I kept seeing them walk down the corridor. 1.2.3 They carry themselves so well. Lovely . Maybe they were born this way? – But no one is made this way, then how? It’s the environment ?!  Can’t you see.  Just take a look buddy. Hmmmm..... How? I entered the cafe. I see them. And elegance re -defined? Hi, may I know yr name please? And am looking at the elegant frame. Oh I wish someday, just some day I can carry myself this way... Hey you have a great smile? And I always wanted those dimples. In fact am gonna do some surgery to get them – exactly like yours... What!! Surely gone cuckoo this one Ummmm ok....I don’t see why you want them... ( Maybe the grass is always greener on the other side ) She finished yet another market visit that very morning. How, how, how does she get back to office looking like a million bucks?  – Its the attitude. You have it, you flaunt it. Here you are made that way.... Everyone here is beautiful ....

As a little girl I was given any doll, any dress. You name it; it was right before my eyes. As I grew up I experienced all the luxuries, you name it and it was there. As I matured I made sure that I continued with this luxurious stint, you name it, I had it. Enter..... Venue : L’Oreal Head Office, Mumbai Date : 9 th April 2014 I had attained an internship in my dream company . L’Oreal . Being an MBA student specialising in Sales and Marketing what more could one possibly ask for?   However as humans always tend to overanalyse, I too did the same. What if?? It all became clear in a flash, the minute I stepped into the head quarters. WOAH! I had yet again landed at a place I always aspired for. A place where I knew I would blend well. And hence I thank L’Oreal for choosing each and every intern and making sure that this experience will be enriching and valuable. A month has passed and still I haven’t gotten over how we all are given our freedom to th...

1.        Loss of weight due to high level of physical activity in order to check timetable. 2.        More communication between roommates due to absence of critical modes of communication. 3.        Official holiday for Class reps. 4.        Fainting of professors due to increase in concentration level of students by a large margin – a phenomenon not exercised in SCMHRD. 5.        Nervous breakdown due to ignorance of mess menu. 6.        ADHD ( Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ) as students feel they miss out on world breaking information such as who will hang out in juice bar, how come that girl hung out with the other girl who was the other guy’s friend who was the friend of the aunt of some other girl. 7.        Hallucinating watsapp...

The little boy fell down; he stood up and ran in the other direction. WHAAAAAAA! The people around complained Oh no hurt himself he shall again..... And what if he does?! Bystanders they shall remain. By this time you little boy, Yes you galloped away I remember a horse crossing hurdles Little one you did the right thing.... Because the gift – listening to optimal number of things.

“Things which matter most should never be at the mercy of things which matter the least – Johann Wolfganag von Geothe How many times do you think about what your priorities are when you wake up in the morning? In fact,never. Even if we do think about our activities that will be taking place during the course of the day, we seldom prioritise them. Going to class without having breakfast since you woke up late, waking up late since you were smart enough to trust your waking skills,sleeping in class since you are tired , tired cause the poor tummy has been deprived of food. The cycle goes on and on thereby churning your day into an unproductive one. Good Lord! Why do we always complicate things? When I talk about priorities I don’t mean salary, job, food clothing shelter and the like. Here I am trying to emphasise on the little things we give unnecessary importance in the name of attention, peer pressure and of course to prove the unique ability to “fit in”. P...

The prof wants something innovative for  weekly presentations during HCM class. Little did we know we had just two hours for the next class . So voila I wrote a poem on training and development in less than 15 mins. Happy with the feedback and glad that sir asked for the poem to carry along J   Training , Burning & Learning   I ventured out of my nest one day Pressure comes to an end they say   Engineering , Bcom, Bsc and the like Out of college, a job and a hike   Then I landed up in Infosys.

When wars had raged and reached the peak, To set a panic striken lot Who never once took a pause to see The better -their heart or their thoughts?   You both stood there as one heart beating , You knew there was hope somewhere The instinct comes to those who believe In the power that can’t be felt anywhere.   Thirty one years of trust and faith Since that very day you both tied the knot Lord Krishna as a witness would appear In person to watch this lovely couple sprout   Daddy, Mummy you both have stood the test of time And arrived to talk of today I wish you grow old over hundred years together And that will surely happen I pray!   Congratulations Mr and Mrs K.S. Nair. On this auspicious day I bow down to the two of you. Thirty one years of love, trust, hope and faith. You have surpassed and accomplished tons together. God is indeed great!
