Why MBA ?

5 interviews done with and 3 more to go...... its a weird time to ask this question of myself (considering the fact that just one interview panel wanted to know the answer)..... I do have this rataa rataaya answer which i won't reveal (no not bcz its too smart, but bcz its too stupid :D)...... buw wht are the actual reasons ?
1. i know i want the knowledge..... I think i never was more attracted to a subject more than my frnd's paper on Public Policy (which had this question that i loved... "What was not included in NTP 94".. no it was not an MCQ :D).....
2. And i need the brand...... One brand (my engg degree) has not been enuf..... Considering the fact that i was never much of an engr, i had to get another degree.... but yes, if nething i do love what MBA entails... and i daresay, i already know a lot more than most MBAs.... yet i need it bcz i need to get into a McK or a BCG ... (i jus hope i don't give a GPL to McK a la Ronjon)

Somehow the journey is much more interesting than the destination.... Last yr i would have given my right hand (i am offering my right hand so that the-Hand-Taker thinks i am southpaw and demands my left hand instead, and thus my right hand is saved ... phew) for more calls..... one was jus not enuf... (For some it wud have been more than enuf :D)....... But then I had done nothing to deserve even that one call.... so this yr I slogged my ass out, and lo and behold, became a BLACKI..... but now that I am where i want to be, I am not sure I want to be where i wanted to be :D .... maybe an ISB MBA would have been better... maybe i shud have joined some other consulting firm and parked my ass in the US..... damn !!... too many options.... too many choices ...... Y was i a Libran !!!

and y this rant ? it was provoked by a question I had to mail an answer to - What would do in life if money wasn't a constraint ? and for half a minute I had no answer..... and that more than anything else has been my failing......

the dull throb in the brain

I have this ill conceived pre-conceived notion that i am smart and witty... in fact, online this could actually hold true..... i am a total nut case..... i have my own vaguenotions about life - no wonder i call myself vague funda.... another nicname i frequently use is fundaamental - a mental case who has some weird fundae about love, life and every other weird thing that is there in the world....

y brainthrob - its nt so obvious, but i tried to be inspired by the term heart-throb, though the relationship would be lost to even the smartest souls :D while a heart throb appeals to the masses, a brain-throb (hypothetically) should appeal to the more intellectual of the society :D....

and there is this dull ache in my head.... a throb.. (a physical sensation which Alistair Maclean held quite dear to himself)... and i want to get rid of it ? why is it there ? well.. lack of sleep could be an obvious cause... but then work, familial pressures, peer pressure and every other fancy pressure is at play here ... (did i tell you i was a anotorious conspiracy theorist?).... but maybe the greatest cause is my girl friend hu is on a "mini break" with me.... well... i don't understand what it all means ... (for even though i THINK i am smart, i may not be :D)..... but what i know i want to get rid of it...

the Japanese say that the only working solution to a problem is to eliminte the root cause... i am not sure the root cause would appreciate the solution :D .... so i'd rather rant and rave and chant to vent this throb..... :)

This blog is not a personal diary... it may act like one at times..... yet it would essentially be something more than that.. yet hu knows and hu cares :)

Supposedly the first post....

have beeen around for quite some time..... eeeeeeeksssssss........ 3 years in the blog world now !!!!...... blog reader, then blog owner, then a joint blog holder, blog reader, and now finally own my own blog... my own space... without neone else cluttering my world and my thoughts.....

i'll crib here... i'll rant and rave..... i'll be sweet.... i'll be irreverent...... i'll do nething humanly possible to get this dull throb outta my brain !!
