As I write this post, we are almost at the fag end of 4th term. To say in other words, we are already 66.66% MBA ! Just 14 more days and we will move into the 5th term, the second last term of our course. Time has literally flew past by. I believe this year( starting Oct 07), has been the most hectic year in my entire life and I see more is coming in the next two terms. The 5th and 6th terms are basically full of electives. I have chosen a mix of finance and strategy. Finance is what is giving me jitters! Uptil now ,though I have studied quite a bit of finance but still I am far from comfortable. Its well known that certain subjects in term 5 and 6 require very good understanding of corporate finance and more over the teachers in finance are said to be brutal! So, I am mentally preparing myself for the grind. I sincerely hope, I do well in finance in my next 2 terms.
IIM campus during this time of the year is at its best. The weather at Indore is awesome and the entire scenery inside and outside the campus is lush green! Its so soothing to the eyes that I spent many minutes ( we do not have hours at IIM to do anything except studying or preparing for some presentation or project etc etc. )sitting in my hostel room balcony, enjoying the scenes of the surroundings. I feel completely at peace and extremely happy from inside, whenever I am there. My balcony opens onto a hill slope from where one can see the main gate of IIM campus. The slope is not very wide but its quite substantial in length. During this part of the year, the entire hill slope looks stunningly beautiful with flowers and lush green grass plus trees.Early morning there are visitors, white birds.Many of my classmates mistook them for ducks. They look very pretty in the green background. They come in flock of 5-6 and roam on the entire hill side and they go as quietly as they come, roughly before noon! I have taken some very good pictures of our guests basking in glory!
Just few days back, we had a guest lecture by MD & CEO of Morgan Stanley in India, Narayan Ramchandran.It was an awesome lecture and our guest went about giving us tips on how to develop and sustain the art of reading.It was one of those speeches that awed the entire audience be it students or the faculty. I heard one of the professors commenting after hearing the speech that he felt very small before the guest and the speech has inspired him to read and read more with dedication. The prof is well respected and has tons of experience, that speaks about the quality of the lecture.
Time to work on the Internationa Business project, more to come later............
