And it is yet to sink in…
It has been over a year – one year, five months and four days, to be precise – since I’ve last posted here. And I’m feeling terribly guilty and sad about that. But hey, realizing that here’s a problem is half way to solving it. So, this blog is now officially being resurrected. And the non-functioning links have all been fixed. So everything is waxed and shiny – but expect more design and functional soon!
So what’s been up with me all this while: Well, I’ve finished almost twenty months at my first job as a Software Engineer at Atos Origin India Pvt. Ltd. And, more importantly, I’ve finally made it to the Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta (IIMC).
But, like the title of this post, it is yet to sink in…
Maybe sink in completely, if you want me to add that.
So, I will join IIMC in Kolkata on June 17th for the two year residential Post Graduate Diploma in Computer-aided Management (PGDCM), which is equivalent of a conventional Management in Business Administration (MBA) degree offered worldwide.
In short, it has been a wonderfully tense but generally enjoyable experience so far – CAT, the CAT result and calls, the GD/PI preparation that followed, the actual GD/PIs, the whole OBC fiasco, the final results and conversions! Whew!
I’m absolutely looking forward to all the fun and frolic, and of course, the insanely rigorous academic programme that the folks at IIMC have chalked out for us fuchhas!




No need to feel guilty about not posting for a while. This is your playground and you choose to play here when you want to. Blog posts that are churned out just because you fel “I have to put something up” generally suck.
So good to have you back here
And congrats for the IIMC admit. I suppose we’ll have to extract a humongous treat from you to make it sink in

The funny thing is, I do want to write, and there are these ideas and thoughts bottled up in my head. It is just that I’m a really lazy bum. This is the reason I feel guilty; but apparently not guilty enough, else would have written a lot of stuff already!
Thanks for all the wishes. A party is in order, yes. How about early June?

What’s a fuccha?
Is this some new slang term invented in my absence?
Anyway, congrats again, though I’ve said it before.

It’s ok, i go through the same thing. See something, think “I should blog this”. Forget / Change mind / Get bored / Give up.
C’est la vie.
