Ajay - On the Road called Life!

Semester 3 is definitely lighter than the past two semesters, possibly because I don’t have admissions work
Have spent the last week interviewing juniors for the Corporate Communications Team. The interviews have been mini-ragging sessions in themselves.
Some members of the junior batch are really bad, while some were really good. This time the selection procedure [...]

Had originally planned on reaching college on 15th morning, however certain changes postponed my departure to the 19th.
The last few days in Mumbai were extremely painful as the day to leave draw close! Spent a good amount of time with Marise on those days
Set off for Pune at about 8.30am on 15th, got the [...]

Went out with Marise after work on Tuesday. We decided to go to Sheesha which is on the terrace of Shopper’s Stop in Bandra.
The place is dark and expensive. Food was good. So no complains.
While we were there, the skies decided to open up and Mumbai got its taste of the monsoons this year. It [...]

Dad’s down for another day and when he is down, we usually set out for a father-son-on-a-bike-visiting trip. This time the destination was banks. We visited five banks in the area of Andheri and Vile Parle.
We also managed to grab some vadapav and sugarcane juice, both of which will be eternal favourites for any [...]

Can’t believe my last personal post was on March 4th.. Then we were just getting into the exam spirit and a lot has happened since then.

I’ll be leaving [...]

Should have posted this a while back, but as usual original posts coming out of a budding MBA student can be rare.
Anyway, I came down to Mumbai on 14th on college work. Our job was to interview an entrepreneur. The problem, he didn’t really have the time. So, this turned out to be a failed [...]

It’s been almost a month since my last post. And it just goes to show how tied up MBA life has kept me. Based on feedback from seniors this is going to be the case for atleast another two or so months.
A lot has happened since then, and I’ll just be summarizing a few of [...]

I had posted about how frustrating the entire application process for XLRI has been.
Yesterday my friend and I set out to buy the forms. She has called up the State Bank of India, Mahim branch which was selling the forms.

I haven’t been blogging about this, but for a good number of weeks we have been facing a severe water shortage.
This water shortage is strange because only my lane has that problem.
The problem has been getting even worse daily with even lesser water coming every day.
Today, I guess temperatures of all the people in the [...]
