I'm back. Back after a long time - I should say. And in the meantime, life hasn't exactly been a roll...Though one of the pluses I can derive from this break is that my blogging loyalties were pledged elsewhere - click here to see that. And all for a free T-shirt and some very informative and entertaining events at the B-school to be!
So what's new?
Term -I at IIM Bangalore came to a rollicking finish - perhaps what was most intriguing was the intensity of emotion while bidding our friends adieu for a miserly one week vacation home. Speaks volumes about the kind of bonding that the pressure and work here can create. Term - I results? Don't even think about it - don't know, can't say - think of it as the proverbial phi in the Karnaugh map.
Term-II at IIM Bangalore began with a bang, with the enthusiasm for summers preparation overflowing. All you here these days is "Yaar, consults ki prep kase karoon", "Chal be case karte hain", "Acads ko maaro goli, summers aur ppo maaro, phir aish karte hain", and many more similar dialogues that would have put Jai-Veeru to shame. Needless to say, similar taunts populate the information highway on the intra chatting client.
Of course -there's been the intermediate relief - the relieving sunshine that peeks through the clouds to smile and ask you to make hay before it rains again. Foundation day happened and was a lot of fun - with the entire music band performing impromptu - and doing a good job too. Vista, needless to say, was its usual self with tremendous footfalls and amazing talent on campus.
But back to the summer of '07, and we realize how much we've changed over the past few days. Most of us have doubled up our typing skills writing about ourselves and editing our resumes. It's been amazing the way we've learned to check out a company, see its values and traditions and do a research on it in five minutes flat. With the horde of resume submissions to do, and company presentations to attend, it would be a lie to say that life is relaxed. But it's been memorable.
So long, see ya.
PS: Incidentally, some people were curious about "that Ecstasy thingy" - :P so here are the links of the youtube videos of our music band playing for those who're interested.
