His Intelligence Personified

Hi .... hi ... meet him..this is ____.. he has a MBA degree in General Management from the University of Denver, Colorado, a Master of Science degree in Computer Science from George Mason University, Fairfax, Virginia, and a Bachelor of Engineering degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Mysore, India. And also has a Juris doctorate degree. He speaks more than 5 languages and is currently learning the third font of Japanese.. loves to play golf and has traveled around the world and is settled in US.. Meet her ... she can drive. And I sink into my seat. I have never been nervous when it comes to meetings coz I usually know what people wanna hear. But this was different. There was no common level in between to strike up a conversation, no common ground except for the fact that he is a maharashtrian.

I have heard so much about him but truth be told he didn't know anything about me .. but there was nothing to know. And the MOM is as follows:-

One: free time is not sleeping time and watching TV time. Its reading, learning, writing, exploring.
Two: love a sport or something that is physical.
Three: No carbs , no sugar, and exercise
Four: Japanese think too much and try to put themselves in others shoes first ..they do everything to the extreme.. even porn
Five: Activate your taste buds
Six: Travel as much as you can coz the airline company is soon gonna start caring about losing money
Seven: Whatever people say, Art Of Living course works.
Eight: The french serve good food.
Nine: Indian roads can have huge stones placed right in middle of the road so watch while you drive
Ten: If the food taste good, chances are its unhealthy

And a nice chit chat conversation with him, my boss and his wife. He mentioned about a book. A book that made him cry and later we went to a store near by and he insisted to buy me that book. I was excited at the same time it was weird to take something from someone you've met for the first time. But he didn't seem new at all. I told him if he wanted to buy me that book, he has to sign it. And he did.
I know you're wondering which book it was and I wont be selfish to keep the name to myself. Its called A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry. I met a person who was kind, who didnt make me feel like this big owing to his background. He made me wanna become somebody. All in all a great day

A lil smarter than yesterday
