Reflections on past with my classmates.

We had a get together two weeks ago in Mumbai for our MMS 2 Yr Batch of 2001 IIPS.

Had a great time together catching up latest updates about everyone.

I was quite happy that everyone was doing quite well and settled. Compare this to 9 years ago when we were all CONFUSED a lot, uncertain where the future will take us. A constant question was "Will we have to depend on our parents money all the time? What a shame!!!!"

These last 9 years, I have understood one thing about Education in Indian colleges, its so far apart from the reality. I wish if that could be better. There was a suggestion that unless there are more people from Industry who come to Institutes and provide training there will always be this Industry - Institute divide.

There was one of us who got into training stuff. Dale Carnegie and all 9 yards. I was seriously flattered when he mentioned that I inspired him by scribbling a note along with a sketch of him, or perhaps that was the beer. :)

Note:

1) Later he confided that the book was Write Better/Speak Better by Readers Digest)

2) I believe, If someone owns the book he should be able to write notes/scribble on sidelines and putting marks on important stuff he finds, that makes that book even more precious.
