Life took a full turn in these two years at least one aspect will be similar to life before IIM, “working for a firm”. Life at IIMB had everything fun, friends, stress (lot of it) and sports (especially late night badminton sessions). I am not sure what I enjoyed most during these two years, being with friends, those competition filled badminton sessions, felling during exams that they will be over soon or the moments when exams got ever. Everything looks like a dream from first day to last day.
Friendship here was different in the sense that time spent with friends was limited to dinner, lunch, mess visits at odd hours in night and sports. This is different from undergrads in the sense that people generally spend time in their rooms. I am not sure this was effect of internet or IIM. Once I wrote about how competitive this place is and this feeling had grown with each day I spent here. Take sports, studies or whatever else everyone wants to be at top, this I think is a side effect of professionalism.
I am writing this piece after convocation so a mention of convocation is must. It was an special occasion for everyone present students and their families. Receiving the degree was such a moment that many of us don’t remember how we posed for the camera, did we smile or not, when we took it and how we came down of the stage. We all are waiting for the pics to come so that we can look in to that moment.
Between college end and convocation I travelled to Bhutan with friends. Nice place to be if you are not afraid of heights, although I am but then also I enjoyed being there. Tracking to Tiger Nest (TaktSang monastery) was pick of the trip. Amid the trip we realized that our ATM or credit cards will not work in Bhutan and then we found out that we have only enough money that we can spend one day less in Bhutan.
