    Great song choice!
    I grew up among bands like Eagles, Abba and the Bee Gees. Definitely appreciate my dad's taste in music.

    Yeah...I grew up with pretty much the same kind of music. Have always loved my dad's taste in music and owe a lot of my music collection to him.

The Kalyanmayee Project

1. What have you undertaken or done on your own in the last year or two that has nothing to do with academic work? (Northwestern) During the summer, I took on an internship with a paper recycling company called Kalyanmayee. The project is a women’s initiative run by the wives – or female employees – of AAI (Airport Authority of India) officials. When Terminal 3 was built, it displaced many people who lost their homes and means of living. This is when AAI decided to bring about Kalyanmayee and employed people from the displaced settlements. On interviewing the employees we found out that they were all from different backgrounds; some being sweepers, barbers, and cooks. They were all then trained in different fields of the factory with men abundantly working on the recycling process itself and the women on making products (like folders, coasters, cards, picture frames, diaries, carry bags, gift tags) out of the paper they recycled. Our role in the internship was to adv...

Camp Forktail Creek

174. If money and family obligations left you entirely free, how and where would you spend the summer before college? Ever since the first time I went to visit my father’s friends in Corbett, I have always loved the place. The friends spoken of own a camp called ‘Forktail Creek’ which is in the midst of the forest, now has four dogs on the campsite, and a beautiful bonfire. Every night, different people from different places in the world, staying there, sit around this bonfire having the oddest of conversations under the star-lit sky. The first time I went there, I was six, I was bald, and the only thing I paid attention to the entire week was the 2 dogs there at the time. The two beautiful Butiyas, the local mountain dogs. The previous time I went there, there were four grown dogs and 4 puppies at on camp. Though it was the first time I saw a tiger in the wild, I had 3 pictures of the tiger and 348 of the dogs on camp. That camp has always been a retreat for me. I als...

Stop.

10. Create a question we haven’t asked and then provide the answer. (Something to that effect anyway. Dartmouth used this a few years ago. I had a student who posed the following question and wrote a seven-page response: “Write about a time when life threw you a curve and how you handled it.” What do you think the world and its people need to do? I think the world needs to stop. Everything around us is moving so fast. “Look at us. Running around, always rushed, always late. I guess that’s why they call it the human race.” – From the movie The Switch. We’re so busy running around, working, playing, dancing, partying, studying or training that we don’t get the time to look at the world. We don’t get the time to appreciate what we have. We don’t get the time to understand what we are doing and let it sink in. Everything is so rushed. Everything is never-ending. The world needs to stop its waste production. The people in it need to stop reproducing. We need to stop...
