I visit my home town very often. Usually during the long weekends, I am there. The last weekend I called on my uncle's home. A home usually bustling with playful kids(My cousins) was very quiet that day because of the exam season.
I, having majored in science, was soon given a job to teach my 10 year old cousin, a science chapter "Metals". Having explained all about what metals are, what non-metals are and their respective use for the mankind as heat/electricity conductors, insulators etc etc, I decided to quiz her.
After a few questions, which she answered correctly, .......
Me: You're doing great! This's the last question on this chapter and we'd be done with your studies for tomorrow's paper. Here's the question
Pick the odd man out: Gold, Silver, Cloth
She: Its the cloth
Me: Why?
She: Oh! But you can't make ear-rings and necklaces out of cloth. You only need gold and silver for that.
A woman in making? you bait!!

you looking at applying to INSEAD too?
Hi Small,
It is a very long term goal for me! I would apply for their 2011 intake. I am now 25 and want to save atleast 28L INR before I apply. INSEAD's not the only insti I am looking at, but it surely is one of my favourites.
hey! I'm the same age and that's not stopping me! :-)
but it's nice that you've planned ahead. I've just begun and it's a real nightmare!
regd the fee- that's what the scholarships and loans are for!
Btw- I think we're in the same city.
Well, I had few responsibilities I couldn't run away from. I think getting a schol there's kinda tough. You can try loans but that too comes with a upper-cap. Check out the INSEAD fees at http://www.insead.edu/mba/financing/financing_fees.cfm
Guess you've already read inseadapp.blogspot.com that guy's also worried abt finances, isn't he? It's not easy, atleast for me :-)
Yaar kutch tho dhang ka likho...expecting much better as you are capable of.
