so here comes the weekend.......I am going to jaipur before this term gets rolling...........Spent the entire day till 4am reading the newspapers of the last two weeks.Courtesy the exams.

There was a session by ranbaxy about innovation in leapfrogging and boy it was interesting. At one point of time,we were almost on a high!!!!!!!!!!!Was about brand essence,role of innovation and communication.Marketing sessions tend to be interesting always.

Had just two classes today.Marketing research was the new one.

My senses have numbed out and so i am not posting much here.Hoping to get into form once im back...........

One of the most interesting subjects i have come across is Organizational Behavior.This supplemented by reading "seven habits of highly effective people","born to win","im ok ur ok" has been a major learning for me from this course.

Understanding people dynamics etc was interesting.I have another course in related area called organizational effectiveness and change.Am looking forward to that subject as well.

Have a gl to attend.Will come back and finish this post.

The winter seems to be setting in steadily.Days are getting colder and foggier.Had 3 classes today.Later had a gl by an alumnus from Bank AM on structure of financial institutions and raising debt.Was a interesting one and not that much of a bouncer as was yesterday's gl on risk management and ALM.

The exam perios was one of a kind for me.Was able to say goodnight and good morning to atleast one person every half-an-hour.My biological clock is completely shaken right now. Guess the winter will set a few things right!!!!!!!!!!!

It is almost 3 weeks since i last watched 'the simpsons'.It is kind of depressing to miss out on this for so long.We had a screening of the movie 50 first dates.It is worth watching once.

PS-There might me traces of exaggeration and my posts should be taken with a spoon of salt.The discontinuity in the last 2-3 posts can be attributed to the scorching pace with which this sem has started.It looks more like a report from a journalist in the middle of a war!!!!!!!!!Guess it will cool down by this weekend.

well.The ITC competition went off well.Cant post the details as of now.One thing that the entire panel(A group of 5 CEOs and a prof from our school) had in common was commonsense.And plenty of it.When people start thinking big(as is the case with competitions),sometimes we tend to miss out on things that seem so obvious.Like there was one brilliant b-plan but it could be attracting the restrictive trade policy act.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had a MIS class. Will have a Fin Man class followed by a MR class and MacroEco class.

The delhi winter is shaping up slowly.I totally feel like hibernating!!!!!!!!!!Was totally frozen after driving from the campus to the hostel.

One interesting incident that took place a few days back opened me up to the reality of this place.Immediately after the fin acc exam which was the 2nd last exam,we had a 2 day break for the marketing exam.So we played a game of cricket.My friend accompanied me on the way back.He was having difficulty holding the stumps and near one turning,one of them fell on the road.As we were in a hurry,he started running with two stumps in hand to pick up the third one.And there was this lady who started shouting for help at the top of her voice.And my startled friend was almost runover!!!!!!She assumed that my friend was out to get her!!!!!!!!!!!!!Just goes to show how insecure the capital of this country is........Just unbelievable..........

where have i been????

Guess its time to put some life into this blog.I have been a victim of a human fraility called laziness.This combined with the worms on the lan and exam period was the perfect concoction or should i say the 'perfect excuse' for ignoring my blog. Am through with two classes-Management science , Organizational effectiveness and change.Have a class 'management accounting' and then it will be a looooong day with the ITC competition kicking off.Could extend past midnight.A very high profile event with coverage from CNBC.

Had just one day break between the two semesters.The delhi winter has not lived up to its reputation as of now and im glad.With the exams around, the last thing i need is to be all cozy in the bed.

Have a lot of stuff to fill up here so i guess there will be more action.This semester has a notorious reputation and is the toughest at this place.Hope im up to the task.

Have a society meeting and then lunch.Will then be back on campus to configure my wifi card and the it it the ITC thingie.
