It’s the time of the year when us seniors start counting down the days to our graduation, and slowly start finding a starting point in the professional world, also known as the job market. With the economy in the US being battered from all around, its wise to say that many to-be-graduates are actually considering a post-grad than a job right now. Well, I hate to digress, but this post is more about my trip to Sno Mountain this week with my fellow seniors, and the upcoming spring break rather than sulking on the future!
Sno Mountain is an absolutely awesome place if you’re a ski lover! For us ski illiterates, they had Snow Tubing, which as you might have guessed, is what we did on Thursday evening. Just one word to describe the experience: Exhilarating ! Here are a few pictures from the trip.

If you ever get the chance to do this, I would say go for it! In India, you can do this in Manali. I did it in 2004 in a huge inflated Truck tyre tube, and it was not even half the fun we had on this slope! Its a perfect example of commercializing a simple activity and enhancing it to provide maximum excitement and entertainment.
The best part was that the Alumni association had organized free drinks and food after our 3hour run on the slopes! We topped the day off gorging some chilled beer and Chicken wings with Nachos on the side. What more can you ask now
Spring Break
Spring break starts from the 28th, and its a whole week long of relaxation and finishing all the pending work from the past 2 months! I sure have got loads piled up! Will be preparing for my GRE exam in march, as well as testing out my prototype and building some more essential features for it in the next 10 days. As they say it, Time is money, and this Spring break should be worth a lot if used judiciously! Obviously, you just can’t sit at home all day and slog out, so hitting the clubs and bars and chilling out on some yummy Indian food is also on the list of things to do next week
