2007.. A year full of happenings !

2007 …
A year full of happenings!
Good, bad, n yes a few ugly ones too..

Lets not get into the ugly ones..

I started the year 2007 on the best note possible.. Got into one of the better B-schools, n went to Singapore..

Back to school days.. Frankly speaking, I hardly cherish any memories from my schooling life.. But this was great.. 97 new friends! I really enjoyed company of each ‘n every person in my batch.. Learnt a lot of punjabi words, thanks to my roomie (big brother) Anurag aka Paaji.. :)

It was always great being with him.. We Celebrated a lot of booze parties.. everyone was invited.. Celebrated all the birthdays that fell in that period.. Didnt bother about the next day quizzes, exams, presentations.. One of the best ways to gel with people..

Had my share of tough emotional times also.. It took me some time to get over it.. It was good that I was not in Pune.. Was constantly under pressure of studies.. So didnt have much time to spend for this.. Havent met her after that but I just wish good luck to her for the future.. its not easy to get rid of some memories.. but not impossible also.. for sure..

8th wonder in the world happened n we got a clear 4 day off in Singapore sem.. wallah !!! Explored the small town of Bintan in Indonesia in those 4 days.. Its beautiful!!! Must visit for every beachlover..

There was also an animal called “SGP” which I had to tackle with my 9 brave friends.. SGP is special group project wherein a group needs to do some project with local company and do some business value add for them.. Somehow we managed to get over with that SGP stuff.. we struggled, we stressed to limits (beyond limits actually).. But we did some great stuff.. Got appreciated by the company and by school as well..

With a sentosa party, the singapore sem came to an end..

Dubayyyy.. it was time to rock in Dubayy then.. came to dubai in june when the temperature is at its peak.. say 50 degrees odd.. but that gave me the true dubai flavor.. Akshat, aditya, joy dada n saini were my roomies for dubayyy.. but yuga n surabhi used to spend more time in our room than their own room.. equaion was yuga joy but surabhi was used to do tp only..

Did lotsa timepass in Dubayy.. movies, outings, n yes skydiving.. Wallah ! cant forget that thing ever..
Our dean agreed for submission of our final project report rather than a presentation.. so we were totall chilled out!

Dubayy episode also came to an end..

Had a great time in UK n swiss.. met old buddies, remembered some great times again, laughed like crazy.. all in all, had a great time.. :)

Finally reached India via Dubai on Dec 27th.. Spent abt 2 wks with family before comin back to Dubai..

Happy new year, guys :)
