it was all about colors!

as long as i can keep it going...i will....so the little time i could take out of my Account Planning workshop-packed day, I did and while i'm supposed to find mega inferential insights about how people view GEC's such as COLORS, and my group members gone for dinner, I am writing!

I had never thought, I'd have to do brand wheel and brand vision focus for colors. and not that it interests me a lot. I mean, obsessing with Colors was really not what I thought i was getting into when I chose the 5-credit (and that's big) course on AP. Anyhow, like everything else I will live with this too. I am not really the one who'd take steps when one should. I mean procrastination is like my second nature. For eg. I havn't returned Noam Chowmsky to the library and the date was the day before yesterday. But I also havnt read it. I have kept it for days and days, and occasionally use it to kill insects in my room and still havnt read it.
I dont read in the loo any more. That is because I like to think there. I like to think a lot and about a lot of different things. I used to talk on the phone also but these days i'm too much in a rush.

Anyhow, the little time that I got in the day, before I had a deliverable, I tried to find out, what are the cool, fun, pretty rural places in India. It also has to be convenient, close to Ahmedabad, reaching where is budget. I should also know the language of that place for the rural project in college. In essence, I am saying the place should be somewhere in Maharashtra, Rajasthan or MP (unless Gujarat is connected with any other state).

I am biased for Rajasthan. I feel there is so much to see there. Even though it's where both are my parents are from i know it very little. Though I do know, it's a riot of colours. And then there is this mellifluous, pretty refrain that lingers on in your head, some Marwari song. Then is a sea of vibrant pagris and the most beautiful ghaghras and backless cholis, and women cloyed with the most beautiful, chunky silver jewellery. It makes every woman beautiful and every pair of eyes longing. It has a folksy-brilliant-rustic charm about it. Anyhow, I think in essence Im only saying the place should be somewhere in Rajasthan :D
This is one of the loaded questions, where the person asking, answers his own questions without giving the interlocutor any chance.

Oh thereafter, I am also going for a trip to Maharashtra. No idea who all will accompany but someone certainly will. I'll go meandering up a hill on a powerful cycle, find a brilliant, virgin fort and chill there. I have tried to find about such places. There is one trek, quite unexplored on your way to Lonavala I think. There are also other forts I think in Pratapgarh, Daulatgarh or Amboli.
But if that doesn't happen, our very own Mahabaleshwar will be glad to receive me yet again, the third time. The first two times I went with my family, it was just BRILLIANT. You get the most amazing squashes and crushes of Mapro. You also get the most sanguine strawberries there. what people dont know much about is it's walnut-fudge and 'gulkand'. They are the daintiest goodies one can have.

Anyhow, before that I have a whole lot of classes that I have to survive. And a lot of classes that have to survive me. And also there are a whole lot of classes post that. Econometrics and all, so come back and tighten my belt.

Oh, what cannot be missed is that how much of Badminton I played today, after such a long time. I feel i was rusting, so decided to play despite the work. I play ok, but I do that badly! I mean, I don't exactly play badly, but I make people lose alll the time. I have even the best players lose. I think, I am the soft target. If I'm playing front left, they'll play front right. If I'm playing right back, they'll play front left. And Shatru says, I should not lock my feet. I paid heed to that, but I dont think I can do anything about my stupid feet.

And another thing that cannnot be missed is that I had a bath twice in 5 hours. It was because I sweat it out after baddy. Mummy will be proud because it's rare.

woohoo...second blog's done...if i do it for 21 days, ill have picked it up....
group's come back, and now ready for COLORS cheer-haran.
