Just hang in there a little more... a little more is what I kept saying to myself most in the past 12 hours ...
1 year is about to get done in my B-school life and I can give you an hell-yeah if you ask me whether it's one heck of a life.. Standing past all the squeezing of the classes with whatever minimum knowledge I gained here(hardly if any!!) mostly about keeping my eyes wide open from soporific lectures and getting to the 8:30 class on time even while I woke up by 8:20. These have been good experiences and learnings to lead life.. :P.. But the recent irony being the Institution testing the knowledge I gained from the past 1 year of academic courses I've been through, is the reason for me to come back here again and write my latest and most enjoyable experience(at-least for you while reading) I had in the recent past.
Leading a typical life at a B-School where you hear from your seniors what are the various ways and means Staffs and profs can carry to make sure you are lost in the sea of confusion and distress, the method that we heard more predominantly was the concept of Viva, where the staffs test your intellectual knowledge and application skills of the conceptual information that you have gained from "the conventional method of making a group of unique goal oriented individuals gather at a common place and give an oral presentation intended to present information about a particular topic mostly used to convey critical information,history,background and equations"- In short classroom lectures. The above three lines where just to give you an overview about the way in which you have to speak in a Viva so that no one understands what S**T you intend to say.
The much awaited Viva was scheduled to happen over two days in a grand manner when individuals shall be invited into a room filled with four legends(certified masters of querying AKA staffs), where even before you realize how happy you are to be in the presence of these learned people, they start tightening the screws into your brains. In the meanwhile your brain gets tightened and goes into a switch off mode a few minutes after the procedure has begun. I was one of the unfortunate souls(the decision which I changed later) who ended having the morning session of the opening day. The hard work and turmoil began then&there after seeing the mail of the scheduling.
Finally the time came when I had to choose the panel which will conduct the viva for me, for me my luck was with me when I chose the panel - The easiest and not much strict staffs panel is what I got, the panel which was believed to be the soul saver for all of the students who entered in there. But the saddest part was that the lucky charm that was with me until I entered the viva hall took along with it my brain's power to think.. Believing that the panel would be my soul saver I missed what lied in the middle of the word Believe..!!! It all went well with a brief intro and some chat, then, I realized the fact that I had forgotten my brain just outside the door only when they asked the first question from Marketing..!! And all along the Viva I started saying to myself - Just hang in there.. Just hang in there dude... You will get one question that will turn your day on and finally that question turned out to be "Will that be all??" . If you still won't believe my statements, I can reiterate the last question they asked me "Please, just frame your own question and answer it then leave" When I left the viva hall I again started saying to the dude in myself "Hang in there buddy there is always Viva V2.0" .
And if you in case want to know the reason why I don't believe myself to be the unfortunate soul, just imagine this "You see two movies and writing your new blog post, while your roommates and neighbors are banging their heads hard so that they don't want what happened to you to happen to them 24 hours later, believing BELIEVE in hardwork without knowing the irony in the word Believe".. Kickass isn't it???
For all those who had and are going to have this same experience "Just hang in there buddies, the same way I am hanging here" :D
