Gonna Miss You CHIMC :-(

Today only few days left of my Last semester and now my college is going to be officially over…. And then I am an MBA …. I dunno whether to smile:) or to feel sad:(…. But I choose to be happy :-)….

It was great experience being here at CHIMC…. Two years…. I learnt many things…. Now when I look back I feel….the changes… It’s the similar feeling I had when I graduated 3 years back… how time changes and how life keeps on moving without a pause…. People come… people go…. We laugh we cry…. Some really low moments…. Some really high…. Life is so beautiful in its own way….


In my last 2 years of MBA I met many people…. I was attached to many…. And worked and enjoyed with everybody I came across…. I discovered a different me…. More self centered, bad and self indulged me… And I improved as well in terms of public speaking, Managing organizing and so on…


All I can now recall is that first presentation when I was shivering with stage fear…. That first interview for organizing committee… those events we organized and clubs inaugurated under Sagar Sir…First Event I Coordinated ....Ecstasy-2011,Ecstasy-2012,Garba Night,X-mas,Matki-Foard.....those proxies… talks….. Hanging out at shopprix and spice mall every now and then….. Bunking classes…. Rehearsals… Practices….Improvements… Exams…. And so on…. Life was always fun and exciting here….


I have learnt very good problem handling skills and stress management Under ,Sumeet Maru Sir,Ajay Bansal Sir,Mayak Saxena Sir,Sandeep Atre Sir,Madhvi mam and many more….. How to meet deadlines ;)… by completing a week long assignment overnight… All those group tasks which compelled us to stay up all night with our gtalk on…. All those frequent semester exams….


These two years of my life were really good… I know what I have learnt….. I can sense the changes in me… I met some really great people…. I would not name all of them here but yes my Professors,PC Sir,Adiministration,etc….


My internship was like a turning point which gave me a very good exposure and learning experience and I really appreciate my boss who was not just a boss but also a strict teacher who taught us practical management lessons….

Apart from these Whole CHIMC people….. I met many who contributed to my life in one or the other way…. I was encouraged, appreciated, criticized and discouraged time to time…. But it always added towards my learning and helped me to learn and become better with every step…


I would love to mention the names of people who were always there for me… whether we talk daily or not and those who were always there for me as a life supporting system…. But I’ll not because I don’t wanna hurt anybody my skipping their name by mistake….. :D…. those who are special for me know this and understand this….


I feel that I am kind a detached soul…. But still I miss people from my past…. Places… time… memories… tears and smiles…. I can relate to everything I left behind…. And touchwood I feel blessed because whenever I look back I find my people standing there for me… :-)


Now, I am going to start with my professional life… I just wish all my friends and acquaintances all the best for their future endeavors… I hope to stay connected with you all…. God Bless you….


And I Also Need Blessings Of whole CHIMC team Akshay sir,Garima mam,Rakshita Mam,Isha Mam,Anirudh Sir,Kiran sir,Vijay Bade sir,Varshjeet sir,Vabhav Sir,Girish sir,and the whole CHIMC Staff.(sorry If I am skipping Anyone's Name but it dosent means i Forgot you yu are always there in my memories forever.)

I am Really Gonna Miss You CHIMC

CHIMC Life

Student Life V/S Professional Life

I wanted to write on this topic since long back but could not write coz I did not have that much fundaes to write about Professional life (I had some ideas abt professional life based on the feedbacks from my seniors but wanted to have some personal experience, anyways now when I am interning at CHIMC Indore so now I have some exposure to Professional life, therefore it’s the right time to write on this topic.. so here I go !!!) .

