Of Farewells and Corporate Dinners ...

The blistering Ahmedabad heat, which refuses to subside till late in the evening, made a mockery of our corporate get up, as we, residents of D-13, finally got into the act and celebrated our Corpo-D, an elaborate celebration of the dorm culture of IIM-A. It certainly lived up to my expectations, as we experienced a throwback to the days of OM-3, albeit a much more enjoyable one, in the form of nailing the "pseudo-glam" post of dorm representive. "The Pride" shook, as facchhas fought it out for the chance to "participate" in OM3-2009, and thoroughly lived up to the reputation of D-13 being one of the noisiest of dorms.

It was the last gathering of all the dorm members, as since then, slowly the tucchhas have trickled out of the dorm, out of the campus and the city. D-13 looks forlorn, not even half as noisy as it once was.

As the last of the tucchhas leave, here's wishing them a heartfelt bright future and a sincerely optimistic wishful thinking that they make up for the downsized and sliced dreams at the placements this year.

For once the residents of D-'13' need some luck ...
