Suit Up

So yeah, uh, hi. It's 3:55 PM on a Saturday, I was sleeping on the sofa of IISERB’s central library, such a cozy and cool place, you know. Today is MUN, yes, Model United Nations in my college, the day when everyone wears ironed suits and formals, though some wear them only for clicking pictures which later are used for a LinkedIn profile picture. MUN, a very popular format in schools and colleges that simulates the actual UN set up, began as a series of student-led League of Nations simulations. The first simulations were called “international assembly”, first held at Oxford University in 1921. As far as I remember, while being in school, I was introduced to IIMUN, which stands for Indian International MUN, I never attended any of them.   Have you watched, or at least heard of the TV series –  Suits  ? If not, I highly recommend you to watch it. It’s about law and business. It’s the only series I’ve ever watched in my 19 years of life even though I have infinite high spe...

  So this is me sitting in a room called brainspace at IISERB writing this at 4:55 PM on 13 th of April. Last night I finished reading a book written by Ashneer Grover – ‘ Doglapan’ . So thought of sharing what all it is about with you guys. Ashneer Grover, now, has a Bad Boy Businessman persona after his appearance in the Indian edition of Shark Tank. In his book – Doglapan , he has written about himself, his life, his business, and much more. He, like many other founders of many other start-ups has a his own story of a coup , which, again, like many other business coups is very interesting to learn about. Business, always excited me, not because of the money, but because of the action, money is just to keep check of the scores. I feel, business is action without violence. Ive read biographies of many entrepreneurs like Zuck, Musk, Gates, Jobs. Reading about their adventurous business endeavours and coups always had been very exc iting for me. Today, I got my goddam cycle repa...

Why did I just randomly start this blog?

Well, starting this blog wasn’t just a random thought, it was a planned, though procrastinated idea in my head (which is full of some random thoughts) for a long while. Sitting in hostel room, on my desk at 11:35 PM on a Tuesday, after a bath, I thought, “ lets just start!”, and here I am with this piece of writing, I know It makes absolutely no sense to read it until here, I know, I know. Ugh, I again procrastinated and am writing this line the next day. Uh, nevermind. I really have no absolute idea about what am I gonna continue this blog on, maybe my everyday life, I might even start multiple blogs for different stuff which I haven’t yet figured out.   So, today’s 12 th of April, 2023. Im writing this piece sitting on my desk on the 4 th floor of hostel 6 of IISER Bhopal, coming to IISERB, I don’t know how many of you reading this might’ve heard about IISER (Indian Institute of Science Education and Research), I wont be surprised if majority of you haven’t even hear...
