Project- Not Bombing Again Part I

Aditi (Adi)
Shiny


Introducing- Adi & Shiny .........

      So well, a good part of yesterday was spent in coming up with a foolproof plan to 'exceed expectations' in my 2nd term exams- which incidentally are just around the corner. Project- Not Bombing Again was launched with much fanfare and high hopes (read previous post for details).    

      Still struggling to find time for Project-NBA.  Caught in the middle of assignments, project work, group presentations, simulation, and what not...and if that were not enough have to finish a short story for HarperCollins story writing competition by 14th (somebody plsss kill me). By the way, the story writing is for
romantic genre- need i say more :D. I am having a ball of a time penning this one, trying to use cliches to make up for my lack of imagination here (seriously)...so there are phrases such as - "she felt a rush of emotions as their hands met" (use sultry voice for better effect)

      ANYWAYS...coming back to the point. Our 1st term exams were quite a reality check. Some of us were left badly scalded from the experience. (must put in a word here about the scums who come out of the exam hall whinning about not having done well in the paper- and then end up scoring the highest marks or so. take your theatrics elsewhere, people! we dont need you in our group)   
This post features two special personalites of my batch - Aditi and Shiny, who I trust had a genuinely  dreadful experinece in our last exams.

     Any mention of Project-NBA is incomplete without the two of them. They are both quite a phenomenon, individually, and yet they decided to unleash their combined power on us, together. How kind! My MBA experinece wouldnt have been half as much fun without their comic presence.

      I have gotten into the habit of benchmarking my efforts against theirs- so if Adi & Shiny have finished an assignment, then you know the water level has crossed the safety mark for sure. Now that Adi & Shiny have started studying for term 2 exams, its high time i began so tooo. 

     Shiny shared the details of today's International Management  case with me in ten mins flat...that too in Arabian Nights format- goes something like this- Once upon a time there was a not-so great-company called Komatsu/Kimberly Clark etc.....that faced many troubles to survive (and the flow continues).
Its definitely an interetsing style for case studies. Adi would agree, she gets her best sleep when Shiny is reading out cases to her!

enough of goofing now...gotta hit my books....Project-NBA doesnt seem to be heading anywhere, ugh!

ps- pls dont be fooled by the calm, serene (sleepy) looks of the two in the pics above.....its the lull before the storm.
