Results...aarrrghh...results!!!

So, finally all my interviews are over. Now, the excruciating wait begins. However, there is one piece of good news. I am certainly going in for management this year, coz I already have a GIM convert. However, the biggie is XLRI - fingers crossed for that one.

A lot has happened since I last wrote.
  • I had my first bike accident...nothing serious, but man, it sure is scary when you start aquaplaning and wonder whether your shoulder is gonna pop out again, after a good 4 years.
  • India won in Australia and the media promptly dubbed them as world champions.
  • We continued to suck at hockey, with Mr. Gill spouting out one idiotic statement after another!
  • Force India made a horrible debut, and the Iceman didn't have better luck.
  • Another one of my classmates (V) is tying the knot. Kinda makes me feel old. SSV will know what I mean!
  • The 'old' feeling is accentuated by the fact that in no less than 3 interviews, the interviewers had a hearty laugh at my expense, making wisecracks about how I must already be a 'manager' somewhere, or how I don't have a girlfriend!
  • I flew 4 times with Kingfisher and frankly, the air hostesses are not all they are hyped to be! I mean, it's like they are half a mile beauties. Occasionally, you may find one who is really pretty, but then a closer look tells you she's wearing those horrible coloured contacts! Eeewww!!!
  • I was convinced that Bombay still has the best public transport system in India, after visiting Bangalore.
  • I found a nice joint in Bangalore called Chicken County in Gandhi Nagar, where you get a whole Grilled Chicken for just Rs. 110! That's cheap, man!
More after the results are out!
