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.
