And they all fall apart ......

There are about 10 days left for my MBA to get over and by this time the ticket bookings, shipping books, last minute exodus to places left to vist have started to be in limelight and studies are on the back burner.

For many of us this is gonna be the last time we are in a B-school, for some of us who aspire higher goals in life - may be this is jus an intermediate stop over - however, whatever this be, none other time in our life's we would be able to see ourself as 'kids' enjoying ourselves at a B-school ...

Unlike a school/college, a B-school is a place where you meet people who come from different background, different walks of life, who bring with themselves something you didnt have in yourself and thereby offer you loads of learning - whether good or bad is immaterial. Essentially a B-School is never about the technical knowledge you gain, its about people around you and what you learn from them. The point being, you learn more about people than you do about ur stuff, and may be thats y MBA's become good managers... About myself I would say has been a similar case -- if someone was to ask me what all did you learn in this MBA -- I would say - "I Agreed to Disagree" and this line sums it all up for me at this B-School.

Also unlike a school/college, a B-school doesnt help you gain too many friends, may be because of one's pre-concieved dogma's, however it certainly helps you build a lots of acquiantances. Whether it be a friend or an acquiantance, a person when leaves you ... your heart go out to that person - You wish him all the best for his future endeavors and hope to see him one more time in your life ... similar is the case with me ...

Soon a day shall come when all 129 students (including me) of my B-School shall fall apart ... all goin their way ... trying to achieve their own goals ... trying to touch their sky ... I wish them all the best !! ... world is a small place and we always meet twice ... aur dosto Zindagi Rahi toh phir milenge -- Rab Raakha !!
