Few things that came to mind, few thing that i have been doing in the last few days ….

– playing baddy is fun. i am playing it everyday for 20-40 mins. it is consuming the excess calories in my body.

– thinking about my dust bin, the scrap in it there for some 25 days. Hightime i cleaned my room.

– talking about dirt, i guess i am the front runner for winning the messy room award here. I still have last month news paper on my reading table.

– winter is here. 2 days back i went to city to have dinner along with 9 others. I pillion rode back to the campus at 11 on Shiv’s enfield. Man, its damn cold. Both of us are wearing jackets. despite that i felt like a corpse in martuary. well, i dont think i can survive this winter without a Rajai.

– talking about ‘Rajai’, someone in the dinner comented about having IIM Indore rajai’s. Funny!

– midterms are starting from day after tomorrow. administration here has perfected the art of academic torture. This term we had 5 midterms spread over a span of 12 days. one on 11th, one on 15th, one on 19th and 2 on 22nd. not to mention the classes in between.

– talking about academics, well, the less said the better. we have deadlines piled up for the next few days. This reminds me of a meeting i have at 7pm. I better prepare for it.

bye

  1. Ciao Hui,
    Collecting Excel tricks under the title “Notable Excel Websites (Non-MVP) Edition” is a brilliant idea…
    Thank you in the name of all The FrankensTeam.
    On our site there is a box with a picture and text highlighting:

    This is a no-MVP site
    we think ourselves “bad boys” a bit 🙂
    For those who would like to know why our site is a no-MVP site, enough to click on the link:

  2. I really enjoyed this (newsletter). I must admit that I rarely read an Excel newsletter (and I subscribe to quite a few) all the way though, but this grabbed my attention and before I realized it, I was engrossed in it. I must also admit that most of this I don’t understand, yet. But, it excites me when I do learn something new in Excel. I can’t wait to see how much of this I can implement into my (constantly-evolving) ‘House Budget’ & ‘Family Medical’ worksheets that I have developed over the past few years! I sure hope to see more of these type of newsletters in the future! Thanks!

  3. Hui, This post is Superb! More over I have always been a fan of Roberto’s work and have learnt a lot from him.

    Here are some of my recent contributions

  4. I like the Excel Ninja Menus.
    1. Select a cell or range then move till the 4-way cross appears. Right-Click and drag the selection to another place in the worksheet then, like a ninja, a menu full of skills and throwing stars pops up allowing me to do all kinds of awesomeness.
    2. When you click the fill box on a Date and right click and drag it down, a lot of amazing Date options pop up.
    I also brand my Excel to remind myself that I’m awesome. In my personal macro workbook I place the following code.
    Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    Application.Caption = “SuperKrishna’s Awesomeness”
    End Sub

  5. My favorite tip goes along with #17. If you try to copy subtotaled data (and in earlier Excel versions filtered data),when you paste it all the data displays instead of just the summarized data.
    To get around this, select your summarized data, click on Find and Select tab and then select Go to Special. Click Visible cells Only and click OK. Now paste and you will see that only the summarized data has been copied.
    You can also go CTRL+G and then click the Special icon at the bottom of the dialog box.
