When IIM Bangalore Becomes Your Home - Why Do You Feel A Void?
I wrote this way back in December 2015. It makes perfect sense after Convocation. It is dedicated to all my IIMB batchmates. Do give it a read. :)

If you are a b-school chap, and at this time of the year you aren’t feeling hungry or can’t sleep properly, chances are either you are in love or doing a summer internship. “Regrettably", this article will be assuming the latter one as the reason and will try to suggest some pointers.
The society we live in distinguishes between failure and success, mostly in black and white. Taking an example from cricket, if you make it to the national team, you are a success. Your pictures would be marketed, promoted, decorated, garlanded, worshipped and sometimes, even burnt. However, if you rigour for almost 20 years in the domestic circuit, without a call from the national selectors, you are most likely to die in obscurity.
A new generation of excited B-Schoolers will be graduating this year. With optimism and high hopes in their hearts, as these graduates join the corporate world there are few things that b-school didn't teach you. They matter far more than your joining CTC and your position in the company.
One of the most powerful words in the English language is ‘possibility’. Just thinking of this word itself can give rise to hope and create options out of literally nothing. Considering that there is never a situation in life when everything is lost and nothing is possible, exploring possibilities can give rise to a powerful array of options at any point in time.
It has always been a pain dealing with Airtel Customer Service. I have a prepaid connection and 2 Internet 4G Routers. Until recently, I bore the brunt of bad service and even worse resolution of issues because I didn't have an option. I have donated a lot of money to Airtel despite their ineptitude. However, my recent experience with Airtel told me that Airtel isn't incompetent as much as it wants to con people of their money. This is the final straw. I am going to make sure I discourage people from signing up for Airtel and also ensure that people switch out.
From dawn to dusk, a perpetual smog-like haze is there to greet us when we open our window in Delhi. A few days back, the India Gate stood tall when viewed from the same window. These days, often it fades away.
Seems strange, isn’t it?
