An imposter, a prostitute and me

by Sharique on July 24, 2007

My trip to Delhi last weekend was really happening for many reasons. As soon as I got down from the train, someone approached me-

Idiot: Excuse me!

Me: (I turn back). Yes

Idiot: I am a Chartered Accountant from IIM Ahmedabad and I am supposed to return to Mumbai tonight. I have blocked a ticket to Mumbai but need to pay 3000 at the counter. The thing is that I lost my purse. I have 2400 so I need another 600 to take that flight home. I promise to return by tomorrow as soon as the banks open.

From being a student to a professional

by Sharique on July 17, 2007

Life was so tension free a couple of months ago. The transition from the life of a carefree student to the hectic life of a professional has been mentally demanding. Last year in college was especially peaceful because the course load was light. There was no fixed schedule, mornings used to start at 1 in the afternoon and the day used to end as late as 3 AM. It was the lack of money which restricted me to do lot of things. I had all the time in the world to blog or do whatever I wanted to do.

Death of WWE superstar Chris Benoit

I am a huge fan of WWE. I understand that the whole thing is concocted drama (an alternative of our hindi melodramas) but still I enjoy the show. The recent death of Chris Benoit comes as a big shock to me. Edie Gurero’s death was also a big shock to me. Is the drama really getting into reality?

The 40-year old was found dead in his home having hanged himself on a weight pulley machine. It is believed he also strangled his wife Nancy to death, as well as his son Daniel who was suffocated.
