Whirlwind trip...

Phew...
just back from a whirlwind trip from the silicon valley of India....12hrs to reach...12hrs stay...and 12 hrs for the journey back...had to report back to my office because it was the last leave day i had this yr....and so had to brush and freshen up after reaching the office...talk about dedication to work..
Now...back to the day in Blore...
Somehow...I have 50:50 thoughts of Bangalore as a city...this was the fifth time i visited the place...3rd time in the last 5 months...somehow...the love for the city is very short lived...
but IIM B is a different place altogether..just makes you feel that you have come for a morning walk in the neighborhood park...its lovely..the gardens...the trees...the greenery...
and the main building...the first thought i had was....it resembles something...something I know...but couldn't recollect...it was later a friend told me that it resembles Hogwarts.
Yes...thats the best 'adjective' to describe the main building...
its actually got staircases which lead to nowhere...and its so complicated inside...all the buildings seem to be interconnected...its not at all like the city just outside the walls...in fact...i saw a number of no smoking signs there...really nice buildings....and a very well designed campus...seems more like a place to meditate...Gautama Buddha would have found achieving tranquility here..than where ever he actually did...
just hope...that one day I can be a part of one of these hallowed institutions.....
Anyway...the interview got over and I was out of the place by 5....hoping to come back someday...and then it was another rush to get to the bus stand and catch my bus...which I did successfully...although the most common foe to Blore...the traffic tried its best to conjure up something or the other to stop me...but thanks to the 'autowallah'...I got there in time...
reached Hyderabad today morn...and here I am not doing my assigned work but trying something else.. :)
I cant wait for the results anymore....its just getting on to me now...seven more days to go...and seems like seven yrs in the waiting....
I just cant....but anyways....six balls...I mean six calls...and six shots...just waiting to see how many of them crosses the boundary...
But this weekend..i am gonna submerge myself in a pool of OH- ...I know that the next weekend I may be enjoying more...or i mite feel like my life's over....
have thought of so many things...I don't wanna stay where i am...and the thought of staying back after my IIM results makes me feel obnoxious....
Please God....I will be a good boy...I will be a very Good boy...just 1 IIM...anyone....You know how badly I want it...only You do.....Please...
