Amazing Summers of 2008 ( mumbai Local n More)

The Mumbai Saga

Hey All

I have been working in Mumbai for last three weeks and would like to tell you my experiences about the city, the financial capital of India, the first working day would be better to start with. I reached the office after missing a local which went from front of my eyes, it came stopped and went and I was like how could I get in and in front of me 5 persons got in ..so the journey began oops just missed.. I decided to get into next local in any case and my surprise if u decide it u will get into its different tht only half of my foot got in.. :-) so I am here 8:51 in the local with 40 mins to go on foot and half..after sometime I found me in how I don’t know.. the middle was like hell u cant move even an inch and I cant explain (btw this was first class for you)..
So I reach office at 10:15 my office strts at 9..first day waited for meeting for an hour n half discuss the project and etc..someone need detail will So I reach office at 10:15 my office strts at 9..first day waited for meeting for an hour n half discuss the project and etc..someone need detail will tell personally..

Coming to Mumbai next week told me why the hell people lives here.. I got home tired as hell so it was like tht sleep getup office home sleep…

The life looked like hell.. even though mine is comfortable ..living with sister nothing to worry abt daily chores..but I think why anyone live here..

But I decided to njoy whatever time I was here.. went arnd malls..sea face ate out ..pubs n discs r still missing..I am now enjoying Mumbai..even local trains (can afford to as its just 25 more days for me) njoi the fighting goes on there..like ‘main tujhe neeche faink doonga’ ‘kahan se aaye ho aadmi to nahin lagte’ n many more..

I even managed to carry popcorn in thee local n enjoied it it was difficult but really awesome..i am listening to music..thnx to local trains 1 hr daily..

Waise mumbai me kahin bhi jao life seems like a LOCAL TRAIN..

hopes remain unfulfilled

I came to IIM with an hope of mutual transfer of knowledge with those around me. the system of IIm's since we are flooded with assignments never actually allow us to work in a group its always divide the work and group..

So some of us decided to start a group and I took the lead. My plan for the groups were too big, in the hindsight, but I did a mistake I never took the views of my group members. it was always about me I think and when this happens you know the results are. Today I have left the group as I have understood the preferences are different. As a souveneir of one more unsuccesful attempt of doing something I would write here in the blog about the group

Firstly I thought I would introduce the whole group but now I think I would go with a group introdn

The group was lively no doubt about that, each member was brilliant and filled with ideas and contributed immensely to the group but slowly the spirit died or as I can see the IIM won again. the workload took its toll those who have promised to themselves to be different were taken y the river of exams and flurry of assignments. the post were getting vacant slowly like in the case of Lord of the rings( alas here no one came to help) as leader himself was full of attitude and did not foresee what was coming. he remained too much preoccupied in himself wanted everyone to work according to his prerogative. He was insensitive and did not understood others reasons. result can be foreseen by a child it was crystal clear as a result of a deer in front of cheetah the group slowly died members leaving the group.
Now situation has come to a level where if group is not dis bundled than the problem might result in some issues among group member. I know that therefore will allow to die a slow painful death as I cant see any other path.

Today I am sad, angry and exasperated and what not. I would always remember "Sector Analysts"

Hey it was gr8 working with all the group members an immensely talented pool of individuals with whom I might not get a chance to work much now as the "SECRET SOCIETY" has ended. the fun and enjoyment was immense it was really gr8.

Hope it never ended............................................................

living two hours just for myself

Have you ever be alone... roaming without purpose alone in a shopping mall with weekend crowd..if you have you will endorse my view its quite different actually would say its enthralling.. and it gets better when you are there just there and not thinking about anything...I have never lived better two hrs alone just letting my thoughts pass through my mind and not lingering on them.. i wud love to pass next weekend like this alone and aloof and not thinking.

the story is becoming more interesting. a study group I have formed is on verge of being dismantling I have been chosen as MF coordinator and has taken my first responsibility in the college. So now I have challenges of making that group work again and making MF a learning center.

The club of booming enterpreneur..is my aim now
