On a bike ride in India
In a land where motorbikes are meant to transport entire families, I had the opportunity of going on a dirt bike and traveling around 6 kilometers on it! Dinner at the F Cafe & Lounge was great, and so was the ride. Here's my view of the road.

Solstice is special
A lot of interesting things, good and bad, have been happening in my life in the past few weeks. But nothing has given me the urge to immediately blog about... except THIS!
So what is this thing that has made its way into my "MUST BLOG" list? Nothing but the simple pleasure of having great (and I mean GREAT) food at the Goel Dining Hall. Granted that this meal cost me twice as much as the usual, the food was definitely more than twice better! I'm partial to it for the lack of spice... but it's mostly because I took small portions at a time and didn't taste the spice.
For those who have been here and have left... just view the photos and you'll see.

It's a Small World After All
I did not meet another Filipino in India! That's weird! Seems like apart from India, I meet at least 1 Filipino no matter where I head to. Just think, 3 months in India = 0 Filipinos. 7-hour layover in Singapore yesterday = at least 30 Filipinos.
So why do I say it's a small world? East Asian faces were a luxury during my stay at ISB so imagine my surprise when I saw familiar non-ISB faces at ISB! Those who were at the Asia MBA Camps (1 & 2) will remember Professor Gilbert Bok from SKKU... and those at the 2nd camp may remember Hoo-suk & Sung-ho too!

Turns out, SKKU has arranged a South Asian trip for their Asia MBA students and ISB was one of their stopping points. So we caught up on what everyone's been up to, obviously, a few of us are still completing our MBAs, but most of them have graduated and found great jobs. So I should be looking forward to job hunting...
