I am back folks  Just when you thought that I would become a lot less active in terms of posting (spamming I mean ) I am here with a new thread.
Learnings from two days stay @ XLRI
- Jamshedur is a very small town  not much in terms of sightseeing
- You dont need to sightsee when you have so much "greenery" on the campus 
- Classes begin at 8:30 in the mornings 
- You can keep ninja_talli busy by giving him a lappy with games loaded on it 
- Everything is way cheaper here whn compared to delhi so more value for money (See I have already learnt a bit of Fin Mgmt )
Rest to be continued soon 
krishanu, mbaankit, ninja_talli and others will also post on this thred to give you a sneak peek into life in Jharkhand

every room in the campus (except the mess and hostel rooms ) have ACs operating at sub 15 degrees ...

Learnt a imp thing; posts can't be edited in this section 
Band?? I wonder if they'll take in bathroom singers Must remember to ask them
Now that Bugs has taken the drive from me by starting the thread, I'll make sure my posts on this thread exceed his 
XLRI - Beautiful campus. Decent ratio of gender; naturally the PMIR with a more healthy one!
Except for the TATA areas, the rest of the city is a mess! Reminds me of Gujarat especially the old parts of the gujarati cities
Had a two day "holiday" as classes started only today. Went to the market area then to buy some basic commodities. Here in J'pur, there is no concept of meter in autos; it's all between you and the 'ric owner. So it all depends on ur "negotiating" skills; which in just a short period of 2 days showed how good negotiation skills we had! Most of the time we just went along with what the ric owner demands. Ye IT wale na, paise ki value nahi jante
Had a lot of chat in the city; at rates just around 5 bucks each dish! I love J'pur!!
In pune, I thought the city transportation sucks; what to do with the rickety buses and noisy ric's! Here in J'pur its even worse! There is NO city transportation; maybe there might be one; but haven't seen one in the last two days 
Either way, I never felt more desperate for my Pulsar My roomie better sends it here by this weekend! 
Had a first "serious" class session today; Descriptive Statistics!!! It was all greek to me  Everything went overhead! Bah! Who cares! I got a seat next to a cute chick :lookroun:
