Bye Bye 2005

Another year goes whizzing by.I look back at the year and the same thought comes to me again and again,of how time just flies by.

2005 was a little different from the rest of the years, I could very well term it special. For starters, I got into a b-school of my choice.The entire gamut involving CAT finally ended.No more mock-CAT's, leaving work early, filling up of forms,reading about b-schools in awe and most of all, shedding the 'aspiring b-schooler' tag.

2005 has been special,it's been a year that has kept me on my toes. The 1st 2 months were all about reading up on topics all and sundry in a bid to ace the GD/PI's of the various institutes. Getting a call from MDI early in March meant I spend my last 3 months at work on yahoo messenger. And 23rd June onwards its been a helluva different experience. No unsolicited gyaan about b-school life here, but just the experience of living away from home and having to fend for yourself.

There are people,lots of em, who've made my stay there special. No need to name any, if they happen to read this they will understand :)

More than b-school and stuff, I guess I have come closer to certain people here home in Mumbai. And yep, all this after being miles apart. People who I knew would always be there for me and a few others who have kinda popped out of nowhere...too bad I didn't make use of the time we guys spent in physical proximity.

As 2006 approaches, I am tempted to make resolutions by the gallons, but guess will just stick to the same one-try and be a better friend,a better brother and a better son. And yup, a better student too if time permits :)
