FULLY FALTOO | An all expenses-paid holiday!

An all expenses-paid holiday!

chotacyrus | 8 June 2005, 1:59pm

Hello people..here I am,posting after a long time,for I almost forgot I had a blog of my own.Out of the five people who visit my blog regularly,two have taken leave from their respective offices(so no access to free internet for them) and two have taken leave of their senses(they say they find no sense in my blog now).Thank God for the other fellow who reminded me of my blog yesterday.It`s been quite some time since I have started blogging and its been a wonderful experience so far.When I started this blog,all I wanted to post was fiction(remember Potlibaba ?).Never did I realise that this blog would soon get inextricably interwoven with the incidents happening in my life.Also,the more I blog,the more I realise that blogging isn�t just about writing.Its definetely much more than that.I,incidentally,started my pursuit of MBA and blogging at about the same time-this January.I have since then been listening to a lot abt the qualities a manager needs to possess:talent,good communication skills,ability to market well,ability to network well and I think a good blogger needs all of these as well.No wonder,most of the good bloggers I know are either b-schoolers or are trying into a b-school.Here,when I say 'good' blogs,I am referring to more comments and more clicks.I am in no way referring to the quality of posts.I think,of all the qualities that I have mentioned,the ability to network well is the most important one if one is looking forward to more clicks or more comments on his blog.With say,something like 30-40 links of fellow bloggers,one can be assured of comments even if he posts something like"It was a wonderful day today..I had 2 idlis for breakfast".The comments would be something like "Wow man!Wow!u had idlis for breakfast?How I used to binge on them when I was there down south".Even something like "Of late,it has been so cold here..All I want to do is just fuck and have a cup of coffee" would recieve a comment like "Nice post man..keep blogging".Well,I am not against people who want to f*** and have a cup of coffee(in any chronological order i.e) nor am I against those who appreciate fellow-bloggers.It's just that some good blogs that I have visited have not recieved enough appreciation 'cos most of them don't have enough links to the right-side of their post.

I wanted to post this last week,but couldn't do so because I had been to Chennai..on an all-expenses paid holiday!!Well,I was actually accompanying my friend for his Visa.People whom I have accompanied to the US Consulate or to b-schools have never returned disappointed:DI have become a lucky-mascot of sorts and I only hope I get to go on more all-expenses paid holidays!Chennai with all its heat and humidity wouldn't actually be my choice from now,but then,watching my friend's gleaming face after coming out of the VISA office is worth braving all the heat and humidity!The scenes outside the US Consulate are to be seen to be believed..such outbursts of joy,esp from those who have been rejected a lot of times earlier.A friend of mine,I heard got his Visa the last week and believe me,it was the fifth time he was there for that.Some perseverance this!However,the best example of perseverance would be my friend Mr.Arun Deshpande.He really is the epitome of perseverance..but perseverance coupled with an evil mind bodes evil for the world and it's sad he has become a criminal,a killer..and a serial killer at that!The way he goes about murdering those innocent things needs to be seen to be believed.Arun,pls stop killing all the poor mosquitos that dare to visit your colony and hover over your head.Trust me,to somebody who standing at a distance from you,it would appear to be a halo over your head.

My next post will be all about my friend who will be passing out of the Indian Military Academy as a Lieutenant next week.I think the guy needs a complete post dedicated to him for all the hardships he had to face to become a commissioned officer of the Indian Army at 21!

have fun!

Only 5 times? I know this guy who tried for a visa 13 times and succeeded the last time. He's such a desperate joker.
