Over-indulgence !

Lately, I've been partying hard - which is not a good sign !

Over-indulgence - yeah...that's the word. I will account for it from latest backwards.

MISM party
On Friday night, our soc-coordinator invited MISM students for a party of MSIT, MISM and ISPM folks.
On the right is our soc-coordinator and MISM rep. She takes good care of the batch - given the fact that MISM is so demanding and she still manages time to coordinate these events.

Three cheers to having such a rep.



The event happened at Doc's Place. In the evening, it was pouring and was slightly cold. The place has two settings on the upper deck - indoors and outdoors.

While indoors had some music - outdoor was more fun since there was more space to move around. Outdoor was slightly chillier than inside and hence, either ppl stood near the heaters or wore sweatshirts (like I did!).

A social event like this is good to know your peers, faculty, et al in a different perspective. Andy (Ass. Dean) was telling us his stories as an MBA student of GSIA (CMU's bschool) and so was Sumitha (MISM Program director). Some of the fresh fall-06 batch students were also enjoying this event.

The turnout was not that great but I must admit that the even organizers did a good job at estimating the size of turnout!

Here's a snap of myself, Andy, and fall06 students.

Heinz party
Before this, there was an orientation party at the same place, about a week before. It was fun too. But it had wider spectrum of students since the Arts Mgmt and Public Policy Mgmt students were also part of the party then.

Not posting any pictures from that since I dont have any!


Mehrdad's graduation celebration at his place
Last night, I visited our Telecom Mgmt class's studygroup mate's place. With Telecom class, he finished his third graduation! He was BEng in Civil, then Masters in Civil, then Masters in CAD, then completed transition to IT with MSIT from CMU with Security track.

Mehrdad is Iranian and his wife is Chinese. The food was really good - Chinese and Iranian - a delight to my taste buds. Yummy !

Andy made some mango bars and I've brought quite a bit of them home so that I can relish them later.

One surprising discovery last night was knowing that lentils are not a good source of proteins. Therefore, I will have to switch to Tofu soon :-/

I know.... my travel log is yet to be completed !
I shall post it later on .

Meanwhile, I have to gear up for the companies which are going to visit the campus.
