ये प्यार की शुरुआत थी

पलकें नम , लबों पर आस थी
चैन कम, मिलने की प्यास थी
वक़्त थमा, चुप सी ये रात थी
जली शमा, ये प्यार की शुरुआत थी

दिल दहका, रुत ये रंगीन थी
मन बहका, वो इतनी हसीन थी
दिन खिला, शर्मा रही कायानात थी
हमराही मिला, ये प्यार की शुरुआत थी

दीदार हुआ, हया की भरमार थी
इज़हार हुआ, ना कोई टकरार थी
डरी बहकी, वो पहली मुलाकात थी
चहकी चहकी, ये प्यार की शुरुआत थी

मतवाला अहसास, बातों में कमी थी
लम्हा वो खास, साँसें यूँ थमी थी
सहमी नज़र, कुछ निराली बात थी
क्या थी खबर, ये प्यार की शुरुआत थी.

MBA Freakshow

So IMT Ghaziabad it is. 1 year of "hardwork" has paid dividends. But at what cost? No, this is not just a statement. Really, at what cost? 23 lacks to be very close.

Now the big question looming large in everybody's mind - why is Aashish Nag joining IMT when he can get much better? (By everybody, I don't mean the entire world and I am not making a point that everybody is concerned about me. By everybody I just mean the small bunch which is actually concerned). Now the much anticipated answer. I may get much better but can I? Probably not. Lack of dedication and too much indulgence in trivial stuff (chatting, CS, parties) makes me say a total no no to trying again. Call me pessimist, but I am just being very practical. Plus I hate my job.

Moving on to the next big problem. IMT being the amazing college it is, amazingly asks the students to choose their specialization before the 1st class. Now how the eff are we to know what is good for us. On one hand, Yes, I am good at maths; yes, I am fascinated by economic terms - shares, money, 'assets'; yes, I love excel. But is this enough to specialize in Finance. On the other hand, my friends say I am made for Marketing. That's it. I have no idea why they say so. I am uncomfortable talking to strangers, hopelessly bad in GDs & zero negotiating skills. But whatever. My friends know better. In addition to all this, Marketing is the flagship course of IMT. But again, 180 seats for Marketing & 120 for Finance.

Now, how in a sane world, can any sane man decide from the above information, which specialization is better. But insanity has always been my "repelling trait". Lets analyze.

Do I want to sit in front of the PC all day working with numbers on excel? ---- Yeah!! What's the big deal.

Do I want to go out, meet people, strategize and show off my PR skills? ----
Yeah!! Must be interesting.

Do I want to run away to the mountains and spend my life there?-----
Hell Yeah!!!!

Now if there is any sane man/woman who can help me take this very difficult decision, please leave a message. For all others who are in a fix after reading this piece, enjoy this song..
