The journey so far !!

And yes, Continuing from where we left. This is Amritansh ( Incase you are new to this blog) and I have safely landed here at IIM Kozhikode for my two year Post graduate program. A lot transpired in past 48 days. There is so much to discuss and talk about. Ifs and Buts aside, I AM HAVING A TIME OF MY LIFE !!
I have written a piece on my first two weeks. It was for one of the blogging competitions. Let me share it with you guys here.


"Hues and shades

I am an engineer. I am a commerce graduate. A physics graduate. A doctor. I have been a lawyer, a teacher, and now I am a B-School student. I am a Professor, a librarian, a cook. I serve the students here.
It’s me. I am IIM Kozhikode!


/The word Institute is worth millions and heavy pounds here. Well, ideally how can you can put a value on such a multi-faceted and heavy spread out?
Do you remember as a kid you would make a visit to one of those amusement parks with plethora of rides to choose from? What fun was that! Do you remember how by the end of the day you would all be exhausted after taking the rides? Well that’s exactly how it is here. Except that we are no longer kids (although it would great to take those rides again) and that the rides here are symbolic  and fun.
The rides here guarantee that by the time you come out of them, all dizzy and goose-bumpy, you are well read, more informed, better thinkers and sound decisions makers.
What else?
Do you eat? Of course you do. How about ice creams? Of course you eat them. How about Chocolate flavored ice creams? Do you like this flavor? How about we add two scoops of it in a large waffle cone? Can you see already – a nice, crispy brown waffle cone scooped up with melting icy cold Belgian Chocolate? Sure you want a lick. Now wait a sec, think. Well, you have to do that a lot here – Think and Imagine. Imagine the ice cream man adding a delicious red cherry on top. This little extra is what makes Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode worthwhile.
The extra cherries are the opportunities you get here apart from all day slogging on your case studies. Do you debate? Do you sing? Dancing maybe? Theater is tough art, interested? Any sports fan? Do fancy a football match with professors here? Are you looking to venture out and start up on that idea that has been bugging you? I love writing,its therapeutic, how about you? Have you tried JAM sessions? Wouldn’t it be great to be in a mock IPL bidding?
Where do you think you find all this?

Well you know what I mean.
Going forward I shall introduce you to one such world. One that was nicely tucked beneath cliched reporting on IIMK. The world of Roobaroo. We shall see the side you rarely get to audience at a management school.

Till then, adios. See you on the other side.
Let the war games begin !(sic) "

How was it ??
Looks pretty exciting ..haan?..
Well I shall put up few more pieces here..going forward.

Till then enjoy these...
