It’s long since I wrote last time!

Continuing with the title of the post, last few days were very hectic but rocking as well. Now, when I've officially retd. from the post of Students General Secretary, IIT Madras, I'm jobless and have more time to write about the things which happened in last few days.

I got a chance to meet Mr. Michael Balter, Col. Peter Garretson and Kris Gopalakrishnan. I really got impressed by what Col. Garretson shared on "Space Solar Alliance for Future Energy: The Biggest Idea in Space and Energy" and Balter on "What made humans modern?"

Last few days I was also actively involved with NDTV's "Youth for Change": A series of interviews regarding the views/concerns of the first time voters. This is my appearance on the show. (i missed the other clips!)


The high resolution video of the same can be seen @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFywKFP3zJM&feature=related

Other show with Mr. Vinod Dua is soon going to be aired. (mostly on 24th April'09)

And yeah the best thing which happened is something about which I am very passionate: Film Making. Thanks to Adieu'09 film making competition. Adieu is the official farewell function for all the graduating students of IIT Madras, organized by the IIT Madras Alumni Association. Our entry got the 2nd prize and was appreciated by one and all. Special thanks to Harshal for believing in me and bringing back the energy and enthusiasm in me to work on this film. Here is the Adieu'09 video.

Lots of other activities also took place which include frequent visits to the insti hospital, stadium , dept. lab (YES!) etc etc. Other than that there were hostel nites, treats, classes and yeah the night outs! I am enjoying my last few days of IIT Life and then I'll be joining Deloitte in Hyd.

With this I end this post and request the viewers to VOTE (for the right candidates) in the upcoming Loksabha Elections!

yeah... u never asked me for help and there is a saying "IF YOU ARE GOOD AT SOMETHING THEN DONT DO IT FOR FREE!" and I also believe in "Actions speak louder than the words!" so doesn't matter if u believe whether I made it or not...
