BRAHMAN INSIDE

Philosophy is boring but it made me understand something about Indian culture, that I was not aware of.But strictly speaking I cant see at as an academic subject, thats the reason I got screwed up in the exam.Well I had lots of company tooooo :))
Dont get surprise with the word "BRAHMAN", its nothing but the worldly soul, i.e god.
Philosophy is too much into my head these days and as a result I am using these words. Please excuse me.

Lets get into the "good" part.Last couple of weeks had been wonderful, again
with exams, results and again exams.Not "good" part though.We had exams of strategy,marketing, accounting,philosophy and macroeconomics.I am not bothered about results though.After the respective exams, we freaked out big time,watched couple of movies, went out to eat to good places like Noodle house,Kaaraikudi (chettinad style) and for a surprise no beer since last 3 weeks.
Life was getting too monotonous with all the exams, academics and
assigments. We were looking after for a brain-teasing break, and suddenly we heard that our college events comittee is going to conduct a Biz quiz. WOOOOOOOOOOW.IT cant get better than that, I was excited at the thought.I had couple of friends with whom I decided to form a team.As you know there aint any preparations to be done, thats the best part :)))

THE DAY

THE DAY arrived and as many of them even I was excited.There was this team in another section which was considered to be the best, it had one of my close friend, we call him bulla.I dont think anyone gave my team a look.But that doesnt matter.ITS great to be an under-dog.Asusual, prelims took off.25 questions,15 mins, all decent questions , but again we didnt answer too many.I thought the story is over for us.After exam had a drag, just was waiting for the announcement for top6 from 30 teams.Meanwhile I tried dedicating "CHOPSUEY" to my friends in class, to find that it wasnt available in jukebox.hehehehehhehehehehehehe
Results were announced, asusual bulla's team was 1, then so on till 5.I was sure that we didnt make it , but then the beautiful girl announced "BRAHMAN INSIDE", whhhhhhhhoaaaaaaaah, it was my team, and we were bloody sixth, but anyways I think it was decent.
Quiz started, 6 rounds,got screwed in first round.we were waiting for a round which had trivia regarding businessmen, and it happened to be the second.Nobody thought we could screw other teams and eventually we lead the round.Samething repeated till 5rounds.we were topping the quiz at that point.

RAPID FIRE...... I hate this round, I could say that the round was so different this time, that we barely scored any point, and moreover we lost 10 points in negative.It was so embarrassing,but I think its a part of game.We didnt blame anyone,except for our luck.As expected bulla won the contest, and full praise to him.Overall , it was a wonderful event after a longtime, and made an impact over fellow friends.Mileage creation, they say :))))

After such an exhiliarating day,we had to study for the final exam of philosophy.Back to the square again. Hey friends, I will update my PAGE 1 group photo, and also the quiz pics very sooon.


Entertainment Ka TADKA

Asusual, I thought I will post review about a movie.This time its Krish.
well, hmmmn,errrrrrrrrr, what to say.Its an awesome movie for indians.I dont think there was any movie which was shot so well in Indian cinema. Awesome stunts,great screen presence by hrithik.Movie is worth watching once. Kids,will love it like anything.
Some people may not like it, due to highly Indianised first half.But dont worry, these are people who blow whistles if its SPIDERMAN and criticise if the samething repeated in Hindi.
Full marks to hrithik.Movie will be a runaway hit in chennai, because of its heroes similarity to the TAMIL superstars rajini and vijaykanth.
I also happened to watch MI3.Stunts are great , and we hardly get to watch anything else in the movie. Tom cruise is first rate.Maggie Q sizzles !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5 P's and one 'A'

Well, for most of you , 5 P's is confusing, but for all the MBA grads also its little confusing.This is because, during their academics they have heard either 4 or 7 P's in marketing. Hmmm, you are correct this 5th P is something related to me and the one A is related to the 5th P. I know its getting little bored with all these numbers ,then let me get into the stuff right.
First of all, sorry for being late in posting,now I am putting a disclaimer that I would be updating the blog once in 7 or 10 days depending on my free time.
Last fortnight was a very interesting and stressing one due to loads of assignments,presentation preparations and exam scares too.Finally,my wish came true, when I was in marketing class, getting taught by Dr.Paul prabhaker Sir, making it more interesting.All of we guys were enjoying the lecture to the maximum, marketing always fascinated me, and now there is anything else that can really divert me from being a marketing guy.Asusual, we got the assignments and this time it was to work on any "Company" and get the details about the marketing and business concepts. Thankfully because of my team mate we have decided to go for "AIR DECCAN" and the worst I decided to be the marketing project co-ordinator.Lots of eye brows were raised when I told that I wanted to be , but out of modesty no body put up any resistance.MBA teaches people to be decent , u know, and I was confirmed about that.Apparently, I had to work out and make sure that everybody is passing the information.It wasnt difficult since noone was working and asusual we all started working on the final day(For the first time I finished my part well ahead in time, and it made sense to all,and I also worked hard for that, may be because of interest in the subject)
Before all these events I was very happy to having passed the Philosophy with a C grade(However its no where near a substantial achievement).


THE PRESENTATION DAY

Presentations were supposed to start at 7.30 in morning, and since this was my first official presentation I had butter flies in stomach.We were supposed to come in formals, and I always follow formal suppositions(Is there any word like this?????).8 presentations were there and mine was the 7th making it more difficult.Presentations started with Tata motors,tata steels,TMB,Airtel, Kotak,Jet Airways.My turn came, and I already saw lots of people were bored and some of my friends yawning like hell.I was unhappy to see, the content of others presentations being good and the content for our presentation was not much and it depended on me and my frens presentation.Now you cannot wait to hear what happened,I know......
I always believe in delivering a presentation, which is listened to. Inorder to wake up my frens from sleep, I started asking some questions about Air deccan, and people got up and knew that something was happening.Then I started delivered it, finished it.I made it enough hillarious and funny to keep people engaged. I heard a huge applause to our presentation. I was not sure whether it was a sarcastic one, but I took it as a positive.Everyone congratulated me saying that my presentation was the best, if not the content.On peer to peer evaluation our group scored well.I was happy, and my team was shocked.They never thought I could do that.So all I can say is expecations are set now............hehehe

Now did you understand what "A" stands, I take it for appreciation.Even Dr.Paul, congratulated me personally for my presentation.That was like a honour for me.Now enough of my trumpet blowing,lets getting into the other things.


Hey frens, forgot to tell you that we got our HP laptops.Its one sexy lappy.It costed us around 55k, but I felt its worth that.Now that we got our laptops we were supposed to put more effort and do more assignments.
Financial Accounting course has started and Dr.SuryaSekhar from US is making sure that we understand GAAP(Generally Accepted accounting principles, accounting style in US).We have worked on may balance sheets of companies like CISO,Intel and GM.Its very interesting but at the sametime confusing.5 classes and we had an exam, I did well and my balance sheet balanced well but with a wrong amount(effect of ENRON discussions).I was little relaxed, and it was saturday.
Alreay our group guys started cribbing sessions and it made no sense in not going to a pub. We went to a place called "DIESEL", pretty decent , with decent music.Had loads of fun, head-banging, virtual drumming and back to home.
Sunday morning, at 8 macroeconomics class .................................
