Re: Life @ IIM Indore - 29-09-2007, 03:23 PM

Long time that I am back to PG...

A lot has changed in the second term compared to the first. Finding hardly any breathing time... Loads of case analysis, assignments, projects makes academics hurry at us while summer interviews are looming large... So refining resume, studying term 1 papers again are on the top of priority list...

I am slowly understanding that this term might be the biggest influence on which specialization I would take up which will decide my life from then on... So a monumental period of time...

After having a relatively easier first term adjusting to this sudden academic rigour is the challenge right now. Of course you can sail through with free riding in the groups but personally I cant do that.

People desperately waiting for a sunday just after 2 weeks from vacation sums up the situation here...

Apart from the acads presence of the exchange students especially French girls in the campus gives it an extra cosmopolitan look... And how can I forget the unforgettable Cricket Final and the ensuing celebrations... Watching the match in a packed audi with friends is probably the best way to see a match... And the "matkiphod" event left us with some indelible marks both mentally and physically

Having a grand party tomorrow to rejuvenate the brain...

Thats it for this time...
Hoping that Luv posts his experiences too

True dude , well we just have one freeday in a week in this term as oppose to two in the 1st term , and I was so eagerly waiting for a sunday ,a much awaited break from all those cases and assignments and this term might be the most important for us , as most of the guys will be thinking abt thier specialization before the summers.

The 1st 2 weeks of this term went too gud !despite the enormous wordload ,ppl seem to b njoying.Cricket final , would remain one of the most memorable days of ma life , it was an exprnc watchin the match on a big screen in audi wid house full ...and ppl goin crazy after the last ball ,followed the mad dance @the stge , but more was to come ..whn this guy parked his car in front of the b block hostel ..even those frenchies njoyed watchin the scene aftr dat! thanks to the culcom for matkifod ,jst too much of the fun for the day , and above all , even the profs cancelled the submission for nxt day ,one cudnt hav asked for more !!!

lots of things goin on here...it was fun playin chess in the evenin..gotta a walkover in the 1st round , now eagerly waitin for the second one , had some practice in the evenin, & my record still remains unbeaten here so far ..though i knoe it wont last long !work already started for iris .to reduce the sideeffects double dose of classes v r gettin des days frm profs and seniors ...infiniti has arranged a an event for all the pc game luvers ..and m still luking for teammates for quake 3 ! ..and whts dis ...jst rcvd a mail frm marketin club ..for an event which wud run for 4 days ..sounds like a biggie .. !a party tmrw ..apj kalam vistin the campus !! so much happenin here
oops , its 6:20 in the morning ...and i forgot to sleep ..on a satrdy nite ,not so long ago satrdys were spent on only sleeping !!

oh god ..y a day contains jst 24 hrs ??

..thinkin ,if i shud go for a mornin walk !

Oh yeah that was some week! First there was the (belated) fresher's party (even the vegetarian was good). then thr was the special lunch on Gandhi Jayanti..sry World Non-Violence Day. after that our beloved x-prez came to campus on foundation day...score one more for special lunch and last but not the least, we hosted our alumni over the weekend in Footprints 2007...now was that some gr8 fun or what! thr was a hilarious play followed by an alumni intro session. it was incredible to see how popular some from the earlier batche(s) were...they mustve felt like movie stars returning to their hometown (but thats not for me to say...oops). its funny but officially, the party began after this with Planet-I turning back time for the alumni (DJ Nite @ D). all this was of course besides the special dinner phew!

now summer plcments approacheth and with it the advance PPT bombardment...just a taste of things to come. october sure seems like its goinna end with a bang! Meanwhile even as i write this, we're hosting NITIE over for a sports meet...gotta run n cheer!

Nice to see this place buzzing!

Fifth term has seen me spend most of the time in my room watching Sitcoms and catching up on lost time with the room

Home advantage seems to dictate that IIM-I is beating NITIE in every event so far ( I could be wrong here)

There are way too many things to do and way too less time (the eternal B-schoolers' excuse for not doing anything) which means that this is just one disjointed post after a long time and probably for a long time

another not-so-gentle bump..
the last one week was one of extremes..
starting from first three days with a grand total of five hours of sleep and the next day sleeping for 14 hours..
the college is cool ,, seniors are supercool....

this place is a photographers paradise...
just snapped a few pics of the campus..
here you go..

The thing about a B School is that there is something happening all the time. Theater Workshop, Assignment Submission, PGP 1 vs 2 sports selection and a Surprise Quiz in MM today

Got screwed. Looks like someone has to start studying again

Reporting from the hillock that never sleeps,

Ahem.. Anand.. We'll know the truth once the results of the quiz are out I've some serious catching up to do to compensate for my horrible performance in today's quiz.

Life @ IIM I has already been quite an experience Slept for 2-3 hours a day in the initial 4 days I was here. And just when I thought I can manage without sleeping much, I slept for like 12 hours a day after that to compensate for it

The campus is awesome. And the climate makes it even better. Haven't seen the campus completely yet though (Blame it on excessive sleeping ) And we haven't gone to the city yet due to the curfew in Indore.

Waiting for this weekend


CAT'06: 99.41 - 4 IIM calls - IIM I WL - 0 final call

CAT'07: 99.74 - IIM I final convert
