Busy Busy busy...

There has been a lot happening now a days. Most of us here in JNU have been working our heads off for the past few days. The course work, the social life and work with the CF, don't seem to be letting down, and there won't be a lot of rest in the near future. A friend of mine (who I shall identify as the person with the fetish for green t-shirts) has been working so much he has given up on his blog. (Like so many other less persistent internet freaks) He has done well to do so, because I have to make a lot of compromises on my reading and my general academic development by coming online and spending my time posting blogs that talk on completely superficial issues.

Another friend (whom I shall identify as the 'Angry old man') said, that certain people may not be cut out for academic work like some others. Well, I am not the one to say if I am cut out for academic work. I haven't reached that stage of self-knowing yet, but whatever I am made for, I don't find so much interest in academics at the moment. I seem to like dealing with societies and people in a more practical way than reading about them from books at the moment.

I have been getting a lot of books to read, but I just haven't been finding the time or the motivation to read them. Confessions of an Economic Hitman, Freakonomics (yes, I haven't read that yet) Wretched of the Earth, and The Poet of the Underworld. Besides this, there are other uninteresting (let's remind ourselves that the adjective used is a purely subjective one) textbooks on Gramsci.

Hmm... Well, some of you might be wondering what interests I actually have. Well, let me warn you, that I am up to no good. Nothing financially suitable, nothing that will bring the world (or even other arm-chair thinkers) greater good (books). Well, I just stumbled upon a few sites today. So, here are the sites I usually frequent...

www.jugglingdb.com
www.superhandz.com
www.pentrix.com

Of course, I am not good at anything, nor am I a part of any occult... Yet... But at least you guys know where my interests are...

and I (try to) read more 'mature sites' like
www.overcomingbias.com
www.kottle.org (Yes, I do read Kottle)
www.wholenote.com (Whenever I want to read tips on dusting my guitar)
www.juggle.tv (When I need inspiration)
