I am malnutrionesque, bollywood_heroinesque thin in those days. I tried all types of gimmicks to gain some weight. alas, but there is no end to my wait. Then […]

I always thought that people would love to hide their identity when it comes to online forums/chat rooms/etc. Some mavericks always try to come up with crazy names too. Still some more people hide their identities even in blogs. When you are a regular user and mod at largest B school student online community in […]

I have purchased my domain name and some puny webspace yesterday night using the plastic. I started experimenting with moving the blog pages from Blog*spot to this place. Finally the move is complete and now all my future blogs will be available here [http://chandoo.org/blog] only. It is at this point i understood that i need […]

Today, i am here to prove that indeed they have a strong relationship among themselves. So much so that, the relationship is […]

well, that pretty much summerizes the scene of 2 mids i had today. first in the day i had finance mid. well, as somebody was saying after the exam ‘the prof had left only 4 ratios in the text book’. Anybody who knows the spelling of finance can guess that at the most rudimentary level, […]

Somedays, life seems highly miserable and hopeless. Well, not for cribbing but for the fun part of the life under thousand tonnes of pressure read on.
