Aila!

Well,

I should've updated it earlier, but my quintessential lethargy, you know...

Life's O.K. . Joined Godrej Industries Ltd. at Mumbai. Its a 109 year 'young' company (ya ya that's company tempo crap). Pretty nice place. But I can't compare it with any other company as I don't have any experiences to benchmark it against. The area is pretty good... VERY green... which is again very unlike rest of Bombay.

Went to Ahmedabad for a weekend and caught up with dear old buddies. And almost did a few wild things! :D... But its difficult to go wild in ahmedabad.

Have had many amazing experiences which I have wanted to share here, but this crampy cyber cafe near the accomodation they have provided (which is very decent) isn't the place for long bouts of blogging. Wanted to write about Mumbai (obv!), the trains here, the party we had on the first day (I dined with Adi Godrej!! :D), IIT Vs IIT, and other crap that I normally spew out here...

The best part is the amazing set of people who have joined with me (that includes me too!). In a short span of 15 odd days we have gelled as if we've known each other for a few years or something! I guess all college hostel lives are the same... else by picking exactly like-minded people, Godrej's HR has proved its brilliant. But I have sincere doubts about the latter!!

Please pray that I can get a nice comfy comp with net to rave and rant on this page and consequently dodge the brickbats.

Which actually gets me wondering... Have any of you seen brickbats? Wht the hell are they? I know Bricks and I know bats... but what is a brickbat??? Hmmm... dekhna padega...

Keep jiving!!! :D

"VERY green.." - did you use that in a figurative or a literal sense?

And what does "Fluctuat nec mergitur" mean? enlighten

The earliest sense of brickbat, first recorded in 1563, was "a piece of brick." Such pieces of brick have not infrequently been thrown at others in the hope of injuring them; hence, the figurative brickbats (first recorded in 1929) that critics hurl at performances they dislike. The appearance of bat as the second part of this compound is explained by the fact that the word bat, "war club, cudgel," developed in Middle English the sense "chunk, clod, wad," and in the 16th century came to be used specifically for a piece of brick that was unbroken on one end. .........blah blah blah.... http://www.thefreedictionary.com/brickbat couldn't find better etymology.....
