First of all I Wish everyone a happy diwali!!!!
Some people keep asking whats the reason behind all these festivals apart from a big story behind it...Somehow I believe every festival in India has a specific scientific reason behind it...Yes Diwali also has it..
"Looking at the Deepavali festival from the scientific point of view, it should be noted that at one time in the distant past, our ancestors lived in the Arctic region (the polar region). In this region, darkness prevailed for six months. The sun appears on Mesha Sankranti day (the sun entering the Aries sign of Zodiac). The sun sets in this region on Tula Sankranti day (when the sun enters Libra). In the movement between these two signs, there is an interval of six months. After the sun sets in Libra, the dark half-year starts. Today is the fourteenth day (Chaturdashi) in the month of Kartik. It is the New Moon day (Amaavaasya). This month is called Kaumudi. The people in the polar region used to start lighting their lamps from this day. The lighting of the lamp is not without significance, as they would be in darkness for a long period. They described the lamp that was lit as "Nitya-jyoti" (the perennial)."
Ok. I felt that nothing interesting or unique was happening in my life to share it with others..I always had/have this desire of more intersting stuffs to happen in my life which others find it really attractive that they talk about with much appreciation...And i found the solution for this would be my action towards my passion(mba) without any further delays..Ofcourse the results can't be seen immediately tomorrow..only 'time' has the answer for it..After pondering upon my thoughts for a much long time, I decided I have to do a MBA in one of the IIM's and not outside India(whatever the heck reason for it)..Now that am into this IT field, there is no other choice apart from this..So, I cant say 'i will try to get into one of the IIMs', rather, I have to say 'I will get into one of the IIMs'....So am going to start my preparations from today and document briefly every step that will help me in advancing towards my place in one of the IIM's (be it be solving maths, english stuffs, forums, reading a book or even watching a movie which somehow helped me in my path towards IIM :-) )..
ok so here is the plan..everyday from today (October 18th 2009) till same day next year(2010), I would be answering the below questions to keep track of what am doing

Irrespective of if I do the above stuffs or not, the above details will be logged in the blog everyday 11:00 PM IST..Apart from that other blogs if any will go in seperately...
