Got back from India yesterday..It was a great trip..lots of fun as expected. Went to Nagpur and Mumbai.
I also got my F1 visa stamped. The Consulate officer was a Dartmouth Alum too :)..so the interview was more of a general discussion about the college..

Saw Race in Mumbai..its a timepass movie..

I flew continental on their non-stop Mumbai-Newark flight..its good but a bit lengthy for my taste. I prefer the stop over as it gives me a chance to stretch my legs..

The Spring term starts today..This should be a quick term of only 2 months...Then onto the internship..

Just 1 week left for the Winter term to end. I will be heading to India for my spring break next week..Should be a lot of fun!

Saw Atonement last week. Beautiful movie.

My summer internship also got finalized. It's a very good offer and should be a lot of fun. Plus its in Florida J..So I cant complain..

Happy New Year everyone!!!

Got back early morning from a party at Nanking.

Saw Walk Hard : The Dewey Cox Story yesterday. Very Funny!
Have been hosting late night parties at my house for the last 2 days..So a bit tired..but we have the new years coming up tomorrow!!

I cant believe my winter vacation is already over..Will head back to Tuck on the 2nd.. and straight into the recruiting madness..

Saw 3 movies:
1. I am Legend - good movie
2. National Treasure - boring
3. Taare Zameen Par - Excellent movie!!!

Having fun in NY..Will be having lunch with some of my ex-bosses tomorrow in Manhattan..should be good..

Congrats and welcome to all the new admits to Tuck.

Saw el laberinto del fauno. Excellent spanish movie.

The finals for Fall B start this Saturday. I will then head out to NY on Tuesday for a 2 week break. Our section had their own T-shirts printed out, had a round of champagne and group photos as this was our last day as a section. We get assigned new sections in Winter.It was great fun.

Got back from Seattle this morning on a red-eye flight..It was an amazing trip to microsoft. Extremely hectic schedule, but I was surprised by the access to the top level executives during our stay there. We presented successfully and got beautiful trophies and certificates. Got to meet the CTO, Norm Judah and GMs from the service lines.

Now its back to the Tuck grind:) I have my finals in a week. Then a 2 week break for christmas, which will probably be entirely spent studying up on consulting cases..

Just got the great news that my team has won the Microsoft Case competition!! So we will fly out to Redmond next weekend to present to the Microsoft Services CTO..Should be great fun..

Am in NY right now. Drove from Hanover..It snowed a lot in Hanover today..but the drive was safe..

Thanksgiving holidays are around the corner...Will be flying out to Cleveland and then driving to Ann Arbor ..So will be a hectic week.
Have my mid-term exams next week.
Saw Om Shanti Om last week. Ok..nothing great..

We had the first hint at a dusting of snow last night. It is now rapidly turning cold here.
The official recruiting season is fast approaching. We will have the official interviews starting in around 2 months.

Looking forward to the Thanksgiving trip. Should be fun!

Finished a great Consulting Club trek. Saw 10 firms in 3 days. It was good to see the offices of all these great firms..
Fall B starts tomorrow. More quantitative. Capital Markets, Economics, Man. Comm. and Statistics. So will be very hectic as the preparation for the case interviews also begins this month.
Wathced quite a few movies over the weekend.

Finished with my Fall A term!!!! Just gave the last exam.
Unbelievable...
The 2nd years had organized a surprise champagne welcome for us all when we were dropping off our exams at the Stell Hall..
I'll be heading off today for the Consulting trek to Boston and NY. And then back for a brutal Fall B :)...Lots of work lined up for the coming weeks, along with a focus on getting my consulting preparation up to mark.

Just got back from the Dartmouth Homecoming Bonfire.

Trial post from the new Word 2007 blogger tool

Just purchased a few songs via the new Amazon mp3 site. 'Red Sky' by Thrice..

Saw Vinod Khosla in action today. He was over at Thayer to give a speech on renewable energy portfolios. Very interesting and as the man himself said, very opinionanted. Just the kind you want to hear. Surprisingly there were very few engineering students and a lot of us from Tuck showed up.
1 more week, and my 1st term at Tuck will be over!

Was shown clips of "Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman" in my Organizational Behaviour class today !!!
Never thought I would actually get to a see a hindi movie at Tuck :)

They showed the boardroom fight which Shahrukh khan has with Amrita Singh [updated after comments :)], as an example of going against "groupthink" in an organization and effecting change :))))

Tuck was rated No. 1 by Wall Street Journal. Read about it here .
So we've come on top 2 times this year now. Thats great to hear.

Got my Change of status to F-1 approved this week! So that piece is done too :) Officially a student.
Had a great Mexican party last night. Trying very hard to maintain as normal a life as possible. The work load is increasing exponentially, so it wil be a tough task...lets see how it goes..
