Just another day....
I was looking through my diary today and realize I have way too much to blog about. And unfortunately, the events have passed and I am too lazy to go on about them. What this means is that my entire section on my HKG/China travels will probably not get reproduced on my blog. Selected memories of it perhaps... like Lychee Martini in D'Apartment (a lovely club in HKG) ....the best cocktail I have ever had in my life (not that I have had that many drinks in my life). But lychee martinis! Ahh...i actually went back there twice during my time in HongKong this summer. Hehe!I am dreaming of chilled longans right now....for those of you who haven't lived in SE Asia or been to your local Chinatown...it's a delicious fruit! Oh well, it must be something in the heat that makes me crave for a refreshing fruit. Watermelon sounds good too.
I basically spent a sleepless night worrying over a speech I was giving at a school the next day. A speech on values. I actually spoke from my heart about this because I really think it is important that one knows what your values are and hold onto them as we move into the next stage of life. Talking to these kids, I realized the lesson should really be shared with adults not these kids who still have a sense of right and wrong.
Anyway, I went for an appointment with Ishani to do fundraising and met a pleasant man who spoke about his passion for giving back. It was cool and I resolved to be as nice as him to people in future. He seemed to genuinely care about his workers and the company. A rare find in the randomness of today. Going back towards baroda, Ishani's scooty had a puntured tyre. Must be me....cos Ketan's bike had a punctured tyre when i was riding on it this morning too. LOL
Since this occurs on the highway, we go in search for a puncture wallah and I am dodging traffic on the highway in my heels trying to look as dignified as possible. :P I am now an expert in running in my high heels on most surfaces. including the muddy ground in India. yay! Skipping round the cow poop is not easy by the way and one must be very very careful.
Coming back into the city after the short scooty delay, we almost go into the wrong direction and have to turn around on the highway. I don't quite remember this whole art of cutting across traffic though I did fear for my life thinking a truck would just turn round the corner and squash us flat before I can yell "tata!". Scooty VS Tata Truck? You get the point...
So anyway, we make it back to the city safely, these city roads aren't safe too...and Ishani attempts to take me to class. But she has her schedule mixed up and so we find out there's really no class going on today. The rest of my afternoon is whiled away in front of the computer lab and trying to put together a powerpoint for the ALbatross game to be played during the Thursday school presentation.
Busy week ahead.

i love high hills
hey laiywong....r u the same gal whom i met @ inox @ baroda @ gujarat @ india???? skeptical abt that but ... if u r the same...let me tell u . i m the guy whom u found da only one in baroda who has decided something abt life....being CEO and runnin to NJ for my masters.....jus give me a hole if u r da same one...!!
Hi laiywong....
finding somones blog wasnt that tough...
anyways ... heres the answer of your question
1st of all there are two types of people in india who are goin to abroad
1st type of people are those who just wana go there as they hav relatives over there and they think that US or whatever country is glorious ..havin cool life there..cars and lights lights and healthy atmosphere..what they get is totally opposite of that coz most of them are not well educated, and finally they do labor there and could run their life with family stingily.....cant even see a broadway show of $300 with family ever in their 30-40 yrs life in US.
2nd type of people are professionals who cant get specialized courses and research facilities in India in which US and other countries are too ahead
if i want to do my masters here i can do that only in conventional computer science
so people like me dont go jus by watching hollywood movies and by gettin attracted, we go there to get something wich we cant get here
and let me remind you that i never said that i wana sattle down in US in our conversation @ inox., I Love my country INDIA a lot and i always wanted it to be da best and i can see india goin on that path...havin some political problems and low education level prevents it from being a coutnry like US, but i hope that will be recovered in some years ahead
To be frank and not sarcastic, let me tell u that the people who will join u in AIESSEC in india, most of them don do that for world peace, they do that for going abroad
but i would really like to join you ppl for world peace and i appriciate all your efforts to make your mission a grand success..!!
talk to u soon again.. u can add my IM

"BREAKING NEWS"
===============
-Energy and Asset Technology, Inc. (EGTY) owns a global license to market
the genetically enhanced Global Cedar growth trees, with plans to
REVOLUTIONIZE the forest-timber industry.
These newly enhanced Globa| Cedar trees require only 9-12 years of growth
before they can be harvested for lumber, whereas worldwide growth time for
lumber is 30-50 years.
Other than growing at an astonishing rate, the Global Cedar has a number
of other benefits. Its natural elements make it resistant to termites, and
the lack of oils and sap found in the wood make it resistant to forest fire,
ensuring higher returns on investments.
T
he wood is very lightweight and strong, lighter than Poplar and over twice
as strong as Balsa, which makes it great for construction. It also has
the unique ability to regrow itself from the stump, minimizing the land and
time to replant and develop new root systems.
Based on current resources and agreements, EGTY projects revenues of $140
Million with an approximate profit margin of 40% for each 9-year cycle. With
anticipated growth, EGTY is expected to challenge Deltic Timber Corp. during
its initial 9-year cycle.
Deltic Timber Corp. currently trades at over $38.00 a share with about $153
Million in revenues. As the reputation and demand for the Global Cedar tree
continues to grow around the world EGTY believes additional multi-million
dollar agreements will be forthcoming. The Global Cedar nursery has produced
about 100,000 infant plants and is developing a production growth target of
250,000 infant plants per month.
Energy and Asset Technology is currently in negotiations with land and business
owners in New Zealand, Greece and Malaysia regarding the purchase of their popular
and profitable fast growing infant tree plants. Inquiries from the governments of
Brazil and Ecuador are also being evaluated.
Conclusion:
The examples above show the Awesome, Earning Potential of little
known Companies That Explode onto Investor�s Radar Screens.
This s-t0ck will not be a Secret for long. Then You May Feel the Desire to Act Right
Now! And Please Watch This One Trade!!
GO EGTY!
