Ego buster

Ok, now that u have made it to IIMB.... so what?

Well let me put things as they are.... u keep topping throughout ur life.. be is school be it college...and then u land up at IIM. Actually what is IIMB, it is just a B-School which goes around picking up all the toppers thoughout the country and then couriers them to one place called IIMB, and then makes them compete with each other.

So whats the final outcome?
1) Ur ego takes a huge bashing.
2) U feel a complex
3) U give up...

And u attain enlightenment!! :)

And u foget why u actually came here... to acquire knowledge or to top the exam!!

To sleep or not

I just want to run out from here. I don’t want to do mba. There is just too much of pressure here.
I am feeling sleepy, I can’t sleep, I want to sleep, I am not supposed to sleep. If I sleep now I must wake up early, I might not wake up early so I must not sleep now. I must try to understand Accounting, but I’m feeling sleepy. I have to work out problems in accounting and probability but I don’t have the concentration to work out problems. But I have to. I must not feel sleepy. Actually I am trying to wake myself up.

1 week down

Its been a week since classes began officially...and i feel 'lost'.

Financial Accounting, Microeconomics, Organization Design, Business-Govt-Society ... stuff i never imagined going thro' have started becoming my sole companions.

it's 10/07/2006 - 00.40AM

WorldCup footbal final is being screened thro a projector outside at L^2. And i'm sitting here and trying to make head or tail out of BGS.

A random line i came across while reading : "... As the nineteenth century wore on, however, distinctions among markets were obliterated in the interst of theoretical generality..."

"... The neoclassical typology is technological in origin..."

I don't wanna be in Day0... i just wanna gain some knowledge, stay on top, make some friends and settle down in life! Why am i here?

Day 5 -> 6

A surprise diagnostic test ensured that most of us here would not have to sleep on Day 4 nite... but surprisingly the human body will not co-operate with such conditions and i had a pretty long sleep from 12.30 to 5.30. After waking up, in a drowsy state managed to read up something!! And the test proceeded on well.... umm for every1 alomost!!

The traditional IIMB welcome followed... THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!!!

Had an hr of sleep and then went out loitering on campus with fellow pgites.

Its a L^2 dinner coupled with live projection of the Brazil-France match... and L^2 party nite is tonite!!!

Time's 4.50 AM and i still havn't slept.. did a little bit of dance and then came over... my the noise and beats and partying and dancing is still going on... i duuno when i'm gonna wake up tomorrow. Gnite or rather Good morning!

IIM B ROCKS!
