While you are sleep deprived you hear you mind ask this question again and again .. ‘are we there yet’ just like you used to ask your mom on those long car journeys.
Well I can’t believe it but we are half way there.. half of the course is over. The feeling is of relief more so for survival than for anything else. We survived the 4 core terms where we had to do all the subjects, even those that we were not really comfortable with. Looking back it was a great chance to get a flavour all the different avenues we could pursue, from finance to marketing, from operations to public policy..truly was a buffet for the inquisitive mind.
There was saddness as we bid our section good by. I will no longer be sitting with Sec C (or section C). I spent the last 6 months with my class of 75, 4 hours each day and many more hours doing assignments. I got to know each one of them and our sections become our comfort zone on campus, something like our extended family. Some of the friends I have made here will be there for a long time.
Also last week was the last assignment with my Study group, the 5 people that i did all my assignments with during the last 6 months. We saw our ups and downs and went through at least 70+ assignments together, lots of late nights and lots of early mornings.. Got to learn a whole lot from each of them.. and off course those end of assignment outings to Punjabi Rasoi for a bit of Dhaba style celebrating ..it will be weird working with a new group come Monday.
We all move on now to our elective terms where we choose our specialisation. I haven’t fully decided mine as i think the choice of my subjects will decide that for me. Its exciting in a way, we will get to interact with more people and make more friends…adding to our ISB experience 
… Will keep you posted.
