wanna be back...

which is what is the good part about consulting...

my 1st project...absolute quant based. heavy modelling...excel files running into 120 spreadsheets and 28MB..! 5 nights spent at office beyond midnight...just missing the morning sun...! (ok exxagerated...but then u get the point!)...a requirement of 24/7 eyes open view...on numbers...where they come from...where they go..and what they do to the results.

my 2nd project...(and ISB's fav word)...'strategy'. getting free from office (actually...to be precise...literally being thrown away from office) at 6.30 everyday so far...! but a lot of thought...a lot of qualitative analysis. underatanding the market...and providing solutions.

stark contrast...!

but great fun..nevertheless....

this weekend was the delhi meet for 2006 batch. was awesome fun. some 30 odd people turned up...and lasted till midnight. the venue was laid back waters at the Qutub hotel. sweet place...! and we got a separate corner for ourselves..! was really nice to meet up with everyone...catch up on lives...where people talk about their work...and the lack of it...!

might get a chance to go to hyd...for a client meeting. which would mean spending the night at ISB..for sure..! was reading S's blog and the entry jst made my heart go 'pain'...! would love to spend time...jst the way it used to be...jst a few months back...! sleeping on the LRC couch during the exam prep time...! the chit chat...rarely stepping upwards of an 23 IQ level...post dinner...! the 'warikooooo' shout...right outside my window...! E's room/junkyard/rubbish can/bacteria incubator/awesomest hangout place at ISB...! G's 'ohh u shut up'...and S's 'thats an ugly fat ass potato'...!

godd...its work...and i am wasting client money on isb sob stories...!

wanna be back...wanna be back...
