In Mexico City right now..
Havent had the time to see much of it..Saw the Polanco area last night and had dinner at Maria Bonita. EXCELLENT mexican food...just amazing.. its in Camino Real and you should visit this restaurant..
The view from this office is awesome..you can see a large chunk of the city and the mountains in the distance.
The city looked like a mix of Delhi and Bombay...cant exactly describe it..it is supposedly crime ridden..especially for the tourists..so we are stuck with the company cab..not that I am complaining..
Anyways...leaving for Ft. Lauderdale tomorrow..

"How accidental our existence is and how influenced by circumstances" - Louis Kahn
Just saw "My Architect: A Son's Journey" . What a beautiful piece on the man who designed the campus of IIM Ahmedabad, the Parliament of Bangladesh and the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California...Yet died penniless and heavily in debt in a bathroom in Penn Station, New York..His body lay in the morgue unclaimed for 3 days..

I just got back from a Qawwali performance by Mehr Ali and Sher Ali.
Amazing...
The entire Rollins chapel was filled with the trance inducing claps and sounds of this famous duo from Pakistan. Beautiful music..
They ended with the famous "Damadam Mast Kalandar"
The Tuck ASW starts tomorrow. Should be a fun weekend. Lots of parties and events. I will be participating in a few events myself.

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..

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..
