CAn'T :D

Been a long time since i wrote anything here. Why? Because it is that time of the year when many aspiring managers (more then half of them don't know what to do in life!!!!) try to bell the CAT and some do succeed and for those who don't , "There is always next year". For some other people like me it is a yearly thing. A day is reserved for it every year (well it takes 3 more , 1 to buy the form another to fill it and a 3rd to post :D). Every year it is the same old thing that "Its do or die , have to do it this time". It starts somwhere in may . You decide you'll start studying from june. In june its like why so early , lot of time left. Work keeps you busy in july and mid august. Appraisal blues in late august and begining of september. September end its like either here or there. October mocks scare the hell out of you by when you aren't even able to hit a 95 percentile. Before you know , it is november 1st jus 20 days to go and you are already thinking of next year CAT.But this time I tried something new. I tried to take sometime off and put my heart and soul into it. 3 weeks' leave(yeah!!! you do get lucky once in a while in software industry too ;)). I was sure I can make it. Wait a minute. What happens when a person a lazy person who has had to work his ass off 10 - 12 hrs a day all gets a 3 week leave out of the blue ??? I'll tell you. He'll give even kumbakarna a complex with his eat - sleep - eat routine. and I was no better. Wonder when i'll stop making IIMs richer sigh!!!!!!
