Day 1 @ SPJIMR

The last time I came to Mumbai was during excursions organized by OG for Shivaji house in April 1999, technically in the last century. Arrived early morning at LTT , woke up when the train halted with a sudden jolt. Realized I was still asleep while the other passengers had already alighted. The AC coach attendant was throwing the blankets on the platform, amidst dust and trash. Yes , the same ones we used since last 2 days.
 The Uber driver raced through the streets while the city was waking up to the chirps. There it was – the place where I would spend the next year, the place that I’m really hoping to be proud of , after OG – SP Jain Institute of Management and Research.
The day went by seeing new faces, with familiar names. People had already started huddling in groups, with some had an eye for the PGDM. Have QM test scheduled tomorrow, and registrations early at 9.
Some chit chats, some bitching, lots of handshakes and a lot more laughter. Lets hope I can keep up this journal.

Good night, world. A new morning awaits.
