Back in action …

Finally, I managed to re-install Windows Vista on my PC, albeit with a full ‘nuking’ of my hard drive. It’s funny. Computers are supposed to make life easy, and yet they sometimes themselves are too fucked up. It was raining in the morning, and it was all so beautiful, but now, within 15 minutes, the sun is out in full force. Want to go uphill to Kasauli and relax at Shikha Didi’s cottage. That place is actually a little haven which is best suited for moments of relaxation. Listening to songs by Coldplay.

They released their new album, Viva La Vida. Have downloaded 2 songs from their album, and both are awesome. The guy, Chris Martin, their lead singer, has an awesome voice. And his wife, the talented and beautiful Gwyneth Paltrow, is a lucky woman. It’s like having Madonna as your wife :) Then there’s this band, NickelBack.

Their lead singer, Chad Kroeger, has great vocals as well. A true rock star’s vocals. This song by them, Rockstar, is totally kickass. I couldn’t believe I didn’t have it on my hard drive. Just downloaded it, and got all grungy :)

Next week’s going to be very eventful. Karan’s coming back, Kanav’s coming back, Kabir’s coming back – The three Ks. Ritish and all would be coming back as well. Then the week after that or something, I go to Delhi, and FINALLY get my new phone. Meenu’s leaving for the US on 11th, so that means approx. 2 1/2 months alone at home with Mom and Dad. I need to make the most of this time though, cause when she comes back, the BIG sis is going to accompany her back, and well life’s going to get tougher. Jiju is not coming sadly, that’s a let down. I am pretty sure that next year, before I go off to college or join work, I am going to visit them in the USA. I definitely deserve to go abroad, what with all the excitement I have always had to go to the USA and the UK. Now that Kanav and Karan are going to be in London and maybe Gupta would be studying there as well. I am guessing it’s going to be a lot of fun. My preferences keep changing everyday about what college I want to go to. Now the list reads

1) Tanaka Business School, Imperial College, London
2) Cornell University
3) Other colleges abroad (max. 3 more)
4) IIM, Calcutta
5) JBIMS, Mumbai
6) Any other IIM
7) XLRI, Jamshedpur
8) FMS, New Delhi
9) IIFT, New Delhi

That’s pretty much it. I don’t think if I get into another college, I would want to study then. I would rather join Grail and get a good amount of work ex and then straight off head to an MBA college abroad itself, or even, if I dare say, ISB.

Will write more later.
