Life@XLRI -
13-06-2007, 05:53 PM
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

hmmm... Finally this thread hasd been opened... talli allowing Bugs to do so
Life till nnow in the past 36 hrs have been fine... humid weather to start with but then rain gods came to oyur rescue today...
rooms are fine (when compared with DCE )
rooms should have been much better (when compared to Infy Mysore )
anyways, a lush green campus is good for the eyes... gals?? ummm...have spotted a few of them... waiting to see more of them 
every room in the campus (except the mess and hostel rooms ) have ACs operating at sub 15 degrees ...
have tried out the gym already...there is also a cool Baddy court, and a grocery whose owner sits with an Apple Mac book  (Talking of Status!!! )
more to come.... Keep watchin this thread!

Okkk....
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 :eh:
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:
XL rawwks!

As proposed by ninja ....we hereby announce the formation of the Bathroom singers club..........well as far as public transport goes havent seen any but sure saw some private buses which cld give the fevicol ad truck an inferiority complex......
