Oh Assignments and projects !

This week had been very hectic. I believe everyone was and is extremely busy with completing assignments and projects ,which needed to be submitted before the start of classes on 19th. This assignments and project submission has become an integral part of the life. No single day passes when one is not engrossed in doing one or the other. There seems to be no end to this ,at least till we graduate next year. I just spoke with my friend Harpreet, who is also doing his MBA at Lyon Business School in France and he was also working on one of his assignments . Most of the cases that we are doing at IIM and he is doing at Lyon B School are common. They all have their origin at the mother of B schools " The Harvard Business School".Working on cases is always easy when done in groups. Other thing on which I worked this week was the next issue of "i CANvas". We have got little delayed this time with the issue, probably by few days. My friend and editor Chandan has been spending sleepless nights working with designers and printers in Bangalore for this. Hats off to him! The pressure on me this time has been relatively less then what it was at the time of inaguration. But, I think I will have quite a work once the material starts coming to me for editing and proof reading.
Yesterday, my dear friend Mrinal started his B school life at ISB Hyderabad. Infact, I knew he would really love that place. When we planned for going back to B school, we thought it would be great if we could become classmates. But destiny had planned otherwise. I landed up at IIM I and he at ISB Hyderabad. We may not be together, but I know we will be working closely on many things in the coming year. My best wishes go out to him for his future at ISB and beyond!I also look forward to visit him at ISB in the near future may be for participating in an event or for just a party!!
