Ohkay, you can actually, ironically, they say that a noble profession like law should not be corrupted by advertisements.. *YEAH, I rolled my eyes too when I got to know the reason*, Law and noble, they don't really go hand in hand. But I feel that the real reason behind this is, so that the lawyers don't end up giving importance to advertising and forget that they really are to help people.

More so about the fact that my next employer is gonna be the Wall Street Journal ! Ohkay, not exactly WSJ, but one of their sister publications, the Mint newspaper. Well, there ain't much more from my side. But then, it's interesting to figure where life's taking me, every single year, every single moment!
