Daily Note: Rain & Logo
It is raining here, and to reflect the yuckiness, as well the longing rain induces here for other rains in other places, a brief logo change. Perhaps, at some point I should go to color? Not that it matters for a near dormant blog!

Note: At The Turn of The Year
On this New Year morning, I listen to the British genius Nitin Sawhney's Boatman from his album 'Human', in Bengali, repeatedly, to write out the translation, for it sums up quite appropriately this past year of mine.
Baroshekar aador meke Bheshe elam sagor theke Baleer toteh notun disha Adar theke alor mesha Batash bhora bhalo basha Ki kandaree baicho toree aral theke
Caressed by someone's love, I drifted ashore from the sea.
The sands glitter new directions. Light blends with darkness. The wind is full of love.
Who is that boatman, Who paddles my boat, Whom I can't see?
May the boatman keep you well folks, this year too!

Life Status: Going Over To The Dark/Light Side
To all my well wishers & Force senders:
After many long hand to hand combats with McKinsey & Company gurus, I have been deemed fit to join the dark (or is it light?) side. So as soon I get that sticky little PhD thesis out of the way, I am headed upto (the currently snowed out) CT/NYC/NJ area to give up my life for a whole load of training (for this I will be sent to Europe for 3 months!), crazy traveling work etc. I want to thank ya'll for your best wishes. It kept me going in that very long November.
Cheers! -Sashi
PS: And since all artists shouldn't forget to thank the muse(s) who give them courage as they wrestle with the angelic demons, I thank my muse too. poke poke
