Batchmates
All right, acads and extra currics will continue. But friends last for a lifetime. And as always i cannot resist from doing a character cum behavorial analysis of some interesting people I have met in FMS so far. I shall only be writing about a few in this post, and about those with whom I have interacted with multiple times. I would request everyone to take this post in a light spirit. Here I Begin.
1) Shashank Prabhu- The Doc Mod. The sole doctor of our batchmate, and was my room-mate for about one month. Quite an optimistic person, decent motivator and loves inspiring others. Doesn't really like studying much[who does :P], but is involved in many things. Is definitely a big foodie and loves entertainment. Favorite pass time involves talking on the phone for hours at a stretch[okay, am exaggerating a bit over here :D]. Has many other qualities, but this is all for now.
2)Mayank Rajput- The Official Spammer of the 2013 MBA batch and one of the most chilled guys around. So chilled in fact that he doesnt think twice before dozing off in every single class[literally]. While most of us struggle to get 4-5 hours of rest, this guy manages some 9-10 hours of sleep daily, and still feels sleepy in class. Jokes apart, Mayank is a great buddy to hang out with. Always cheerful, smiling, caring about others, loves to hang out in groups. Of course he too doesnt like studying but still manages to do every task that is required. Plus like me, he is an anime cum manga fan, blogger, entrepreneur in waiting, etc etc. Keep rocking dude..\m/
3) Neha Kapoor- Dont know how to introduce her. Let me give a try. Sincere, hard working, cheerful, loves to interact with others, always enthusiastic about her work[can be anything]. She is definitely one person i can rely upon for anything. Especially when I myself am in a low mood and need some motivation [ :-/ ]. I may have even dropped out if it werent for her advice. She is definitely very focussed in what she wants to do. Though i wish that sometimes she would relax and not take things that seriously. :D
P.S.- Neha, you are still to write even one post.. x-(
4) Aastha Sharma- She is one cool dudette. Popular, witty, smart, and I can keep on adding one adjective after the other. She immediately gels with people and is incredibly helpful too. Ready to lead when required. There is no need for me to say that she will be a great manager/leader.
5) Tapish Panwar- one cool dude. You can call him hunk or stud or anything. He has 5 years of work experience yet looks as young as a fresher. He has a pretty decent personality, and always remains calm[I have yet to see him get angry even once]. He is also sincere is his work and definitely has the capacity to lead and do big. He just needs some more inspiration, thats it.
6) K.S. Preeti- Some people refer to her as the God of Ppts. Any ppt she makes is almost certain to win a prize or make a big mark. Apart from that, I feel that she is an absolute genius. Whether it be group tasks, or assignments, or even stuff such as quizzes, Preeti ji is always one step ahead. But the best part about her is that she is a great person to interact with. Incredibly helpful, ready to take any initiative and also quite caring. Such a blend of intelligence and magnanimity is rare in most persons. And she has been to Japan.. :-( :'( [jealous]
P.S.- You still havent given me the treat ;-(
7) Syed Ashraf Hussain- Arguably, one of the best speakers in our batch. And also amongst the most enthusiastic. Extremely passionate in whatever he does. Has a plethora of hobbies from reading urdu shayari to writing poems. Also has an extremely wide knowledge base. Once he starts speaking, it becomes hard for him to stop. :D An infosys person with decent work experience and a person who is very likely to become a top class manager in future.
8) Divya Gonnabathula- Perhaps the most sincere person in our class. Helps everyone starting from completing assignments, to study sessions to bus timings to everything. Divya G, as we like to call her is one heck of a person. You will feel confident every time you interact with her. It is the presence of such people in our batch that makes FMS feel what it is. All the best for the way ahead.
P.S.- Itni tareef ki, ab to treat banti hai.
And do not worry people, many more profiles yet to come. There are 220+ rocking people in our batch, each one having their own special characteristic. Lots of analysis left to do. ;-)

Induction
Okay the induction process is officially on its way, and its increasing pace with each passing minute. Judging by the fact that I am typing this at 2:53 am, I can safely say that I have learned to decrease my sleeping hours, the first step towards becoming a succesful manager.. ;-)
Jokes apart the last 48 hours have been fun. A bit hectic yes, but enjoyable nevertheless. Seniors have been quite helpful. To maintain the privacy of the Induction event, I shall not be saying what exactly happened but yes it was definitely something new for me. Hopefully I learned something too. :-)
Now its time for me to hit the sack, catch you all with another update later.
P.S.- Classes begin officially tomorrow :)

Campus Allocation
Am back already with an update. I have been allocated Section B, which is the South Campus[SC] section.
However, our batch shall be doing classes in North Campus for 2 days in a week. The other two batches shall be having classes at NC. I agree this sort of arrangment seems a bit weird and unexpected, and I was initially a bit sceptical, but I am sure I can work this out, along with my batchmates. :)
Classes officially start from Monday, ie 4th July, but we have our registration, etc on Friday, ie 1st July. Am excited to start. :)
As for accommodation, I shall be going to SC tonight to search for a flat/PG. Shall meet two legends from Pagalguy- the Doc Mod Shashank Prabhu and the_BMR Ranjeet Pratap Singh. :)
Thats it for now, stay tuned for more updates later.

FMS
This blog has been made for the sole purpose of describing my MBA life at FMS Delhi, for the session 2011-2013. Correction - it will not be just my life, but the life of my friends and the people I meet here. I shall be writing from a first person perspective and be rest assurred everything I post here will be completely facual, though the thoughts and judgments may be just my own. I admit I am no great writer, neither am I very consistent at writing, but I will try to give my best here. I am also aware of the fact that life at FMS will be tough and rigorous and that I may not be able to post on a regular basis. Nevertheless, whatever the situation arisis, I will keep posting updates from my side.
Note- This blog is NOT about how to get into FMS[reminds you of Chetan Bhagat from FPS?]. Neither shall I be giving any tips about cracking the FMS entrance test. However feel free to contact me for any valid reason and I shall try to reply back.
My facebook id is Facebook
My other[primary] blog: Battles Are Forever - Am not shutting it down, but will be less active there.
Regards,
Satwinder Singh,
FMS Delhi,
Class of 2013.
P.S.- I hope you are reading this, Neha Kapoor :P
