Life @IMT Dubai:Aspirations and Expectations.

[spirit11]

Request:This is not a IMT D Query Thread,If you want any information about IMT Dubai,please PM me or raise it on the IMT D Query thread.

I had initially thought of opening this thread once I reach IMT D,but as fate as has it,thought why not share with all of my future IMTians our experience right from us taking admission at IMT D and the various phases that we will be going through even before we reach the campus,so here I am with my first post in the thread which will be one of the most scared thread for me @PG for atleast next two years,for it is here that I wish to share each and every experiences of Life @IMT D.

So,how do I begin this tread,why not begin by writing down first what I am sure every individual has when he/she starts on with a new work and that is expectations,so what are my expectations from IMT D.

Expectations:

1) A Change from Monotonus and soporofic Routine.(Yups!U Guessed It Right,I am active on Frustated IT Professional Thread.)

2) A world full of Myraid Experiences.(IMT and Dubai..Can't get bigger than this.!)

3) Knowledge (Hoping to atlast find an answer to that elusive Q,Why MBA.?)

4) Making relationships for a life time.

In Short an Experience of a Lifetime.(Bas Itna sa Khwaab hai..)

Hi Diablo,

There is not one but two threads regarding Life@ Imt D but regretably both are dead long time back.

Reasons for Starting This new thread:

1) Previous Threads not being active for past many months.
2) Wanted to go on for good informative begining to the most imp thread for us at IMT D.
3) This thread is not just about life @ IMT D but much more than that.

These are few are the reasons that lead me to opening of his thread.

And I guess these are enough good reasons for me to continue with this thread.

Sure will ask the mods to close the old threads.

Thanks

"Boldness Changes everything"-

Thats the line that comes to my mind as I begin to summarize IMT-D Delhi Meet Chapter-2.

Now I always had this feeling in my heart that its gonna rain on the day of our meet,it had already been raining cats and dogs for the past couple of days and the rain gods had not given me any reason to believe to it wont on sunday,but somehow I believed that if there is any day for this meet to take place it is today,some of my friends were already calling for a second plan to be put in action just in case it rained.but I dont know why I had this affection for India gate and kept the first plan in action.

Time Lines on a Rainy Sunday:

15:30-> Its been raining for past couple of hours.Why me God..??

16:00-> People Start calling in,Is the meet On..?? and I reply sure it is...

16:30-> Rain turns into drizzle and I leave for India Gate.Thank God

16:30-18:00->People keep calling in to confirm there Presence.(Cheerzz to you guys who came even after heavy rains!!)

Well,this time line would have given you just an backdrop to the conditions in which this meet was held,but by the time we all reached India Gate,by God's grace the weather had cleared and India Gate was looking as awesome as it always does.ready for an exciting meet.

I was the first one to reach there(I had to...!),and then slowly junta starting trickling in,first came paras,then 5mins later varun,nipun,nitin,varun(second).....I was relived now that atlast the meet at India gate is taking shape and its gonna be if not gud but ok..(I was soon to be proved wrong...),as people kept coming in till 7,at the end of the hour we had about 20 people that had joined us over at India Gate all rearing for the meet and it was turning out to be a gr8 meet.the first thing that anybody will do at India Gate is obviously click a couple of snaps and our IMT-D guys not to be left behind did the same,we had our group photo and then we proceeded to roam around India Gate.

Now,Madhur had not turned up till 7(Busy man as he is..,he called me up and asked for our positions...which I made him aware of,he joined us at arnd 7:15,junta continued with usual IMT-D gyaan...(now dont ask me what that gyaan is...?)but it was interacting with so many of my friends...then madhur came up with this nice thought of having an ice cream and a line came to my mind of a gr8 Ice Cream Vendor.."No Journey to India gate is complete without having an Ice Cream..",so all of us enthusatically went to the ice cream vendor,now being an MBA student we tried to work out some discount for all of us as we were more than 20 people but sadly weren't able to convince the vendor..perhaps after an MBA from IMT-D we all will be able to learn how to do it..,anyways so all of the guys had there ice lollies..(not me..as i was suffering from Cold..) I heard later that the Ice Creams were Sponsored by Madhur as he had a gr8 newss to share with all of us which he did later(I will not divulge it here,without your consent Madhur.) but I would like to congratulate you on this gr8 newz,we had a Ice Cream IMT-d photo shoot..(Pic Mailed @ GG)...then we continued with another round of our our usual chit chat..it was already around 8.30 and it was about time that we bought this eventful evening to an end and at around 8.30 after having a photo-op against a light studded India Gate we all called it a day and decided to have our next meeting at IMT-D..

Highlights of The Day:

1) By God's Grace Weather Clearing Up.
2) Junta Turning Up in Large Numbers Despite the Rains.
3) Madhur's Top Newzz.!

It was a gr8 meet Guys and I would once again like to thank all of you guys who turned up for the meet and made it so successful and Rocking..!!If we keep up the same enthusiasm I am sure we would do gr8 at IMT-D.

Three Cheerzz!!

God Speed!
