Ah.  I was pretty busy in the last few days, so that's why things were somewhat silent.

There are just 20 more days to go before BrandScan 2004 happens.  Of course, the work behind this started months ago, and the Projects committee has done a fantastic job of getting 15 projects at this stage itself!  They announced the Project Leaders, their teams and the projects assigned to them on 29th itself.  I am in Team Coats India, the Project Leader being Jayesh Dave.  I am in his LSG (Leader Support Group) along with Amit Jain, Narasimha Raju and Santosh Raghavan.

On that very day, myself and others from TAPMI went to see a play called "The Good Doctor" (by Neil Simon), performed by Dramanon (Dramatists Anonymous) which is a group of students in Manipal interested in this sort of thing.  One of the first year students, Saurav Palit was also in this play.  Well, it was my first time attending a "proper" play — and I must say it was a good experience!  The show was very well acted and staged, and you could tell everyone involved had put in a lot of work into it.  Unfortunately, in order to attend that BrandScan meeting, many of us had to leave before the play was over.  I watched upto Palit's segment, and then left.

Yesterday morning, between 3 - 5 AM, I watched The Recruit on CD.  I enjoyed the movie and I thought it was a very well acted, fast paced, spy thriller.

In this term, I have quite a number of classes on weekends, and this time also there were a couple of classes today and yesterday.  Now normally, it would be something to grumble about, having classes on Saturdays and Sundays, but these classes (Performance Management and Recruitment & Selection), I really enjoyed!  Prof. Y. K. Shriram takes both these courses.

One more bit of news: I will soon be going to Bangalore for a few days, along with about six or seven others, to take part in one of their events (Vista).  This should be cool, though the catch is that I will return to Manipal on 8th morning, and on 8th the Mid Term exams are starting.  Well, let's see how things turn out.

I am right now hard at work on a computer game that will eventually be used for Atharva.  I am working on this with Arun Panicker and Visual Basic is being used to make the game.
