Day 26

Day 26 (6th December)

I am in Bangalore since last 6 days and the task is not fully completed yet. I cannot wait here indefinitely. So we went to Residency Road to seize the bull by its horns. And it seems to have worked. But I am not celebrating yet. 

On the way back we stopped at the legendary Thom's Bakery in Fraser Town to pick up Plum Cakes and other goodies. 

News about my column - Chemingineering - winning an award came late in the evening. I am happy but not delirious. Coincidentally, the 24th edition of the column was mailed out today, 2 weeks ahead of schedule.

Day 86

Day 86 (7 th October) Today was the kind of day when I did not achieve much; yet I didn’t waste my time. Preparation for tomorrow’s lecture brought fresh insights. This is the joy of teaching. PS – This blog is now 2 weeks old and it is helping me to channelise my positive energy.

Day 93

Day 93 (30 th September) The day was consumed in preparing for tomorrow’s class, always a learning experience. Ryder Cup action played out in the background. I look for new things to present and new ways of presenting old things. I have complete autonomy in that I don’t have to follow any set syllabus or a prescribed textbook. Identifying and locating information is the easy part. Presenting them in a lucid way is the challenging part. Sometimes the presentation just assembles itself intuitively.

Day11

Day 11 (21st December)  Mailed the AI column. Looking for a title. Asked twitter, but got no response. I have couple of ideas in mind and will choose one.  Received a proper consulting request. Well more or less. Responded tersely because I am not desperate. Meeting with good friend at a bar that serves exotic craft beers. The place was overrun by women in early 40s celebrating silver jubilee of their class reunion. Almost all of them were surprisingly trim.
