There will be blood folks! I am taking this blog to the next level by writing more and changing the setup a little more. For that I am taking a look at what is to be added and what not. The current shoutbox became a little too spammy. So here is the new shout gadget from Google along with Friend Connect. Join the network using your Google account. I guess everyone should have one as its sort of like passport now! You can also comment anonymously if you want to troll and make my life miserable! Yeah, I can be a masochist at times! Thoughts behind this change? I had a brainwave that I need to write more! Now that I have Internet at home (although the system is down with a viral infection!) and lot of experiences worth writing, it will be criminal not to. So here you go, this will be change you can believe in!
Found this is Friday Five and liked it. 1. If you were to have a scholarship created in your honor, what qualities would you look for in applicants (leadership, service, GPA, etc.)? GPA is bullshit. People with high GPA can be both muggers and geniuses. There can be people with no real "definitive talent" having a high GPA. Also, some can be flatout arses with no regard for the society. I would never create a scholarship in terms of GPA. Service is paramount. IQ and EQ both are equally important. Abstract thought counts. Creativity would be a defining factor. Enthusiasm is a must. There will be personal interviews. 2. Who would be eligible to apply for your scholarship (members of a certain major, ethnic group, sexuality, etc.)? No discrimination except there would be a weightage given to economically disadvantaged. Their need would be greater than that of a well to do kid. 3. Would it be need-based or not? Why? Need-based is contentious. Whose need? Some may need the money ...
then..y wait..
