Bob McDonald’s Visit

Heard Bob McDonald speak today at Purdue.

Back from Himachal

Back from Himachal. It was a 5 day trip that I will remember for some time. I met many people and had too much food. Not sure when my next visit will be.

Mirror

the shimmering surface shows the reflection of thyself;a burnt face and a twisted trunkwho is to blame? me, you or them?the hatred and the urge to smash the face,break it into pieces and crush the legsinability to stand the presence,and the sickening feelingthe downward look, thus, when seenand a shame for the life unseen

I’m improving in Critical Reasoning questions. Hit rate 8/10 on an average. Hope to increase it further. Taking preparation slow at present. I will give a mock sometime soon. Will fix a date for GMAT as soon as I hit 42 in verbal. Slept pretty early and could only say hello to Abby over phone.
