I hope it was cold out in Kolkata here
i am rising competitors beware :
I hope for me there will be more than just Lehman's
people will start understanding the language of the humans:
I hope i can make myself famous in this mysterious world
Make money not only in equity and debt but also in gold:
I hope to meet Deepika ( padukone ) a day
how big a fan am i can say:
I hope never to lose hope
I wish to live fullest and not just to cope:
I hope i become an Extrovert someday
To have a lot of friends to celebrate on my bday:
I dont wish to hope nemore
Coz i will be perfectionist ppl will chore:
Looking down the line 10 years from now
I want to see myself more eager to grow:
Now i will try to understand more people
"Coz relationships matter" says the Holy Bible:

The Starbucks Experience by Joseph A. Michelli
Can u believe it?.....If you had invested $10,000 in the Starbucks IPO on the NASDAQ in 1992, your investment would be worth approx. $ 6,50,000 today.....staggering 5000 % growth....
"The Starbucks Experience "by Joseph Michelli examines the working of a company that has taken an ordinary product and transformed into an extraordinary business success.It shares 5 principles that led to Starbucks being one of the world's "most admired" companies according to Fortune magazine.These priciples are
1) Make it your own
2) Everything matters
3)Surprise and Delight
4)Embrace Resistance
5) Leave your mark
The book attributes the success of Starbucks to its employees- the "partners" and the experience they create for each customer.......
The company which opened its first store in Seattle, Washington in 1971 has grown by leaps and bounds since then and has 11,000 stores in 37 countries ,averages more than 35 million customers visits each week and has loyal customers who visit it 18 times a month........
The book also shares the vision of Howard Schultz, the Starbucks former CEO and current Chairman....When people come to Starbucks, they should get a comfortable setting where they are valued on a personal level and where a meaningful emotional connection is made.....This setting referred to as "Third World" by Starbucks must offer warmth and relief that sets it apart from th first two places in most people's lives : work and home....
Customers must be able to customize their beverage with the handcrafted assitance of their barista(the Italian word for bartender and the term used at Starbucks for a coffee preparer).....
I found the book very enriching and engrossing.....I recommend it as a "must read" for all the budding "Marketing Managers'

So how do I do that...??
Now sometime back... there was a question: How do u do that??
So i would reveal how do I do that.
I saw her for the first time when i came to IIFT-K. Before that i could only dream about her. I thought about her when i saw her profile on the internet and used to go thru it a lot....but she was outta my reach.
Now coming to the point, I usually bring her home with me...without the caretaker knowing. I lay her on the bed and admire her beauty. Believe me, she's awesome. Every time im with her, i get to know more about her.
I generally start from behind...i like it that way, though her front is equally good with upper half usually the best. And when i touch her...she starts making noises i cant explain here. I twist her and turn her. Then slowly and slowly i go beyond..in the depth!....till i get what i really want...till i get tired of doing it everyday...till i have nothing more exciting to do....or till i reach the front page.
&*@%$*&@^......front page???
What?? I was talking about how i first got hold of Financial Times and how i read it!!!!
What were u thinkin of???

LOVE INFORMATION SYSTEM (LIS)
He bent upon her slowly and kept his hand by hers. His warm breath kept caressing her shoulders as he looked down, his lips curved into a smile. The pleasure was evident from his pursed lips, which smiled with a joy of achievement. She looked up at him, her smiling eyes reflecting the satisfaction and victory of her confidence in his precision.
Well, before you let your untamed brains wander further, let me clarify that these two were preparing for their exams. She was sitting on the chair, reading from the book. However, one particular doubt kept troubling her. And he came like a knight in shining armour to save this pretty damsel in distress before her exams. He bent over her shoulder and looked at the book. He held the corner of the page and flipped it. And there it was – the answer to the question she was looking for. His lips curved to give way to a smile of achievement and she smiled at him in return.
That’s a new-age (love?!?) story folks. “Woh kehte hai na, Ram milaai jodi?” They look just like that – delivered in ‘bundling offer’ directly from heaven. She is petite, sweet, with an air of unharmed dignity. He is stout, macho and a ‘genius’ – according to most of his friends. If she has taken up the responsibility of securing all her friends’ careers, he will soon be walking up the mantle as the head of all students.
Wonder when will they realise what we have so long back? Well, until they do, for this Aamir Khan – Juhi Chawla of IIFT, let’s raise a toast. Cheers!!
And the Final Punch……. Ye Aamir Khan hai none other than BF’s Intellectual Capital “SOUMEN”…… and the JUHI is up to u to guess!!!!!!!
Signing off ------------"

How do you do that?
As part of our BRM (Bakar Roz Marra-ki)'s project , we are conducting a research on the BF boys in which all the residents have only one question "How do you do that?" , with no other hints given (i.e. an open-ended question!!).
So all the bfdudes are requested to kindly find some time out of their busy schedule(of flirting online) and pour in their responses.
Let the mystery be unfolded..hehehe!!!
Peace..

badla badla sa ye mahaul..!!
Lovers think..."kyun hota hai pyaar?", Married ppl think .."yeh shaadi kyun hui?", But what does a bachelor like me thinks? "bandi kab milegi?...well not exactly." The question in my mind is "saala yeh exams kyun hote hain?"
Topics of sutta sessions (lifeline of BF) has diverted from gals to IS-LM and Present Value!! My partner in crime (read roomie) is busy staring into PPTs. The angry young man has been reportedly been digging into 1 trimester books which i have kept in a place far beyond my reach. Dada is no-where to be seen coz of reasons unknown. Body Builder comes to the room to tell that he's about to finish FM. Jawani is too busy taking guest lectures for various hostels around salt lake. And here i am...writing blogs!
I sit in room where people come and go discussing new topics and all i can do is stare. Some take it for granted that i know a lot which only adds to my farji self confidence. I open my laptop to finally begin the prep...but instead i find Mario on the desktop, which shouts at me...begging me to make him take coins, eat mushrooms and get his princess. Maybe i feel happy to see someone get his love. How can i say no to him!!
I fail to put effort in what interests me and unbelievably i find no one to blame. I can see the future coming....my hostel mates in dream jobs with me scouting for options!
But days will become weeks and after that exams will end. Everything will be normal again. Sutta sessions will again become more relaxing. There will be maara-maari for headphones. Movies will again be the second most talked about topic. First, of course, will remain 'gals' for centuries to come. I wait for that day but till then...i walk alone!!
