hello people, there's a news. Alok Vasudeva has started Blogging. Beware.Welcome Alok Vasudeva, heartily welcome you on board.Wish you journey over bloggerville. Enjoy.

It seems, my very raison d’être was very much true to the worldly wisdom before entering the straits of ISB&M, Nande. But now, I seem to be lost.

I can describe my self as another ordinary mortal, existing just for the sake of it. This ordinary gives the world its mere existence while some extraordinary might give it, its value. And that’s worthiness of being existent. I’ve lost total control of my being holier-than-thou; simply I can’t be ever again, what I used to be. And, I’m prodigiously lamenting for it.

I’m clear in my thoughts, would be a highly wrong saying at this point of time. Had it been the time of my leaving home back in June last year, prima facie I was pristine clear about my modus Vivendi.

And now, I’m stuck with this stark question “Now What”?
And still, at some ghostly hour, I manage to write this one just to resemble and restructure myself,

Time is the school, in which we learn,
Time is fire, in which we burn.
But time isn’t a frame, where we can shield our selves.
But yeah, time is definitely a mask, we can hide.


and I cry in hues of secret alphabets. I need more, be benevolent.

Let time make me camouflage myself and heal me. Because, the antiquity of time is the youth of the world. Some eerie thought process in me says, “I do believe, but can’t act”.
I’m paralyzed, I’m haunted. Heal me.


P.S.

I pray,
He who binds to himself a joy…
Amen.

Day's are passing, jittery mind and wrecking neck. Mind's not working, thoughts are jammed. Really don't know, what to do, where to go. It seems, raison d'être levy no weight in my life. Rather, it seems, nothing just exist in my life. I feel like' I've become a free wonderer who haunts from place to place where ever refuge he manages. Mind's totally blank, I swear. I'm feared off. I've become timid now. Help me people. I really don't want to waste my time like this.



P.S. - Today, March 21, 2010, was galloping my lunch in the mess with Sumit Mehta. And he just threw bits and nibbles of harsh words to me. Showed the agony I'm passing through. Asked me to wake up.

And I'm still, finding the answer. With a hope, to tell you a nice good story someday.

Adieu till now.

He is a true lover of you. He will simply go against the world to fulfil your wishes, before they arise. You ask him a glass of water; you will find a glass of juice. He will be always with you, whenever you need him, no matter how busy he is. Your smile quenches his thirst for love. You may be sleeping in your dreamland, but you never know that you are a dream for someone else. To let the stars come in your dreams, he may be holding the scorchy sun in his gentle caring hands.
Be careful and analyse who is your true friend??? Many people fail to recognize their true friends. Because some friends lack in expressing themselves.

hello friends,
everybody on the freeways, superspeeding with HR Share and Chain Act.
Chain Act is round the corner on coming sunday. so preparation is on it's peak. HR Share people working too hard, and I appreciate a lot to them. It's going to be a stupendeous event.

I thing I noticed, people are finding it too difficult to manage between classes and event work. I agree, it's too tangible to manage between both. one can either attend the class or can work for respective event. but not both right ? but see, every college organizes such events with some aim. at the end of the day, it's us who are getting benefitted by it. or say, college management organizes such events so that we people work an extra mile and learn something, somethign real world practices. obviously, no body wants to be a book worm or a bright sun inside the fence. these events are meant for exploring our skill and gaining something new. and this something is the good side effects that we learn during processes we do during actual practical work.

This is the right time, this is right age when we can stretch ourselves. We can go an extra edge, we can burn mid-night oil, we can work for hours and hours continuously, scraping all the rust from our mind and instilling some good karma. believe me, if we wont work at this stage, forget you can reach upto a position where the guest lecture people have reached. it takes ages to reach there, it takes years of butt-bursting efforts under a single roof to reach there. and here, we people crib for single single miniscule things. I hate this. i've heard, many people say, i have never undergone any strees in my life earlier, so now am feeling stressed, i cant work anymore, i dont know this, i dont know that. forget hr share, forget chain act, forget classes. shit. really shit on you people.

belive me, i'm critisizing you people and i'm not at all pin-pointing anybody. but this a general dictum of we all (even i'm included) and we need to sit under a corner roof and need to think "whats happening with me?", "what should i do to improvise my skills?", "where i stand and where i need to go?".

