Of Bschools and sleeplessness

I have moved from the laidback city of Hyderabad to the absolute chaos of Bombay. I'm a NITIEan now. Yeah its hitting me slowly. The amazing greenery is keeping me happy, but the humidity is maddening.
I arrived on the morning of the 19th. Ever since its been an amazing four days. I've met some amazing people, made loads of friends, played football, made presentations and business plans, shopped for pillows, slept for not more than 6 hours put together in 4 days and finally danced like crazy around a bonfire.
We had loads of events where we got to know each other and the seniors too. But the highlight of the whole thing was the inter floor football tournament. Our team was the "FOURTH FLOOR DESTROYERS". We lost to a beatable fifth floor team after they scored early. But this loss meant that we had to try harder as a unit and this way earned each others respect. I think us fourth floor buggers are the closest bunch of wingies among the juniors. The atmosphere in the Lounge (thats what we call it atleast, has three beds which are dirty) where we watch Euro 08 matches is always electric during the midnight.
Apart from this I'm also a member of the Tam and Gult gangs in college, its good to be multicultural I say. Guess what , after a finance case study that I did, I now know what mutual funds are, how stocks are priced and all that abracadabra stuff.
I'm told its going to be real hectic this module, so I won't exactly be able to blog too often. But I promise to keep blogging often. I'm now off to the Lounge to watch Spain v Italy.
PS: Two bits of gyaan that all potential b schoolers should know -
1. We're working on it
2. We'll get back to you
More later folks. Till then Cheerio
