A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H

After reading through the countless (and exceedingly hilarious) X.0 versions of Mumbai meets I was almost hoping to walk into chants of "Smack-Deee... Smack D" as I would enter the campus. Is it surprising then dear watson that the bloke turned out to be the most gentle, and chweet and chubby guys you'd ever come across !! Or maybe my opinion may change yet again as he unravels over the next few weeks.
Time sure flies. Once upon a not-so-distant time we were all in the same boat with the same "fears and expectations", but today how mercilessly the world has divided us into sections and study groups gunning for each other's necks (healthy competition ? I don't think so). And all that to what avail ? When the result is such a foregone conclusion - 4-3-2-1, section F is number 1 - and yet it is so sad to see 7 other sections trying to change the inevitable.
For the casual reader who might stray into these fjords someday, Co2010 is "divided" into 8 sections creatively labelled A to H. We have our chants (of which the best of-course is 4-3-2-1, section F is number 1 !!) and our traditions (sans G and H of course which are NK(s)OTB)
We fight in the fields chasing balls, we fight in the khemka audi over quizzes and we fight over all forms of art trying to prove we (section {Xi}) are the best...
Its been a joyride so far. After this O-week, there is a week of pre-term, then 6 weeks of term and then another 7 such terms. Going by the "gyan" that's been downloaded onto us in these 6 days, we would all probably hate the fact that the earth takes just 24 hours for a full rotation over the next one year !!
anyways, a big disclaimer for all reading this blog - you can never get the full picture of what ISB is just by reading blogs; coz people who really do the cool stuff on campus, very rarely blog ! So only hope for all you non-ISBians out there is to try and get to ISB campus, preferably as a full time student, and experience the zing from within.
More, later... the light in my student village (4) has already gone on-and-off 4 times and I want to be deep in sleep by the time it happens for the 5th time !! (teething troubles they say, duh !!)
