Manasi -
She was born the year Calvin and Hobbes appeared. An artist, a dancer, a writer, erratically vacillating, diabetically sweet, an awesome friend and has this cool superpower to tell all about someone’s personality by checking out his or her handwriting only. She has an infectious smile and a certain Joie de vivre - and from what I know, she doesn’t have a genetically modified thorn-less rose type of life either! I think the ‘invisible hand’ forced her into being a software engineer – but the good news is that she’s fighting the neo-classical economics and trying to get out of this mess.

He can always be seen with a book in his hands, reading it with the intensity that makes you wonder, “What is he reading!” And sure enough, it is some book which you have never laid your eyes on, and you feel like an ignorant fool.
Extremely passionate about literature and philanthropy, I consider myself very lucky when I found him buried in his Oscar Wilde one day standing on the bus stop waiting for the bus which took us to our common hell – office. Pursuing MA in literature and being a hard code software engineer might seem to be conflicting in nature, but he carries it off with aplomb!
Here’s to our “esoteric” blog! Cheers!
