Economics of Friendship

2.5 months...That's all it takes.. 2.5 months for me to actually understand how friendship works in AIM... At least for me...
Well this is no bitter post criticizing my friends or anything but the way things have been going for the past few weeks in particular, it seems that people make up their mindset very easily and quickly here.Well that explains how from being a good company I have been relegated to no company for no fault of my own.

The worst of it isn't that but the fact that none of them have the bloody guts to come and confront me with the real issue.

Well I have this simple philosophy in life that don't ever run behind anything.Everything in this world has a reason and I guess in the end it all works out to be all good.

The mantra now is to stay clear of all the negative energy and concentrate on all the good things happening in my life.

It really doesn't matter what people around me do.

I guess as we get older it becomes that much more difficult to make friends for that simple reason: - friendship...There has to be an ulterior motive for every association we build.

Well I am just glad that this term is coming to an end in a weeks time and hopefully I'll be back with my friends and family in Mumbai away from the lugubriousness of AIM...

I guess its time to invest in new things, new people and to newer beginnings...

Walk in the rain!!!

Since the past 2 days I was having this insatiable urge of going for a jog in the rain. Today finally I was able to exercise my wish.

After the OM lecture got concluded at 11 a.m in the morning, I had a quick breakfast and then hit the road in my jogging track to enjoy the mid day heavy rain which was so similar to the one encountered back home in Mumbai.

The jog cum walk was a blissful experience with music in tow.I have no idea where I went I just followed the my mind and just started running where ever the road lead me.

This used to be my favorite past time back home. However due to the lack of physical activity as a part of my curriculum in AIM, I have been feeling a bit low for the past few days. There is nothing interesting to do here at the institute and to roam around the city I need company which is difficult because people have their own priorities plus there are the cases to be done too...

However back to jogging.I saw so many streets and their names but now when I try to recollect I can't even remember one...:)
But yeah it was fun finally venturing out near the institute and seeing first hand what all is there around AIM.

So now I know that I have a flower shop around the corner, a coffee shop which is open till late night, a pub which gives 3 beer for 100 pesos till 12 in the night and there is a pawn shop just behind the park where we plan frees-bee in the evenings.

All in all a perfect way to spend a lazy rainy day.Now I need to get ready for my HBO lecture which is scheduled in the next 35 mins. A hot shower ought to be great...
