Water, water everywhere....

Water water everywhere, nor any drop to drink....This is how I feel in the campus. Gyaan and intellectuals all around me but I am deprived of enlightenment. What a tragedy! I feel like back-end support. Though I would have loved to make it to the IIM campus on my own, I am glad I am here at all. Just think, I am breathing the same air as some of the finest management gurus! A great saint once said 'Kajal ki kothri me kaiso hi jatan karo, kajal ko daag to laage hi laage' By this logic, will some of the IIM magic rub off onto me?

One month since the ball was kicked off. Exactly one month back, the induction had started. All the students had walked to the old campus in the new PGPX T shirts. Families were invited at the induction and I got to know the wide spectrum of profiles that constituted this batch. Right from a fighter pilot to an MD from AIIMS, an IFS officer to an architect, the rainbow has more than 7 hues.

I had come to IIM with small hopes of my own. Will I get to work with an IIM Prof? Only time will tell.
