Broken dreams....are good sometimes :-)

Its been more than a month something breathed in this blog...CAT results r out...and the verdict is in...
the dream of being in an IIM is still a dream..the unlucky number was 96.73, not in any way close to standard of IIMs.
But as they say life's all 'bout moving on..better luck next time.

Past six months or so has been wild...if i'am saying it wild..believe me real wild..cat preps and six strings ruined my
social life..everything gets utter screwed up when u cant get the right module time slots. When u realise that you have
to choose between what u want to b and the things u r getting for granted...hardly been to college entire sem..had very
limited contact wid frens and still wanted to keep up with my social life; and still yet to figure out was that worth?
answer to which is now impossible to reflect.

cat preps nd solitude for last 6-7 odd months made me realise that i'am no wiser then neone else...does this wisdom
makes me wiser??..

so the question is what next? As frenz often ask..abe kya decide kiya fir??!!
well thats a tough one...what next? the choice was between b-skools next to IIMs and CAT 08..to be very frank
after much of introspection i found that there was no choice at all..for past half an year or so had that wierd feeling..a severely acute desperation to be in an IIM..and it felt so right..so generously spirited..i don't want this feeling to go away so easily..
i don't want to be a person for the rest of life thinking "shayad ek baar try karta tou IIM me hota"..
so what this time i coudn't..I will get up and work. I will push myself harder, and will ensure that i will follow the 3 golden words
to success. Citius , Altius and Fortius. Hope that this time i'll snatch that last inch which i missed this year..
As someone rightly said "Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies."


meanwhile forgot that still there are lot of pending work to be sorted out..like need to rush some important project notes
before the deadline (abhinav will kill me if i don't),
and turning up for random gatherings( shael in particular :-)
and in the midst of all these, tell yourself that you want to really put in good effort this year..coz this year its now or never...
where in the world do you find the right frame of mind to do it - its going to be challenging.

CAT 08 here i come.
