March Miscellaneous

Oh my God!

It's been almost a month since I have blogged. I have been insanely busy with work and sleep was the only vice (aside from an occasional round of rum and coke) I could ever wish for. The good news is that I have finished at least half of the tasks; the bad news is that, another half ton of work fills it up. Life in fast laned Manipur...

I am asking permission from a friend (a photographer) to allow me to use some of his pics (which he took of me) for this blog.... no repsonse yet.. But this pics are amazing! He knows I love black and white pics and he is a master of his trade, definitely! So until then, I'll let you all salivate on the thought of his art.

Officially, I have extended my agreement for a few months more. That makes me leave India on July 10, then proceed to Amsterdam for de-briefing and then, hopefully to Hong Kong for another de-briefing. By the time this finishes, I have to buy a new set of underwear. Too much de-briefing makes my Jack a cold boy!

I am very interested to volunteer to the MSF acrivities currently being done in Mindanao. Recently, the insurgency activities have gone sky high - topping with the kidnapping of three ICRC personnel. I have read reports that there are so many IDPs (internally displaced people) scattered in various areas of Mindanao.... Sad that something like this is happening in our own backyard...

Well... that's it for now.. I am going back to my nap and to nurse this nagging hang over!
