:: Blood Donation ::

hi friendzz . . . Well ... I finally managed to do it .... Yesterday I donated Blood .... for the first time in my life ..... There was a Blood Donation drive conducted by the Rotaract Club of NITIE and I was the third person in the early morning to do it. There have been occasions in rthe past when i got a chance to do this noble activity but missed every time. This time I had decided ... come what may ... I would definately do it ... And I did. October 27th, 2004 .... goes down in History (my personal history i mean ...) as the day when shoOOonya first donated blood. (Fortunately I have not yet seen the day when I received blood). Frankly it was a very nice experience. to donate blood adn to know that someday this same blood would be instrumental in saving someone's life .... Even you should do it ..... Facts About Blood and Blood Donation • Just one person’s donated blood can help save as many as three people’s lives. • The ave...

Arbit Developments !!

hi friendzz ... In my last two post I had talked about how the character sketch of Arbit was developed .... Let me take the discussion further ... the most crucial part ... developing the comic strips ... Mission Impossible II: Comic Character to Comic Strip First Things First : Idea Generation a). Think of original ideas. Days and Nights were spent pondering over humour in common B-school situations, application of management funda in real life and so on. b). Take ideas from the environments. Ideas were taken from friends and classmates. c). Test ideas on Humour scale. Ideas were presented to a test audience, for their feedback. Ratings were taken and finally all ides were ranked. The Making of the Comic Strip – The Art Work – The Hard Work a). Visualize the setting. Common B-school environs were visualized.. canteen, library, class, stairs and so on. b). Draw draft with pencil. (This req'd loads of talent . . . . ) c). Refine Draft. The dr...

Arbit Choudhury ki kahaani ...

Hi friendzz …. In my last blog I had promised to write about the ups and downs of my roller coaster life in the past few weeks. While in hibernation; I am also trying to gather those happy memories of the past weeks which helped me survive. So, let me write something on the brighter side of the life. Somewhere in my previous posts I have mentioned something about creating India’s First Ever B School Comic Character. This character was created specifically for MastishK and it will continue to be an integral part of MastishK as its Mascot for years to come. Let me narrate to you the whole process of conceptualization and development of India’s First Ever B School Comic Character and then the regular hard work put into creating the individual comic strips. This endeavor has been a very satisfying experience for me. Arbit is like a baby whom we nurtured from conception to birth and now … its growing. Vision / Mission: To create India’s First ever B-school comic Character. ...

Hibernation . . .

hi friendzz . . . I am planning to go into hibernation for the next few days ... i am emotionaly not ready for anything new at this prsent moment. Too many conflicts around me ... inside me .... I want to simply REST for some time to let things stablize in my mind. I have to get some things straight in my mind. Right now, I feel lonely ! Absolutely lonely with no one around. i know some people who love me and care for me will not like this statement because they are there for me. But somehow, right now I am all alone. The feeling I have is that I am not required. Thats one reason I am withdrawing from things and people. And my last hope of being wrong was that if i am missing and people do miss me, they will either call or inquire about me and my absence. Well ... have not received any ... I guess no one is missing me or people are simply relieved that I am no longer there to interfere in their work. They no longer have to bear me. What a relief. If that is true; i...

Long Time ... No See . . .

hi friendzz ... Its been a long long time since I posted somethig on this blog. The last post dates back to 16th September; a few days before our Module 5 Exams. Our exams spanned from 20th to 27th. Before the exams got over; MastishK site was re-launched with the description of the games on 24th itself. In the middle of the exams; I found myself working on MastishK. After the last paper on 27th; the day when the site exploded completely adn the Event began as all the games were thrown open; i got completely immersed in MastishK. That was the reason; i did not get time to look at my blog. The event will get over on 11th/12th and then results will be announced. The whole thing will be wrapped up by 15th and then Prerana will happen in NITIE campus. This year student participation will be high and a lot of fun and game too. Coming back to myself .... in the past one month ... life has been a roller coaster ride ! On this day ... at this moment ... I am not Happy !! ...
