Happy New Year Everyone

To those rare people, who accidentally ended up coming across my blog:

Wish you all a very happy new year 2009.

2008 has been a tough year for most of us, but I am sure the year ahead will bring all of us cheer and fun times.

For those of you who have applied to B-Schools: Its going to be a tuf year (as applications are up everywhere) and I wish that you get all the luck in the world to get into your dream schools. I remember this time around in Jan2008 when I was in the beginning phase of a series of rejects from schools across US.
The final tally, in June, was: Admits (2), Rejects (6)

After some deliberation, I chose XL over NUS. Both schools are great. But the India factor pulled me to XLRI. It has been a great few months here, interacting with some really smart people (students and faculty alike). The MBA course has been a source of immense learning. The one thing I miss here is the support of my family, including my 6-month old daughter. This is one of the most amazing periods for any parent, watching the kid try to take their first attempts to crawl, make cute sounds and play. I miss these things much. Hope I get a chance to fly down next month. Will see.

Happy New Year !!!
