The 3 months

It's been 3 months since I posted something on this blog. I did not have much to share with the rest of the world. A lot happened, but probably it held no relevance to world outside. Life was hectic enough, and was confined to the world inside the IIM. It seemed that I was just sailing through time and things were happening around me. Did horribly bad in academics, did not win any quiz or any other competition, got into Aircel (an ok type company for summers), organised Harmony Cup (for Bhavishya) participated in Index, a disguised marketing research fair organised by IIM L (non MBA junta, if you don't understand it, don't fret too much about it; I don't understand it either :D) and some more.

These were strange three months. They flew by, just like that. When I reflect on what I did in these months, I can hardly think of anything to which I applied myself truly. Oh, by the way, I got selected into Quizzing Commoners (the quizzing club of IIM Lucknow) as well.

I had new experiences wherein I learned more about myself and others. Not all of them can be called pleasant though. They did provide some valuable insights, taught me a few things here and there. I understand a few things I could not fathom earlier.. more on that some other time.

I missed some people, close friends, my room mates at Noida, but somehow was not able to get in touch with people. Life in these three months did not give much time to think, to reflect or even to talk. There was this constant urge to run away to some place where I could not be found.From what, I don't know. But, every time there was some pending task to be done, some deadline to be met, some assignment to be completed. I lost my cool a number of times, shouted at a few batchmates, avoided talking to some friends (for reasons even I am not sure about), hardly replied to non-official mails, and made a lot of friends and family members angry(for which they are totally justified). I am not sure what I was doing, but a lot of that should have been avoided. Maybe, I was trying to do too many things at the same time, and in the process I stopped enjoying my life.

3rd term will begin in a few days from now. I hope to rectify mistakes I committed in these three months, and be a little more sensible. A lot of things need to be done, a lot of decisions need to be taken, a lot is yet to be learned...and a lot of life is yet to be lived...
