A New Year, A New Beginning… The Year 2011

// January 1st, 2011 // 6 Comments » // Collegium, Random Musings

The holidays make for a crazy time of year. You’re spending time with family/friends, traveling, maybe enjoying some winter weather.But its all over, its the 1st jan noon and i am sitting in Mumbai airport waiting for my flight to Bangalore, starting up with my whole new year and another semester, yes, i am in 2nd semester officially, results are not out yet, but still no one fails in BBM, which is the best part of it.

“Be better- Share more – Show up joyful” - This was the main aim i had in 2010, I think I was performing pretty decent whole year except that i made many mistakes in my personal life, as well as some mistakes in the work and college. Which i am totally not willing to repeat again, as life becomes hell when you actually realize that you cant overcome a mistake you have done.

“The Reality is – Change is the only Constant” - This is something which one of my teacher told me, may be she would be reading this post, but at that time when she told be i just overlooked it, but now i feel i need to change, there was a stagnation whole across 2010 in my life but now i need some ups and down, i need some change, change from the normal life, change from the normal work, change from the regular mind-set, now i am looking forward for some totally different things, not computer, not management but something totally random or may be crazy but which is not at all related to me till now, may be some social work, as this is something which i always wanted to do but never got a chance or may be learning dance, i am really bad at it but after attending the Shaimak‘ party i am very much fascinated with it or some sports apart from gym or may be something else, but totally different.

2010, was an upside down in terms of relationships, this was the year when i made most of the contacts, some as a friends, girl-friends( not girlfriends ) and clients, but what all i can say is made many and lost many , so fairly speaking this year no time waste and will try to maintain those relations as long as possible.

Also, as like many people are saying that the world has come to an end, i want to live each and every day as I’ve lived decades, because may be 2012 is the end..

Anyways my leg is paining like hell as while dancing yesterday i broke it. ): but thanks for stopping by and a Very Happy New Year, Njoieee!
Sincerely, Ishan Vyas

Learning The Game of Management

// October 28th, 2010 // 7 Comments » // Collegium, Random Musings

For as long as I can remember my childhood dream was to become a computer geek. A Hacker, to be more precise. I was eager to learn any language which might help me out to crack some code.

But now I turned to a management student, I’ve been studying Business Management for more than 3 months at Alliance School of Management, 1 month down the line I will be done with my 1st semester. After coming here I feel it is nice to grow up. To learn new and bigger things, to experience, to travel, to be inspired, to become rational, to live solitarily, to wash clothes, to cook food and what not, the most difficult thing for me, attending college regularly and more harder is to entering the class on time.

Now from past 3 months, I am going through series of sessions, which include, Business management, Economics, Accounts, Mathematics, English, Hindi & Business Environment. Two inter college fest took place in between this time. Along with this, frustrations of living alone from parents, trying different restaurants every day to find good food, making presentations, assignments every second day. Even two internals took place, in which i scored hilarious marks. Also if you take into account the fact that right now, I’ve bunked my additional language class, I’m blogging where 79 others are busy preparing for the university exams.

But I cant resist the temptation of telling you about my experience. Also telling you a few quotes, which I definitely wouldn’t want to forget. So here are they.

“Should I kiss you for that” – Our great HOD

“I will shave you ass” – A prominent professor, yelling on a student who was bunking too many classes.

“Bullshit” - a student said, when our HOD shouts he use this word, but when he heard “Bullshit” he said its not “Bullshit” its “Cow-dung”

“I will fight with you in the court of Law” – A prominent professor

“I know in and out about you, I’ve checked and approved your profile for getting into Alliance, you scored 46%”  – A prominent professor, contradicting their own college brochure which says that no one below 50% will get admission in Alliance.

“Bataiye toh” – An obedient Bihari student.

The college is full of fun, and now I am really grateful for the kind of people I have in my life. There are a zillion things I have learned – Bullshit. A million I have unlearned. They all taught me so much. No advices. No suggestions. Just by being themselves.

Now, i just love the i way i am

Atlast the college started… Yeyii..

RING RING… not another forward message, I thought as my cell phone vibrated. I checked and realized it was an alarm call. It was 7.30 am. My God, it was my first day to college. Welcome to college, I said. I got up and after hours of mulling on what to wear, I was ready. Walking for around 15 minutes were really very exited. Finally, I arrived at my destination, my new college. I was on time. I went to my class and the most the most shocking experience came in front of me when i saw that I was the only one in casuals and rest all were in full formals. The whole atmosphere was friendly but it took me more than an hour to make friends, but finally I ended up makign 3 friends, one from Delhi, one from Guwahati and one from Kerela.

After a few minutes, we moved to our main campus which was around a 25 minutes drive from our regular campus. There we went to a seminar hall and all the faculties, mentors and program coordinator were present. The first person introduced himself and gave a brief description about the whole institution and what we are going to do in next three years. Flowed by the lunch we have some ice-breaking sessions. I realized that some were from the science stream; with some others were from commerce background. As I wasn’t a regular student in 11th & 12th, I knew that studies had no link to me and I would have to start from the basic level. So I concentrated on each and every word, he said. The four-hour lectures made me realize that it was not just another three year course; it requires much more hard work. Less the time, more the amount of hard work would be needed… this was my first lesson.

Finally I, along with my one-day-old friends, left the college. On my way back home, I recalled my days in school and all the fun I had in the past years. Well now, it would be a different story altogether.. this course, I mean. Welcome to college, I said to myself.
