reco letter for lavi

As the HOD for Architecture, I have observed Pallavi through her tenure, and she has all through been a student that we are proud of.
In these five years I have had numerous opportunities to interact with her one on one, for not just the academic instances, but on the other activities that she has been involved with, from dealing with design competitions on a national scale, to organizing and taking an active part in cultural performances, among others.
Considering the aptitude and dedication that she has for all the tasks that she takes up, it's not a surprise that she has always been among the topmost students, with an aggregate of XYZ and a GPA of XYZ..... Apart from the statistics, there is also the fact that with her commendable design skills and the ability to translate them; her work has always been practical and unique.
She has both the sensitivity and the capacity to deal with multi-layered issues, and has impeccably dealt with all the architectural, structural, economic and social layers on the final thesis project, which is a live project with the Government, and has also been presented to the UNDP. As a student of design, Pallavi has excelled in all the aspects especially because of her approach and perspective.

With her strong people skills she has been a natural leader, and has balanced her academics with all the other activities very well, being a success at everything she takes up.
More than anything else, the maturity and integrity she has displayed throughout, along with the zeal to learn and share makes her an asset to the institution and I'm glad to recommend a student of her caliber and dedication, to your esteemed institution.

long delayed!

always assumed that i had made this one, but it dawned on me today that i though there was another id with the same name, i somehow never brought the banner here!
anyway, now that it is here in all its glorious and very real chatta-ness, am at a lack of things to post..
what would be apt enough to sit on this page, of course anything that i write, sits on it's own throne or high chair as per individual perception, but what is going to be the balancing act, on the see saw of my private stories and theorized repeats of the same, that would be public enough to share..
well there is still a while before i stop oscillating, for now, there is this perception that i needed to put out before it dissolves into the nothingness of my head,
and as usual, it is again to do with me, the eternal self love always wins!
ok enough of 'build up' , and to the point..
just like, though am always reasoning that it's better to be prepared for the worst and am always pessimistic about the results for mua case, simultaneously never actually letting go of the hope of news that will bring good...similarly, never do i actually get rid of the birdie that causes me so much agony and sometimes bitterness, but once bitten never shy is what this birdie does to me, and so what i figured out from all the above chatta is that although, i have gotten rid of the expecting part of the attachment clause, i still do expect them to demand so that i can give and then have the link unbroken, and therefore am still attached!!
but yet this gives me that certain edge that precisely the knife stands on, because i can still not expect in the straight sense, and thus let go of that..but i still can miss all that i want, wait all that i want for all those i want, and thus still be attached in the ghumake-firake sense!
well the geometry is confusing, but anyway, the point is, that all this led me to one nice self flattering funda..
i am an optimist who believes in the fayada that pessimism brings and thus all the silence in me can just turn into ripples and then noise at the tiniest wisp of breath, be it mine or anyone elses...
aaaaah, now who that anyone else could be, who could probably qualify for that title..
long story!
my coffee awaits and have a long day ahead...lots of shopping and masti, and a little bit of work as well...wow, am already raring to go! the sense and tingling of anticipation is swirling with the coffee!
chalo then,
just hope that i do half the things that am cojuring up in the air!
wakkay..
namaste!
GOOD MORNING!!!!!!!!
