Where was I?

First of all, my apologies for writing in a while. If you have been wondering where the hell was I, remember that I've been in a 'real' grind at PGPX. Do not believe me? Do you know that in last 10 weeks:

- We've worked on close to 75 cases

- We've written 12 surprise quizzes/ mid term

- We've written 9 full-length exams

- Around 140 classes were held and we attended ALL of them

- We wrote/ co-wrote/ contributed to close to 50 reports/ submissions/ PPTs

Still skeptical? How about the following picture, which shows the amount of work load, we just endured :)

On a separate note, it has been a rewarding experience so far. The whole batch has shown lot of character and people have gone out of their ways to help others. To this 'spirit' (though Gujarat is a dry state) of PGPX 08-09, I'd say - I'm lovin' it.

Between, we got done with term I today (Sunday). Term II begins tomorrow (Monday). Gotta go. It is a 2-case day tomorrow! As SG very aptly captured and modified Citi's global campaign as follows:

Every night you sleep,
But your Dreams are wide awake; because
Ambitions never sleep
Aspirations never sleep
Goals never sleep
Hopes never sleep
Opportunities never sleep
The world never sleeps
That's why we work around the clock
To turn dreams into realities
That's why IIMA never sleeps
The PGPX never sleeps

Consumerism at peak

The other day, while going to office in USA, I observed a lady. She was watering the plants in her patio. While that is a normal chore for many people, while striked me more was how consumerism has seeped in an average American . Check out:

She was wearing a Nike track suit, had put on a pair of Nike sports shoes, listening to an iPod, holding a cup of coffee from Dunkin Donuts in one hand and watering plants using other hand.

No wonder, an average American spends huge sums on articles of pleasure (source: WB Consumer Spending report).

Howz that - smoke at CST? Tell you what, you'll never find this kind of description for any American city, not even for a tinniest of the towns :)

Very rosy

I always want to follow it, but could never do so..

Jeene ka rangeen mausam,
ye khoobsurat zamana.
Kal ki hamein hai fikar kya,
kal kya ho kisne hai jaana.
Jina jise aata hai woh,
pal main hi mauj mana le.
Kal ki hamein fursat kahan,
soche jo hum matwale.

Very rosy, ain't it?
