a new week

After spending few hours at home, I had to rush back to college owing to the open house conducted by students council.The rest of the sunday was spent relaxing.The new week started with a good news that the IBF professor won't be coming which meant 3 hours free.But the other news which dampened the joy of free hours was that of the quiz of Business Ethics on tuesday.The chapter is too big and I haven't touched the book yet.The last lecture was of French which was tough as usual.The activities for place-com have started to warm up and members would be selected shortly.I have decided on a few clubs for which i will b applying but place-com is not among them.Met an IM senior today on campus and talked a bit with him.
Signing off....gotto study for the quiz tomorrow

waiting for weekend.

After a week long of lectures and case studies,sunday is approaching and all in the hostel are earnestly waiting for it.the club selections have started and many are trying hard to get into clubs of their choices.I am yet to apply for any club but definitely going for sports club.The late night walk has now become are daily act , with a walk down to 'arcus'( all nite canteen) and having a paneer roll there.The days we are a bit tired to walk down to arcus,the terrace provides the necessary location to relax and go over day's proceedings and curse and blame and praise any1 and everyone we can think of.Will be taking a few pics of the campus as soon as I get some time.Will be putting them on the blog.Have to watch a movie over the weekend and present a role play in class in the coming week.The french classes are becoming increasingly tougher ,will have to start self study of french.Another subject will be starting from the next week, so the schedule is going to be jam-packed.The class is worried about the campus that will be allotted to the batch , hopefully the decision will be made soon and conveyed to us.too tired to write more after 10 hrs of lectures in the day.....

Had a few of classes today.Nice discussions.Also a good game of footy in the evening.The weather too cooled down so spent some time loitering on the terrace with cool night breeze blowing and the sight of high rise gurgaon buildings on the horizon.Too tired to study in the night,so slept inspite of loads to read before the next classes.

The seriousness is back

After a well deserved holiday on sunday ,the classes started from monday.We got our books on sunday and they are more than a semester's books in engg.The exams are just at month end.Also the method of study is different.There is no theory as such, all the teaching is mostly done by cases. Cases defining different situations are studied and discussed upon.There is healthy interaction between faculty and the students and we can even change the course if don't think the course is relevant or if we have some different cases or topics which we would like to discuss.So this mode of study comes as a surprise element after the engg college.The schedule is hectic as compared to PGPM students.But as per seniors its going to be more hectic as term progresses.So just preparing to slog it out here and also not miss on the enjoyment factor.

End with a bang

The induction till now had been tough,disciplined and harsh on us.But the end has come as a great surprise and matter of immense joy.The icebreaker organised by seniors was awesome , with one and all participating with full vigour. From anthem to the different activities late nite in the icebreaker made every1 throw praises at the senior batch.Then came the all-nite fresher's party.With booze flowing freely as water,it reminded me of movie amercan pie , just the gal factor of AP missing.We danced till we were sapped off of all our energy.The alcoholics had a free day.Starting from 11 pm ,party went on till early hours of the morning probably around 4-5 am. The campus at the end was a sight to see.Glasses and glasses and beer bottles and vodka bottles strewed across the party area and outside, talli people lying everywhere and others tired as hell after hours of dancing.This seemed some college party , never experienced at my engg college.The mood has been set by the seniors - work hard,party harder.
The course classes start from monday.The books have been given to us and exams scheduled in a month for term 0.The books given are as much as were for a semester course in engg. Wondering how am i going to finish them off.Our work work load and time in classes is double of that of PGPM students.So its going to be harder for us.Today's Sunday , going back home for a few hours.Unexpectedly i don't feel any bit home sick and would have done perfectly fine even if didn't go home. Going rite now.....will post wen the classes start.

Induction is fun too

At last some fun in the induction week.The day was assigned for outbound activities.We assembled in the morning after breakfast.The activities were designed and conducted by an outside agency.It was a gr8 learning process and fun filled experience.We performed activities which included wall climbing, rappelling, moving across a huge pit using rope and other exercises.it was a tiring yet enjoyable session.in the night we had a sort of treasure hunt organised by the seniors which actually was a form of disguised ragging.There were group of seniors at various landmarks of the college.According to clues when a team of juniors reached the landmark, seniors asked the team to do some sort of activity or a fun task to give out the next clue.It was a good interaction with seniors.Running at 12 in the night throughout the college and and dancing in front of seniors with them cheering on , was indeed a sight i hadn't imagined i would see. But overall a gr8 ice breaker and for the first time saw the fun side of the seniors.Returned quite late in the night around 3 a.m. Thankfully no assignment :) but there is still yoga the next morning...:(


Here's the MDI's Anthem(muh me lo).Focus on the lyrics :)
