In the sixth and final term, supposedly the most chillax term of all, I bid for the bare minimum number of courses needed to satisfy my credit requirements, which turned out to be a soothing Four in number! No tough courses; courses thoroughly planned and selected after by-hearting the time table (:p) so that there are no classes for me on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays giving me an off of four days every week for the next two months. But when I went to the case unit to collect my study materials, what awaited me was an awful collection of 18 books and 6 case mats! 15 of the books belonging to a course I have taken called LVMR (Leadership: Vision, Meaning and Reality). The interesting thing about these books is that they are not the usual ones containing theories and jargons of management but are stories, novels, philosophical and similar interesting stuffs. Above all I hope it will take me back to my reading habits which was long lost when I started my post graduation. And that is when I realized that I haven’t read more than 5 normal books in the last two years! (:-()

JUST 2 books!! u've to be here then :-) happy reading to u too..
I'm trying to get bck my reading habit too. I have lost it purely outta laziness!
In my post grad days likewise - it was virtually impossible - at least for me to read "normal" books - so thts understandable. 4 days off - every week should help your cause this time...
Enjoy the books.
same with me ...even iv lost my reading habit....now if i sit with my book for just one hour i feel that iv done something big.....
have to still get my PG seat.......i better get back to the reading path soon!
(but now iam thinking if i read so much at this time....what if my baby starts reading books from the cadle itself.....what if he become bookworm type!!....i would never want that!!!!...hehe!!)
I had lost my reading habits too, I would come from work, and sit in front of TV lika dumbo. But eversice I've come back from my vacation, I've rarely switched on mytv, and instead of tv, I'm reading books, career enhamcing stuff etc.
btw, what books have u plan to read?
enikku pass ayal mathi:(((((
is it too much to ask!!!
@kickasso:lol That comment was profound :))
@Jithu:People! fellow bloggers!!!!Lets roll out the red carpet for the corporate honcho who will soon blaze the corporate world like a managerial meteor!!! Books can wait :)
p.s. Why is it that you don't have word verification and still get no spam???? I need to post replies to comments on my own blog after 3 or 4 attempts at word verification. Not fair !!!!!!!! :(
have fun reading,man...
> aria
laziness, partly my reason too :-) thnx yaar.. lemme see what i can do with this 4 days/week.
> af

> venus
hey thts good. seems u've gotten back ur reading habbits. these are some small books like things fall apart, king henry 5, art of war, the prince, tughlaq etc. etc. the pedagogy says each of these books gives a glimpse of leadership in their protagonists..
