The past few weeks have been pretty intense - loads of school work, tons of club commitments and lots of time spent reflecting on summer internships and future career prospects. After hearing that load of nonsense, you should understand why I need to get away from the b-school bubble and act like a fool more often. 
Diversion #1 ::: Section Flip Cup Championships - Despite some serious shit talking and intimidation tactics, we came up a bit short. And by a bit, I mean a lot. We lost in the third round after getting a buy in the first! However, in true Big Dog fashion, we proceeded to play another six sets of matches just for good measure. Let's just say by the end of the night I had cups on my ears and had to pull a "look over there" to the ladies pictured above, as I ran out the door for my bed.
Diversion #2 ::: Bollywood Bash - In honor of all my South Asian peeps back in NYC, I decided to step up and put my skills to work in the India Business Club's Annual Bollywood Bash. For two weeks leading up to the event, I practiced night and day (well, not really) honing my Garba / Raas moves and providing comic relief for the other members of the dance squad. When the big night finally came, I gave a Kirk Gibson-esque performance by overcoming a serious injury I sustained in the flag football playoffs the week before (read: i'm old and bruise easily). Immediately following the show, I was wisked off stage and asked to co-star alongside Shahrukh Khan in the next Bollywood blockbuster. Actually, after the show, I stuffed my face full of samosas and naan and proceded to sweat off 5 lbs dancing to bhangra the rest of the night. 
Diversion #3 ::: Reaching Out Conference - After making it through an interview, a case competition and a career expo, I was ready to have some fun. Yeah, there were some panel discussions and a few minutes spent networking... but mostly, this was about hanging with my peeps including Jizza, who was in town from LA. Just our luck - DJ Abel of Alegria fame was in town for one night only! Unfortunately most of the pictures from the hours spent on the dancefloor are not fit for print so I decided to include the one of my ghost jumping around the hotel somewhere around 4:30-5am. All this, while the entire room was being rearranged by my new buddy, Beau... and here I just wanted to "break bread!" BAG.That's about it for now... I really need to pack since I'm off to NYC tomorrow. I'm so excited to see everyone and roam the streets all weekend! After that, its back for finals and then a trip to Steamboat Springs, Colorado for a week of skiing!
