A Story to tell... :)

I really wonder how to describe the situation am in... A time when am obviously supposed to be free, I've managed to keep myself occupied to make sure that I don't miss my under graduation days at college and a lot more... I realized that it had been a long while since I'd got off my blogging spree and I intend to change that. After all, what good is a man if he is incapable of managing his very own time?
Every day begins and ends with share of surprises and the day before yesterday was one such day with a different pattern. I got myself to be the events coordinator of "Wordsworth International Spelling Bee - National level Finals". To coordinate events in a totally new environment for a very diverse class of students ranging from grade 3 to 12 was an experience worth the time spent. As this busy day mellowed out with a satisfaction of a job well done, it was time for me to be a part of the Chennai road traffic. Awesome sight with lights close to each other all over the roads, everything bright and beautiful yet so silent. All this beauty and splendor for one to enjoy is all there, only from a bird's eye view. As we move closer things become clear with dust, sharper with horns so profound that their tiding decibel levels are a musical treat to the Deaf. With every ticking minute the vehicles move from start to start to start. They are very much there in the same place where they were minutes before. With no space to walk and a long way to go, I sat in the car amidst the tiring city traffic. Laughter... oh, I almost forgot to mention. It was the driver who sat behind the wheels and the only thing that bothered me was the time that was being wasted on the journey back home after a long day. Traffic has been this way for a very long time and by now I'm very much used to it ;). In company of various franchise partners & directors the journey back home was full of laughter over various issues and impromptu cracks. Although i had planned to blog about the day that night, as I reached home an interesting article in McKinsey Quarterly caught my attention. I'll be blogging about this article tomorrow. And after that article, it was a good a good nights' rest and the rest is assured to be the same for a good few hours... :)

The day's Toast ;) Feeling tired... Take a dark bite!

It sure has been a long time since my last post... With lots of interesting things happening and lots to share, I confine myself to one post. Time sure is on a very high demand, and I'm on a spree to chase it down. A tiresome job rite ;) ?...
Well, here is an interesting piece of information that I brushed past.

It's dark, delicious and definitely health...
And now, their makers sure seem to have become a happier bunch, with have another feather to play their market.
It's the "DARK CHOCOLATE"

Researchers have it as follows...
"Dark Chocolate fights Fatigue."
To be precise, a daily dose of dark chocolate may help patients suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).
It has been found that dark chocolates lower the level of serotonin when consumed.
Serotonin is believed to play a major role in the regulation of one anger, aggression, mood, sleep, body temperature and appetite.
A cautionary note-
Anything over your bin could leave with a dirty spin. Like the famous saying goes, too much of anything is good for nothing... Dark chocolates are no exceptions.
Over consumption could lead to over stimulation of the nervous system.
Consuming two cubes is good enough to get one a fresh start.
For all those who count the calories with a menu card by their side, here is an excuse to dare a bite ;)
And for the rest... enjoy your day :)
