Diary 149: Lazy and Study Day

Yesterday I slept at around 3:30 am. I worked on the essays and sent a version to few of my friends and even Mahak. Anyways, today I woke up at around 10:45 am. I brushed my teeth, and had breakfast. I watched the TV for a while, and then went online. I realized that Alok didn't like the version. I explained my reasons for adding that line. Then, I started looking out for possible schools to apply for. I realized that the essay topics are way too ahead of me than expected. I decided to study Verbal for a while then. At around 2:30 pm, I had my lunch. Then, I watched the TV for a while. I was feeling very lazy but I decided to take help from my sister in understanding few concepts in English. To my surprise, her explaining really helped. I moved on with the studies and also watched the ongoing cricket match. In between, I was so bored that I slept for about an hour. I woke up and multi tasked between studies and cricket again. Later, I had some Tea. Then, my mom, dad and sister left for shopping. I continued with the multi-tasking but later I had to prepare the dinner myself, as it was getting late. I ate wheat-flakes with milk. KKR were playing Somerset again, but now in the league match. KKR didn't start off well, but somehow managed to reach 161 in their 20 overs. I left for Gym then. Today was workout day, and I performed all the exercises. I returned home to find out that KKR are almost out of the game. But later KKR fought back. In the end, Somerset over-ruled KKR, and won the match in the last over. Then, I had my bath, had my post work out dinner, and wrote this diary. Next, I plan to watch the new episode of Castle, and then work on essays or study for a while. I plan to sleep by 3:00 am. 

Diary 148: Shopping, Cleaning and MI Day

Yesterday I slept at around 3:00 am. Today, I woke up at around 10:30 am. Well, before I brushed, I was kind of involved in the cleaning of my room. My mom and dad attacked the room and started cleaning up the drawers. I also had to help in that. Then, I brushed my teeth, and helped in the cleaning up activities again. This went on till noon. Then, I went online and started working on my essays again. I wrote some rubbish lines and later rejected them myself. I need to add actions instead of words. Anyways, my mom informed me that we are going to Vashi today for shopping. I nodded in agreement then. At around 2:30 pm, we had our lunch. Then, I watched the TV for a while. Then I started watching the match between Cobra and NSW. At around 4:30, I went to take a bath, and got ready to leave. Then, we all went out for shopping. After roaming here and there, and finding the shops affiliated to the ticket vouchers, and also eating our dinner at Navratna hotel, we returned home. I drove back home. Then, I realized that it was already the time for Gym. Also, the match between CSK and MI had started. I got ready for gym. At gym, it was cardio day. So, I performed all my cardio exercises and was also watching the match there. It seemed that MI were going to lose very heftily. I returned home and saw that even Pollard was out. Only Malinga and Harbhajan were left now. With no hopes, I started watching the match again. The match turned suddenly. Malinga hit a quick 37* and changed the complexion of the match. Finally, MI won by 3 wickets and CSK were stunned in silence. After that, I took a bath, and then wrote this diary. Also, I got a demo link from the developer. Well, to be frank, I hate the background of the design and will tell them about it tomorrow or day after tomorrow. Next, I plan to work on essays or study Verbal. I plan to sleep by 3:00 am.

