Crazy as ever!

Hey readers, how is it going on with you? I am super-busy here what with having to write an article for the ICFAI Charter magazine, composing questions for FRM 2008 and simultaneously working on 2 top-secret (not defense level) projects! Besides, having to constantly go up against my IT team and the HR guys here at office and I got my hands full! And oh, I forgot to add the bit about me missing out on my reading and the arrival of my cousins, along with their daughters, for the summer vacations! All in all, life sure is super crazy / busy / fun at the moment!

I hope to share with you more on my secret projects in the days to come – provided my efforts bear fruit! Else, it will all go down the toilet with not even a trace left for you to ponder over! Meanwhile, work at office is exciting – got 2 downgrade/upgrade calls right on the button! But heck, this isn’t the place to discuss my work, is it? Oh, and are any of you wondering why I haven’t published any photos from Canon S5 camera that I dedicated so much space to a month back?

Well, frankly, though I do have a lot of photos on the camera, the net connection at home has been nothing short of pathetic – I am using Reliance’s NetConnect and man, the speed is not only super slow, but it also takes an eternity to open a page! I am super tired and fed up of the slow connection – I’ll upload a bevy of photos once I get a new connection – probably sometime next month.

By the way, I have finished reading James Patterson’s Hide and Seek – I might be tempted to write a review of this book sometime during the weekend! ‘Til next time, take care and play safe!

Yes, I'm ALIVE!!

Hey guys, for those of you wondering that since when has this blog become a news highlight, lemme assure that it is certainly not so! The only reason for me posting Q3 results is that there are a lot of companies reporting results at the moment and wouldn't it be good if you could check all of them right here on this page? I don't have much to add to the earnings results as yet because I've not begun my financial modeling services for the Indian market, so my comments are likely to represent the market's views only!

Besides, the snapping of the internet cable sure has affected my Reliance NetConnect connection! It takes me more than 10 minutes to open my Gmail from, can you beat that?? I to doze off while waiting for the sites to open; anyways, I pray that the connection gets restored soon!!

Oh well, a cold wave alert has also been sounded in Calcutta for the next 48 hrs; gosh, Calcutta has never felt cooler in the 6-odd years I've been here!! N this certianly is the coolest February of the year!! The shopping season is on as well and its heartening to see almost every brand offering 50% (close to it anyways) off on their merchandise.. & still making a profit out of the sales. Just makes you wonder how much it really costs them to make these apparels and how high their margins must be! The cost of a brand sure couldn't have been higher!!

Well, I sure have been feeling real lazy for the last week or so! Just eating and trying to sleep for longer than 12 hrs everyday!! That's a bit of an exaggregation newazz.. I don't think I've logged in more than 8 hrs on any of these last few days but heck, that can't stop me from dreaming for a 12-hr sleeping marathon, can it??

Don't wonder any more guys, this blabber ends here!! I hope to return with a more meaningful post!!
