the story of an IBIAN

U became a part of PGDM – IB AIM (09-11) batch when

On the very first day, u entered the college and thought why dint u study hard for CAT.

U wore formals because you feared Mr. Gopal Pathak would fine you if he catches you in casuals.

U ran out of the second floor corridors whenever your cell beeped.

U entered the classroom to find one known face and walked out laughing with all 56 of them.

U acted perfect just to make sure that you are not the topic for discussion that day, later you realized it’s amazing to see people smile when they discuss you.

U unknowingly became a part of college politics that spoiled your relation with a few, after a year u realized it was so immature of you to fight on such pity issues.

U came to the fresher party with your roomies, but later in the party you enjoyed with the whole batch.

U attended all the guest lectures whenever it was written “Attendance Compulsory” on the notice board only to realize that even those guests are not interested in giving the lectures.

U attended all the events in your first year

U were so tensed for your first term exams, that you started studying more than a week before just to realize that a night before your exam is the only time you can concentrate the best.

Assignments were meant to be completed before coming to the college and ab to bass yehi puchte hain, pages kitne hain..

To enter the class just a minute before the attendance is a subject matter of feeling proud

Only one source of information was known – “Google”….. source mein bhi neeche www.google.co.in likhte the

But now as the time is passing by we realize that only a few more exams are to be written and a few more events are left. The real grilling would start the day we land up in a job. This is for all my friends, to tell you that only 5 months are left of our college life, make the most of it now.

DISCLAIMER: IBIANS ARE A PART OF AIMIANS (UNITY IN DIVERSTY)

“Rush of Negativity – the art of DECEIVING it”

The old favorite phrase of all the wise men “Go for MBA and you will get a good job” has started to take a back step these days. With all the adverse effects of recession, the people with experience are not getting a good job, then how do I stand a chance (Yes, I am doing MBA for everyone's information). I by default have enrolled for the course titled “INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS” but I don’t know the “I” of it. Being a science student I don’t know why management doesn’t have any subject related to science, Eco doesn’t make me feel glad; to say the least unlike other subjects it doesn’t disappoint me though. To do away with this discomfort I have opted for finance. Yes, it does seem to be my cup of tea with a lil ginger in it (Positive Sign). But people around me come from commerce background, ahh…it straight away states that I am in a big trouble. The best I could do is brush up my fundamentals of finance (Positive Sign).

Thus first issue is resolved, but my mind always finds another reason to feel tensed. I have read somewhere that our mind never rests, it thinks of the worst situations that could happen. Another issue knocks my mind’s doors. “Bache study hard, graduation marks matter a lot when you go for job”, my big b always said so. I did pay heed to his words, but my university never did. Our state university believes in the fact that if more people get good marks, then the number of unemployed people would increase in the state, consequently government would have to create more jobs. – “The simple funda of Demand and Supply, what I have learnt in MBA till date, as the Demand increases, the supply has to be increased, and if not then it disturbs the equilibrium”. As a result, “WE” the students have to suffer and I didn’t get good marks. Thus I may not be able to apply for most of the research companies, in spite of my knowledge. If I consider my MBA then I could proudly say that yes I am performing, that compensates for my graduation marks, which would substantiate my reasons for not getting good marks in graduation. I could easily bargain on my lacking 2% marks (Positive Sign).

Remember Aamir Khan’s “ALL IZ WELLL” phenomenon, our heart is very sweet, it believes whatever we say. Keeping faith in our Bollywood industry, I have started manipulating my heart and mind for the most optimistic results. Since I was a child, I have learnt that one should always aspire for the stars, even if we don’t get them, we won’t return with a handful of mud either.

I hope I get a good job. I know this is the same story everywhere, negativity does make us weak, but we need to know a way to convert our negativity into positive energy and it could be done by CONTEMPLATION.

Well I was thinking to post this sometime later, but then one of my sanguine friends “Commoner” said that will you post it after getting a job. Well that vanished all the cynicism I had.
