That Is Totally Sweet
Eleven days into being a student again, and I've finally got some breathing space to get back to my bleg. Ironically, it happens to be in class, and not in the confines of my cozy quad. As someone pointed out, life on campus is like an expensive holiday so far, with everyone hitting the gym, indulging in all-night Bacchanalian orgies, [...]
Welcome!!!
Welcome to the all new Hari Shenoy dot com. What you see right now is the end result of something that happened circa January 2007, when my ex-flatmate Sankar (a formerly regular reader of all the nonsense I used to spew, but now ruined by a punishing B school schedule) got me an advance birthday present in the form of my own domain name. Not [...]
About Me
Update 19th May 2011: I'm still unsure of how to go work on this "about me" section, though what I do know is that I like writing more than I ever thought I could and also because it makes me happy. End of Update When I had initially thought of putting this post up, I was brimming with ideas and with all sorts of content that this post [...]

Introducing The ‘Cook Buddy’ Concept

Of course, there's this other matter of how most food-eating contests are biased against people who eat slowly and are invariably centered around who consumes the most food in a stipulated [...]
Schadenfraude towards Rule-Breakers
While it is ingrained within our moral fibre to play the role of the good samaritan in case one notices people in distress, especially when they have been part of a grevious accident and require emergency medical treatment, I am facing a serious moral dilemma with regard to how one should approach the situation when rule-breakers are subject to [...]
Dirty Linen Washing
With reference to the below post on Independence Rock, which is seeing its 23rd year is something else that has had people watch with mouths agape. Things like these usually happen only on reality TV shows, with an element of stage-managing, but in this case people are washing their dirty linen in public and making a big deal about it, while the [...]
Avial at Independence Rock
Avial is a band whose music I have recently fallen in love with, despite not understanding their lyrics. I wish I knew enough Malayalam to comprehend what Anand Raj Benjamin Paul is singing, but regretfully, I have to be content with listening to his amazing voice belt out songs such as 'Nada Nada', 'Karakura' and 'Njaan Aara' (which I know means [...]
