Of Life and Love

Now I don’t want to launch into a personal tale of what kind of breakfast I like most and what could the B-school (XLRI) offer and what eating habits you should develop if you want to survive management education. These are all great topics in themselves and perhaps I will do justice to them some other day. But today’s agenda is simple: I’m going to talk about the one big change in winter lifestyle I have had to undergo due to my shifting quarters from a premier engineering institute to a top-notch B-school.
