht stock markets r like a two-edged sword... if u r not goin to tread carefully, u can certainly lose a lot of money quickly. paisa aata bhi jaldi hai...n jaata bhi jaldi hai

Then i went to Goa fr another se of vacation. The excuse given to the parents was the engagement of one of my dorm mates. Its really nice to hv such frnds who can provide u with excuses to go to all kind of exotic places. We did enjoy the beaches with all the 'stuff' which we missed in Diu & also indulged in a number of water sports. I went for parasailing which was a very enjoyable experience & certainly less frightening after i did para-gliding last year at Manali.

I hope to be regular now on this space of mine. I missed most of my blog friends during the same period. In fact some of u wrote to me egging me to continue writing. Thanks fr those mails guys... Tell me whts goin on in ur life these days... n i hope to shed my laziness, at least on this front.
