Keying this from IIMA’s dorm20 :D ……..two days @ IIMA talking to n number of people has certainly opened by thought process…Made me realize quite a few things…Infact, quite more than a few things ;) the generic b-school farting that takes place at other schools takes place here also…Just that it has now morphed into a semi-respectable term called “global gyaan”…And No, this place isn’t as bad as ppl make it out to be..As in some ppl still do have a life here, and they do enjoy it…Like suhas put it so very succintly, the level of life u enjoy is directly proportional to the kinda grades that you would be satisfied with ;)
The fun of interacting with PGites here is again simply amazing. I still cant understand what is it about the forums that people whom u’ve hardly interacted with even on the forums, forget physically, can strike a chord within minutes once they know you are also from the forum….Met quite a few so far and am looking forward to meeting the resta junta today and tmrw….Much has been written of the architectural “marvel” that the IIMA structure is….Personally, me thinks it very badly needs a dash of color and some upkeep….the canteen, at certain corners, can surely make one puke, i.e. if the food already has not had that effect on you ;) …But for these IIMAites, it doesn’t really matter….they hardly get the time for observing the world they are in…….. :)

Off to IIMA’s Confluence in a coupla hours :) Lookin forward to meeting those bright minds that have made it through what is, arguably, the world’s toughest bschool to get into….Also am looking forward to see how avenues can be created for B-schools to actually reach out to prospective students.. Hopefully can give the PaGaLGuY.com junta a peek into the Biggest management meet in this part of the world…and Yea, hope to spread the Community Service fever thats hit most guys down here in Hyderabad :) Ahoy IIMA, Here comes PaGaLGuY.com :D :D

ps: just couldn’t resist from pointing this url ;)

With nothin much to do save trying hard to prepare for the two papers that I have today, thought I’d like to see if there’s still any junta out there without a Gmail account….Just leave a comment with ur email id in case you interested in one…. And thou shalt get a Gmail account :D

Yep……’tis eggJAM time again….that time of my life when i recall all that i had sworn to the last time i crossed my path with one….that time when i need the silliest of excuses to get away from the books, i.e. if i manage to sit near one in the first place ;) that time when i realize i haven’t mailed this ‘ol friend in ages and key in a huge mail, only to find it bounce back….that time when ppl around me get the kinda jitters abt me that i start getting jittery of them…. that time when i find these unmissable discussions on /. or PG ……that time when i indulge in all such inanities as blogging…….strange indeed are the ways of nature and stranger are those of mankind ;) ;)
