we won....

life was awesome today...as always...

attended the classes...realized that R was a god in his past life...and when i say god i mean those individuals who know everything...so much...so so much...that ideally they should have graduated to the level of god in this life...! sadly..the motion didnt pass in the parliament..and here they are..as a human again. anyways..so back to him..that dude rocks. i mean...rocks real 'hard..'. he knows a lot for his age and size (and i mean the height here!)..! it so awesome to hear him speak about individuals whose parents would have taken 2 days to pronounce their names. we were discussing 'Thus Spake Zarathustra'...and Nietsche's philosphy...! and he brilliantly went through the ideas...!

at times i feel that even though i am never satisfied with myself...i never really work towards reaching that next level. i wish i could...and its disgusting that i dont...knowing very well what i have to do. i loved the discussion on emerson today. his idea of non-confmity set me thinking. if i were to categorize myself i would call myself a conformist. i havent done much in life against what society has laid down in front of me. ofcourse...except for the decision to not go for engineering and coming back to India while pursuing my PhD at MSU. however, i wont really pride upon these...! for me...non-formity should be largely emotive. if i feels that someone is not being nice to me...do i kill myself and still act nice to him/her...jst cause thats the 'right' thing to do..! the entire idea of emerson was to follow what you truly believe...even if it doesnt fall in place with societal norms...!

anyways...

so..after lunch...behavioral finance happened...sleep happened...and after an hour i realized that i rather sleep back home than in class and abuse the professor. so i left...for the first time at ISB...midway...during the class. felt weird....but no much as soon as i reached home. :)

read khuswant...and then slept for a good 2 hrs. went to the gym...took a shower...had dinner...and then went for a 20 question competition..teaming up with G and S. and...WE WON...G was great at the questions...S at answering them...and me at coming up with stupid comments all through...with least value add. i did do some fair bit of guessing...and so did G...such as this one time when we had fictional characters as the round. she asked me...is it a cat...i replied no...and she goes...garfield...?????

200 bucks each...sweet money for an hour of fun...!

i might go for a mass this friday...really looking forward to it..!

fun times...lifes good...!
