There is so much to write that I feel neurotic at times about what to write and what not. I do not want this blog to become my chronology of life. Rather I wish to write some intellectually stimulating matter here. But I think a general diary note is a good beginning for a neurotic situation.
A week has passed in Dubai campus. I have engaged myself in numerous activities like counseling students, fitness regime, preparing my material and guiding students. It's all fun till now. I ventured out of campus to Mirdiff City center and recently was invited to an investment bankers party at a friend's place. Later the next day I went to Dubai Mall and saw the huge aquarium and Fountain show at Burj Khalifa. We also had Arabic dinner of Latef, Hummus, and khaboos.
The most striking thing about Dubai was the richness and opulence of people. The grandness in every scheme of things, details in the design, architecture, and orderliness are tough to miss or ignore. I asked my friend what is the one thing he would like to borrow to India? His answer was simple: Fear for the law. Fear of the sovereign.
Anyway, a lot of thoughts but all lying in the scattered fashion. I need to work on this. Will write more regularly in coming days.
