Gurgaon

Since around a week I am in Gurgaon, the technology capital of North India. Some quick observations: 1. Gurgaon is DLF. DLF is Gurgaon. They have built the whole freakin' township. Everything else is just support and built after that. 2. The public transport cannot be called worse than anywhere else in India. Because it doesn't EXIST. 3. Well ok, that was an overstatement. But really, there are no buses. The Gurgaon metro is still being built. The Delhi metro just extends till HUDA city center and is the only saving grace. Auto rickshaw wallahs are robbers. 4. Delhi is not that far off, thanks to the Delhi metro's extension. I have no idea how Delhites coped before the metro. Seriously. Cars, I believe. Couldn't see the famed T3 at the Delhi airport. Perhaps when I take off from here..

End of First year

Section E on "Black Day" Tomorrow is the last day of classes in my first year here at WIMWI. I never thought I would say this, but here it is: I am going to miss it. Very much. The beauty sections and the groups at WIMWI is they enable us to come so close so quickly. As my good friend put it, we have  " pulled each other's legs, argued with each other, put night-outs and studied together, lived through moments of joy and distress". I don't think I have been through as much or learnt so much anytime else as I have in these 10 months here at the WIMIWI.  The emphasis here is the speed at which things unfold here. It was just yesterday that I entered this place, and now the already tucchas are leaving, leaving us to be the new tucchas. Time for the goodbyes. Time for the 'last __ ' . I bid all the seniors farewell and the very best in life. And yes, Section E rocks. The hell out of this place.
