What the ....?

Ok, so I've been posting a lot of Restaurant Reviews. WTF must surely be the expression on your mind, as this blog has thus shifted focus from... well nothingness to food.

To be fair a lot has been happening, but mostly personal stuff. Which I try to avoid blogging about - I would like my blog to be a reflection of my views and opinions and not the actual events in my life. However, some might argue that the latter would be more interesting, but that could just mean that my views are that uninteresting. And the only other topic of note would be applications for an MBA next year. If anyone would like to volunteer to either be a referee or a reviewer of application essays please say so now.

Anyway, let the gluttony continue...

Last Entrance Exam?

After a long and tiresome three weeks of preparation for the GMAT (in addition the occasional tutorial class - which was a complete waste of money), I finally sat the exam yesterday. And I'm just glad I did well - a 730 on 800 (average for Harvard I believe is a 710). Of course this is an unofficial score, but I get my confirmed results in two weeks.

So it's weird, instead of the joy and relief one should normally feel, right now I'm just a bit apprehensive. About the future - which colleges to apply to, where I will be next year, etc. But the most prominent feeling is that of nostalgia - having to go through applications, deadlines, recommendations, interviews, etc.

Ah, to be young and dumb again.

Death Cab for Cutie: Passenger Seat

Love the song - couldn't even concentrate on the video.

Passenger Seat

I roll the window down
And then begin to breathe in
The darkest country road
And the strong scent of evergreen
From the passenger seat as you are driving me home.

Then looking upwards
I strain my eyes and try
To tell the difference between shooting stars and satellites
From the passenger seat as you are driving me home.

"do they collide?"
I ask and you smile.
With my feet on the dash
The world doesn't matter.

When you feel embarrassed then i'll be your pride
When you need directions then i'll be the guide
For all time.
For all time.
