Last few days…
The end is not near, its almost here!
With just about one more exam to go, one final project presentation to give, and about six-seven days left before I finally leave this place, I do sometimes wonder whether I will ever feel nostalgic about this place?
Don’t know the answer. Certainly, these were not the best days of my life. I believe that there are better things in store for me in the future. I’m an optimist! 
Meanwhile, we had lots of parties in the last fortnight - the most memorable of them was the Valfi without any doubt. Valfi stands for Valedictory function.
For the uninitiated, this yearly event that each and every hostel in the institute hosts is a celebration for all passing-out students. Just picture this, you are sitting on the hot seat, your dearest friends in last couple of years years are all gathered around you listening to the saga of your lifetime in IIT. People reminisce into the past and pull out any incident where you fucked up or got fucked and spice it up with all namak and mirchi. They share memories of good and bad times. All dark secrets of the person are thrown in the open. And, all these tales are chronicled to what is called the “profile”. And, all the profiles in a hostel are compiled in a book.
In short, it is certainly one of the most entertaining event of the year in IIT, full of unlimited masti!

See when I started blogging, you were still at Infosys and then you got into IIT to do your MBA and now you are a MBA from IIT. Time is running fast, All the best for your challenging managerial carrier in life.

Happened to stumble upon your blog today. are you in H12/H13? The year I passed out, I heard they were going to build that hostel.
I’m not an SJMSOM alum, but, somehow, am on the alumni mailing list.
Regarding my email ID, anyone who was in IIT when I was would guess my graduation year, department and degree from it. Try and guess that.
