Yukon Ho!!!

Oh well not Yukon but Quebec, which is where i am heading to. Sept 19th 2005 is turning out to be one of the most memorable days of my life. A day when i am feeling on top of this world. A day when i feel nothing can possibly go wrong to me on this day. Well the day did not start of on any kind of exemplarily note but , by noon today i got a mail from our prof that we were the team that is selected to represent IIMB at the international case competition going to be held in Montreal from Jan 3rd to the 7th. Details of the competition is here .
Well i had to bunk office on Friday to submit our analysis of Canadian Airlines for the prelims at IIMB. Well i guess we did do a pretty neat job in the end.

The entire trip is going to lighten my pockets by around 1 lakh rupees, but i guess it is going to be worth it. Hopefully i will get some assistance from IIMB or my company. Also if any of you out there want to sponsor my trip you are most welcome ;)


Apart from that my finance prof for the last quarter has said that he was willing to let me and another batch mate of mine to work with him on some project. Discussions to continue on that from next week. So all in all it turned out to be a super cool day.

Well as i was returning home thinking on how nothing could go wrong today , my bike had other plans. The front tire decided it was time to deflate my ego so it decided to deflate itself. Well i had to push my bike rest of the way home , almost 2 kms. Well today being such a wonderful day i have decided to forgive my bike.

First of all, Congratulations on being selected for the case study competition and getting to work on a project with a prof. Both will be great learning experiences.

Now, John Molson SB? Never heard of that one before... Why are you competing in there? How about case competition at Wharton, LSB, NUS, ISB or other IIMs?

Anyway, congratulations again. And hope you find a sponsor.
