Its been a while since i made any new entry, almost 2 years. What has happened in my life since my last entry? Well...... took a job and had to move to Sydney, Australia, moved back to Bangalore India. Resigned from that job to pursue an MBA in Canada, completed the MBA and moved again to the OilSands of Canada.
Along the way, I met a lot of blokes who could count a lot higher than ten. Some of who had the potential to be the Captains of Industry and Leaders of Tomorrow. My friend circle changed, i now shared the room with Micheal Porter, Peter Drucker, Fobes and Bloomberg... well if not the person, at least with their publications.
Time progressed, i learnt a lot and I drank a lot. Went on a health kick, reclaimed my love for basketball and squash. Took part in an intramural basketball tournament; a bunch of out of shape 30 year olds outclassed by the younger, more athletic underclassmen. Wore a lot of suits, did a lot of models... "financial models", learnt to strategize and categorize everything in a 2x2 matrix, analyzed the world and did more finance. Got a lot of B's and drank a lot. Tried to start 2 companies and drank a lot. And so the year passed and it came time to say goodbye so we drank a lot, toasting the future.
The fun was over and it was time to move back into the real world. Armed with an MBA, a passport of international experience and an arsenal full of strategies, 2x2 matrices, industry and SWOT analysis, I was ready to conquer the world. I hopped on a train and headed out west in search of Black Gold. But alas, Lady Luck is on vacation since I have spent months on end staring at job boards, meeting ppl, writing and rewriting my resume and cover letters. All in the pursuit of a post MBA career.
