Mid Term Ends

This has been so far the coolest mid term at IIM Indore. 2 exams spread over a week..3 days to study Corp. Fin. Its a different issue that we study only on the last day. But when i compare this mid term with the term 1 mid terms, oh what a difference.. Slowly, slowly I think that i have started liking this place.

Dance of Democracy

Today I lost the consulting secy elections. Another good learning for me. It was a high stake game for me, but one thing i am sure of,there are some lessons which cannot be taught in classrooms. In the hindsight, what happens happens for the best..maybe something better is in store for me.

Change is good

Feels like i am back to my original self. Yesterday I participated in SIBM's event and qualified the first round where 200 teams battled it out and only 35 got through to the next stage. The second round is the creative round and now i have to think creatively. If there are no challenges then what's the purpose of living? Change is always good..

Cricket days are back

As the IPL(Indore Premier League) approaches the finals, the heat has turned to a high level. It was supposed to be a game that fosters cooperation between the various sections as each section had to keep at least two foreign players (players from other sections). To some extent it did achieve its goals, but i still believe that the section rivalries are very much there and will continue that way. Heres the good part, the IPL has given a good entertainment be it in the form of the bidding process, the match controversies, team selection issues and what not. The placement week holidays would have been monotonous without the IPL. On the entertainment front, IPL has been a grand success at Planet I. In fact this week even i shed my coaching gears and came down to play in the home ground of my section a.k.a I Block. I bowled after some 6-7 years and i must say that the bowling was not that bad. Thats the beauty of any sports. Even if you quit it comes back to you within a few days once ...