Ask yourself, an umpteem times, who am i?, and what am i doing right now, is it true to myself? see what others doing, ask them how can i do the same thing, practice and develop those skills in youself. Please don't, ever sit idle. this life has cut-throat competition, here there everywhere, and one can't, just can't escape from it. either you remain dull or excel. either or.

stand out, but stand tall.
stretch yourself. work hard.

Friends enjoy this Short story!!!

“I urgently need a girlfriend” a man said.

I said “What????”

Man replied “Yes, you have heard it right gentleman, I need a girlfriend, either now or never”

I questioned “But, why are you so desperate?”

Man: “I have done everything in my life, travelled across the world, enjoyed the best scenery beauty, all the expensive drinks, spent money on lavishing food, clothing. But I still feel that something is missing in my life.”

I inquired “Do you that this is the only thing left in your life?”

Man: “Yes, Yes and Yes…. My friends have their one and I do want a one. To be in society I need to have a girlfriend, otherwise what people will think of me?”

I answered, “Do you really think those people are actually happy or they just imitate to be happy. Observe carefully, you may restrict your area of happiness to a single person. Look towards your career goals. Aren’t they going to be affected by a single girl coming to your life. I remind you that you are actually asking to play the blind dart game. That’s why love is actually said that it is blind.”

Man: “So what should I do my friend?”

I consulted “Leave your desperation. Have patience. Be passionate towards your goals; and time will come such that your soul mate herself will come towards you, instead you running behind her”

Love,

Guys schedule is getting hectic day by day...professors are gruelling us like hell. Chain Act 09 (8th Nov) and HR Share (21-23 Nov) are coming and so most of us are busy with it. All these events are organised for two main reasons.
1. to interface college with the industries
2. to provide a platform on which we can play and mould ourselves

My say: make the most use of all these. increase your fortes, improve your fortes, try to find out where you are good at about which you might don't know and acquire new skills.

We, almost all those who are working day in and day out for all these activities, believe me these is just the starting. Right now, we are stretching our limits, going extra miles and improvising our mindset...all these things are surely going to help us in our future. take my words.

There were days when I used to complain about my schedule (during my engineering days and specially during my starting days of job at nirma) to my dad. but now, i never do it, the same again. I've realised, right now i'm 23, a young blood, i can actually stretch my limit, can burn mid-night oil and can remain unslept for 35-40 hours withoug a wink of my eyes. This is the time to do something, atleast something. If we want do work at this juncture, than believe me, winds blow too fast, paradigm shift rapidly and vanishes like smoke in air.

Today is the time to do something. Think, think again and do it anyhow. Be a doer.

Hey folks, this is Sam here.
I've started blogging, now see my magic around.

regards,

There's a difference when I used to post on this blog in erstwhile and than of today. Earlier I used to write a draft in MS Office Word, usesd to read it again and again, uncannily tring to find out any mistakes if I have made and tring to sort it out. And see today, understanding the realm, having time the scarce commodity being in MBA course, I juss type it down directly in the Posting area. Time matters a lot. Provided, onself utilizes the time in a fruitful way. That's not a common holier-than-thou verbatim, but rather a hard core truth of everybody's life. There are many people in my class whoes intellectual is really good, that means, they must have worked hard in mathematics and other subjects during schooling, but than has lost the tract somewhere. No doubt, they are good in personality, good in english, but really lacks in ethics. I'm honestly not at al pin pointing anybody, but rather started this post version juss to scale my self. Rather, i'm learning a lot from them as well, obviously positive vibes.

The topic chose, Depressed Rookie to Legitimate Competitor, is supposed to throw some light about the CHANGES that occured in me after coming to isbm. That is what is important to me and my closed one's.

This is the first post under this section. I'll keep on posting.

Ghosh...too many days and I have not posted anything over here. Shame on me. Seriously, I never dreamed of such a life, I'm passing through. I won't say, it tough, it's juss one needs to push oneself a bit more and one can easily achieve it. 

Some time I feel, gone are the days of creativity, gone are the days when we folks in engineering used to think and act weird, masti and goof-up, jagda-masti seems to be all over. 

But wait, life has juss started. Life has juss revved up and is yet to turn up in 6th gear. It's juss the starting of my professional career, where I'm going to fly with all the jubilient colours. Now the connection comes in, if I wont' work right now with full force, how m gonna work in corporate. If I won't be having good enough knowledge at this phaze, how would I manage myself later on.

