Week 46 - The last chapter !!

Exams are over.. de-orientation week is in full swing ... No more assignments ... no more lectures.. only few days from graduation ...

And the facebook is replete with nostalgia/last messages... some of my favs are

1) From Saiket
The last CPs.. the last cold calls, the rogues playing Nascar in the last row.. The TA in the corner watching silently as always.., the occasional jokes that will make the entire class laugh.. the 10min break in between... and so on.. will be history in few hours.. hmn..

2) From Sindhu

A momentous year, went as silently as it came... Sat in the curved classes for the last time, listened to the prof in the well of the class for the last time, enthusiasm and anticipation when I came in... memories and nostalgia as I move out... Cheers to a year well spent


3) From Vineet
Too many lasts to count ..last assignment, last class, last standing ovation to prof, last exam........But why count the lasts n not count on what lasts forever... numerous memories, actuation of dream MBA, and most importantly - Lifelong friends !!! Curtain's aren't down. They never are. Just that the game is all set to be more interesting than ever before !!

And it is over.
Finished.
Done.

week 46 :- Nearing the end

It is raining events at ISB...
Portrait project by the photography club
SLC events.. many of them ...i love their tagline .. "Getting you a life .. One even at a time"


You are never alone at ISB.. if nothing then u have assignments .. specially when u r nearing end of term ...
so people are just doing minimal needed to wrap up assignments.. only ones studying are 

1) who love grades
2) who are whisker away from deans list
3) who have set targets like 3 , 3.5 or 2.5 ( min for graduation)
4) who are just in the deans list
5) and some idiots 

and not to mention .. everyone is nostalgic ....
Facebook is replete with nostalgia status messages....

Fun time over... 
Need to prepare for corporate life again ...

btw,
i got my offer letter ... so i have a job.. for sure ... no reneging by company ... i luv them for that ... 

Date and location are confirmed yet titles tentative for the lack of written communication ...


Rest is best...

End of most happening year of lives of 570 people is just round the corner ..

1 week of studies .. 1 weekend of exams .,... 1 de-orientation week .. 1 day of graduation...
and it is over ...

So soon !!!

Weeks 41 & 42 - Fun for some .. none for some ...

Have been really lazy ..... Sloppy and careless ... but have had lots of fun .... And know what .. I am typing this sitting in  a class... trust me blogging is best use of time in this class ...

41st week

It was exams of term 7 which announced that term 8 is round the corner and the end is about to begin ...
First time I had a course in which I was not having SRK as my group mate ... he has been tagging along ( rather i m tagging .... whatever !!)  Am not used to prepare for end terms.. he is the one who is attentive and intelligent and serious chap .. [Serious = Still after grades ;-)]
but then it makes sense for him he is all close to the coveted dean's list .. hope he makes it..

Just 2 papers later I was done with term 7 .. and managed to ensure that I will not flunk...also ensured that i wont get an A.. But thats ok ... I am nowhere near deans list ...

Anyway after exams the fun part started .. vacations ...

42nd week

This was a week of fun ... For me .. because I am relieved.....for folks who have not yet signed on the dotted line it was a tough period... It was week with completely contrasting memories ..... people with job were in frolic mode and rest were not .. they were still studying ... prepping hard and giving luck a best shot ...

week 43 is term 8 .. beginning of end ...
