A semester gone by @ Great Lakes Institute of Management, Gurgaon.

"Swoosh!" That's how 8 weeks here went by@ Great Lakes Institute of Management,  Gurgaon. DAAAYYYUUUM!! I still can't get over it.

I'm trying to recall what I did. Week 1 - We were at Rishikesh, Week 2 - I remember books. Lots of books, Week 3 - I remember a lot of late nights with "Orange juice" and BAM!! It's the eight week. I'm unable to decipher if its a good thing or a bad thing. *goes into thinking mode*

This is how 2am looks like from where we stay. Coutesy - Raj Vikas (PGPM 14)


Good thing? Bad thing? I dont know. What I do know is that I have made friends. The kind who will help you up when need be. And that's not something you come across everyday.

A birthday party every week. A lot of "orange juice" and loud music. The neighbors are wild already. And I do not mean it in the fun way. Get your head out of the ditch man!

This is my first time ever being out of my house and I must say. I'm impressed. Again, I don't know what I'm impressed with. They serve Veg food 99.9997% (Six Sigma) of the time. And when they do, I wanted to throw a fork at the cook, the weather is either scorching or it rains so much that one needs a boat to get around and classes can get killing sometimes but hey! guess what, I'm impressed.

It's a package they say. This is that package.

Term 1 - Thanks to you. My friends in Bangalore are pisd off with me because of this post.


Cheers

"First Rain" @ Great Lakes Institute of Management, Gurgaon


Yes, very sentimental. The expression of the day - Tears of joy. A part of Bangalore experienced. Actually, a part of Bangalore (when bad) discovered.

Walked out onto the verandah and experienced breeze, actual breeze. The kind that is worth mentioning. "There is a God", I said to myself.

As dramatic as the situation was, I heard a bunch of retards singing "Rain is falling, chumma chum chum" (An ancient Hindi song. If you haven't listened to it. Don't bother, you didn't miss much). What a Buzz Kill! *Slaps forehead*

Speaking of Buzz Kill, a beer in the evening would've been the perfect combination but no, we aren't in heaven. We're at Great Lakes Institute of Management, Gurgaon and they love to give us assignments. Not one, not two but six hundred and fifty four billion assignments that have final submission dates no more than a week from today. You can just imagine how this day went. Started with an assignment in Marketing and ended with a partly done assignment in Organizational Behavior.

Bliss!!..... NOT.... but I wasn't complaining. It rained for almost 12 hours. So.. "Half-Bliss"
