again i have stuff to do and i dont want to.. dont know when will the time come that i do something i want to do.. but lets leave that topic away for a second..had some interesting classes today.. marketing was fun..(it always is unless your group is being cold called! :P ) learnt about fundoo stuff like pepsi succeding to make some inroads in market only when coke screws up.. for an ardent pepsi fan, this isnt the best thing to hear (though i dont know why.. i mean pepsi not having large market share wont change it for me.. but i guess thats what is called brand loyalty ;) ) also we learnt about some other ways to look at probs, some which if not told would never come in my mind.. :P
after that we had our IGP class which was about negotiations.. one of the rare classes where i did not agree with the stuff taught, though it wasnt wrong as such.. i mean the instructor taught us to be open and have faith in our counterpart while going for negotiations, which was focussing more on the moral aspect of negotiation.. again i wasnt sure how correct it would be because then in that case, you are opening up yourself for attack because the info that you give out might contain information which would be your constraint and your counterpart may use it against you.. again the moral thing is out there but till the time you are getting some info because of some stupidity of your counterpart and no fraud from your side, i think one should use that during negotiation..controversial, you take your call... :)


btw am still waiting..

you know your life has changed when..

  • your mobile phone has become a mere alarm clock
  • you go to sleep 4 in the morn and get up at 4 in the evening.. and undergo 8 hours of gruelling classes and quizzes in between those times..
  • a maggi is all u can have if you r feeling hungry anytime after 9!
  • you blog wen you should study.. and you blog not because you want to blog but just to run away from studies
  • group studies is considered more important than individual studies , though individual performance is much much more important than group performance..
  • after writing a blog you change all "u"s to "you"s and so on to get your "yanko!" english out of the system and get back to good old victorian one..

is it my life or me that has changed?? i wonder....