Diary 147: Lazy and TIME registration Day

Yesterday I slept quite early than usual, at around 1:15 am. I was kind of tired. Today I woke up at around 11:15 am. I brushed my teeth, had my usual breakfast, and went online. As usual, there was no work, and so I started working on the essays. At around 1 pm, I decided to go to the bank to deposit my salary cheque, and also register for the TIME test series. Well, only four of the tests are remaining, and hence they were kind of taken aback by my request but I handled it and also got a good discount. Then, I returned home and started looking at the essays again. I sent the sample start to one of my friends who said that it was fine. Also, I was a bit confused on the re-use of some lines and paragraphs in the new essays, but the reply from ISB's team meant that I should write a new one. Anyways, I was feeling very lazy after all this, and decided to take a break from all this. At around 3:00 pm, I had my lunch. I got a call from the gym that I have an appointment today at around 7:00 pm. So, I wrote down all the details about the diet in the form. Later in the evening, I had some tea and watched the TV for a while. Then, I had my appointment at the gym, where I got a new diet plan. I have lost overall 6 kgs after I joined the gym. Then, I started watching the match between RCB and Warriors. Well, RCB started off very nicely and reached a decent score of 171, but the Warriors came back very nicely and reached the target on the last ball of their innings. At gym, it was workout day and I performed all the exercises completely. I returned home and started watching the TV. Then I had my post workout dinner and returned to my room. I wrote this post, and next I plan to study verbal for a while, and then sleep by 3:00 am.

Diary 146: Office and Salary Day

Yesterday I slept at around 3:00 am. I woke up at around 8:00 am, and got ready for office. There was some PF related work, and so I had to go. Also, I had to take my salary cheque. So, I left with my Dad after some breakfast, and reached the office at around 10:40 pm. Well, Sushma and all were obviously making fun of me because I was in office after so long. But, I was fine with that, and moved on. Today's focus was on the salaries and tax calculations. Ankit had provided some rough estimation about it with the help of an excel sheet, but I modified it and made a neater excel sheet which calculates tax as per the user's requirement. I had my lunch. Although today I couldn't follow it by the book, but I didn't drink the tea at all. Later, some of us went to meet the CA of our company, and had a nice discussion on the salary structures and the investment details. I loved that discussion. Then, I left for home. I reached Dad's office at around 5:30 pm, and started thinking about the essays there. I wrote a few lines roughly to capture the ideas, but was not at all happy with the essay. Anyways, then I left for home and reached home at around 8:00 pm. I had some Tea, and then started watching KBC. I had my pre work out dinner, and then left for the Gym at 9:30 pm. Today was cardio day and performed all the exercises normally. I returned at around 10:40 pm, and took a bath. I went online, had my post work out dinner and then wrote this diary. Next, I plan to work on the essays again, and then sleep by 3:00 am.

Diary 145: No gym and No studies Day

NOTE: Today, one year ago, I took my GMAT and I scored 750.


Yesterday I slept at around 5:15 am. I was happy that I completed the DI portion more or less. Today, I woke up at around 10:30 am. I woke up early because my mom had to go to a kitty party. Then, I brushed my teeth, had my breakfast and started watching some TV. After that, I decided to start with one of the ISB essays. I was facing really hard time deciding on the words and all. I came up with a somewhat cliched beginning but for now, I will stick with it. I and my sister solved some questions together from the International English Olympiad book for Class 9, and it was a good refreshment for the memory. At around 2:00 pm, we had our lunch. After the lunch, my sister started watching TV, and I started working on my essay again. I couldn't do much about it though. I tried to gain inspiration from somewhere; recalled my days at Kota, my struggle and what not, but couldn't frame a story out of those thoughts. Later, I went to pick up my mom from the kitty party and then returned home, and started watching TV. I started watching the cricket match between Leics and Ruhunu. I didn't pay much attention to it. Later, I started watching the match between KKR and Somerset. This match was the decider and the match had to be close, for KKR to qualify for the main championship. I stopped working on the essays and started watching this match. It was an exciting match indeed. The Somerset reached a hefty total of 166 in their 20 overs. Meanwhile, there was no gym today as there was a gym event. So, I skipped my post work out dinner. KKR needed 153 to qualify, but they started terribly and lost 3 quick wickets. However, they managed to recover, and reached 155 in their 20 overs. Both the teams qualified and everyone was happy. Also, I got a call from Ankit, who said that I need to come to office tomorrow as there is some PF related work. I was fine with it, and was a bit excited. I wondered, how they would react to a soham minus 6 odd kgs. Then, I wrote this post, and now I plan to work on the essays for a while, and then sleep early by 2:00 am.
