Meeting....T2

Yesterday I could finally get to meet my long time friend SN aka T2.. :) Well..according to him I am T1. FYI T stands for --> Taku.. SN was my classmate in Engineering college and post engineering took a complete different direction. I hardly know any one who had the guts to reject an IIM call during college. Speaks a lot about a person's belief in his capabilities. BTW he is ISB R1 amit and future star placement of ISB :) Amen...

His first glimpse brought a smile on my face. He rightfully looked like Andrew Flintoff and anybody could mistake him to be a monk dressed up in casuals :) Anyways.. Most of the time we were discussing ISB and my anxiety about the DDDDD day... Well.. I am actually very anxious now. I just want it.. Accept or Reject.. Whatever is the verdict..... Well anyways.. one of the panel members was already sending me crude vibrations signalling my reject.. But then..we live on hope.. and its hope which has brought me to this juncture. ...

Well..then... after the dinner we went to CCD.. And for the first time I had hot Irish Coffee... BTW I forgot to emphasize that T2 was on a treat spree..was treating me at Pizza Hut and paid for all the transits..

Anyways.. CCD was good.. I did get interrupted by some stupid phone call from office where the only speaking I had to do was to call a meeting tomorrow. Anyways.. We discussed about R, his financials and his vision post ISB.

His belief in me getting an admit from ISB boosted my lagging confidence. Though my gut feeling is roaring that "you got a chance" but my brain keeps on negating that.. But... well.. I can only pray,hope, eat,drink till Feb 28th.. If things go the other way I will start to pray,hope,eat,drink and WORK again towards the very goal (=dream) to be part of ISB.

T2 rocks....

Moment... long awaited......

Finally the moment has arrived... Am scheduled for an interview with ISB on Monday.. Just woke up today morning only to realise that this would be a make or break situation..

When I was graduating out, I had started dreaming about ISB. But during the last five years i could bring sense to that dream...

Well..Got to work on my interview and hope to see myself as a R2 admit..:)
