Day 5 - 1st July 2010

Surprisingly woke up early today. Didn't expect that to happen after yesterday's tennis session. Had the second part of our interpersonal communications session today. Had to discuss an interesting case within a group. There are 6 people stuck in a cave which is going to collapse and only one can be rescued. A brief writeup on each person was given and based on that there needed to be a consensus on which person should be saved. Pretty insightful findings came out from each of the groups, some of them even brought in the media angle, wherein the person rescued could be used by the media to garner support or generate sympathy. That was followed by another round of alumni interaction, one of them was from Virgin Mobile and another from Mudra. Both gave some interesting gyaan on what to expect over the next couple of years. Another interesting tidbit was that both of them found their respective spouses at MICA :-)

Was relatively free in the afternoon so went to the library to study a bit of OB. There is some pre reading and assignment work required before classes start next week. In the evening had a marathon tennis session - 3 hours! Was lots of fun and I even topped it up with 15 mins of basketball. All calories burnt because of that were however replenished thanks to Channa Bhatura being served for dinner at the mess :-P After dinner went for a walk around campus and also opened an account at Chota's. Apparently he has 1lakh 40 thousand credit pending from some of the seniors :-D. Since there was nothing much to do after that I am now sitting in the cool confines of the library. Will head back to the hostel in a while and call it a day.
