People For Animals??

this would be an interesting anecdote.. couple weeks ago, i was on my way to my office.. it is fun to walk during the morning hours, the streets are kinda buzzling with activities.. the street vendors showing up in groups with their wares for the day.. the fisher woman with a bunch of fresh catch from the beaches.. the diary shop selling the freshly arrived packaged milk.. all these make my everyday walk eventful and memorable..

it was impossible to ignore the wayside scene.. two boys, with shabby outfits and unkempt hair, were beating a pair of bulls almost to death.. the poor souls were screaming,with tears rolling down their cheeks.. they were tired and finding it difficult to raise themselves on their legs... the boys continued to beat them with an iron rod.... i was shocked to see this barbaric act.. with my temper in check, i asked the boys to stop beating those poor creatures.. ignoring my warnings and threats of informing PFA, they continued their cruel rituals...

back at work, i called up the city office of People for Animals and explained the whole incident to their volunteer - a middle aged lady, i guess- on phone.. she asked for my contact details and gave me a detailed class on how I should proceed further to move the case and work for the cause of those poor animals.. well, i was supposed to go to the PFA office, register my complaint, get back to the scene with the concerned PFA Activist and charge the case.. it was demanding and required almost half of my day, something that required an afterthought... finally, I did decide to decline and keep my protest within... meanwhile, those rustic lads were in action, gettng the life outta those hapless souls... and they had the last laugh I beleive... wither PFA? is that the way it is supposed to act? am clueless...

BSchool Dreams...

well, it has been a while I blogged a piece.. i was supposedly busy all these days, but being truthful to myself, i was not. i was kinda lazy to grab myself up, to jot down something.. and this post, would probably, see me back in my spirits!! ahem... ahem!

going back to a bschool after a few years stint in the industry has always been my dream and now is the right time to do so.. mostly, because I am knida getting an inner urge to do an MBA, the work place demands a scientifc basis now, rather than sticking to the ad-hoc and time tested decision making approaches, I would like to apply my management and analytical skills to do that. and getting myself trained would be the only solution..

being a bit prudent, quitting my job to pursue my dream is somewhat outa question now.. i have a family to support, kids are growing up... their schooling is important to me.. well, everything points to the need for financial stability.. and i might as well think about the DirecWay option to pursue a satellite MBA from XLRI or IIMC.. the courses are pretty expensive though, I need to shell out around 2lacs for an XLRI programme spanning 14 months!!!! seriously thinking about applying for the next in take... wish me good luck!

so long
