Business Studies

-- Had listened to a friend of mine doing business studies in Stan, and well these are my afterthoughts --

This is what these business kinda schools do to you; make you equipped with enough lyrics to sing your way past any kind of subject creating utter chaos in the tiny meeny miny crumbs of muscles that people call their brains, leaving them with a disgusting feeling of a newbie in a law school campus who finds himself utterly incapable of finding the right words which might allow him to sputter some multi syllable sounds that again "might" allow him to converse with another person who is not in the same misfit state as him.

TEN

--It is a golden number we always come across when we are listing priorities. People are so swamped by it that anything and everything that they think about comes in packs of TEN. Don’t believe me?
Let’s look at this:

Best movies of the year; the list goes up to…10.
Favorite songs… again 10.
Talk about the Top Universities; and you obviously mean… The Top 10.
FBI Most Wanted... 10
Heard at what number Downing Street the British Prime Minister lives? Let me guess, 10.
What is our whole number system based on? …10
Wickets to take… 10
GPA, I wish I had… 10
Number of Commandments… they had to be 10
Number of items on this list … intentionally 10

I can list out 10 more things like this but seriously, why do somehow all kinds of broad rankings extend themselves to the figure of 10. And not just rankings, you think of any number and chances are it is going to have a 10 in it. Take Google for instance, a spelling gone wrong of the word Googol. Googol, a humungous number thought right of the blue. You know what that number is -- 10^100, basically 10 multiplied hundred times! I mean people just can’t get enough of it. --

Well, here are my Ten things which feature high on my to do list:

• Go for a course on Paragliding
• Learn to play Guitar
• Get my self a couple of these R/C Cars (A Ford GT Model)
• Go on a trek in Tibet
• Read up on Architecture
• Get completely sloshed out on drink party thrown by a friend
• Be able to converse with a stranger for more than 10 minutes
• Get some cooking lessons from Mom
• Learn Horse Riding
• Go on without sleeping for a week (no sleeping equivalent to 3 hours/day)

Hakuna Matata

Hakuna Matata...one of my most used farewell greeting. Inspired entirely from the animation "Lion King" the meaning of the phrase (from the song) goes as follows...

Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
