Long time no post..

k.. its almost been a month since I last wrote something.. n lots have happened this month.. we r done wid r 1st term here.. had been to bombay after that.. now im back.. n the tasks in hand ve almost doubled.. mid terms approachin in a coupla weeks time.. n summer placements immediately after that.. k. lets take up each one by one..

firstly.. 1st term over.. so Im 1/6 of an MBA.. n since there is so much obsession with Stats here and the need to get answers correct till the 4th decimal place.. I shud rather say that Im 0.1667 of an MBA now... n wud u believe it.. in like. 3 weeks time i wud be 1/4th.. oh sorry.. 0.2500 of an MBA!! time flies here.. that too at v=C!! ;)

then..Good ol' Bombay.. caught up wid friends.. all ve kinda moved on... but good to see that nothin has changed much... the same old conversations.. the same old hangouts.. ate a lot.. Maa ke haath ka bana khana..good ol idli.. sambhar.. dosa.. payasam.. Mom tried her best to make for all the weight Ive lost in the last 3 months! n did a bit of shoppin for diwali n bday.. this time Dad did all the shoppin for me.. felt like a "bacha" again..

..back in campus.. into more serious things.. have attended like a 100 PPTs(Pre Placement Talks ie:)).. got into thinkin mould.. an MBA opens a whole lot of oppurtunities for u.. I m in a fix.. shud it be Fin... Consults or Marketing!! its a gr8 dilemma to have.. in Consults.. the jobs look very interesting.. the only glitch is that u never settle at one place.. it is one job where the amt of travel is proportional to ur age.. I-Banks seem good too.. but again.. the lifestyle is too TOO hectic!! an Analyst's job is like 24*7*365 ..but the money is also crazy!! ppl retire at 35 it seems!! n finally Mkting.. the kinda firms that comin r the best.. n wud u believe it they only get a late slot 1 or slot 2!! selling soaps in rural Bihar does excite me.. but guess. its better said than done.. (or was it something else??)

n finally.. did something ive longed to do since I was in the 8th std.. or was it 6th!!! Playin cricket wid the leather ball. The pads.. the helmets.. the gloves.. have always been a thrill. had been for the cricket team selections for the XL meet.. figured out that im not bad et all!! even gotta compliment frm the captain. Lets see how it works out. As they ve always said.. theres nothin better than the real thing!!
