making me feel numb...

Term 8 started…and with it the last leg of this year…

Had the fortune of catching up with my ex-boss at ISB yesterday (Tuls, Ki, Su…if you are reading this…I am talking about Viji!). It was amazing to go back to the time when she was trying to convince me that I needed another year of work before I could think of an MBA. And how I though otherwise…at times without any sound logic backing up the argument.

Needless to say…she was thrilled to hear about ATK and where I shall be headed with it. it was funny though how she went… “I always knew you could achieve this…that’s why I supported you in your decision…” :)

Over the past year…there are a lot of lessons I have learnt. Most of which have not come through the courses…or texts…! My version of some of them…

· 1st day of Term 1: “Holy shit…I have got the worst study group in the world…I mean…wtf…this is worse luck than a blind guy stepping on cow shit…!”
Last day of Term 4: “Holy shit…what will I do without you guys…I mean…shit…this sucks…can we please form groups in the electives…can I come over to sleep on your sofa…shit man…this sucks…sucks…sucks…sucks…sucks…”

· Breakup of your grade:
o Hard work: 20%
o The people you hang out with and their grades: 20%
o Your study group: 20%
o The course TA: 30%-40%
o Miscellaneous: 10%

· At the end of the year:
o Non IT Guy: I know IT…what do you know…???
o IT Guy: I know IT…and finance…and marketing…and operations…and HR…and entrepreneurship…and I am applying to all these jobs…! HAH…!

Damn…!!!

Has you ever lost your train of thought while blogging because of some jackass call…!! Well…it happened right now…! So will continue with this series…

Also have to post my interview experience and learnings…shall do that as well…soon…!

Listening to Tanha Dil…! This song never stops making me feel numb…love it…
