Heads & Tails!
Yes, Its Over!!
And what a roller-coaster ride it has been over the last 18 months... Full of twists & turns, ups & downs and everything imaginable and unimaginable too.. well its really difficult to put it into words, but i will give it a try!
June'09: I entered the hallowed portals of the B-school with various perceptions and saw most of them materialising into reality one way or another, thats how:
Heads: Grinding schedule (24*7)
Tails: Well well grinding it was but only if you are a huge movie buff, adore sitcoms, extra-curricular fanatic or ofcourse, if you love Mumbai and/or Goa: 24*7 is really not enough then!
Heads: Friends or Colleagues or Acquaintainces?
Tails: A mixture of all of them 20:30:50 more or less. But then those 20% would be Friends for Life! :)
Heads: Study 'Hard', Party 'Harder'!
Tails: The 'Hard-Harder' gulf will beat the 'Rich-Poor' divide in India! It was more like - Study Smart, Party Wilder!
Heads: Estrogen(20%)Testosterone(80%)levels :P
Tails: Quantity-wise: Almost true i would say - but then this was not really the E-Quality i had in mind ;) wont talk abt T-Quality though.. well I dare not!
Heads: Techno-Manager!
Tails: Now the Engg. Techno was more of a theoretical-kind, however the Managerial skills acquired here were more a result of hands-on experience (something present quite in abundance)!
Heads: Job/Placement/Profile/Money - The Goal..!!
Tails: Though it might well have been the driving force behind cracking CAT and secure entry into a top B-School. It sure was not the only goal for most of the budding managers. The complete MBA package was more fulfilling and enjoyable. And yes ofcourse The Goal was indeed achieved as a matter of fact :D
Jan'11: As I leave the evergreen campus with the complete package of experiences to be cherished for the entire life-time, NITIE has indeed followed the CHAOS Theory with Heads & Tails turning out to be two sides of the same golden coin.
Thanks NITIE!!
P.S. With more than 4 months of absolute nothingness to follow, the blogger in me is well & truly unleashed again. So watch out this space for some really kooooool stuff..!! :D
