MBA Takeaways:


1. House and Home are two different things- Especially when it comes to your awesomely nice room, attached bathroom, cosy bed and other knick-knacks.
2. Value your Mom- You can't thank her enough for those delicious meals and ironed clothes.
3. Competition and peer pressure may turn you into a super ugly person unless you have an extremely strong value system- Case in point: "The most respected body on campus".
4. Unity is not strength- What works in a B-School most of the times, is "I, Me, Myself" !!
5. Midnight snacking is a way of life- You can't imagine how bad the 3 AM hunger pangs can get and now, without any Arcus, I only hope that my Mom doesn't ask me to hire a separate cook at home.
6. There will never be an answer to "Why MBA?"- It all boils down to one's own perspective in life (Ok, I did use my MBA Faffing technique here !!).
7. JIT rocks- No matter how hard you try, you always end up sticking to the sacredness of 11:59:59.
8. Plagiarism check is such a farce- Mostly because Cut Copy Paste and a dash of editing, does it all !!
9. Biological Clock is a thing of the past- Because this is one clock that adjusts itself the way you want it to: sleep at 5 AM, attend classes at 8:30 AM, skip breakfasts and lunches, have superbly greasy food and even then, it keeps ticking.
10. Employers do want to pay you well- At least well enough for you to buy good quality under-eye creams to get rid of those dark circles which are ugly enough to scare your clients away !!