But, the thing is, what 'bout my personal life. Which is too, of utmost importance. If I'm working too much, day in and day out, and not able to provide sufficient time for my family members, than damn of me. 

Challenge against me: I really need to learn time management, as to how could I distribute time for work and well as for familiy members. i.e. differentiating professional and private life. 

What I learned after coming to isbm is...Multitasking is the order of the day.

Au Revoir.

I am writing this to extend my deepest symphaties to all the isbmites. I am so very sad hearing about Ankita Mangla, she was such a wonderful lady.

I will seriously miss Ankita Mangla, a nicest soul, a humble bee, always carrying a smile on her face always cheerful and having the tendency of making others happy. I will surely miss working with her, her generous nature and working style and remarkable sense of humour.

I remember, on 25th July - on the very next day of Forza, a lot many people went Pune for fun and frolic. Even Ankita was on-board with us all. Every one were so confused about where to go...and finally Ankita finalised about Mocha. It was her, who decided the venue to rest on. She was so excited to go there. She was enlightened about going to Mocha. She was so happy, clapping hands and vibrating cheeks and flashy temple.

We all travelled in that Forza bus, and landed at some place nowhere. From that place, we hired some autos and reached Mocha. After reaching there, I found, Ankita is not with us. Gosh. 

I thought, might be she didn't sat in an auto or may be she changed her mind at the last second. Ok, what ever. Then, at around mid-night, we met again. I asked her, hey where were you ? and She shouted at me...you, you bhargav...you left me. I decided the venue and wanted to go to the Mocha, you ruined my plan. And she was on and on. Never gave me any chance. What a cheerful moment. Today I remember that, and my heart becomes heavy and eyes fills up.

For me, it's a saddned moment of grief and mourning. You have become an immortal Ankita. You are in our thoughts.

Wishing you God's peace. 

Amen.

Finally we paid the fine. My heart drenched in pain and my hand shaked when I handed over that 500 rupee note. The pain ran down my spine to my legs and earth went away. Every drop of tears screamed of agony and anguish. College Account office happily took away my money, as she was piling 500 rupee notes inside the drawer. 

All and all, I learned a lesson:

Never to repeat it again. Atleast not in ISB&M. It's a Sin, to bunk classes. And that too, a mass bunk. Be aware.

LIFE - "what is that now?" I don't have one, anymore.

Late night work, with neck wrecked and spine crunched. Classes aren't there anymore, there're only corporates now. One eats, drinks, sleeps corporate life.

But none the less, the experience is fantastic. One gets a chance, should always give it a shot "for sure". That's it, I'll be back in days.

Hey Sec-b folks, this is your CR, barking at you.

No food, no sleep, no masti, no fun. All for you. Juss getting screwed at next moment, sacrificing my life for you people. EVery now and then, some body calls me, asking me for the classes, for schedules, assignments, et al. Always need to hear scum words, when ever i need to announce extra classes or assignments. Always being called by Avneesh Sir for different announcments and for the compalaints of the classmates. that's all for now. Will surely come back, back with a bang.

I love you Sec-B.
But CR job, sucks !!

ohh what i wrote...i wont be getting time 'coz i'm an ISBMite. Shit happens, you know. So I'd do it right here, right now. Life was never the same for me, as it is for me now. Gone are the days, when i used to fly high in the sky like a dove and used to wander in the night like a nightingale; used to enjoy in leisure time with my friends, chatting till wee hours; till the day of addressal arrived. The dawn broke and the sun rose in the resplendent valley of Nande, there was commotion in the Audi, my MBA life reved up. Saris, formals, hours of listening, hammering of lectures on absurd topics, i was like an alien on the planet.

Since the day I entered this college and then today, I'm like an island of prosperity admist an ocean of poverty, like a dove tied with the manacles of tyranny. I'm no more a free flying bird, that i used to be. My freedom is shackled, my thought process is subdued, and i feel like i'm surrounded between agony and lapses.

And I pray, there could be an angel with a magic wand and azure coloured halo rings, come down to the lush green valley of nande and free me, rescue me, escape me, take me away, far far far, far away to the orient.

After admission, i paid a flying visit of our college campus. I took some snaps, so posting them over here. Hope you'll like them.

















This is when I (Bhargav Trivedi) came from Mumbai and stepped out at Chevrolet Showroom, near the flyover and walked till this place. I even went inside for inquiring whether it's boys' or girls'. It was Girls. lol. Then i got a rickshaw onwards.