Lemme first start with glimpse of college life… College life is a really rocking in many sense like u start learning on ur own, understand the need of frnds in life, work independently, have some of the beautiful moments of ur life tht u wud like to cherish throughout ur life and the list goes on…

It starts with ragging session, then fundaes frm senior…One starts wid attending classes regularly but later bunking classes becomes habit…You have all those wonderful FRIDAY NITES and Parties which u r definitely gonna miss after college… You have times when u fight wid frnds and sometimes with outsiders and the frnds wid whom u fought come to help u…. times whn u have fight wid autowalas, watching movies (in multiplex as well as on computer )… There are times whn u have crush on someone (same sex as well as opposite sex !!! )…times whn u fall in love and 24*7 u only think/ talk abt him/her…u share ur feeling wid ur frnds abt ur happening/ non-happening love life…also sometimes u feel frustrated (coz of problems in personal life, academic life, coz of frnds, and sometime even coz of the reasons tht u r not aware of….)…. You have all those wonderful matches where u are the part of the team inside as well as outside the ground … u cheer the team …Mugging just before the exams wid frnds and somehow manage to get decent grades… and the time just passes by frm sec. to min. to hrs. to weeks to months to semesters to yrs and thn u r done wid all ur courses and graduate frm the college wid some degree and jobs with awesome packages (not always !)…

And thn u enter the professional life where life is totally different frm ur college life.. Now u need to be more formal and more non-casual(in dress as well as in all general things)… u cant bunk office like u used to bunk classes… u cant treat ur manager/ mentor the same way u used to behave wid ur professors.. u cant crash in the office like u used to … u have to be there in the time, u cant ignore projects with impossible deadlines, cant delay the submission of the reports, cant make somebody to wait just coz u did not finish ur work… u cant be involved in all stupid (Actually I dont want to use this word) activities tht u used to (elections, events etc etc.) coz u don’t have much extra time, and sometimes significantly lower pay compared with relevant peer group in the market. The list goes on ….

… Well frm all the description tht I gave here abt professional like reflects tht professional life sucks but thts also not true coz if I stop here thn probably I wont be looking at the other side of the coin… Career benefits include protection, sponsorship (open doors to follow ur dreams), exposure (create opportunities for visibility), challenge (provide “stretch” assignments) and coaching (teach and provide task-related feedback). Psychosocial benefits typically include role modeling (demonstrating behaviors, attitudes and values appropriate in an organization’s context), counseling (to explore personal and professional dilemmas) and friendship (caring and sharing in ways to go beyond work requirements)….Also one gets exposure to the industrial world…. U get experience and a chance to show ur talent or the medium to implement the things tht u learned in the college (if u learned anything !!!!)…..also u get the idea abt the things tht are rapidly changing in the world… be MBA in Marketing, HR Finance or any field.. u keep urself updated…. U gain lots of knowledge…. and apart frm all these u get money for the work tht u do !!! also u get the medium to follow/ chase ur dreams…. U can make ur future here and make ur life comfortable…. Its also true tht in professional life ur personal life is constrained and u become like a machine working frm 9-5( or even more thn tht !!!)….

By looking at the pros and cons of both student and professional life I can for sure say (Based on public opinion or may be I am biased (coz I am in college like IIM, Ahmedabad (IIM A) tht Student Life Rocks !!!

Cheers !!!

A Love To Die For

As she's been looking for the boy who wears the crown
In every public house and every corner of the town
Although she should forget the boy and make a start
The memories in her head replay the part (where?) she departs

And now she stands alone
In a hundred mile line
You know just how she'd love to have her love to die

Although her friends can see she she'd always play it down
She says she'll get her piece of mind, if she sees that boy around
Though time and time she'll tell herself the boy's no good
But truly knows the truth, she'd like to hold him if she could

And now she stands alone
In a hundred mile line
You know just how she'd love to have her love to die

And then one day she'll get the news
That he's been seeing somebody new
Right now she feels like she could die
All that is really not the end and just a moment in her life

How quickly life can catch you up or pass you by
He says that all the time and space to think has changed his mind
Dearest apologies for every time she cried
She tells him there's no longer tears, just water in her eyes

And for everyone alone
How the story will define
Cus' now she's no love left to love, her love has died
