Insane days

The last few weeks have been insane. Waking up early, getting to school by 8:15, and then intense pace of study + course work + classes + presentations + cocktails + applications + cover letters.. barely get time to sit back and relax.

Fernando Bartolome's class, called "Psychological Issues in Management", got over this Monday. As resipsa mentioned, if you get past the shock of his initial class or two (he's unlike any professor I've ever seen), there are invaluable lessons there. The last few classes were great and I think I walked away with a few really important lessons.  I won't summarize the learnings and spoil it for others. If you get an opportunity, do his class - trust me, there's a reason why his classes get such high ratings.

After a  long period, where my cajoling, convincing and negotiation skills failed miserably with my friends, I watched Alien vs. Predator Requiem all by myself on my laptop. Why do people not want to watch Alien fight Predator? WHY?!  "Professor Pushan, sorry I wasn't in Singapore, or we could have gone to it together."

I suspect even Pushan would be begging his wife to go to Coffee & Cigarettes rather than sit through AvP2. Was it good?

Hey, c'mon, I bet Pushan loves AVP. You can't take away that kinship!

Was it good? hmm...I wish there were more explosions and big battles though :)