Hello folks,

It was,

22^nd Feb, 2009

Place: SNDT Women’s University,

Juhu Tara Road, Santa Cruz,

Time: 7:58 A.M.

It was two minutes to eight, and can you believe it, I made it to SNDT University, Juhu Tara Road, Mumbai. Alas! I had my GD/PI there. Albeit, I had had a quick round on the previous day (i.e. on 21^st) to SNDT Women’s University, just to have a look at the location, how to reach there, and all that.

Wow, on time, a rarity in my life style, you see!

I woke up as early as five in the morning. I took bath, dressed up in decent formals and wore my all-time-great sports shoes. I just hate formals in my feet. I took my power bag and run-off to the station. It was 06:10 A.M. In Mumbai, I was staying with my langotia yaar, in Borivalli (E). On the previous day, I checked the train I had to board, which platform, then which number (Best Bus number 231 from Santacruz Station to SNDT) bus I had to take to reach the gd/pi location. I was just curious.

Juss near the Ashok Van flyover in Borivalli (E) or say southern tip of Dahisar, I took an auto, on meter of course. Now there was a problem; a big one. I was unshaved. I didn’t had a razor with me, nothing at all. Now I can’t even dare to think of some barber shop to be open at such morning hours, but at least a medical shop, so that I can buy a use & throw razor. That razor, I will use it in the wash room of the venue, where I’m going for the gd/pi; I thought so. So optimistic I was, you see. Pathetic, actually.

Mélange of apprehensiveness’ and timidity was my condition, as auto-wala was driving so sluggishly. And I was, with danger-in-my-eye-condition, looking on both the road sides desperately to find any damn shop open. But, no success, I was almost gone. I was dead. Found many dairy vendors doing there regular work at that hour, were of no use to me. Auto taking turns after turns reaching the final road towards the borivalli station, I stand no chance then. And, Voila!!! There was a medical store open.

“Stop, Stop, Stop!!!”, I barked to the auto wala.

“What happened?”, he replied.

“Nothing, wait. I need to buy some medicines. It’s urgent.”, I lied. I don’t why, but I did.

I bought a use and throw red coloured razor (which I still have) worth fifteen bucks and hoped on auto again. Reaching borivalli station was a mess. Buying a ticket in such rush is a cumbersome job. Such a big line, but then, bought a newspaper and was reading it while standing in that fucking queue. Got it worth seven bucks for Juhu and then went over-through foot over bridge to platform number 3. I juss reached there, and a sub-urban train came, I hopped in.

May be, it was first class, I didn’t noticed earlier, and so I got a place to sit. No worry on my face, no expression, totally involved in reading that shit newspaper. It was the only soothing I had at the time. May be, I was juss relaxing my self. Never knew when the destination station came, I stepped out and then started walking out of the Sanatacruz station.

Suddenly, I saw a kiosk open. A barber shop. I stopped, instantaneously.

I thought, I’ve a razor, I can do the shaving in the wash room.

But, what if, the wash room does not have a mirror? Gosh.

So, without any second thought I took right turn and ventured into, fervidly. He was a mallu. A South Indian. A Big Pakkau yaar. Panchat hi kar raha tha, and took almost 20 minutes for shaving. Ass hole.

It was 07:30 by then. I was clean shaven and walking towards the bus-station, outside the sub-urban station to catch bus-231. I had seen the station the previous day, so started walking in the right direction. Standing at the bus-stop, was like standing at the pit-stop. Bus never came, and it was thundering me from inside. I took an auto and asked for SNDT. He took me there till the gate. On meter, showed 15 bucks, I gave him. He returned a rupee coin. So kind of him. And I entered the University gate. I started walking to the main block of Janki Devi Bajaj Institute of Management Studies. I traded the path with and personified ease. When I took the final turn, I saw three ISB&Mites in blazers.

I thought, standing outside, why? Must be, koi aaya nahi hoga. I must be the first one.

Crossing them, I thought to bid Good Morning, but I didn’t. I entered the foyer. Gosh. There were so many sitting on well place chairs, all silent. Almost all turned their faces to notice me. And I could see, I was just a face in a sea of faces. If I have to get into ISB&M, I’ve to beat them all.

And I approached the registration desk with brisk steps and light smile on my face. I had conviction in my walk.

Right now, I’m hearing Dream On, by Aerosmith.

Dream on, dream on, dream on,

Dream until your dream come true.
