I’ve been finding it really difficult to maintain this blog. Not that there’s nothing happening in my MBA journey - on the contrary, there’s too much on right now…
Application for the LBS-HSBC loan: its just too much paperwork!
Planning the UK student visa (which can’t happen till the loan does…)
My last few days at my job – I [...]

I’ve been away from meaningful blogging for some time… have been trying to gather my thoughts, and think about my life – past, present & future! Why?
B’coz I’m faced with a giant step (only for me ‘n’ my family, no ‘leap for mankind’ stuff here) in terms of family, career, and other bits of personal life. Should I [...]

I dinged Columbia!
They were taking too much time with the application, so I withdrew from the process – so thats one less variable for my decisions. Though I am still not sure if I’m going for an MBA, I am now sure that if I do, I’ll take LBS over Columbia – even if Columbia [...]

Now comes the big thing – actually making a big decision in my life!
First decision point: Do I want an MBA at this stage? Now before anyone questions that this should have been the first decision and not the last, I agree. But being the ultimate procrastinator, I had pushed this

Every dark cloud has a silver lining…
I got my silver lining with all your comments on my previous post – it really helped me get back on track and look at everything I’ve gained in the last ten months (so many new friends & well-wishers in the blogsphere) rather than what I lost out on [...]

Okay, before you misinterpret… I have NOT been admitted to any of my awaited schools
Not yet anyway!
But I made a cracker of a start today – I resigned from my job and I can’t help smiling
Am I super confident of getting in? NO!
But this was long overdue*, and if I [...]

3/3 dings from my R1 apps!
1/5 (ie. HBS) in R2… but I’m still optimistic
ChiGSB calls have started, and though I’ve yet to receive one, I’d rather wait for 9am CST tomorrow before jumping to conclusions!
Next are Wharton (27th) and LBS (28th) – whatta week this is going to be
And Columbia is still to [...]

Some word-associations for the last fortnight…
Wait, Travel, Hectic, Wait, Friends, Tension, Wait, Beer, Campus-visits, Wait!
Almost 20 days since my last post, and one of my least-blogging months since I started this blog. I am now back in India after 2 weeks of hectic traveling, work and partying!

Completed my LBS interview [...]
