A not so typical week that
went by in the first semester @ Great Lakes, Gurgaon. "Yendhuku?"
("Why" in Telugu), you might ask.
That's because there were a few
students who thought it would be a good thing to have a mid term test on a
Sunday instead of a weekday. This is one such moment when my hand wanted to slap
somebody really hard. A few minutes later, I took that back.
We had the test scheduled on the day
after out Marketing Assignment 1 presentation. Speaking of my Marketing
Presentation, it did not just go as planned.. but better. Way better. Mr. Easwar
Krishna Iyer, a faculty from the Chennai campus as well as a very important
member in the Great Lakes family said "This is one of the best
Marketing Management - I presentations I have seen in my career".
Unbelievable but I shit you not, its true. I was flying for obvious reasons.
"YOU KILLED IT YOGESH. You were born for Marketing", I said to myself
like a third person. One of my many defects.
Now coming back to my modest side,
the Marketing Presentation Day lasted till 11:30PM making it a record 14 hours
in college. I was super glad that the test was rescheduled. I did not complain
about the test being held on Sunday until Sunday. All I remember was studying,
studying, and more studying. I think I did not give enough emphasis on how much
I studied.
Just like that, the weekend that
didn't exist was over. All I did different was have a mango milkshake.
And about my test in Quantitative
Ability. *keeping my fingers crossed*
