A lot has happened since then, and I’ll just be summarizing a few of the main events in this post.

To begin with, we had our foundation course exams. Principles of Management is a sure flunk, and that’s the case of most of the batch.

My maths paper ended up with hundreds of silly mistakes and clearing this seems to be a bleak possibility.

The financial accounting paper was an objective one of which we got the results the same day. Passed!

The other papers seems to be a case of pass as of now, so lets see how that goes. Results are out any of these days.

Aditya wanted to pick up his laptop from his uncle’s place in Mumbai, so I accompanied him on a Monday. It was a quick stopover at my place to pick up more clothes. Our laundry guy is quite a pain in the neck and take a long time to give the clothes. I’ve started washing all my clothes including the shirts and pants by myself.

The next event on the list was Milaap. Milaap is the “welcoming” session that juniors throw for seniors. It is supposed to be a cultural event, something I keep my hands out of.
Was asked to design the online invitation and send it out to all the faculty and staff, which I did. Was then called on to bring the costumes from Pune. Akshat and Gunjan accompanied me on this journey. It was my first trip to Pune, though I didn’t see much of it. Got two whole years for that, though I prefer getting back to Mumbai if I have time.

Last week also saw our very first FCQ, which is a Fortnightly Conducted Quiz. All we are told is the date and timings of the FCQs. We come to know about the exam only when we sit for it.
The two exams were ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) and Basics of Economics. Got the result for the first today, scored an 18 on 20, which is a good start.

The Lil’ Mouse dropped in to say hi to me over last weekend, which was rather cute, since I haven’t seen anybody in Mumbai since I came here, except for the quick Mumbai trip.

I’m also in the Website committee working to rebuild the SCMHRD Website.

SCMHRD Life continues now. Until next time. Do comment if you have any experiences.

Went for choir practice yesterday after quite sometime. Picnic plans are being made for June 3, but by then I will be in Pune.

Received the email today with detailed reporting structure. I’m planning on reporting on 1st June. I hope I don’t have to do 31st May.

As part of the Foundation Course, I need to interview a CxO and an entrepreneur. I completed the entrepreneur interview on Friday itself. Had forgotten to blog about it.

Went today for the CxO interview. Had to travel to town and so set off around 10.30am for that. Landed up at the station in time, but spent 20 minutes standing in line to buy a ticket from a pathetically slow ticket counter. They’ve introduced computers to speed up things, but so far it has just been a major bottleneck.

Took a super-slow fast train to Churchgate and found the place easily. Finished the interview, picked up some coffee at Churchgate station to fill the empty station and caught a train back to Andheri. Found a bus standing outside so was home before 3pm itself.

Ordered pizzas from Pizza Way which has a 3pm to 6pm offer and has really economical and decent pizzas.

Have also got my brother to start teaching me basics of Accounts which I shall need for SCMHRD.

Yesterday, Dad and I set off to attend a meeting of his in Andheri West.

Have also been meaning to do an animation course and so dropped in at the office of MAAC. The course is going to be really expensive, so am still in two minds. However, it will enhance my already existing design portfolio.

And after the meeting, we went over to Fine Furniture in Andheri West to continue our search for a sofa cum bed.

Spent the rest of Monday at home.

A mouse came to visit me this afternoon and so had an enjoyable afternoon and evening.

And since my Dad is off early Thursday we finished the day with a Pizza Party, courtesy Smokin’ Joe’s
