Resident what?

Today was my first RALC session. To the uninformed, to those too old to remember such futile details, and to those who remember branding it as a " duuude, why do you go there?" event in college between the frequent frat events ;) , this is the Residential Assistant Learning Colloquium, place where future leaders a.k.a people who want to live in the dorms for free are trained. All jokes apart, the job of an RA is a lot of responsibility ( looking at my previous RA) and probably to a certain extent fulfilling in its own way. You get to stay in touch with the freshman, otherwise an impossible feat, and learn quite a few tricks in the trade of managing a large group of crazy college freshmen. :) To sum up, its time Donald Trump includes being an RA for a day as one of the tasks in "Apprentice". Magna Corporation and Net Worth will have no idea what hit them.:)

Reprimanded

I think I have successfully stirred a hornet's nest, thanks to my previous blog. In my last blog I chanced to comment on my barber, and for some reason the entire situation snow-balled with every other "conscientious" reader having something to remark about. It seems rather unnatural to me how much people can extrapolate from a simple paragraph. Perhaps I couldn't frame the sentences properly; probably I should remove the blog. Atleast that will save me from replying to completely inane comments. But then will that mean I accept it was wrong on my part to write that?

The entire point of having a blog is to engage in meaningful conversation, rather than dissing each other. Hopefully by removing it I will be able to infuse a little more meaning to this blog. Hopefully my previous "readers" will realize I hold nothing against them.
