Is Gossip good?

Am writing this post because of some furor that the Gossip column seems to have created. While we all enjoy reading about other peoples gossips, it seems to have offended some people this time. Based on their complaints, a few lines have been deleted from the last column.

This post is just to clarify certain things:
  • Things mentioned in the gossip column may or may not be true
  • It is meant to be taken in a lighter sense
  • The intention of this column is not to hurt anyones feelings
  • If you feel some things should not be up in the blog, feel free to call/sms/email me. Will be happy to improvise the blog
It feels bad when you 'unwantingly' become the reason to hurt some people because of the blog. The point of having a gossip column is to "Gossip". All the terms used in it are fictional and meant to be taken on lighter side. I, as the author of the blog, do not intend to insult/hurt/harm any reader of the blog through "From the Gossip Factory" column.
But then that is the thing with gossip - You always enjoy it till it is targeted on you.
No ones name is mentioned anywhere directly in any "Gossip" post. I will not be responsible for the assumptions that people make about themselves or anyone else. I repeat, the gossips may or may not be true.

So, is Gossip on Pandoras box good?
Pour in your opinions as comments to this post
Be happy! Cheers! :) :) :)

Insight'10 + Some Farewell + The Circle

And after a long holiday, am back on the blog! LIBA saw a gamut of happenings in this break :)
While I am typing this blog, half of the hostel junta has changed their eye color to "Red". It feels like being in a zombie movie where people around you turn into zombies and you worry about who is next :)
Get well soon to all the affected species!
FSS-LIBA Insight'10

Insight'10 stood to its promise of being bigger and better when the curtains fell to a glamorous end of 2 Insightful days. The rockstar of the event was Dr.A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, Former President of India, and a current heartthrob. (As I type these lines, I could very well experience the flashback of those electrifying 1.5 hrs) The punch lines cum oath that the rockstar gave was "I will work with integrity, I will succeed with Integrity".

Apart from him, Insight witnessed a number of Industry stalwarts who graced the podium and shared their views on this years theme - NH2050 to the top: A runway powered by innovation"
Hats off to the "Precious metal" girl a.k.a. Goldie D'souza and team for all the efforts put in organizing the event. And of course the big boss and the guiding light Prof.JK who has been inspiring Insights to get bigger and better year after year!
The legacy of Chennai Trade Center has been roped in by the team this time. Hope the Juniors take it a step ahead next year :)
Farewell
Yes, the word is not easy for many people, but you cannot avoid it. It will be coming a term early for 5 of the Second years - KD, Selvina, Shruthi, Chhavi and Sleepy Joseph. A month filled with nostalgia lies ahead *Tears in my eyes*. Looking forward to a lot of treats and photograph sessions...
The Circle
Diwali saw a lot of fireworks on the Email group of the senior batch. Reason: Should Diwali be on 4th or 5th Nov? A number of people poured in their opinions and arguments and fights. This issue created a lot of frustration to the Circle head. In the end, Diwali was celebrated officially on 4th and unofficialy on 5th. Both the days were super fun :)
Another news from the stables of Circle - Chrysalis is the buzz around!
And this time, its not just the Circle alone; its like Captain Planet when all the forces combine to revive the event that fell heads down last year. And yes, this year it will surely be a mega event! All the best to The Circle!
From the Gossip Factory
This is the season that Dr.Love looks forward to! Its in the air again...
Former Chef of second year has given his heart away to the spice of Kerala. Its better late than never :)
Another news from God's own country; not new but just an affirmation to previously reported news - The relationship between the Kerala boy and the Hyderabadi biryani is scaling new heights day by day
P.S. The above examples are a result of hungry stomach :P
The "flame" boy and his best friend have moved on from convincing everyone that they are just good "friends" to what Dr.Love likes to hear the most ;)
LIBA has modernized: "The retired hurt" boy from first year who was earlier interested in an "Alumni committee" member now invites CR to his room. This has been the cause of depression and insecurity for the "Alumni committee" member since the priorities of "The retired hurt" boy has changed.
Dr. Love smiled when the Insight Prof called out the "light" boy and his "friend" on the stage
