It Depends!

Well, I am amazed that I am writing this down. I thought I had no time to breathe. Well on second thoughts, that's how people like to think. It just makes you feel quite important .

Before you choose to think that I am a narcissist, I need to make my point. Just that everything in the surroundings that I am in now, happens so fast that it’s quite easy to confuse it with a dream.

There is always something or the other to do. Tasks always come with deadlines. Priority of work is never defined and hence a constant confusion. Sleep and socializing are science fiction here. And there is always a nagging question at the back of my mind. Why does it have to be like this? And all I get for an answer is the reiteration that, that's how an MBA is.

Well, I have no clue who started the concept and why it has to be like that. But people believe that surroundings like that of a B-school have the Midas touch and can somehow transform simple things into gold. Just follow the rules since you are on a treasure hunt and mind you, you chose to come for the hunt.

Now that the choice was mine, am I complaining? I am not sure and it really depends. The best thing about this place is that it all depends. That's the beautiful theory taught in almost all classes. The answer to everything is that it depends. So you never have to know the right answers. But for some weird reasons, it does not work in exams. And I think I know the answer to it. The working of the theory also depends.
