ok....so after being a silence reader for some time....its my time to contribute to this lively thread....
A Flashback on past 3 weeks at GIM (its not Gym, its GIM, Mind u !!!) : reached here on 18th june and tranquility of goa touched me almost instantly...roads here are of good quality and (more importantly) without much traffic( Thats a jaanat for a mumbaite !!!)...got the taste of culture @ GIM when i met our senior dinesh (or dinu bhaiya ) ...he and other seniors were pretty helpful and helped us to settle down here quite quickly...Had heard a lot about OT(Men's hostel) b4 coming here and belive me, its a place to be @ GIM...It seemed whole ribandar (whole panaji may be) knew abt no. of girls in our batch many days b4 we came here
i really cant forget that nearby shopkeeper's dialogue on the very second day of my stay here : " PGP1 ? U Have 55 gilrs in ur batch rt ? "....the reagular class sessions started after 3-4 days of orientation and it felt like : THE GAME IS ON !!!!!... one thing i realised very quickly was that time management is of utmost importance here ( in any B-School for that matter ) ....if u can manage ur time effectively... and can manage right mixture of fun and studies, life is set here !! soon, bunch of assignments and presentations started and i statred getting the feel of wht really group work is all about....
had a lovely mid summer nite where PGP1s exhibited their (exceptional) talents....fortunatly, i also got a chace to sing a faviourite kishore kuamr oldie at 2 :45 am
The really good thing was almost all seniors set throughout Mid summers patiently (without throwing eggs and tamatars :laugh:)..then came the freshers party...it was real fun and most of us came back when new day had already begun( read 6 am )...
to sum up, its been a great experience till nw and i am sure next 2 yrs will add lots of value to me...avg sleeping hr of 4-5 hrs is vey common here and late night tea at jaggus ( not me, the shop owner's name is jaggu :laugh:) keep me awake..GIM ROCKS !!!!!!
