Finally my passport got stamped!!

After much ho hungama i finally got a green signal for my Zurich assignment. After one full week of packing-shacking, finally i was at the Bengaluru International Airport. When i reached the airport i learned that the Air France flight to Paris was delayed by 25 minutes. Shurwaat hi khaarab hui. Later in the flight i was a bit disappointed to see that none of the airhostess were 'hot'. If not the flights, Mr. Mallya should definitely take over the cabin crew of all the international flights (nothing matches the quality and taste of Mr. Mallya).Anyways, after listening to some music i decided to take a nap, but the seat was not very comfortable and i could hardly sleep.

" Life's a box of chocolates, Forrest. You never know what you're gonna get!!" Forrest Gump is one of my favorite movies. Perhaps because I was as (maybe I still am) "stupid" as Forrest is.

But what I believe is that one should take what life has to offer, swim with the tide, sail along and enjoy the journey because when you reach th...

Caution: Readers' discretion is advised. The views expressed here are completely personal and the point of view expressed here will vary from individual to individual in the same batch. I am not responsible for any fall out arising out of your reading this post on this blog. Someone asked me on my views on whether a new student should join IIM Indore given the batch size. Well, I will try to cover certain aspects that will throw some light for future applicants. Having spent two years here and more so because I am part of the first graduating batch of size 450, I have developed an understanding of things that work and that do not work at Planet-I. I believe that these views are more pertinent for people with 3 or more than 3 years of work exp but nonetheless these views are universal as well. Although, I believe that freshers have very little at stake in studying at an IIM, be it L,I K ,S or any of the new IIMs. As far as the size of the batch is concerned, yes 450 is a huge...
