Yahoo !!

Feeling a lot lighter after the 7th semester exams are dealt with. Also, not to forget the mighty CAT, and the stupid IIFT exams. I'm primarily calling IIFT stupid not just because I couldn't do well in it, but the exam was inherently very stupid. Right from the invigilator to the question paper, nothing was proper. The exam was a nightmare.. 150 questions in 120 minutes and that too the level wasn't so low. Anyways, what is gone, is gone. Luckily, CAT went well and expecting a few calls from the big ones. But the next big news is that I'm leaving with my friends to a Sikkim trip for about a week. Hope to have some great time over there. It was fun planning the whole thing, right from the itinerary to the budget, to noting down locations of ATMs and hotels that fit our budget. The tentative itinerary is as given below..
