Random thoughts - Best Beginnings

While going through the daily motions today, I remembered two of my all-time favorite opening sequences:

Gandalf's Fall (at the beginning of the Two Towers)
and

Nightcrawler, taking out everyone (from X-Men 2)

I guess I like movies like that where I know the characters before hand and how bad-a** they are (and will be), and I don't get too disappointed (especially when there's a good director involved)!

What opening sequences dropped your jaw when you first saw it?

IGSA Diwali Show

Just came back from the IGSA Diwali show with my wife and thoroughly enjoyed it!

Pretty much everything was, as the emcee put it, "fantastic!"

Updates

Dear Blog,
I apologize for the neglect as of late.  After GMAT prep late last year, I was busy with B-School applications (Dec 2011 - March 2012), Coursera/Udacity courses (Nov 2011 - May 2012), Carnegie Mellon University's (CMU) Tepper School of Business admission process (April - July 2012), Basecamp (Aug 2012), Mini 1 (late Aug - Oct 2012), the Organizational Leadership Club (OLC) and the Carnegie Bosch Institute (CBI) Case Competition, the AT Kearney Case Competition, DDI Manager Ready Leadership Assessment, and the Business and Technology Club Trek to New York and Seattle (late Oct 2012).
The classes I've taken so far: Management Presentations, Financial and Managerial Accounting I, Probability and Statistics, Corporate Strategy, and Managerial Economics.
